Clemenza Family Book 2
He swore he’d make me pay. But I’ve found his weakness. And I’ll never let him break me.
The first time he chained me, it wasn’t my choice. This time, it is.
Because I have a collar for him too.
A choke-chain to bring him to heel.
And I have a plan to claim my throne…even if I have to crawl back to him to do it.
Every night he takes me into his bed. And every night I let him punish me for leaving him.
I came back to win. I’m staying because I can’t go.
He’s still the only thing standing between me and whoever wants me dead.
Losing him would end me.
Letting him break me might be worse.
This is Book 2 of a dark romance trilogy following the same couple and ends on a cliffhanger. Expect captivity, obsession, possessiveness, toxic dynamics, and all the red flags. These antiheroes will earn their happily ever after, but they’ll have to fight hard to get there.
