The Don's Forbidden Counsel

Mara Quinn, a brilliant law student forced to drop out by her mother's illness, catches her boyfriend Lucas cheating with her stepsister—then takes refuge with a dangerous stranger, Adrian Vale. By morning, she learns he is Lucas's father and the Don of one of New York's most feared crime families. Pulled into a war between the Vales and a Russian syndicate, Mara uses her legal mind to expose traps, freeze criminal finances, and become Adrian's trusted counsel.
