Rosalie Castell waded through life determined to keep herself, and the business she inherited, afloat by whatever means necessary. But being a businesswoman in 1924 is no easy feat. With the waters becoming more treacherous the deeper she goes, and shady characters taking a nefarious interest in the business she owns, she is forced to make choices that could have dire consequences.

As she grows increasingly more entangled in this dangerous world, a new intake from Atlantic City - a twice wounded war vet with mysterious past and a haunted look in his eye - threatens to shatter the illusion of complacency she built up for herself, exposing the loneliness that had been festering beneath.

Survival in this world comes with a price - a price that she isn't willing to pay.

One night, she finally fights back-but instead of consequences, she's hit with a shocking truth: her father is alive, and he's the ruthless leader of a powerful mafia, along with five brothers she never knew existed. Suddenly, Angelina is whisked into a life of luxury and fierce protection. Her hardened brothers vow to shield her from the dangerous world they live in, and her once-untouchable father softens, determined to make up for lost time. But her return has stirred deadly enemies, and her new family will stop at nothing to keep her safe-even if it means going to war for her. For the first time, Angelina isn't alone. She has a family who would burn the world for her-and they just might have to. Her past made her a survivor. Now, she might just become queen. ~~~ 𝐓𝐖: 𝐆𝐮𝐧𝐬, 𝐀𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐡𝐨𝐥, 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐥𝐭, 𝐊𝐢𝐝𝐧𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐌𝐮𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫, 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞.
