The Cartel's Bride

She was meant to be nothing more than a bargaining chip.
He was the ruthless cartel king who swore he'd never love.

Hortensia has always been the perfect daughter—obedient, gentle, and raised to be useful. When her family trades her away to seal an alliance with Medellín's most feared cartel boss, she becomes a prisoner of power… and of a man she should never want.

Sebastian was born in blood. The bastard son of a prostitute and the cartel's former leader, he clawed his way to the throne through violence and betrayal. Cold. Merciless. Untouchable. Nothing and no one has ever shaken him—until her.

He demands her submission. He expects her silence. But Hortensia's spirit refuses to break.

Every glance ignites a war between them. Every touch burns hotter than the danger surrounding them. And in a world ruled by jealousy, power, and revenge, the most forbidden thing of all begins to take root: love.

If he falls, the cartel won't be his greatest risk.
It will be the heart of the woman he was never meant to claim.
