But when he’s assassinated, she has no choice but to return—and to secure her safety, she must marry Dante Moretti, the cold, ruthless heir to a rival mafia family.

But as enemies close in and the lines between loyalty and betrayal blur, Alessandra discovers that beneath Dante’s icy exterior lies a man as haunted as she is. With war looming, their fragile bond is tested by secrets, blood, and the ghosts of their pasts. In a world where love is a weakness and trust can be fatal, will they survive long enough to find something worth fighting for?
