Alessandra has never believed in safety. Life never gave her a reason to. Pain carved her childhood, silence became her armor, and trust? That was a luxury she could never afford. So when she runs -- bloody, broken, and barely breathing, she doesn't expect saving. She certainly doesn't expect to be taken in by a family dripping in wealth and power and. . . warmth? A mother who refuses to give up on her. A father who watches like he's waiting for her to let him in. And six brothers. Rough. Protective. Complicated. Brothers, who don't know what to do with a sister who won't speak. She doesn't know how to trust. How to believe that maybe not everyone wants to hurt her. Every instinct tells her to run. To shut down. But they don't let her go. Not when she flinches. Not when she hides. Not even when she breaks. Happiness is for other people, or that's what she believes. But when love comes wrapped in gentle patience and fierce protection, when hands reach for her without demand, when hearts break themselves wide open just to hold her... she starts to wonder. Can a girl stitched together with silence and fear ever belong in a family built on love? Can she stand tall when the ghosts of her past refuse to let go? And when danger claws its way back into her life, threatening everything she's come to know... will she find her voice, or will she shatter all over again? Trigger Warnings: Child abuse. Violence. Addiction. Panic attacks. SA. Self-harm. Death, and more.

Fifteen years ago, the powerful Florentin family ruled the Spanish underworld-until one bloody night changed everything. During a brutal war between the Spanish Mafia and the Russian syndicate, Isabella Florentin was murdered and one-year-old Angélica vanished without a trace. Unknown to the Florentins, Angélica was smuggled to the United States and abandoned in an abusive orphanage, where she grew up surrounded by violence, neglect, and loneliness. Fifteen years later, the Florentin brothers receive a shocking phone call from a hospital in the United States claiming their long-lost sister has finally been found. Desperate to reunite with their long lost little sister they failed to save, they immediately fly across the world. But nothing could prepare them for what they discovered next. Angélica is no longer the innocent child from old photographs. At sixteen, she is guarded, traumatized, and carrying emotional scars from a painful life. And she is not alone. In her arms is a one-year-old baby boy. Before the family can process the truth, a bruised and angry seventeen-year-old boy appears at the hospital and reveals himself to be the baby's father. But unlike what the mafia brothers expected, he is not a criminal or predator. He is simply another broken teenager who had once been trapped in the same nightmare as Angélica. Despite his age, he refuses to back down and abandon either Angélica or the child, even while standing face-to-face with one of the deadliest mafia families in Europe. As old enemies resurface and buried secrets about Angélica's disappearance begin to unravel, the Florentin family realizes the war they thought ended fifteen years ago never truly disappeared. Now, with rival mafias hunting them again and Angélica struggling between revenge, fear, and the fragile family she barely remembers, they must decide whether blood alone is enough to heal a lifetime of pain.

"I didn't ask to be in the middle of your ego-battle," I grumble. Blake pins me to my locker, hands resting on either side of my head. "Well, you got it in anyway, Darling," he whispers.

Well, that's just great. *** The West and East gang of Tygerwell have been at each other's throats since the dawn of time. And the two leaders of these gangs want to end the fight, once and for all. But fighting with fists is easy. Fighting with wit and charm, is a whole other ball game. Blake. West-side gang leader. Leather jacket and killer glare. Don't talk back. Owen. East-side gang leader. Fancy coat and toxic stare. Don't resist. And in comes Amber. Hair of gold and oceans in her eyes. Has too much sass for her own good and always, ALWAYS, manages to get into the middle of trouble. But these boys have no idea who they're really dealing with. And when Amber descovers she knows a little too much when it comes to guns and fighting, she has to question everything she thought she knew about herself. Three can play this game. *** "Let's settle this. You got rejected, I got rejected. It's only fair that the fate of the gangs be on who gets the girl first." "That sounds rather good, Rhodes.

Book 1. "The unknown princess" This is book 2! Five years ago, Aria Castellano learned the truth that destroys most people: innocence is the easiest weapon an enemy can use. So she cut hers out. Piece by piece. She left New York to sever every tie that made her vulnerable-family, friends, and the boy she loved enough to become a liability. She traded softness for strategy, hesitation for violence, and the girl she used to be for a woman who understands that survival requires dirty hands and an even dirtier conscience. Now she's back. Not for forgiveness. Not for closure. But to finish the war that began long before she knew she was part of it. Her return exposes traitors, rattles alliances, and forces her to face the one person she swore she'd never see again. And the worst part? It hurts. It shouldn't- but it does. Still, pain is a small price. Because Aria isn't in New York to feel. She's here to win. And she stopped fearing the monster inside her the moment she realized- monsters survive longer.
