COMPLETED. R-RATED MATURE CONTENT. STEAMY. "I'm your property now, aren't I?" I let out in a hiss. I didn't know where that defiance had suddenly come from, but I relished in the feeling. And the narrowing of his blazing eyes and the slight twitch of his lips gave me the answer that I needed. "Welcome to the mafia, signorina." - Lies. Lust. Deception. In the somber world of 1924's Italian mafia, only the strongest can survive. Beneath the upbeat glamor of the Roaring Twenties in New York City, with its glittery feathers and blood-red lips and fancy cocktails, there lies a twisted world that the ritzy population knows nothing about. Suddenly, poverty-ridden Antonia is thrown into the turbulent reality of violence and deception that lies within one of the most feared mafia families on the East Coast: the Berettis. And what's worse is the sudden take of interest in her of every member in that damned family. Including that of the revered and dangerous Marco Beretti, son of the Don. But then, Antonia realizes that her part in this mafia is much, much bigger than she'd ever expected. And it may just cost her her life. - THIS STORY IS RATED MATURE.

I've dreamed of the perfect marriage ever since I was a little girl: a marriage complete with a hardworking husband while I tended to the home and our children, preferably four little rugrats to call my own. I dreamed of a life filled with laughter, joy, and success, a life we built together. I dreamed of growing old next to my husband, creating a great love story to tell our grandchildren someday. It all seemed so possible. I was raised to be the perfect wife, after all. From the outside, it seemed I had exactly what I dreamed of with the rich, determined husband; the brilliant, gaudy diamond ring; and the beautiful home filled with the hope of future children. Yes, it was all a dream come true. I should have felt grateful, really. The problem is, I also wanted a marriage based on love, passion, and affection, but those are the only things my husband cannot give me . . . . . . because they're reserved for her.

Flash back to 1954. For seven months, Michael had been working many extra hours during the week, coming home late and even having to go into the office on weekends. Susan stayed at home, patiently waiting for his return each day. One evening, she called her widowed friend whose husband had died in Korea...and she heard her Michael's distinctive voice in the background...when he was supposed to be at work. After discovering his lies, Susan takes a stand that most women didn't take in the Fifties, hoping that Michael would come to understand his wife in an entirely new way.
