A SWEETER POISON:
Who are you when no one is watching?
....

How do you destroy a monster, without becoming a monster yourself?
....

All her life, Maya has been fighting to keep her head above the surface. It was never a choice to fail, success was everything, as she was taught being brought up and abused by Rolf Hyde, a man who claims he saved her from the horrors of the world, aged just 10 after being kidnapped from her family and left to fend for herself from the age of 4. This leads her down a dangerous path, using unorthadox methods to battle her problems.

Marco Rodrigues has never let his gaze shift from his work as don of the spanish mafia. His family time and time again struck by tragedy - first losing their younger sister to a kidnapping, then their parents, Marco is left to care for what's left - five younger siblings.

But what will happen when the opportunity of a lifetime arises? What will happen when Maya re discovers her family, the infamous Rodrigues', aka the spanish mafia with five brothers and a sister? What will happen when they discover who she really is? And above all, what will happen when sparks begin to fly in a budding romance? Will she break under the pressure of hiding, as she has all her life; will she fall as she attempts to balance the secrets she keeps against her strengthening emotions which shout to be heard?

Arabella D'Angelo is just a shell of a girl, a mere presence floating through the halls of her Los Angeles home. Her once bright grey eyes and sunshine-like spirit was crushed by the weight of her abusive parents. Living in a constant state of fear and despair, the sixteen year old girl endured the endless cycle of violence and cruelty that had plagued her everyday. She had learned to keep her head down, her voice silent and her pain buried deep within her fragile heart. Quiet and reserved were the only terms that could describe her closed-off persona. But then, in a cruel yet fortunate twist of fate, a tragedy struck. Arabella's parents were killed in a mysterious but deadly car crash, the wreckage leaving behind nothing but burnt ashes. Their abrupt deaths opened the doors to a new chapter in Arabella's eventful life, as her custody was now handed over to her elder brother, Damon D'Angelo. While Damon had everything a man could ever wish for, he didn't have that one thing, or person in this case, that he longed for everyday. His baby sister, whom he would kill or get killed for, no hesitation whatsoever. Him and his brothers were never this happier when they heard about their sister's arrival in their abode. Finally, things are looking up for them. The question is, for how long? Join the journey of the D'Angelo siblings, who go through hell and back, facing every single challenge thrown at their face and overcoming it with everyone by their sides. After all, it is the D'Angelo blood they got running through veins.
