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.

To get through a heartache after the sudden breakup, Arabella moves to New York City to start another chapter of her life. Driven by the hope to make Adrian Castle, the man who left her broken to pieces with an excuse of protecting her against his world, Arabella suffers a mess and as retribution for her pain, she embarks on a journey of self-destruction by embracing the real her no one knows and accepts the challenge of living in the same world Adrian tried to protect her against. But hating Adrian is more difficult than loving him, little did Arabella know until she's once again trapped in that dark and intense love, unable to escape its never-ending, vicious cycle. She falls victim to her own desire while drowning deeply in Adrian's dangerous world of killing or getting killed--the world full of lies, secrets, and so much deception that she learns along the way. In the end, everyone has a secret, and so does Adrian Castle who learns the real meaning of pain when it's time to face the wrath of his past. Some of the lives he took, the hearts he broke, and the families he destroyed--whether willingly or not--come back to haunt him, and eventually demand the one thing he cherishes the most. The love that feared no danger, the one that overcame excruciating pain will once again be tested by the ugly truth Arabella uncovers about Adrian Castle. Perhaps he's not the man she thought he was, and maybe he's indeed nothing but a cruel, emotionless monster who destroys everything he touches.

"Real men don't fall in love. Love is for the weak and foolish, and I, Don Alessandro, will never raise a fool as a son." Kai Alessandro learned those words the hard way. Groomed by his father to be the mafia leader, Kai's life is built on power, fear, and control. Love? That's a weakness he can't afford. Amelia Carrington is all about survival. By day, she's a college senior juggling classes. By night, she's a hacker-for-hire and part-time stripper, desperate to pay her mother's medical bills. Men? They're just wallets waiting to be emptied. Their worlds collide when Amelia hacks into Kai's account, stealing $5,000,000 to save her mother's life. Kai hunts her down, and instead of exacting revenge, he gives her an offer: work for him to repay the debt or face a fate worse than death. The agreement was to keep things strictly professional; work only. But they eventually had a one-night stand which was supposed to be a mistake since they were both drunk, what was a mistake eventually turned into an regular affair, blurring the lines between their hatred and a passion neither of them could control. Romantic feelings begin to intertwine with their shared hatred, feelings that they both weren't ready to admit to. But what happens when Amelia eventually realizes that she was pregnant for kai Alessandro, one of the most dangerous gang leader in the world and a man who was supposed to be her enemy?
