Twenty-one years ago, my mother stole me from a monster. Yesterday, I found out that monster is my father. Isadora Moretti has spent her entire life scraping by in the slums, hiding in the shadows, and watching her mother look over her shoulder. She thought they were just poor. She thought her father was dead. But when her mother dies, Isadora is left with a single, wax-sealed letter that shatters everything she knows. Her father isn’t dead. His name is Matteo Russo,the most ruthless, untouchable mafia king in the country. Now, Isadora is walking straight into the lion's den. She doesn't want his money. She doesn't want his crown. She wants the truth about her mother's death, and she wants revenge. But surviving Matteo’s world isn't easy. Thrust into a world of blood, betrayal, and billion-dollar secrets, Isadora is assigned a shadow: Dante. A cold, arrogant, dangerously handsome enforcer whose job is to keep her alive. Dante wants her gone. Isadora wants to burn his world to the ground. But when a rival family marks her as a target, a twisted contract forces them into a fake marriage to keep her safe. Trapped in a dangerous game of power, Isadora and Dante are forced to share the same roof and the same bed. But as their hatred turns into a slow, burning obsession, Isadora must decide: is Dante the only man she can trust, or is he the one holding the knife aimed at her back?
