Like the Hunger Games series? Then you'll love ''Man Hunt'' When Alice awakes in a small, bare room with nothing more than a letter, a backpack, a change of clothes and some survival gear, she doesn't know what to expect. She has no recollection of how she got to where she is, or even where she is and she can't help but feel frightened about the whole situation. According to the letter addressed to her name, her parents signed her up for a new televised game show in which twelve teenagers will be split into two equal teams. The teenagers will then take part in a slightly modified version of a childhood game they are all quite familiar with for the chance to win a sum of €1,000,000 for every member of the winning team. When Alice meets the rest of her group, they soon realise that they are stranded on an island and they have no other option but to cooperate. They quickly find the instructions and map their team has been supplied with and are forced to begin a game which they fear is darker than it may seem. The twelve teenagers can't be any more different, however they must push their divergence aside and hope that they have what it takes to win the game and return home with the money that could change their lives forever. In a tale of adventure, action and deceit; do Alice and her team have what it takes to leave the island as champions or is there a more sinister fate in store for them? Is this really just a game as their letters describe, or are there darker forces at work behind closed doors?

The Dellucci, being one of the Italian American mafias, had quite the number of rivals in this literal cut throat race. To gain power they partnered with Luca Rivera. However, the Toscani, another family, was after the Dellucci's most prized possession, Arieon. She was the stone that would kill two birds, and make The Toscani's grip on the world tighter. A decision had to be made, on an offer that couldn't be refused. The Toscani wanted Arieon Anderson in exchange for his niece. Though the exchange was nothing in front of Luca Rivera's words, "I'm afraid we can't meet the agreement. That's my future wife. She won't go with you." Those three sentences, said in attempt to uphold peace and keep Arieon safe would shake her world and force her to uphold her responsibilities to the Dellucci. Although with mafia rats involved how safe was safe? Most impressive rankings -#1 in Hatelove -#3 in Danger -#8 in Desire

Putting my life on the line, I made a deal with the Devil. Because at the end of the day, my family comes first. Until HER. She changes everything. The whole game plan. The moment our eyes met, I was gone. The pull between us so hard to resist. She became my one and only undeniable Obsession. When it is time to make a choice, who would I choose? My family? or My Obsession? * HER I was living in the darkness for so long. No life. No choice. I was bent to his will, doing whatever he wanted me to do. I was no longer my own. Only because the Devil owned me. Body and soul. But not my heart. Days after days, my hope slowly vanished into thin air. Until HIM. One look was enough to make my heart beat just a little faster.
