-Book 2-

The Truth is the Only Way to be Set Free and be transformed by a love that is as old as time. 

Stefano Leone is next in line to oversee the American-Italian Mafia. A flawless killer, savvy engineer, and a complete disbeliever in the BS concept of love, excellence in the art of monstrosity is all he's ever strived for. However, even the most merciless and lethal monsters have their weaknesses: and family along with a certain raven haired best friend are his.

Ilaira Valentina is an aspiring surgeon although her clumsiness through life makes her career choice questionable to those who don't know her. A gifted practicing surgeon, notoriously ill-timed, and optimistic to a fault, Ilaria has always been the one to give her all to those she loves: Even if those loves are working contradictions in her blood family that belittles her, and her chosen family that consist of the man she's silently in love with.

When a new drug cartel begins to make its presence known in Leone territory, challenges arise quicker than either Stefano or Ilaria are prepared to deal with. As loyalty is questioned, faith is put to the test, and love must be deciphered to be a risk worth taking or an evil to be set aflame. Both Stefano and Ilaria must learn to be honest with themselves and each other about who they are and who they want to be in order to survive the humbling storm knocking at their pride's doors.
