Aleksander Cipriano is one of the most feared assassins in the world. Most people think he's a myth, just another monster under the bed made up to scare your children at night. Anyone that's ever laid eyes on him has never lived to tell the tale. Aleksander is, to put it nicely, psychotic. Rightly so since he was trained since he was 10 by the only other assassin that could give him a run for his money, Mateo Cipriano. Aleksander puts the joker to shame. In his mind, laughing and making inappropriate jokes and humming along to Disney songs while he makes a kill is the only way to keep his spirits up. How else is he supposed to cling on to that small shred of sanity that he had left? Lilliet Lovett is a loving, strong and independent young woman. She's lives in New York, going to college and waiting tables at a local diner. She desperately wanted more out of life, though she had no idea how she would get it. The only exciting adventures she ever had were with her two best friends on their last vacations of the summer. She and her friends take their annual summer trip to Italy, seeking romance and exciting adventure. Little did Lilliet know she would get everything she dreamed of in a tall, dark, handsome and psychotic package. -------- (UNEDITED) This is a mature book- meaning strong language, sex, murder, lots of illegal things that mafia people do.
