Rico was a street hustler, sharp-eyed and quick-handed, living day to day in the underbelly of the city. He never believed in fairy tales or happy endings—survival was the only story he knew. That was until he crossed paths with Isabella, the breathtaking daughter of Don Salvatore, a ruthless billionaire drug lord whose empire stretched across continents. Isabella was a forbidden dream: untouchable, elegant, and surrounded by guards who would kill without blinking. For the first time in his life, Rico’s heart betrayed his hustler’s instincts, pulling him into a dangerous desire he couldn’t confess.

She works tirelessly to support her younger siblings after the death of their father, surviving on very little yet radiating a strength and dignity that captivates Adrian.
