𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐚 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭 has known only one thing for a decade-destroy everyone who betrayed her. Everyone has mistaken her silence for a weakness.
Their downfall is inevitable. With each step, ruin draws nearer.
For as long as The Underworld has existed, the D'Aureville name was the most valued and held authority over every aspect; not a single incident or event escaped its radar. But on one tragic day, that changed. The dominance their name held burned down along with the family. Or so everyone thought.
A daughter was left alive and locked away, molded into their twisted imaginations-something inhuman. They made her into what she is today: an uncontrollable killer.
She played into their cruel games, gaining a small sliver of their trust. No one could stop the river of blood that followed in her wake. The trail brought forth hushed whispers that slowly grew louder as the well-known fallen assassin's signature was left behind with each of her victims. She wanted them to know she was coming.
But this is only the beginning. Not a soul is going to get in her way, not even the daunting and sinisterly handsome Don of the Italian Mafia.
𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢 has lived through many obstacles. He has beaten the demons that reside within him and around him. Surviving them has made him a Don of the Italian Mafia-an untouchable leader. You can't tame a killer who is as mysterious as the fog in the darkest forest, cold as the piercing winter storm, and striking as the fallen angel Lucifer. No one could until she came along.
His reputation wasn't just made up of stories. Anyone who spread rumors about The Don was struck down to their knees, kneeling and begging for mercy that was never granted, as he made sure they saw and felt what lay behind the lies.
The dead will turn alive, and the living will turn dead.
What will happen when their paths collide and secrets are revealed?
When Chef Margot loses her beloved restaurant to her cheating ex-fiance, her best friend, single dad Nathan, steps in with an unexpected offer to help her start over. As they collaborate, sparks fly-but can they overcome their complicated pasts for a chance at real love?
