Married to the Blind Mafia Heir

Reunited with her biological parents at twenty-one, Ivy Rossi thinks she has finally found a home, only to discover they favor their adopted daughter, Victoria. Two years later, New York mafia heir Luca Moretti is ambushed, leaving him blind and temporarily unable to walk. Victoria, once eager to marry him, immediately backs out. Their father, desperate to retain the Morettis’ protection after embezzling family funds, forces Ivy to take her place. Able to read minds at close range since falling into the water as a child, Ivy sees through their scheme and agrees only after insisting that the $1 million marriage gift remain in her own name. On their wedding night, Luca coldly orders Ivy away, while secretly longing for her scent and closeness. She gradually discovers that the man everyone fears is afraid of pain and abandonment. She helps with his recovery, looks after his meals, and holds his hand when nightmares wake him. He publicly defends her, letting her experience what it means to be chosen. As his recovery becomes possible, Victoria wants her place back. Using Ivy’s adoptive mother’s silver necklace as bait, she locks Ivy in a basement, then enters the estate with stolen care records. By mimicking Ivy’s scent, she claims credit for six weeks of care. When Ivy escapes and arrives, she hears Luca agree to arrange another wedding. In truth, Luca is playing along to keep Victoria there and uncover clues to Ivy’s whereabouts while Frank leads a search for his wife. Once the plot is exposed, the Rossi family loses the Morettis’ protection. Ivy, however, fears Luca only needs her because of his injuries and tries to return the money and end their marriage. She finally reveals her mind-reading ability, and Luca puts aside his pride, making sincere promises to convince her to stay. Certain of their feelings, they hold a new wedding of their own. Ivy recovers her adoptive mother’s keepsake and finally finds a family that truly respects her.
