Flavio Esposito is a cruel man. Or that's what most think. Being the italian mafia leader has its perks, but has drastic downsides. Having 6 kids, 5 sons and 1 daughter, would put anyone in a tricky situation. After watching the love of his life, his wife, die in front of him, he learned it was no longer safe for his daughter to stay there. So, he did the best thing he thought of. No, not training her like his sons and keeping them there. Ha not that at all. Instead, he sent his daughter away to, what he thought, an ordinary boarding school. Let me tell you, he soon regrets that decision.
She was only 6 when she was cast off and sent away. Sadly for her, she vividly remembers every detail that happened. 11 years later, Rhexa is, out of the blue, set to return 'home'.
How will she deal with the news?
Seeing the people who first abandoned her, will she be happy? Or bicker with them?
How will her brothers and father react to her?
Will she take the news well when she reunites with someone who she loved but also abandoned her?
Read along and find out.

"You're worth more than a fucking deal, Amara." _____________________________________________
It all started with a secret deal. A deal that should have meant nothing yet meant everything.
Xavier Hernandez, the Italian mafia Don. The title was given to him at a young age being only 16 and now he's carrying the weight of leading a mafia at the age of 20. He's a man who is feared by many and is known for being merciless, ruthless, strong and powerful. He would shoot you between the eyes if you dared to look at him the wrong way. His cold hearted soul has never met the warm touch of another, has never experienced the warm feeling known as love.
Amara Sánchez, the Spanish mafia princess. A woman who is sarcastic yet stubborn at times. She is the youngest out of her family being the age of 18 and has a lot of responsibility in her hands as her father is the Spanish mafia Don. She is known to be kind hearted, considerate and a goddess . Her warm heart has yet to touch ones cold heart that seeks the feeling of love.
Both complete opposites.
What happens when opposites attract? Will it end up in heartbreak or will it lead to a new found love? What happens when the past reveals itself? What happens when the truth is revealed? What will happen when promises are broken?
