Amelia's 18th birthday should have been a day of joyful celebration. Instead, it becomes a nightmare of betrayal and violence at the hands of her powerful, ruthless father - a mafia boss-turned-politician desperate to keep his dark secrets buried. As the daughter of a prominent and corrupt government official, Amelia is expected to be the perfect, obedient daughter - smiling for the cameras and hiding the truth about her father's nefarious dealings. But on the night of her birthday, Amelia dares to defy her father's suffocating control, leading to a brutal confrontation that leaves her bruised, trembling, and questioning everything. Thrust into a dangerous web of political intrigue and criminal machinations, Amelia finds an unexpected ally in Giorgio Valentino, the charming but enigmatic son of a rival politician- a guest at her mansion. As their furtive glances give way to a smoldering attraction, Amelia and Giorgio must navigate the treacherous waters of their families' rivalry, all while uncovering devastating secrets that threaten to destroy them both, when they have found where their hearts belong. Torn between duty and desire, Amelia must choose - will she continue to play the part of the obedient daughter, or will she risk everything to forge her own path, even if it means going to war with her own flesh and blood?
