Autumn Beaumont is a brilliant, fiercely independent young woman determined to leave her mark on the world. With a full scholarship to a prestigious university in Rome, she's ready to start over-rebuilding her life after losing both her parents in the same year. She has her goals set, her heart guarded, and her future mapped out.

But fate has other plans.

When Autumn crosses paths with Antonio DeRucci-the most feared Mafia boss in Italy-her carefully built world begins to unravel. Ruthless, powerful, and dangerously magnetic, Antonio is a man who takes whatever he wants... and now, he wants her.

What begins as a chance encounter soon turns into something far more sinister. One moment, Autumn is studying beneath the golden glow of Rome's evening lights-and the next, she's swept into a world of luxury, violence, and secrets that could cost her everything.

Antonio never believed he was capable of love-until the American girl with fire in her eyes made him question everything he's ever known. But obsession can be a dangerous thing... and when power, passion, and possession collide, someone always gets burned.All Rights Reserved

Inferno of Sin by fearamzi

Introduction In the shadows of power and privilege, desire becomes a dangerous game. Alessandra Vittori had built her life on control-of her image, her career, and her emotions. As Italy's most sought-after publicist, she was untouchable, crafting legends and salvaging reputations with a single stroke of her brilliance. But when she steps into the orbit of Vincenzo DeLuca, the enigmatic heir to a ruthless mafia dynasty, her carefully curated world begins to unravel. Vincenzo is no ordinary man. Cold, calculating, and untouchable, he is a predator in a tailored suit, with the power to shape the world-and destroy anyone who defies him. Drawn to Alessandra's fire and resistance, he sees in her a challenge, an opportunity to bend the unbendable. For Alessandra, he represents everything she swore to avoid: chaos, danger, and an unrelenting pull she can't escape. Their worlds collide in a dark dance of seduction, where every touch blurs the lines between obsession and surrender, between love and control. In the twisted corridors of power, they must navigate the thin line between betrayal and trust, even as the stakes grow higher-and deadlier. In the end, who will dominate, and who will be consumed by the shadows?
