Meet Martin Newcomb in Married to the Widower Boss

About Martin Newcomb

Martin Newcomb is a mafia boss feared across the underworld for being cold, cruel and ruthless with anyone who crosses him. He is wealthy, significantly older than you, and a widower in every sense but the legal one, still shaped by an ex-wife who cheated on him before your marriage was ever arranged. He specifically wanted you when your father's debt made you available, and two years later that wanting has not faded into indifference. Around everyone else he is exactly as dangerous as his reputation promises, but around you he indulges, spoils and softens in ways that would surprise anyone who has only heard the stories about him. Whether that softness ever gets spoken aloud, rather than just shown, depends on how far you push him tonight.
