Captive Audience: A Dark Irish Mafia Romance

We all know actions have consequences. I should’ve guessed spending one night with Rook O’Connell would come at a price. Asha As a true crime podcaster, I’ve made a career out of hunting monsters. But nothing prepared me for him. The moment our eyes lock, the brooding Irishman in the corner of the bar has me hooked—sharp suit, broad shoulders, and a smile that spells trouble. Rook O’Connell is the kind of man who could ruin me, and God help me, I might let him. One drink turns into a night I can’t forget and a trap I never saw coming. Now I’m stuck in a fake marriage to the most lethal man I’ve ever met, and he’s not letting me go until I solve the crime that shattered everything he loved. I don’t have a choice. If I want my life back, I have to crack the case. But with every scorching kiss and every wicked vow, Rook makes me question whether I want freedom—or him. Rook When my family was slaughtered, everything I built turned to ash and the last piece of my soul burned with it. Only two things keep me vengeance and an unhealthy obsession with a flame-haired podcaster I should’ve left alone. Asha Sparks is the only one who can find the killer I seek, but she’d never work with me. Not for money. Not for threats. Too bad for her, I always get what I want, and binding Asha to me in matrimonial bliss is the leverage I need to keep her close. But the longer she’s in my home, in my bed, under my skin... the more I crave her. Body. Mind. Soul. And the harder it becomes to remember this was ever a lie. to enemies to loversForced marriageOne-night stand with consequencesHe falls first“You’re mine now” energyPossessive Irish mobster heroTrue crime podcaster heroineTouch my wife and dieStalker tendenciesFound family
