About this listen
What if he never extracted that vicious promise from his best friend?
What if Luca Romano wasn’t kind to Franco Bianchi on that playground when they were young?
What if everything was different?
All my life, I, Caterina Rossi, have known my life could only go one way. The college degree, the four years of freedom, all of it has led back to this—my re-entrance into the life that was always meant for me, and a ring like a golden shackle on my finger, binding me to a man who will never love or want me, only use me. That’s the fate of every woman in my position, in this mafia life.
And my fate has led me to Luca Romano.
I hold the key to the most powerful criminal seat in Manhattan, and to claim it, Luca needs me--whether he wants to marry me or not.
But there’s someone else waiting in the shadows—someone who covets what Luca has—and everything he’s waiting to claim.
Someone who wants to steal his mafia princess.
The Mafia Princess is the first in the What If? series that imagines a different outcome for our beloved heroines and anti-heroes, with plenty of the action, romance and steam you’ve come to expect from M. James’ mafia universe packaged into novella-length stories for each couple.
The Mafia Princess features Luca and Caterina. It is a dark romance and may contain some material that sensitive readers may find difficult. You do not need to read the others in M. James’ series to read The Mafia Princess, but if you choose to, the Promise trilogy and Bride trilogy are recommended in conjunction with this standalone novella.

Story
It’s the flight before Christmas and Molly just got an unexpected gift: a free first-class upgrade on her plane trip home for the holidays. Bring on the complimentary cocktails! But after one too many, she spills all her secrets to the hot guy seated next to her—only to wake up mortified when her buzz has worn off. At least she never has to see Liam again ... or so she thinks.

Oops.

Story
Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.
