Seventeen-year-old Aria Moretti has spent her life in the shadows of her father's crimes. The Moretti family runs a small but powerful faction of the Italian Mafia in New York. But Aria wants nothing to do with the bloodshed-she dreams of escaping to a life where her name isn't whispered in fear.
Then enters Luca DeLuca, the reckless yet magnetic son of the city's most feared Mafia boss. Handsome, dangerous, and born into power, Luca is everything Aria has been warned to stay away from. But when a fragile truce between their families shatters, Luca is sent to Aria's school as a warning: a reminder that she's not just any girl-she's a Moretti.
