Debt isn’t paid in dollars. It’s paid in blood, bone, and skin. In the shadow of the Boston Syndicate, Seraphina Vale is no longer a daughter—she is a "Living Asset." Traded by her father to settle a Sovereign Debt, she has been surrendered to the most feared man in the district: Ciaran Doyle, the "Butcher." He is twenty years her senior. A man of cold violence and lethal silence. He doesn't want a partner; he wants a transaction. But the law of the Syndicate is absolute: the debt is only cleared once a pregnancy is confirmed. If Seraphina fails to produce an heir within the year, her life is forfeit. One night was supposed to seal the deal. One night was supposed to be business. But when the test comes back positive, the gilded cage of the Obsidian Estate becomes a fortress under siege. Seraphina isn't just a wife anymore—she is the ultimate target. As rival families move in to claim the Doyle legacy, the "Butcher" must decide if he’s protecting a contract, or the woman who has finally given him something to lose. The rules of the game have changed: Forced Proximity: Trapped in a glass manor on the Maine coast with a man who hates his own desire. Age Gap Tension: A seasoned killer meeting his match in a cynical socialite who refuses to bend. Lethal Stakes: An accidental pregnancy that turns a business arrangement into a declaration of war. The Price of His Name is a high-heat, dark mafia romance dripping with gothic atmosphere and "burn-the-world-down" possessiveness. If you crave morally grey heroes, accidental pregnancy tropes, and high-stakes intensity, your next obsession starts here.
