In his world of shadows and violence, she was the only light. Aria was invisible—a hotel maid scraping by, dreaming of a better life. Until one night, she caught the attention of Adrian Voss, the most feared mafia boss in the city. One kiss in his penthouse changed everything, pulling her into a dangerous game she never knew she was playing. Adrian doesn't just want her—he claims her as his own, his beautiful, fragile rose in a world of thorns. But roses have secrets too. When Aria discovers Adrian's engagement to the deadly Isabella Montenegro, her world shatters. She's pregnant with the child of a man who belongs to someone else, carrying the heir to a criminal empire that could destroy them both. Now she's running, hiding the most dangerous secret of all—while Adrian tears the underworld apart searching for his lost rose. Isabella will kill to keep her throne. Adrian will burn everything to reclaim what's his. And Aria must protect the innocent life inside her from the darkness that threatens to consume them all. Sometimes the most fragile things are worth fighting for. Warning: Contains mature themes, violence, steamy scenes, and a possessive mafia king who will do anything to protect his rose.
