A dark romantic comedy featuring a marriage of convenience, hilarious banter, and a morally gray hero with "touch her and die" energy--perfect for fans of Brynne Weaver and Navessa Allen. What do you get when you put a clueless waitress, a dead bride, and half of the FBI's most wanted in a room? Daisy Turner's nightmare. When she signed up to serve a high-end, ultra-private wedding, she figured she'd see some famous faces, snack on some canapés, and leave with a stack of cash. Walking in on a dead bride was not on her bingo card for the night. Turns out the wedding is an arranged marriage involving one of the most dangerous crime families in New York. And nothing says you're screwed like becoming an accomplice to a mafia murder. Okay, not an accomplice but definitely a witness ... the only witness. Bolting out of the room with a quiet "excuse me" doesn't seem to be cutting it with the clearly angry and ruggedly handsome soon-to-be husband, Guilio La Rosa. Fully anticipating being "taken care of" herself, Daisy is shocked when Guilio instead gives her an ultimatum. Marry him. The or die is implied. What's a girl to do? Marriages can be annulled, but there's no coming back from death ...
