Mia Collins wasn't looking for trouble when she arrived in a quiet Italian mountain town-she was looking for a fresh start. A simple life. A place where no one asked questions. Working at Caffè Ferraro, she keeps to herself, careful not to let anyone get too close. But Lorenzo Moretti sees what others don't. Silent. Watchful. Dangerous. Enzo is a man who's spent his life in the shadows, his hands stained with the kind of sins that can't be washed away. He shouldn't care about the wary-eyed waitress who flinches at loud noises and avoids conversations about the past. He tells himself he doesn't. Until the day he does. When Mia's past starts creeping closer, Enzo knows he should walk away. But the problem with men like him? Once they decide to protect something, they don't stop until the threat is gone. And Enzo has never failed a job. But Mia isn't a job. And this time, protecting what's his might cost him everything-including what little of his soul he has left. Some men are meant for violence. Some women are meant to run. And some loves are written in blood.

She's survived everything - except family. Grace has spent her life outrunning the past: a childhood of scars, the system that failed her, and an ex who nearly destroyed her. At twenty-four, she's finally free - until a DNA test reveals a half-sister she never knew, and an invitation to a town where blood runs thick and the rules are written in chrome and loyalty. Her brothers don't want her there. Their motorcycle club doesn't trust her. And Ash - tattooed, ice-eyed, and unreadable - keeps his distance. Until he doesn't. Because the moment Grace starts to matter, everything shifts. Tensions rise, threats surface, and Ash finds himself crossing lines he swore he wouldn't - especially for someone like her. She's survived the worst the world could throw at her. But in a place where trust is earned in bruises and belonging is paid for in blood, learning to be protected might be the one thing that breaks her. -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- Very slow burn - don't say I didn't warn you! But worth it, I promise. Enemies to lovers vibes. Intended for audiences 18+

Finn: As secretary of the Iron Skulls MC, a one-percenter club, I'm the smart one. The strategist. The man who holds the brotherhood together with laws and loyalty. Then I crash my Harley, and ER nurse Riley Morgan stitches me up without an ounce of fear. She's all sharp wit and a code of ethics that should make her run from a man like me. Instead, she stands up to the cops for me, looks past my leather cut, and sees the man beneath. She's a complication I can't afford and a temptation I can't resist. But my world has rules. To make her mine, the club demands a brutal, archaic tradition-a price that will cost her more than her dignity. Now I'm caught between the brotherhood that raised me and the woman who is redefining my soul. They say no woman is worth a war. They haven't met Riley.

When a girl with a gun and a binder walks into Raven's Ridge, she doesn't come to play. She comes with algorithms, a muffin tray, and a mind sharp enough to dissect a man without ever lifting a blade. But when her silence draws the attention of the Men of Iron, she becomes more than a statistic - she becomes a variable no one can control. Grinder doesn't talk about the past. Doesn't flinch. Doesn't fail. As the club's enforcer, he's the one they send when silence needs teeth. But the girl isn't afraid of his violence. She's afraid of what happens when he looks at her like she's not broken - just unfinished. She speaks in probabilities. He answers in scars. And the more they try to stay out of each other's way, the more they unravel something that doesn't obey logic. But danger doesn't always come with warning signs. And when the people hunting her close in, protecting her won't be enough. In a world built on silence, fire, and blood - sometimes the most dangerous thing isn't the man with the weapon... It's the girl who teaches him how to feel.

Verity was a quiet 16 year old girl who had a tough life. She never meant for things to go so bad- so why did they? Abandoned at the ripe age of 3, she was adopted by a narcissistic asshole who abused her for 13 years straight. Her only escape was her best friends, who she saw as her older brothers and his dad- who she called her dad. He fed her and kept her safe, helping her when things got bad at home. She introduced herself as Verity Volkov, which wasn't her last name but the last name she wishes she had. Her father figure, Mikael Volkov, was the leader of the Russian mafia. Verity attended NLA, New Life Academy. One day, when she is at school, the unspeakable happens- her adoptive father commits. With nowhere to legally go, she sits in the sheriffs office, awaiting her DNA test. To her surprise, she has a family- in fact, she had a mom, a dad, and 6 older brothers. Six! What was she to do as she moves to Italy to live with her biological family, who appeared to be the Russians rivals- the Italian mafia. Her father was the don of the goddamn Italian mafia.

The man she falls in love with without realizing. As her story unfolds and secrets reveal, Verity goes through an emotional rollercoaster. And through this all Verity has one question only: Why did her biological family abandon her? What will she do to cope through all of this? ______________________________________

Sienna Giovanni, a 12-year-old Italian-South Korean girl, has spent most of her life in isolation. Her only company has been her neglectful "mother," a deflated volleyball, and a worn-out teddy bear. She doesn't know much about the world outside her small, lonely existence. But life wasn't always this way. Sienna once had loving parents and caring older siblings, a family full of warmth and laughter-until tragedy tore them apart. Everything changes when her "mother" is arrested, and Sienna is returned to the parents who never stopped searching for her. They remember their sweet, mischievous little girl with the sparkling chocolate-brown eyes and adorable grin who could make anyone smile. But Sienna isn't the same anymore. The bright, innocent child they knew is now a guarded, quiet pre-teen, weighed down by the scars of her past. Determined to help her heal, her family tries to rebuild their connection and bring Sienna out of her shell.
