About this book
Serafina is a mafia princess raised to be a pawn, promised to a man who represents her family’s future. However, her life descends into chaos when she catches the attention of Adrian Salvatore—a reckless, merciless, and dangerously magnetic man who refuses to play by the rules. What begins as a stolen moment at her engagement party spirals into a web of obsession, vengeance, and broken boundaries. After a single, unforgivable mistake ruins her virtue and shatters her family’s honor, Serafina finds herself bound to the very man who set out to destroy her. Adrian is a catastrophe in an expensive suit, a ruthless monster who doesn’t believe in love, only in taking what he wants. As their lives become inextricably linked through an arranged marriage built on lies, Serafina must navigate a treacherous landscape of mafia politics and raw, volatile chemistry. Featuring the classic enemies-to-lovers trope, this dark and twisted tale explores the thin line between hate and a consuming, destructive obsession. As tension crackles between them, Serafina discovers that while Adrian promised to break her, the fire between them might just consume them both. Can she survive the monster, or will she be lost in his dark design?

0A great mafia read
Image 104: A 1x1 image, likely be a tacker probe Amazon Customer](javascript:void(0)) 5 out of 5 stars A great mafia read Bound by Lies completely wrecked me in the best possible way. This book feels like silk gloves wrapped around brass knuckles: beautiful, brutal, and impossible to look away from. Serafina was such a compelling FMC. She’s trapped between duty, family loyalty, and the kind of obsession that stains everything it touches. Watching her unravel under Adrian’s attention had me clutching my Kindle like it owed me money. She’s soft without being weak, and every choice she makes carries emotional shrapnel. And Adrian Salvatore? That man is a catastrophe in an expensive suit. 🖤 He’s cruel, possessive, manipulative, and somehow still magnetic enough to make you understand exactly why Serafina can’t escape him. Every scene between them crackled with tension like a lit fuse crawling toward dynamite. The arranged marriage drama. The betrayal. The obsession disguised as hatred. The mafia politics dripping in danger and decadence. It all blended into this addictive spiral where every chapter felt darker and more intoxicating than the last. Lylah James wrote a romance that doesn’t ask permission before dragging you into the fire. If you love dark mafia romance with obsessive antiheroes, emotional devastation, twisted family dynamics, and chemistry sharp enough to cut glass, this book delivers all of it with blood-red ribbons on top. I’m already emotionally preparing for the next book because this ending left me staring at the wall like I survived a car crash in slow motion.

See all formats and editions From Amazon bestselling author Lylah James comes a new dark, arranged-marriage romance about a mafia princess and the cruel man who did everything to ruin her in an effort to make her…his. For the longest time, I had been a pawn between two empires built on blood. I had been promised to Matteo, who was supposed to be my future. But it was his brother who ruined me. Adrian Salvatore—reckless, merciless, carved from sin and evil. The brother no one dared to control. The one who looked at me like I was always meant to be…his. He stole my first kiss beneath the moonlight, right there at my engagement party. And he never stopped. Not when I begged. Not when I threatened. Until one night… One mistake. One unforgivable moment that shattered everything I was raised to protect. My modesty, my virtue, my family’s honor. Somehow I found myself bound to Adrian in ways I never wanted. But he didn’t believe in love. Everything he had ever done was driven by vengeance. Adrian wasn’t going to protect me. Instead, he had promised to break me. Somewhere between the hate and fear became a reckless obsession. And with that obsession came more destruction. We were both damned, but only one of us would survive the monster we’d become. BOUND BY LIES is book one in the dark and twisted FATAL ALLIANCES series. Please read the author's note at the beginning of the book. ) Previous slide of product details 1.
