It can be read as a standalone "𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧'𝐭" Set in the sun-washed heat of Miami's Little Havana, the story follows Carmela Carlo, a sharp, calculating Italian Mafia heiress recently thrust into power after the brutal murder of her brother. With her crime empire hidden behind the crumbling walls of Trattoria Carlo, the family's once-beloved Italian restaurant, she faces enemies closing in from all sides-and a legacy soaked in blood. Enter Xavier Brooks, a gifted but down-on-his-luck Black American chef from Atlanta. He's looking for a fresh start, not a war zone. But when his bold, soul-infused cooking catches Carmela's attention, she offers him a job-and unknowingly, a seat at a very dangerous table. As Xavier brings new life to the restaurant's kitchen, the heat between him and Carmela begins to rise. What starts as guarded fascination soon turns to forbidden attraction. But behind every bite of pasta and every stolen glance lies the truth: Carmela is not just a restaurateur. She's the head of a criminal empire teetering on collapse. With a persistent detective on their trail, betrayals rising from within, and secrets bubbling just beneath the surface, Beneath The Surface explores what happens when loyalty, love, and survival are tossed into the same pot-and how far two people will go to protect what they hunger for most. This isn't just about what's beneath the surface It's about the cost of falling for someone you're not supposed to trust.

Her world is oil-stained and brutally real... until he shows up. When a mysterious man rolls in with a rare Lotus Evija and an attitude to match, Diana knows something's off.
