THE RUIN HE CHOSE
0·Lisa_writesZayn Di Laurentiis, the devastatingly handsome heir to a powerful Mafia empire, must marry before he can become the next Don. After watching his father destroy his mother, Zayn vowed never to trap a woman in a loveless marriage. But with his inheritance at stake, he has no choice but to find a fake fiancée. Then Aurelia walks into his life like a blade wrapped in silk. After she takes down Zayn’s head of security in seconds—and a background check reveals a spotless record—Zayn decides she is exactly the woman he needs: someone convincing enough to play his devoted fiancée and dangerous enough to protect herself. To the outside world, they are an inseparable couple deeply in love. Behind closed doors, Aurelia guards Zayn’s back while he signs the deadly deals that keep his empire alive. But their entire relationship is built on a lie. Vincenzo Greco—the man who brutally murdered Zayn’s mother—took Aurelia off the streets when she was a teenager and trained her to become a ruthless weapon. Now he has sent her to infiltrate Zayn’s inner circle, steal the criminal ledger that could destroy the Di Laurentiis family, and hand him the empire. Aurelia never expected Zayn to treat her like a person instead of a tool. He cares for her, protects her, and trusts her with secrets he will not even share with his own brother. As she sleeps in his bed and fights by his side, the line between deception and desire begins to disappear. Then Aurelia finds the ledger—and something far more dangerous: the truth about her parents, who once worked within the Di Laurentiis drug empire. Even worse, the man who holds her at night is hiding a dark secret connected to their deaths. Vincenzo wants Zayn’s empire. Zayn wants Aurelia’s heart. But Aurelia wants revenge. Torn between handing over the ledger and watching Zayn burn, Aurelia must decide whether to complete the mission she was raised for—or betray the only man who has ever made her feel human. Because she has finally realized something terrifying: She no longer wants to destroy Zayn Di Laurentiis. She wants him.
