Mob wife. Married to the Kingpin himself. With a little blessing on the way, ALL before my twenty first birthday, how crazy is that? Life has definitely drastically changed over these past few years. Fear was an old feeling that was instantly beginning to settle back in as I think of our little blessing being raised in Isaac's world, The Mafia world. The life Isaac lives definitely Isn't easy, it definitely isn't safe, and even though I've grown accustomed to it, accepted it and him, anything could happen to any one of us at any given moment. Isaac and I have been through so much already that the next time either one of us is in the hospital it better be for our baby's birth, but The Matteo's lives, ways, continue to put a strain on our relationship, family, and I don't know if we'll be able to survive this.

Months after Isaac's and Hailey's traumatic incident, weeks after their graduation, Hailey's finally off to college, attempting to put her past behind her along with Isaac's problems... Book Two.

My father is the leader of one of the world's most notorious families, an Italian mafia family that is. It was passed down to him from my grandpa months before I was born and The Matteo family have been up on top, running things in New York City for years now. My best friend, Iridiana, her dad, he just so happens to be my father's second in command, his right hand man. And I just so happened to be madly in love with his daughter. I wasn't supposed to fall in love with her. I'm supposed to be her protector, her guardian, I guess I took that to a whole different meaning. Both her father and mine have warned me to stay away from her, to not cross any boundaries and start creating problems within the faction. At the end of the day my dad's second in command will put his daughter above everything else and I definitely don't want to be the reason why their friendship gets strained. I'm trying to keep my distance because I know I can't have her, but I want her so bad. After all, I am my father's son, I am a Matteo, and we're used to getting what we want, even if I have to go against my own father and hers.
