Marcella's life has been anything but fun, her half-siblings hated her from her point of existence and everything she represented. She was the outcome of a one-night stand that never happened again, she has faint memories of her 'dad' and 'half-brothers', all of which scared her. Her family wasn't nice to her, not even her mother, who had moved her across the country at a young age and gave her a stepdad, Kyle. He wasn't nice either nor were his 'friends'. What happens when Marcella is told that her mother and stepfather have died and that she now has to move in with her dad? Better yet, what happens when they figure out she is pregnant and suffers severely from PTSD and many more mental health conditions? I don't know what her dad's side of the family is expecting from her but it is NOT this! 🪄 Sensitive subjects all through the story so if anyone for whatever reason needs a trigger warning please take this as it.

BROKEN PRODIGY I Following the passing of their mother, the now orphaned Di Genova siblings found themselves slowly unravelling. With a distrusting mafia empire to run and personal heartbreak to mend, all attention to the youngest Di Genova disappeared leaving the distraught six-year-old to fend for herself. After two long years of unexplained cold shoulders, cruel dismissals and general abandonment from her siblings, child prodigy Dakoda Reese Di Genova finally reached her breaking point. At the tender age of eight, she made the difficult decision to leave behind her family and Italian roots, embarking on a new journey not as the Dakoda her family knew but as the Reese they did not. Fast forward a decade, Reese had cemented her place in history. As the anonymous CEO of the biggest technology company in the world and sole Heir to the American mafia empire, she had buried the past in the same grave she had buried her heartbreak. She had moved on. Her four brothers hadn't. And it was going to take a lot more than them spewing out the same apologies she too had once offered, in order for her to forgive their everlasting betrayal.

Nearly 10 years-that's how long Cecelia has been alone. Abandoned. Exiled from the only family she's ever known for a crime she doesn't even remember committing. Sent away to a cold, unfamiliar boarding school in London, she learned to survive on her own, her past slipping away piece by piece after a tragic accident stole her memories. Now, her family exists only in the ink-stained pages of her diary-names without faces, stories without warmth. But when a sudden summons drags her back into their world, Cecelia is forced to confront the ghosts of her past. Her family still blames her. Their eyes hold nothing but resentment. And worst of all, she has no idea what she did to deserve their hatred. Thrown into a brutal world of crime, power, and secrets, Cecelia finds herself entangled in a dangerous game-one where trust is scarce, loyalty is tested, and betrayal lurks in every shadow. As she fights to reclaim the life that was stolen from her, she must face the ultimate question: Can she ever truly go home, or was she never meant to belong in the first place?
