<p style="margin-bottom: 1.2em;">Bound By Hatred is based on Cora Reilly’s third book in the Born In Blood Mafia Chronicles. Gianna is the Scuderi family’s little princess, but all she has ever wanted is freedom. She wants freedom from her father’s demand that she marry into the Famiglia, but she also wants to escape the bloodshed and everything her sister has been forced to endure. Gianna has already seen what kind of monsters these men can be.</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 1.2em;">Her family has other plans. They force Gianna into marriage with Matteo Vitiello, a ruthless killer who wants her all to himself. Known throughout the Famiglia as the God of Blades, Matteo is also the younger brother of the man who robbed Gianna’s sister of her virginity. While Gianna remains powerless to help Aria, Luca Vitiello seems ready to claim her older sister completely.</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 1.2em;">No matter how many times Gianna says no, Matteo always finds a reason to pull her back to him.
