"He is my drug, addiction, rehab and the only antidote to cure this irrevocable sickness running through my veins" She'd always had a one track mind: Find the perfect husband. It shouldn't have been hard, she was everything a made man wanted. She was the daughter of the Capo, docile and polite, undisputedly beautiful and the girl every man wanted.

The whispered words of the mythological legend her beauty created were echoed from every corner of the underworld. The untouchable Mafia Principessa was a modern day Psyche. There was only one man in the Underworld who didn't want her, or to know anything of this abstract belle. Vincenzo Salvatore. The most infamous playboy on the East Coast and heir to The New York Borgata. He had acquired her hand through the need to protect his syndicate and that's all the beloved Cremonesi girl would be to him: a business deal. It was done. The year Aurora would turn eighteen she would wed Vincenzo and become his wife. But when the four years of waiting are up and Vincenzo returns for his Principessa she is gone. Replace by a woman with hateful, serpentine eyes and a heart so cold you'd freeze to death before getting the chance to thaw it. He hadn't spared her a glance all those years ago but now, The Evil Queen he'd take home with him piqued his interest. He wanted her. She hated him. So he'd sworn to break her. To delve into her past and find out why she hated him, why the Princess turned to the dark side and she vowed to kill him. Slowly. To make everyday they shared a bed the nightmare of his life. But in a world dominated by men, what would become of a Queen who'd lost her King? BOOK I OF SERPENTS AND SAVIOURS MAFIA CHRONICLES (can be read as a stand-alone)
