No one can know of my infatuation with her, not even Amy herself…

Amy

I'm being forced to marry a mafia lord called the Irish Demon to save my family.

Just when I've been coming to terms with my grandfather being a mob boss.

I've been recently diagnosed as autistic, and it's a life-changing discovery.

I'm not just shy or overly sensitive to sound. All my struggles that my family has dismissed have a valid neurological reason behind them.

I'm still learning how to navigate normal social interactions. How am I going to manage ones with the mafia, much less in marriage to a man who doesn't know me?

Especially when one slip-up could threaten my family's lives?

I've been obsessed with Amy Astero for years.

Tracking her movements, tapping her phone. I know almost everything about her, except for how she tastes.

I've convinced her eejit grandfather that we need to join families to complete a business deal.

And if he doesn't let me marry Amy?

Then his gambling son will pay the price since I own his debts.

But things are more complicated than I thought when I actually meet her.

I knew she was autistic, but I never fully understood what that meant until now. The sound sensitivities, how she misses social cues, the different way the world perceives her.

I'm the Irish Demon. I always get what I want. And what I want is for Amy Astero to be protected and spoiled rotten.

I know there's fire hidden inside my pretty girl.

And I plan on ensuring she's comfortable enough to let it out.
