Finding Myself

Ariana LaRosa was kidnapped as a four year old girl in Italy. She is smuggled to America and kept locked away. She never gave up hope of seeing her poppa and older brother, Luca, again.

Ariana learned how to survive around Ricardo's drunken temper. And Maria's cruel tongue and leather strap. When Ricardo has visitors from Italy, he locks her in the attic.

Until one fateful day when Ariana has a chance to get free. She gets his phone and dials the only name she knows.... Luca.

Luca, Enzo, and Teo, have been friends forever! Lorenzo Mugno was around when Ariana was taken. He and Luca were nine years old when the wreck happened. He has never forgotten little Ariana LaRosa. Enzo's pop, worked for the LaRosa Familia, Enzo's entire life. It only seems fitting that Enzo work for them too.

Teo Caolo never met Ariana in person. His family became acquainted with the LaRosa Familia a few years after the tragedy. But he has heard of her for the past twelve years of his friendship with Luca and Enzo.
