The Mafioso's Daughter

Born into a well-known and feared crime family, Rosa was no stranger to corrupt authoritative figures, shady secrets, and weapons growing up.

However, unlike the rest of her fellow mafia members, she didn't want a new gun, or more power over one part of the city, or to someday marry another family's son as to not taint her rich Italian bloodline, no matter how good-looking he may be. Like her older brother, all she wanted was out.

She had never thought she would see the day when her long awaited wish would come true.

But when it does, her world comes crashing down around her faster than she could blink. She doesn't know who or what to believe anymore, and desperately turns to the only piece of normalcy she has left: an aunt, uncle, and cousin who she had no idea even existed.

Rosa tries to move on, to be a normal teenage girl with normal teenage problems. She makes new friends, goes to parties, and then there was that guy with the sapphire blue eyes that sat next to her in class...

But her supposedly destroyed past comes back to haunt her in more ways than one. She was still Stefano Cacciatore's child, which meant the title of being the family head rightfully belonged to her.

Will she leave her new life behind to embrace her fate, or will she try to forget that she was the mafioso's daughter?
