For fourteen years, her father and brothers tore through cities, secrets, and bloodlines to find the daughter and sister ripped from them. Now, as she turns sixteen, the truth begins to unravel. And when a mafia family finally finds what was taken from them, they don't let go easily.

Enemies would hunt them down. But the question is, could they survive? (This book DOESN'T CONTAIN SMUT) (This book is more of a family and romance book than action)
