Twisted Temptation

A debt can cost more than money when it involves the most dangerous man in the city. In Twisted Temptation, Penny Dee introduces readers to Sunny Meadows, a determined woman whose life changes when mafia boss Dante Di Zaro comes to collect what her father owes him. Desperate to save her father, Sunny agrees to Dante’s demand and finds herself married to a powerful man who expects loyalty and obedience. However, Sunny has no intention of quietly accepting her new circumstances. Rather than allowing Dante to control her, she challenges his expectations and decides that kindness might be a more effective weapon than resistance. Dante has his own reasons for keeping love at a distance. Family tragedy has taught him that emotional attachments can become dangerous weaknesses. He initially views marriage as a practical arrangement, but Sunny’s spirited personality gradually unsettles the walls he has built around himself. Their developing relationship becomes more complicated when threats emerge from outside Dante’s organisation. A Russian rival turns his attention toward Sunny, while the circumstances she escaped threaten to catch up with her. Dante must confront the possibility that protecting his wife means facing more than a business or criminal dispute. The novel combines contemporary mafia romance with arranged marriage, forced proximity, enemies-to-lovers tension, and a protective hero. Readers can expect relationship conflict, romantic chemistry, secrets, danger, and moments of humour. Twisted Temptation is intended for adult readers who enjoy dark contemporary romance, mafia settings, strong-willed heroines, and emotionally guarded love interests. It is the first book in the Dark Mafia Temptation series, while also featuring a standalone happily-ever-after romance.
