Talia Bellini never expected to see Lucien Ardovini again. Five years ago, her mafia husband cast her out, convinced she had betrayed him. She walked away carrying a secret: his twins. Now Lucien has found her, and the moment he spots the children on a Chicago sidewalk, the life she built begins to unravel. He follows. He confronts her. And when he learns the twins are his, the wound between them cuts even deeper. His ultimatum is merciless: return to his home or lose her children forever. But Talia's choice comes with a price; Lucien is days away from his engagement to Sylvia Palmieri, enemies are closing in on his empire, and the past is far from done with either of them.
