Dark Devotion by Cora Kent

Resistance is futile; I will have Christine. With every breath she takes, she's one step closer to being mine. When she finally gives in, I'll leave her yearning for more. Dark Devotion takes place the night before the start of Dark Obsession. When Christine's mother dies, it leaves Niccolo with his eyes on the only prize remaining: her daughter. If you can't be the good guy, sometimes you have to play the villain. Note: Dark Devotion sets the scene for Niccolo and Christine's relationship in Dark Obsession.
