Lady Lily Lupine, a young and gorgeous widow with too much time on her hands and an abundance of love to give, fills the void in her life with an array of willing lovers. Men embittered by life and its woes, seeking respite with her, while slaking their thirsts and hunger on the joy and freedom she provides to them
It is a happy arrangement valued by all involved... until one of her treasured gems is found lying a pool of his own blood on the marble tile floor of Lily's foyer.
Lily's life as she knows it threatens to come crashing down around her when Scotland Yard sends a detective from the darkest period of her life to find out exactly what happened to her shattered gem and whether she, herself, had a hand in what appears to be his murder.

Elena Bianchi, the gentle daughter of a powerful Italian politician, returns to Florence hoping to build a new life far from her family's tainted legacy. But fate has other plans when she crosses paths with Adrian Moretti-a man so charismatic, so precise in his affection, that she falls hopelessly in love. What she doesn't know is that Adrian is her enemy. Behind his warm smiles and tender kisses is a heart consumed by rage.

With the full support of his cruel and twisted family, Adrian marries her... only to drag her into a nightmare. After the wedding, the truth unravels.

But something begins to shift. Adrian starts to see the innocence in her eyes, the kindness in her broken smile-and guilt claws at his soul. Now he must choose: destroy the woman he once vowed to ruin, or risk everything, even his family's wrath, to save her. In a world built on betrayal and blood, can love survive the weight of vengeance?Complete
