There are men who should be forbidden… And there are women who are born to break the rules.
Francesco Tori is the heir to a private security empire in New York. Cold, controlling, and scarred by the loss of his mother and brother, he has built insurmountable walls around himself. But when his father introduces him to his new fiancée —Isabella Valverde, a Latina businesswoman with a humble past… and a daughter—, the spark of chaos ignites.
Ariana Valverde isn't looking for drama. She is only trying to survive in the elitist world into which she was unceremoniously thrown. But when the past returns with force, she will find refuge in the most unexpected hands… and perhaps something more.
Between them, an attraction as tense as it is inevitable flares up… and in the middle stands Lorenzo Bianchi, a charismatic photography professor and old friend of Francesco’s, who seems to see much more than talent in Ariana.
An addictive novel of forbidden romance, power, unresolved traumas, and connections that break all the rules. Ideal for readers who love emotional love triangles, family drama, and characters who burn beneath the surface.
