Book I: Drowning in the Pain (completed)
Book II: Silence of the Omertà (ongoing)

--------------------------

Family as defined in Lilo and Stitch is something in which nobody gets left behind or forgotten, but what if you never had a family in the first place. Alessia 'Sia', always thought she never had a family and her only family was Max, whom she grew up with in the Goodwill Orphanage. What if one day two men come to the orphanage and demand to see Max and Sia claiming that they were family. 

What if you were told that your best friend and someone you considered as close as family was actually your twin. What if you went from thinking that you had no family to later, much later discovering that you do in fact have a big family with 6 older brothers, 3 pairs of uncles and aunts and 12 elder cousin brothers. 

In a big family of only male species, follow Sia through a journey of love, happiness, heartbreak, and most importantly FAMILY. Where Sia finds her true self, with the support of her family as she's always wanted. Will they be the safe haven she's always needed, or will they become so over-protective of her, that they've unknowingly put her in a locked cage. 

Will she be able to get rid of her inner fears and her inner demons before it is too late, or will she go down a path of bloodlust and rage. Will the monsters of her past get to her, or will her family and boyfriend protect her from all the drama that was waiting to be unraveled.

****THIS IS A SEQUEL. To be able to follow this story, please read "Unravelling" first**** Lily has started into the new year with a mixture of confusion, curiosity, anticipation - and dread. Ever since her oldest brothers revealed some of the truth about their family's past, the 12-year-old soon-to-be-teenager is struggling to come to terms with all the new and partially heart-breaking information. For the first few months of the year, Lily has tried to stay true to her word and not dig any further into their past, at least not until Alex, her guardian, is willing to share more details with the younger kids. However, Lily's patience is slowly running out. So many things are occupying her mind. She is convinced that there is still a lot more to discover about her family, and she is not willing to wait much longer. What is their father's story and can she locate him? How did her sister die? When will she see Finn again? Why is Sean really moving back home? And what is the reason behind her brothers' weirdly secretive behavior? With the help from her friends and some of her siblings, Lily continues her journey of gradually unravelling her family's secrets. Will she be successful? Will the implications of her discoveries slowly dissolve her family or is she able to save these fragile relationships before it is too late? Join Lily once again as she juggles school, friends, family (meetings), the general challenges of growing-up, creepy stalkers, some tragedies and maybe even her first encounter with something akin to a crush in these rather eventful months of her life.

(BOOK 3 OF MAFIA LOVE SERIES) COMPLETED READ MIA REGINA AND ESCORT ME BABY BEFORE YOU READ THIS. This book CANNOT be read as a standalone. * The real story and rule begins now. Once you're in the mafia, death is the only way out. * "Make me hate you so that I don't fall for you again." "You can't fall in love again if you never fell out of it, my love." * My King. Mio Re. * In attempts to protect my only family, I pushed the love of my life away. It killed me, but I knew it killed him more. Now that I see him again, all the love and pain is rushing back and I can't stop it. He's not the man I once loved. I barely recognize this lifeless body that is somehow living. I broke him. I killed him. And I regret it. * A lot happens in four years. People change, circumstances change, feelings change, lovers change, but one thing remains the same. First love and pain. Secrets are kept hidden from the people they shouldn't be and new ones cave in, but when the thin veil is lifted from them, all hell is bound to break loose, especially in the mafia world where hell resides on earth. * Arie and Leo meet once again when they least expect to. The fire that once burned within, ignites back up with more fuel to add to it. The cravings, lust, and love is more powerful than it has ever been, but they're bound by relations and family to even look at one another. Two weeks is all they have to get through and then they don't have to see each other ever again. Hate is what they want to feel, but how can you hate someone you desperately love? She gets pulled back into the mafia world that she desperately wanted to escape, but the darkness and the man at the middle of it all are very alluring. Once you're in it, things are bounds to happen, relations are bound to break, people are bound to be killed, and family is bound to be saved or torn apart completely.
