Marabella Athena Russo's life has never been easy. Taken from her father and seven older brothers at just five years old, she's been fighting to survive in a world where loyalty is scarce, and trust is even rarer. Now, at 16, she's a force to be reckoned with in the dangerous underworld, known as The Devil's Creation, and undefeated in everything from business deals to street fights. But when life throws her back into the arms of the family she was stolen from, Marabella finds herself facing more than just her past.

Her best friend Bryn has been by her side through it all, the only constant in a life filled with chaos. What Marabella doesn't expect is for her bond with Bryn to change as they face the demons of their past together. Bryn has always been more than a friend-more than a sister-but now, as secrets unfold and danger looms closer, their feelings begin to shift.

Torn between the world she once knew and the growing feelings for the one person she never saw as anything more, Marabella must decide what's more important: her past or her future. And when tragedy strikes, leaving her to navigate a tangled web of lies, blood ties, and the growing desire she has for Bryn, she realizes just how far she's willing to go to protect those she loves.

In this world of crime, betrayal, and dangerous love, Marabella must learn to trust again-but this time, she might not have to do it alone.

- Sincerely, Bella
