Kendall Rossi isn't your average thirteen-year-old girl. At the young age of five her brothers dropped her off at an old orphanage which they claimed would be way safer and more practical than living with them and their Italian mafia problems. That wasn't the case. For years Kendall was switching from foster family to foster family. Some were sweet, some just needed the cash, and some had awful intentions. Like Gaston Tremblay, her current foster father. A couple years after the Rossi brothers left Kendall, they realized how much they craved and needed the little girl's bubbly and joyful personality in their life. They spent three full years trying to find Kendall but there was no trace of her. They eventually gave up and adopted a little girl around the age of eleven who would have been two years older than Kendall at the time. May, the little girl did help tie the broken family together, but it still wasn't the same, but they learned to cope and almost fully erased Kendall out of their lives. Until Alessandro Rossi the eldest of the brothers received a shocking phone call that would soon change their lives.

"As you exit through that doorway, you leave from my life as well," I declared while maintaining an unwavering gaze. Love had dissipated entirely, leaving behind a void where once cherished memories had resided. In their stead, a storm of anger, hatred, and disgust now raged. He regarded me with a disbelieving expression as if my words were too incredulous to fathom. "I'm sorry, please give me the opportunity to be a father to Dah-" "Leave!" I uttered in a dangerously subdued tone. He did not merit the title of father. In truth, he did not warrant existence at all. Do you know why? Because he had robbed me of everything: my innocence, my happiness, my education, my teenage years, and my family. Everything. He was a monstrous presence, and my daughter would never address him as 'daddy.' Allow me to introduce you to Tori Donovan, a 22-year-old woman who grapples with the challenge of providing her 4-year-old daughter with the best possible life. Her past has been fraught with hardship, yet she has admirably shielded her daughter, Dahlia, from its adverse effects, diligently assuming the roles of both mother and father. Now, let me acquaint you with Ian Weizmann, the man who impregnated Tori at the tender age of 18 and subsequently absconded from his responsibilities. He is affluent, remarkably handsome, and occupies the position of CEO at Weizmann Corporation. What transpires when he unexpectedly crosses paths with a four-year-old girl in a shopping mall who bears an uncanny resemblance to his high school sweetheart? Embark on a journey with Ian, Tori, and, most certainly, the enigmatic baby Dahlia.

(18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT) "I'm good at other things too, sweetheart," His voice was gruff and husky, my lips unconsciously parting in a daze. He's standing dangerously close to me, trapping me between him and my cupboards. The tension is suffocating and thick, my brain seemingly unable to produce simple words for a slight second. But the seduction emerges after a moment, "I think you're just egotistical." It comes out as a whisper and my lips teasingly curl into a small, challenging smile. He quirks his brows at this, setting the glass down with a clink and placing both of his hands on either side of me. "I'm happy to show you." *** Adaline Berkeley is a twenty-three year old, young divorcee, recently catching her husband's infidelity.
