Rosalia Hernandez is too innocent for this world sweet like sugar, soft like the petals of the roses she adores. A baker with a heart full of dreams, she spends her days making cupcakes and coffee in her little shop by the beach in Montego Bay. With her warm smile and gentle spirit, she believes in kindness, love, and happy endings.
Kario Diaz doesn't believe in fairytales. The feared Don of Mobay, he rules with an iron fist, his name whispered in the darkest corners of the island. Ruthless in business, merciless to his enemies his heart is as cold as the steel he carries. The only softness he has ever known is for his mother and younger sister, the only family he has left.
But when he walks into Rosalia's café one rainy evening, something shifts. The scent of vanilla and coffee lingers in the air, her laughter like a melody he's never heard before. She's light where he is darkness. Soft where he is hard.
Rosalia doesn't belong in his world. She's a flower too delicate for the storm he brings. But maybe, just maybe, she's the one person who can thaw the ice in his heart.
Will love be enough to break down the walls of a man who has only known war? Or will Rosalia get caught in the crossfire of the dangerous world Kario cannot escape?
