Nicolina Serafina Valente was born into power, privilege, and a cage she never asked for. The daughter of a ruthless businessman with ties deeper in crime than anyone dares to admit, she's spent her life under scrutiny, surrounded by bodyguards and empty friendships. Andrew Salvatore is everything she shouldn't want-dangerous, untouchable, and the heir to an empire built on blood and loyalty. He's the one man she can't have, the one she keeps coming back to, and the one who threatens to unravel everything she's worked for. They were never meant to last. Just stolen moments, whispered names in the dark, and a game of power neither wants to lose. But when betrayal, secrets, and ambition collide, Niso is forced to make a choice-love or legacy. And in their world, one wrong move could mean losing everything.
