She's a romantic at heart, living in the most unromantic of worlds . . . Nicknamed Sweet Abelli for her docile nature, Caterina smiles on cue and has a charming response for everything. She's the favored daughter, the perfect mafia principessa . . . or was. Now, all she can see in the mirror's reflection is blood staining her hands like crimson paint. They say first impressions are everything . . . In the murky waters of New York's underworld, Caterina's sister is arranged to marry Jennifer Melgren . A Made Woman, a boss, a cheat-even measured against mafia standards. Her reputation stretches far and wide . After her and Caterina's first encounter ends with an accidental glare on her part, she realizes she's just as rude as she is gorgeous.She doesn't like the woman or anything she stands for, though that doesn't stop her heart from pattering like rain against glass when she's near, nor the shiver that ghosts down her spine at the sound of her voice. And she's always near. Telling her what to do. Making her feel hotter than any future sister-in-law should. Caterina may be the Sweet Abelli on the outside, but she's beginning to learn she has a taste for the darkness, for rough hands, cigarettes, and whiskey-colored eyes. Having already escaped one scandal, however, she can hardly afford to be swept up in another. Besides, even if she were hers, everyone knows you don't fall in love with a Made woman . . . right?
