Lethal assassins, Isabella and Jace, have been in vain for years trying to kill each other. But with a mutual enemy threatening their families Mafia's, they find themselves in an unexpected alliance together - and soon they discover killing each other isn't the only temptation they need to resist...

Isabella Russo is known to be the next New York Mafia leader, and she's more than living up to her name. A skilled assassin who's smart-as-hell, feisty, and determined only missed one target - a cocky, arrogant, and overly-confident, Jace Volkov. 

Lethal, deadly, and smart enough to hide it, Jace Volkov is a devil with an angel face and dressed in perfectly tailored suits of a gentleman. He has little use for morals and even less use for love or relationships, which is a striking quality for an heir to a dangerous Italian Mafia.

Russo and Volkov have been set on hating each other for years, and had no intention to stop, but when both Mafias are faced with a dangerous threat, they're forced to put aside their differences and work together to defend their families and defeat their threat. 

Jace may be bad news, but Isabella never was afraid of a little danger.
No reward without risk...right?

As the flame they continue playing with grows to a scorching wildfire, one thing is clear: trying to kill each other may have been difficult to control, but resisting each other is a whole new level.

He was staring at me with an expression of pure hatred. I stared back. I must admit, even with such a nasty look on his face, he was rather attractive. His powerful arms were crossed, the unzipped leather jacket tight around the biceps. I could just make out dark tattoos poking out of the white collar of his uniform, brushing against his sharp jawline. His dark brown hair, do dark it was nearly black, looked as if he had sat in front of the mirror styling it, or perhaps he had just got out of bed. Still, as I turned to sit, I couldn't help but feel as if those deep, storm blue eyes were still watching me, burning a hole in my back. I didn't know his name, but the look he gave me made me feel as if he knew everything, and I mean everything about me. Word count: 90,000 warnings: mature themes and violence

He seemed like the devil. He was evil. Cruel. She was always portrayed as a weapon. A tool. An occasional use. One wrong turn -literally- and everything changes. What happens when she finally decides to stand up for herself? The once known 'shy' assassin is now a runaway killer. Will she be able to protect the people she loves while fighting for her title? That arrogant and dangerous man, Zion Armani, who has a past trailing to hers...They meet again. Forgiveness is a difficult concept. Two broken souls from two different sides. Many failed attempts, many murderous frenzies, and many unretrievable mistakes. Her concept of life is far-fetched compared to others, one of the many things that makes her so human and so real, even if she was taught to refuse it. Could she battle the wars in the underground world while an addicting man fought against her? A chase? Not necessarily. Will she find a reason to keep going? Will Zhara Di Maggio find something --or someone-- to believe in? Will the Golden Raven prove her fate wrong and find her own reason to live? ~~~ Zion Armani, even the darkest hide from his shadows. Zhara Di Maggio, the only brightness left. "You know how to live, you're just too scared to do it."
