What would you risk to survive... when the people you trust could destroy you? FLORENCE BROOKS ~ thought moving to New York meant freedom a chance to escape her father's abuse, chase her history degree, and finally build a life on her own terms. She was wrong. Her cousin Lucas isn't just hiding secrets - he's part of a ruthless mafia that drags Florence into a world of power, violence, and blood oaths. Every choice she makes could be deadly, every word a trap. The streets she thought were her escape become a cage, and the people who should protect her may be the ones to destroy her. Then there's ENZO ROMANO ~ Dangerous, enigmatic, and impossibly magnetic, he's the one person who sees through Florence's walls. Every glance is loaded, every word measured, and every touch sparks a fire she can't ignore. He terrifies her, but also awakens something she never thought she could feel - desire, trust, and maybe even hope. Caught between fear, loyalty, and forbidden attraction, Florence must navigate a life where survival is never guaranteed - and where love might be the most dangerous risk of all. Secrets, power, obsession, and passion collide in a world that will test her courage, her heart, and the very limits of what she's willing to sacrifice. FLORENCE AND I written by may taylor 2025
