In order to keep her mother and sister safe, as well as hiding from a past she'd rather forget, 'Scarlet Diavolo' as she and others call herself begins a life of crime and secrets. Becoming an Assassin, she un-wantingly catches the eyes of two mafia leaders, which might hold more trouble than good.

Knowing they were missing a piece long before they were married, Don Marco and Donna Valentina Salvatore rule the Italian Mafia like a King and Queen ruled a kingdom. But a problem had been troubling their family for years now, and after finding what they deemed their missing piece, she seemed to be the perfect help.
