Monster in Disguise - Paperback

by Veronica Lancet (Author)

He's her husband. and her worst nightmare...

At eighteen, Catalina Agosti's life is changed forever by an unexpected pregnancy. Cast out by her family, she's forced to live in isolation in a convent. For ten long years, she devotes herself to raising her daughter behind those suffocating walls, dreaming of a life she'll never have.

But when a string of brutal and sadistic murders threatens the convent, Catalina comes to a terrifying realization: someone is hunting her.

Her only chance at survival is to turn to Marcello Lastra-the cold, mysterious head of the Lastra crime family. Desperate to protect her daughter, she strikes a chilling bargain: her hand in marriage in exchange for protection.

But Marcello has one unbreakable rule. He abhors human touch. Their marriage would be one in name only, and Catalina must promise to never touch him.

As she swaps the prison of the convent for the gilded cage of the Lastra manor, Catalina finds herself trapped again, surrounded by danger and dark secrets.

The killer is closing in, and she doesn't know who to trust. Is her new husband her protector or is he a monster in disguise?
