Eighteen years ago, Zara LaRosa and Dante Salvatori used to play together as often as their parents allowed them to. One night, everyone in the LaRosa family home was killed, except little Zara who managed to escape with the head of her father's security.

She was taken to a safe house near Venice, an underground complex where she spent the last 18 years preparing for the moment when she will get revenge for her family's death and destroy the Salvatori family who were the culprits of the tragedy.

But Bonifacio Salvatori, the man who ordered her parent's execution is now dead, and his son Dante has become Don and taken over the mafia.

Zara resurfaces and starts operating from the shadows, killing Bonifacio's people who were involved in her home invasion and who are now loyal to Dante, earning a nickname Regina del Sangue (Queen of Blood) in the process.

Her true identity is unknown to everyone except for her team from the underground and she intends to keep it that way.

Will Zara be able to destroy Dante while hiding her identity from him and before he manages to kill her for taking out his people?

BOOK 3 OF THE DE'MARCO SERIES. This book is a part of a series, but can be read as a standalone, please read the last paragraph for detailss. •••••••••••••••• This book is another one of my cliche fantasies brought to life. Zara King is an independent, confident 21 year old. She likes to put up a strong front but she's sensitive and just wants to feel as protected as her dad made her feel again. Christiano De'Marco is the Italian Mob-Bosses brother. He's the definition of a badboy. He's the CEO of De'Marco Enterprises, the mafias cover business, and he can be described as arrogant, player and unbothered about peoples feelings... most of the time. ********************* All pictures used are from pinterest, i dont claim credit for any of them. PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BEFORE READING ANY OF MY BOOKS. If i have used your material and you want me to either remove it, or give you credit, please let me know and id be happy to. ********************* ●●●●●●●●● The book DOES NOT HAVE any smut. It is marked mature because of language. ●●●●●●●●● hii. This is the third book in the De'Marco family books. It can be read as a standalone, This book does have references to both PICCOLO BAMBINO INGUENUO and LA MIA MELODIA, which are my first two books, and would be kind of like a continuation i guess, but its a story on its own, any references that i do put ill explain, but if you wanna get the full experience then id recommend you do read it. Oki enjoy muah.
