Ties that Bind Us by Nicole Knight digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A steamy arranged marriage, enemies-to-lovers, mafia romance perfect for fans of Ana Huang and L.J. Shen.

From strangers to lovers, from enemies to family, from mafia princess to . . . mafia wife?

Ava Moretti is a mafia princess with a fiery personality and an aversion to doing what she's told. Nick Caponelli is next in line to lead the Caponelli mafia—he’s used to getting exactly what he wants. When they meet by chance one night, neither has any idea they are from rival crime families. After a night of passion, they are supposed to part ways and never see each other again. But fate has bigger plans, and soon Ava must make a decision that will change her life forever. What comes first: love or family?

For fans of Ana Huang, Rhenna Morgan, and L.J. Shen, Nicole Knight’s steamy, intense, and action-packed mafia romance begins the Caponelli saga, in which Ava Moretti must face both her dreams and her fears as she weds mafia boss Nick Caponelli.

“*Listening copy provided via NetGalley for an honest review* Nick and Ava are meet out in the wild and have a steamy hookup where Ava dips out after and never plans on seeing Nick again….until their father’s (both heads of their respective crime families) arrange a marriage to bring the families together. But is it a marriage between Ava and Nick or….? This is a definite story of instalove, so if that’s not your thing, you might not be a fan. I personally ended up liking it a lot. There’s a ton of family drama too. I enjoyed the audio. The narrators were pretty good. The story was enjoyable as well. Thanks to NetGalley, Nicole Knight, and Dreamscape Media for the review copy!”
Beaming Face with Smiling Eyes“Easily 5 stars but took off half a star for no miscarriage/child loss trigger warning.”
