Eighteen-year-old Lucy Green has never known safety. Her mother is dead, and her abusive stepfather, Wyatt, controls every part of her life-what she does, where she goes, and how much she's allowed to eat. She's more servant than daughter, surviving by staying quiet and invisible. The Moretti brothers have spent fifteen years tearing the world apart searching for the sister stolen from them. Lorenzo, Valentino, Roman, Leonardo, and Xavier have followed every lead, chased every whisper. Hope has nearly burned out-until Roman sees a girl with a crescent-shaped scar above her left eyebrow. A scar only Lucia Moretti could have. One glance, and Roman knows. Once DNA confirms the truth, Roman begins to follow her-mapping her routines, the worn-down places she moves through, the small life Wyatt allows her to have. And when Roman finally witnesses the abuse happening behind the closed door of her rundown home, he steps in. But his intervention goes terribly wrong-sparking a violent chain of events that will force Lucia's worlds to collide. Dragged into danger, truth, and a family she never knew she had, Lucia must face the past stolen from her and the brothers who never stopped looking. A dark mafia drama about a stolen girl, five brothers who refuse to give up on her, and the fight to reclaim a life she never got to live.

Sixteen years ago, two twin girls were born into one of Italy's most powerful families. Sofia and Stella Bianchi. The two girls grew up sharing a bond everyone believed could never be broken. But as they got older something had changed . . . After a mysterious incident, Sofia accuses Stella of doing something unforgivable, something Stella swears she never did. But no matter how much she begs for someone to believe her, they only listens to Sofia's side of the story. Their father being unable to accept what he believes Stella has done, sends her away to a boarding school hoping she'll "learn from her mistakes." But the place Stella arrives at is nothing like the school they were promised. Hidden behind its elegant walls is a darker truth . . Years later, Stella returns home changed. Stronger, guarded, and carrying secrets of her own. Now she must face the family who abandoned her, the twin who betrayed her, and the truth that could destroy them all . . .

She was stolen but never forgotten. And now... she's back. Kidnapped at just two years old, Eden Blackthorn vanished without a trace - until one violent night changed everything. She built a new life in the shadows: underground fights, illegal street races, and a stage name no one dared cross. Eve. But a run-in with the law unravels the truth she never asked for. A mother still grieving. A father desperate. And seven older brothers who never stopped searching. Problem is - Eden isn't their sweet, innocent sister anymore. She's a fighter, a survivor, and she doesn't trust anyone. Now thrown into a world of blood ties and buried secrets, Eden must face the family she can't remember, the past she can't escape, and a war between loyalty and survival. Family means never having to say you're sorry - but sometimes, it means bleeding for people you barely know.

Nina was sitting in the dark, cold night, hugging her small body to get any sense of warmth. After four years of being homeless, she thought she would get used to the cold life, but she never did. The rats still scared her, and her only solace of feeling safe was hiding near the bar. The bar gave her light during the night, and luckily, nobody ever bothered her. She still struggled to find food, so day by day, she was getting weaker. Her fourteen-year-old self didn't know how she would make it another year alone and was constantly looking to see if there were dangers in the streets. One day, as she was sitting on the ground, trying to keep herself warm, she saw the Rucco mafia heading to the same street she was on. She made herself small, hid under the stairs to make herself invisible. She was no threat, but she was in their territory after all. If they didn't like her, they could beat her up, or worse, kill her. As she silently observed the Rucco siblings, suddenly, Adrian Rucco, the notorious leader, shot the rival French mafia. Nina just witnessed murder for the first time. Scared and anxious, she screamed. The Ruccos caught her, and as they observed the small, fourteen-year-old girl that just witnessed their kill, they had to decide what to do with her. Nina thought they would kill her. She was collateral damage after all. As she waited for her ill destiny, to her shock, the Ruccos decided to kidnap her and make her their little sister. How will Nina, an innocent homeless girl who knows nothing about family, survive with the notorious mafia?

. On the day her twin sister "died," or that what she thought everything she knew shattered. She remembered the scream, the fall, the blood-and then the world changed. In the chaos, no one asked her what really happened. They didn't care to hear her version. Her parents, once the warmth in her world, turned cold overnight. The brothers who loved her most began to look at her like a monster. Whispers filled the house. Accusations behind closed doors. She was blamed, judged, and punished-not by strangers, but by her own blood. And then, without warning, they sent her away. A boarding school in another country, they said, as if it were for her own good. But it wasn't a school-it was a cage dressed in discipline. Far from home, far from love, she entered a place no child should ever be. Hidden behind iron gates and smiling lies, that school was a breeding ground for cruelty. Every corner held secrets. Every night was a nightmare. And no one ever came looking for her. Not a single letter. Not a single call. They forgot her- Years passed. . And then came the call. Her family wanted her to return. As if they still had the right to call her back. But the girl who left never came back-not really. What returns now is someone colder, quieter, sharper. She tells herself she feels nothing for them. That she's learned to live without love. That hatred is easier than hope. But buried beneath the years and pain, there is still a small voice inside her-a child's voice-aching to be believed, to be seen, to be forgiven for a crime she never committed. Will her family finally face what they've done? And when the truth comes out-will it set her free, or break her all over again?

Three years. Three years since Demetria Saint disappeared again. After her first year of her abduction, Demetria ran. She ran until she couldn't remember where she was going, who she was running from, or whether she would ever make it home. When police eventually find a barefoot, blood-covered seventeen-year-old stumbling out of a forest, whispering to herself and unable to explain what happened, they make an assumption that will change the course of her life. Instead of finding her family... Demetria finds herself locked away in a mental health facility, or aka the 'loony bin'. Two years pass. Two years of trying to piece together memories she can't trust, learning how to live with what happened to her, and becoming someone entirely different from the frightened girl who ran out that forest. But Demetria's story isn't over, because eventually, she walks back into a world she thought she'd lost forever. A world filled with family. Secrets. New friendships. And one person she never expected to see again. Tobias Mother Fucking Dragunov. This time, Demetria isn't the same girl who disappeared. She's louder. She's stronger. She's reckless. And she's finally ready to discover what happens when she stops running. Some rhythms are meant to be silent. Others are meant to be heard.

Nat's life is painfully normal. She wakes up. Makes her coffee. Goes to work. Comes home. Repeats. No one sees the part of her she keeps buried. The part that craves control by losing it. The part that aches for pain in the hands of someone strong enough to break her and gentle enough to put her back together again. At night, she lets that part of herself breathe. In dark clubs. In stolen moments. In silence. But secrets never stay buried forever. Especially not from the three men who own her days. Roman. Julian. Zane. Her bosses. Her tormentors. Her salvation. When they discover who she really is, they offer her something she never expected. A contract. One year of complete submission. One year where her body, her pleasure, her pain belongs to them. In return, they promise to give her everything she's been starving for. Control. Possession. Release. But the contract was never the dangerous part. Falling in love was. Because some contracts don't end. And some people don't let you go.

Raised to be holy. Born into something far more dangerous. Seventeen year old, Evienne Ellery spent her life preparing for heaven. Sent away to a secluded boarding school in the Swiss Alps by distant, unfeeling adoptive parents, she was raised by nuns and priests to be obedient, submissive and small. Behind stone chapels and cold classrooms, Evienne learned early that love was conditional, punishment was holy, and suffering was something to be endured quietly Her future was simple: be good, be faithful, and one day do her duty-marry a man who would secure her family's interests. Her life was planned. Controlled. Perfect. Until it wasn't. When everything she knows collapses, Evienne is torn from the only world she has ever known and sent to live with her biological family-six brothers who are loud, vulgar, violent, and unapologetically criminal.
