**Story Premise
Isabella "Isa" Moretti has spent her entire life under the cruel thumb of her abusive stepfather, Antonio Moretti. After years of torment, Isa believes her only path to survival is silence and submission. But when Antonio's mounting debts to the notorious mafia don Luca De Santis become too great to pay, he uses Isa as collateral, handing her over to the cold and ruthless crime boss.
Luca, a powerful and feared mafia leader, is used to controlling everything and everyone in his world. To him, Isa is another piece of property-a pawn in his empire. But the more time he spends around her, the more he becomes captivated by her quiet strength and fragile beauty. What begins as possessiveness soon grows into a dangerous obsession.
As Luca tries to dominate Isa's world, she begins to realize that while she may have traded one prison for another, she is stronger than she ever imagined. With her past trauma haunting her and Luca's possessive hold tightening, Isa struggles to reclaim her sense of self. Luca, who has never allowed himself to be vulnerable, is forced to confront the depth of his feelings for Isa as his control starts to crumble.
Meanwhile, Antonio schemes from the shadows, determined to get Isa back and exact revenge on Luca. With threats closing in from all sides, Isa and Luca must navigate a world of violence, betrayal, and emotional turmoil. Their relationship becomes a battle of power and survival, but it also holds the potential for redemption and healing.
In a world where control means survival and trust is a luxury, Isa must learn to reclaim her life, and Luca must decide whether he can let go of his obsession and let Isa in. Together, they must face not only the enemies at their door but also the darkness within themselves.
**"Shattered Vows"** is a story of power, possession, and ultimately love, where two broken souls find strength in each other-if they can survive long enough to heal.
This book can be read as a standalone, however, I advise you to read His Possession first. This would help you understand the context and not spoil the first book if you choose to read it after this one.
~~~~~~~~
One year has passed since Adena Madden left Italy and her past behind. One year since she left the man she fell in love with.
She lived away from everyone she once knew.
She wanted to take a break. One that let her enjoy the freedom and live like a regular person. Perhaps the lavish life that Nico offered her was too much for a girl like Dena.
Except her life was never going to be simple. She was the weakness of the ruthless Italian mafia don. One that had more enemies than any person on the planet.
She was the one thing people could hold against him. One thing that would make him do anything in return for her safety.
She thought that her relationship was left behind.
Yet she never thought she could be so easily fooled into thinking no one would eventually take advantage of Nico's biggest weakness.
Nico Savellini has gone through a lot in his life. He never thought that a girl would hurt him more than a bullet.
After a year of her absence, he tried to move on and yet no matter how much he tried, He couldn't.
But he never thought that the Russian mafia don would be smart enough to use her against him. No matter how much he should've expected it, he hoped he could protect her.
His father told him he can never be with her, but can you really tell the heart what to do?
And now that she's in danger, He has to get her back.
Even if he has to put his life and empire at stake.
