Fifteen-year-old Anu Singh has lost the only person she could hold on to, her mother. Alone in a quiet, empty house, grief is all she knows... until she discovers a hidden letter from her mother. Inside, a flight ticket to Italy, old photographs of smiling children, and a family Anu has never met. Could this be the life her mother wanted for her? Or is it the beginning of a journey that will change everything? Across continents, two of the most dangerous families in the criminal world are closing in on the same secret. The Moretti family, feared in Italy for their mafia empire and business legacy, and the Volkov family, infamous in Russia for their ruthless power and generational dominance, have been locked in a rivalry that could ignite a war. Now, both are searching for a mother-daughter duo lost for 15 years. How is Anu connected to them? Who will find her first? And why do these legendary families care so much about one girl?

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)

In her previous life, Shen Yuwei was known as Li Hua, a noble daughter who lost everything and later became a trusted attendant to a royal princess. One day, her mistress lent her a strange novel. It was the story of a talented actress from the future and a handsome actor destined to become her lover. As for the villainess? She was spoiled, arrogant, materialistic, and hopelessly obsessed with the male lead despite already being married. Li Hua could never understand her. After all, the villainess's husband was handsome, successful, loyal, and had never taken another woman. Why would she throw everything away for a man who did not love her? Unfortunately... When Li Hua opened her eyes again, she discovered she had become that very same villainess. Shen Yuwei. The woman destined to lose everything. The woman who would eventually be divorced and abandoned by everyone. Faced with her tragic future, Shen Yuwei only had one wish. To live peacefully. To avoid provoking the heroine. To stay away from the male lead. And to properly cherish the husband the original owner never appreciated. But the more she tries to stay out of trouble, the more people begin to notice her. The family that once tolerated her begins to adore her. The entertainment industry becomes curious about her transformation. Even the husband who barely acknowledged her existence starts paying attention. What Shen Yuwei doesn't know is that some stories were never as simple as they appeared. And perhaps... The true villain was never the villainess. --- "I already have a husband." "So why would I chase another man's love?"
