"In a world of danger and deception, who can you dare to love?"

Natalia Moretti lives a gilded life, heiress to a powerful mafia dynasty. But beneath the glitz, she yearns for freedom from her father's oppressive control and arranged future. Natalia lives under the restrictions of being a mafia princess and the sheltered cage of luxury she's enclosed within.

Leonardo Delacruz is a dangerous and alluring outsider, notorious for his ruthless reputation. But beneath the lethal exterior lies clever wit and roguish charm. With his sharp features and imposing frame, Leonardo exudes an aura of power and danger. He is not a man to be trifled with.

When Natalia's defiant eyes meet Leonardo's across a crowded casino floor, it's electric - she's immediately drawn to his rugged magnetism despite the risks. Leonardo tries to resist, but cannot deny the fierce desire brewing between them.

Against all reason, forbidden nights of passion ignite as Natalia and Leonardo steal away to indulge their feverish attraction. But when word of their affair gets back to Natalia's mafia family, it ignites chaos within the warring clans.

With their defiant love suddenly under attack, Natalia and Leonardo must fight against vengeful forces scheming to tear them apart. For two wild hearts yearning to be free, it's a race against time to outrun the dangerous legacies of the past and protect a love worth risking everything for.

But will defying such powerful forces spell their doom? Or can love truly conquer generations of hatred?

With its steamy encounters, witty banter, and unexpected twists, this Standalone will set your kindle on fire.

The storyline was rough and there were LOTS of errors that should have been edited. It felt like a rough draft of a half decent book. I liked the ending though

Meh

This book gave me a headache. I wanted so badly to keep up with the age difference and the inconsistencies with a teenager that's been sheltered but is somehow skilled enough to disarm skilled made men. I wanted so bad for this book to at least have a worthy ending. I absolutely hate the ending. The book had a lot of potential, and the ending killed it.

This may have been one of the toughest books I’ve read I should have DNF it …the ideal of the story was good but execution wasn’t… like I understood it was a mafia romance but wasn’t too sure if there was supposed be an age gap between the MC..I absolutely didn’t like the way it was written by the time I reach 80% I pretty much just skimmed through it…n it was an awful ending

I highlighted notes in this book to point out all the inconsistencies. The story isn't original and poorly edited. With the poor editing made it hard to read. I'd say the only contribution this book has for me was adding to my count and I still very nearly DNF'd.

I read like 1 1/2 chapters and stopped. Phrases were repeated 5 or 6 times. Also I felt like the story jumped and one second the characters are outside then they are in a hallway. The MMC falls in love with her instantly but it isn't in like an intriguing way. It was annoying and not for me.
