DrowningLove

Donna is drowning. Pushed into the swimming pool by her husband Eric and her own uncle Robert on her birthday, she watches the bubbles rise as her life slips away—and in her final seconds, she finally sees the truth she spent years running from: the only man who ever truly loved her was Nathan, the mafia boss she had desperately tried to escape by marrying Eric. Then she opens her eyes. She is back on her wedding day, moments before saying "I do." Reborn with the memory of her death still burning in her lungs, Donna sees Eric and her uncle's family for what they truly are—the smiling predators who traded her life for her inheritance. At the altar, in front of every guest, she refuses Eric. And when Nathan storms the wedding just as he did in her past life, this time Donna does not run. She walks straight into his arms. It is the beginning of a cold, careful war. Donna takes her place beside the crime lord as his wife and his partner, wielding her knowledge of the future to dismantle her enemies piece by piece. But as she digs into the truth, she discovers her parents' deaths were no accident—and the web of conspiracy reaches far deeper than Eric and her uncle alone. Every ally she thought she had is a suspect; every enemy hides another. What began as revenge becomes something else. In the shadows, between blood and danger, Donna and Nathan move from mutual use to hesitant trust, and from trust to a devotion neither expected. With her enemies closing in and the truth of her parents' murder finally within reach, Donna must decide how far she is willing to go—and what she is willing to lose to protect the man who has become her only home. This time, she refuses to die again. This time, she will make them pay.
