➤ STARTED JULY 2020 ➤ COMPLETED FEBRUARY 2023 By the age of thirteen, Olivia has already been adopted five times-and learned that nothing ever lasts. So when she is suddenly requested by a man named Alessandro Black, a stranger she has barely spoken to, she is given no explanations-only a one‑way trip into yet another unfamiliar home. What Olivia doesn't know is that Alessandro Black is far more than he appears. Behind his cold demeanor and controlled silence, Alessandro is the feared leader of the Black Devils, a powerful mafia syndicate built on secrecy and bloodshed. The adoption is not his idea-it is his wife's wish, a consolation for a child she can never bear. To Alessandro, Olivia is merely an obligation, as long as she keeps his wife content and stays out of his world. But things don't go as planned. As days pass, the ruthless gang leader begins to soften toward the quiet, guarded girl living under his roof. For the first time, Alessandro finds himself willing to protect someone-not from rivals, but from the dangerous life he leads. When his wife leaves on an extended business trip, Olivia and Alessandro are left alone with unspoken tension, hidden truths, and a growing connection neither expected. Will they remain distant strangers bound by circumstance-or form a bond strong enough to survive the shadows of the mafia? A story of secrecy, reluctant attachment, and the lengths one man will go to protect the child who was never meant to matter. COVER DESIGN BY ME
