Because I Need You by Claire Contreras

I really am enjoying the Because Series.

This couple is Gio and Isabel.

Isabel’s life is thrown by the death of her father. Who she once thought was just a painter…but learned so much more. While meeting with his lawyers, she finds out that she is married to a man she never met…never realizing she signed a marriage license.

Gio is part of the mafia family (Cat from book 1’s brother). He is thrown when told he is married. They discuss that he is to stay married to get something that Isabel’s father had.

Twist and turns. This is an arranged marriage, not quiet enemies to lovers, mafia love story.

I can’t wait to dive more into the Because series!

Another awesome read by Ms. Claire! This series is just getting better and better! Again, I listened to the audio along with reading on my Kindle, and so far the narrators that have been chosen are excellent!!❤️‍

Giovanni is my husband in the dark romance genre and Isabelle will have to learn to share. I didn't really like her way to much but her husband ...
