She thinks this is a cage. She doesn't yet understand it's a crown.

He offered her a job in Rome, and gave her no choice but to take it.

She stayed because Sebastian Diamanti made it impossible to leave.

Sabrina Badalamenti is leverage. A carefully chosen pawn in a game of blood and revenge she never knew she was playing—delivered into the hands of the most dangerous man in Italy by her own father's sins.

Sebastian doesn't make promises.

He delivers consequences.

Heir to an empire built on diamonds and blood, he rules with an iron fist that crushes rivals and breaks men.

And he does not—under any circumstances—surrender.

Then Sabrina stopped flinching when he walked into a room and started fighting back.

Now she's wearing his ring, sleeping under his roof, and unraveling years of carefully constructed control.

He tells himself this is still the plan.

He tells himself he's still in control.

But a man truly in control doesn't find himself standing outside a woman's door at three in the morning, wondering if she's the ruin he deserves.

In his world, love is weakness.

In hers, it might be the only thing that destroys her.

Rome is full of beautiful ruins.

She's starting to think she's becoming one of them.

The only question is whether Sebastian Diamanti is the man who saves her—or the one who finishes what her father started.

Broken Crown is the second novel in the Diamanti Billionaire Dynasty Series, featuring a deeply possessive anti-hero, a heroine who refuses to stay broken, and a dark obsessive romance.
