Born into one of the leading mob families in Chicago, Alessandra Romano is a mafia princess known for her beauty. What many consider a gift means her doom when she's forced to marry Giovanni Lucciano to bring peace between two mafia dynasties.
Having always done what is expected of her, Alessandra dresses the part, only dates college boys with exemplary backgrounds, and doesn't ask questions. she would rather die than give up the power she has spent her whole life building.
Suffocated by the rules and unanswered questions, Alessandra does what she's always wanted to. She boards a plane to Milan.
She never expected to fall for a man on the way. Giovanni Lucciano, has good looks, unexplained wealth, tattoos on his hands, and secrets in his eyes. But it doesn't take long for his caress to become a rough grasp muffling her screams.
Alessandra is terrified of marrying a monster like him. He may be one of the most sought-after bachelors in New York, thanks to his good looks, wealth, and predator-like charisma. But Alessandra knows the bad boy aura isn't just a game; blood and death lurk beneath Gio's striking brown eyes and arrogant smile. In her world a handsome exterior often hides the monster within; a monster who can just as easily kill as kiss you.
