She was their little princess... Until she disappeared. At just two years old, Valentina Romano was kidnapped from her family, leaving behind ten years of pain, grief, and endless searching. While the world moved on, the Romanos never did. Not her mother who cried herself to sleep. Not her father who searched for her in silence.

Unused to affection. Haunted by a painful childhood she never deserved. Now begins not a story of revenge... but a story of healing. A family learning how to love their broken princess again.

Through tears, comfort, overprotective brothers, soft family moments, and unconditional love... Valentina finally begins to heal. But after living ten years without a family... Will she be able to trust them completely? Can broken hearts truly heal with love alone? And will the Romanos finally get the happy ending they waited years for? Their Innocent Principessa - a heart-touching story of loss, healing, family, and the purest kind of love. 🖤

Alessandra has never believed in safety. Life never gave her a reason to. Pain carved her childhood, silence became her armor, and trust? That was a luxury she could never afford. So when she runs -- bloody, broken, and barely breathing, she doesn't expect saving. She certainly doesn't expect to be taken in by a family dripping in wealth and power and. . . warmth? A mother who refuses to give up on her. A father who watches like he's waiting for her to let him in. And six brothers. Rough. Protective. Complicated. Brothers, who don't know what to do with a sister who won't speak. She doesn't know how to trust. How to believe that maybe not everyone wants to hurt her. Every instinct tells her to run. To shut down. But they don't let her go. Not when she flinches. Not when she hides. Not even when she breaks. Happiness is for other people, or that's what she believes. But when love comes wrapped in gentle patience and fierce protection, when hands reach for her without demand, when hearts break themselves wide open just to hold her... she starts to wonder. Can a girl stitched together with silence and fear ever belong in a family built on love? Can she stand tall when the ghosts of her past refuse to let go? And when danger claws its way back into her life, threatening everything she's come to know... will she find her voice, or will she shatter all over again? Trigger Warnings: Child abuse. Violence. Addiction. Panic attacks. SA. Self-harm. Death, and more.
