'He hit me, and it felt like a kiss.' Cadence Levana Solace, seventeen years old, the bastard child of the ex-don of the Italian mafia. Born of mistakes and raised by hate, she is now a force to be reckoned with. Growing up with no knowledge of her biological mother, having to deal with the scrutiny of her stepmother and half-brothers, and the abuse of her father, impacts her dearly. Now, at the ripe age of eight, she's being sent away by her family to a boarding school. Due to the reckless endeavors of her fathers late night, drunken research, she is sent off to a boarding school for assassins. Years of torture and assualt leads Cade to become the most feared being in the underworld/mafia and the unofficial Queen of the underworld. Life is going...well enough for Cade when an anonymous tip leads to the school being under investigation and temporarily shut down. Now she's back with the family who sent her away. But here's the thing, my dear readers; I created this book with the romance and couple in mind. Not the family. This book isn't about Cade going back to being a victim who just takes the hits and insults like that's all she can do. No, this book is about her becoming the abuser, about her being hit and hitting back and fucking loving it. About her being choked, thrust into, and fucked without her consent, so she does it back. And she doesn't leave the relationship. Because in this book, pain doesn't mean leaving, it means wanting to bruise everywhere so that the next time they look in the mirror, they see who they belong to written all over their body. This, Dearest readers, is the Tale of Wrath.
