Brutal Vows 

Sophia walks into the scariest office in Rome and basically negotiates her own marriage contract — “keep only me” energy from page one, and honestly? Icon behavior. Luca Vitale is giving cold, closed-off Don who’s spent fifteen years building walls, and naturally the one thing that cracks him is a twenty-four-year-old lit student who’s made herself at home in his library like she owns the place. Debt-marriage into obsession into “the enemy made her a target and now Luca’s going to burn it all down” — that’s a full arc in one blurb. We don’t have the receipts on intensity yet since this one’s light on reviews, so go in with eyes open, but the bones here are exactly what dark mafia romance readers show up for.

Book Description

Her father’s debt. Her only way out.

When Sophia Marchetti walks into the office of Rome’s most feared mafia Don, she has nothing to offer except herself — and one non-negotiable condition: if Luca Vitale wants a wife, he will keep only her.

She expects a monster. She gets something far more dangerous.

Cold, brutal, and untouchable, Luca has spent fifteen years building walls around everything he values. He doesn’t need a wife. He doesn’t need anyone. And he certainly doesn’t need to keep finding reasons to walk past a library where a twenty-four-year-old literature student has made herself at home in his world like she was always supposed to be there.

She wasn’t supposed to matter.

She does.

But Sophia has walked into a war she doesn’t know is being fought — and when the enemy decides she’s the weapon that will bring Luca to his knees, she’ll need every ounce of the intelligence, composure, and nerve that got her through his door in the first place.

Because Luca Vitale is coming for her.

And God help the men who made that necessary.

Content Warnings

The central relationship starts from coercion — the heroine enters the marriage to pay off her father's debt, and the hero is described as a "monster"-coded mafia boss with obsessive, possessive tendencies. Expect power-dynamic and toxic-relationship threads baked into the setup, plus mafia-adjacent violence (an active "enemy" plot puts the heroine in danger). No confirmed detail on physical/sexual content, since no reader reviews were available — treat these as inferred, not verified.
