Everyone knows Roman DeLuca.
They call him The Quiet Devil. Ruthless. Feared. Unforgiving. A mafia boss who doesn’t need a voice to command a room—or order someone’s death.
Roman hasn’t spoken since an assassination attempt stole his voice at seventeen. Now, he communicates with his hands, surrounded by men who know better than to mistake his silence for weakness.
And Aria Moretti has just been promised to him.
Terrified of the man she’s been raised to fear, Aria enters their arranged marriage with one advantage Roman doesn’t know she has: She understands every word he says.
Fluent in sign language, Aria pretends otherwise. If Roman believes his new wife can’t understand the conversations happening around her, maybe she’ll learn enough to protect herself.
Except Roman DeLuca isn’t the monster she expected. He’s patient with her. Gentle when he has no reason to be. Protective in a way Aria doesn’t know how to trust. And dangerously, unapologetically obsessed with his new wife. The longer they’re married, the harder it becomes for Aria to keep lying.
But her little deception isn’t the secret that could destroy them.
Aria left her sister behind in her father’s house. And while she is slowly discovering that the Quiet Devil might be the safest man she’s ever known, the person she loves most is still trapped with the one she fears most.
Soon, Aria will have to decide whether to keep protecting the secret she’s carried since childhood... or place it in the hands of a devil who would burn the world down for his wife.
The Quiet Devil is a short arranged marriage mafia romance featuring a disabled MMC, a wounded FMC, an obsessed husband, forced proximity, and hidden secrets.
