Lorenzo De Luca is a rugged, resilient man who has endured a hard life, shaped by the weight of his troubled past and the challenges of living with an alcoholic uncle. Viella Leone, on the other hand, is a woman whose joy vanished after the tragic death of her brother and a painful breakup with her ex. Now burdened with the responsibility of caring for her divorced parents, she's lost her sense of self. Both Lorenzo and Viella have been hardened by life's trials, leaving them emotionally distant and unable to experience love in its purest form.
But fate has its own way of bringing people together. Their paths cross, and in the process, they begin to unravel the layers of pain and coldness that have kept them apart from true connection, forcing them to confront their pasts and the possibility of healing.

Shards of Frost
In a world where love is arranged and emotions are buried beneath layers of expectations, Federico, a cold and ruthless man, finds himself tied to a woman he doesn't care about.

His indifference slowly turns into something he can't ignore, and he begins to wonder if he might care more than he thought. When secrets and betrayal test their fragile bond, will they both remain indifferent, or will love force them to confront their feelings?

Melancholy
Elena Romano, a fierce and unyielding lawyer, becomes the only person who can keep Tristan Valenti, a notorious and untouchable mafia kingpin, out of prison. But as she's drawn deeper into his dangerous world, she discovers that the battle isn't just about saving him from the law-it's about saving him from himself. Yet in breaking every rule she's sworn to uphold, Elena risks losing more than her morals-she risks losing her heart to the man who might be beyond redemption. Melancholy - a bittersweet ache that lingers in the soul, like the taste of wine that's both bitter and intoxicating. It's the quiet storm of longing and loss, woven with moments of beauty so fleeting they hurt. Just like what Elena and Tristan want-something so consuming, it borders on destruction. Their love is jagged yet tender, a sanctuary wrapped in shadows where passion wars with despair. It's the sharp edges of love, the bruises of trust, and the haunting allure of wanting what might ruin you, yet never being able to let it go.Complete
