Book Three of The Possession Trilogy Luciella De'Rosa Ferraro was never meant to be the victim. Not in a world she helped rule. Not with a man like Matteo Ferraro at her side. But power means nothing when you're stolen in the dark. Just weeks after their wedding, Luciella vanishes-ripped from her world and dragged back into a past she thought she had buried for good. Imprisoned, isolated, and at the mercy of a man who has waited years for revenge, she is forced into a living nightmare where control no longer belongs to her. And this time... she isn't alone. Carrying a secret that raises the stakes higher than ever, Luciella is pushed to her limits-physically, mentally, and emotionally. Tortured, broken, and stripped of everything she once commanded, she clings to one fragile hope: that Matteo will find her. That he won't stop searching. That he won't give up. But as days turn into weeks, doubt begins to creep in. Maybe he's too late. Maybe he's lost in his own guilt. Maybe even the most powerful man in New York can't save her from this. So Luciella does what she has always done best. She survives. Summoning the last of her strength, she turns the tables in a final, desperate act of defiance-proving that even at her weakest, she is still lethal. But victory comes at a cost, and when her body finally gives out, she's left on the edge between life and death. Until she wakes. A hospital room. A fragile breath. And Matteo-broken, desperate, and praying for the woman he refuses to lose. Because this wasn't just a kidnapping. It was a war. And now that Luciella is back... there will be consequences.

Book One of The Possession Trilogy Luciella De'Rosa doesn't just belong to the mafia-she commands it. By day, she rules one of New York City's most powerful crime empires with ruthless precision. By night, she becomes something far more dangerous-a silent predator, feared by those who dare cross her path. Cold, calculated, and fiercely independent, Luciella has built her empire on control... and she doesn't intend to lose it. Until the night she's seen. Matteo Ferraro-equally powerful, equally dangerous, and far too observant-catches Luciella in the middle of a kill. An uneasy alliance binds them, but trust is another matter entirely. They are not friends. They are not allies by choice. Yet from that moment on, their lives become impossibly, irrevocably intertwined. What begins as tense encounters and reluctant cooperation spirals into something far more volatile: late-night meetings, whispered secrets, high-stakes dinners, and a connection neither of them can afford. One mistake leads to another, and suddenly, lines blur between duty and desire, power and passion. As their empires begin to merge, so do their worlds-bringing with them a dangerous circle of allies and enemies alike. Valerio D'Angelo, Alejandro Russo, and Luciella's fiercely loyal partner Arabella Romano stand at their side, while the stakes rise higher than ever before. Together, they form a force unlike anything New York has ever seen: The Italian New York Mafia. But power comes at a price. With enemies closing in, betrayal lurking in the shadows, and violence never far behind, Luciella and Matteo must decide what matters more-control... or each other. Because in their world, love isn't just dangerous. It's deadly.

Book Two of The Possession Trilogy Luciella De'Rosa has everything she fought for-power, control, and a man ruthless enough to stand beside her. Engaged to Matteo Ferraro and ruling a united empire, Luciella now sits at the top of New York City's criminal underworld. Together, they are untouchable. Unbreakable. Or so they thought. Because someone has been watching her. Someone who remembers exactly who she used to be. Seven years ago, at just sixteen, Luciella made her first kill. A moment that should have been buried in the past-handled, erased, forgotten under her father's rule. But not all mistakes stay hidden. Not all enemies stay dead. Now, the past has come back for her. It begins with whispers-unknown numbers, lingering shadows, threats that feel far too personal. Then it escalates into something far more dangerous. Someone is hunting her the way she once hunted others... and this time, there's no one left to clean up her mess. Matteo refuses to let her face it alone. Bound by loyalty and love, he stands at her side, vowing to protect her at any cost-even if it means dragging her away from the empire they built. Even if it means war. In the midst of chaos, they cling to one thing untouched by blood: their future. A wedding in Italy promises a brief escape-a moment of peace in a world that never stops demanding more. But peace never lasts. The moment Matteo is pulled away on business, the illusion shatters. Because Luciella De'Rosa isn't just being threatened anymore. She's been claimed. Taken by a ghost from her past, Luciella is forced into a deadly game where survival means confronting the very thing she's tried to outrun for years. And this time, power won't save her. Because she's not the hunter anymore. She's the one who's been marked.

That's when Alexander Lane, the guy she's had a long time vendetta with, comes to save the day. Or so he thought that was what he was doing. Pretending to date is easy, but separating what's real from what's just an act isn't. Even worse when one little lie spreads into a much bigger mess.

Addie Whitmore has loved exactly three things her entire life: romance novels, pink sunsets, and her older brother. Then Raiden Harrington moved in next door. From the moment he became Alec's best friend, Addie was pushed to the sidelines - the little sister, the afterthought, the one left outside closed bedroom doors. And she's never quite forgiven him for it. Now they're all at the same college. Same campus. Same circle. And somehow, the boy she's spent years hating is suddenly everywhere. Worse? He's different. Quieter. Watching her like he's trying to figure her out instead of dismiss her. But Addie already has a boyfriend. And Raiden is off-limits in every possible way. Because if Alec ever found out his best friend was looking at his little sister like that? It wouldn't just break rules. It would break everything. Enemies. Neighbors. Brother's best friend. Some lines were never meant to be crossed. And some grudges were never meant to turn into something more.

First book 🏒. Starting college was supposed to be Violet Vale's escape plan. New country. New city. New campus. And then there's Ethan Maddox-tattoos inked like warnings, that infuriating smirk, and a six-foot-five presence that fills every room like he owns it. Her brother's best friend. Her worst enemy. And now? Her accidental shadow at Northbridge University. Violet's spent years trading insults and eye-rolls with Ethan, ever since he became an honorary part of her family. But there's nothing brotherly about the way he looks at her now-or the way her pulse reacts when he calls her Vi like it's some kind of challenge. He's cocky. Infuriating. One year older. And the only person on campus who makes her feel anything at all. They're not friends. Definitely not something more. But the line between hate and something far messier is starting to blur. And when hearts get tangled... Someone's going to fall. Warning: May contain profanity and sexual content.
