J'ai toujours voulu visiter la Californie. Sans expliquer pourquoi. Alors je m'y suis rendue, accompagnée par mes meilleures amies. Tout devait se passer ainsi: de la joie, de la bonne humeur, des souvenirs par milliers et une amitié inébranlable. Après toutes ces années, j'avais enfin trouvé la stabilité que je cherchais depuis toujours. J'avais enfin réussi à m'émanciper de mon passé. Cependant les choses ne se passent pas toujours comme nous l'aurions souhaité. Je pensais ne plus jamais remettre les pieds dans le monde sanguinaire de la mafia. Ma rencontre avec eux m'a fait replonger. En fin de compte, cet abandon est peut-être la meilleure chose qu'il ait pu m'arriver. Parce que j'ai pu accomplir ce que j'ai promis de faire. Entre vengeances, manipulation et destruction je me suis retrouvée exactement là où je devais être. Rien ne se passe jamais par hasard. Tout est toujours calculé. Tout devait se dérouler ainsi. En fin de compte je devais le rencontrer pour enfin mettre un sens à ma vie. Même si nous ne pouvions pas nous supporter et que je risquais de m'y perdre à tout jamais.
