About Bound by Duty
Based on the novel by Cora Reilly. As the heir to the Chicago mafia, Dante is logical to a fault. The only thing Valentina has in common with him is being a widow. When Dante chooses her as his next wife, it's a business decision made by a man still haunted from losing the love of his life. But Valentina won't repeat the lovelessness of her first marriage. As she struggles with her own desire for her new husband, little does she know -- his heart may have already started beating for her.
