The Last Oath
Alessia Moretti has always known her role: the dutiful daughter of one of Italy's most feared mafia bosses, a porcelain jewel locked away in silk and shadow. Her life has been carefully arranged-glittering parties, whispered alliances, and the unspoken truth that her every choice reflects on the empire her father built from blood and fire. But when fate draws her into the path of Dario Vitale, the son of her father's sworn enemy, the fragile order of her world begins to shatter. Dario is everything she has been warned against-ruthless, magnetic, and bound by a family oath to destroy the Morettis at any cost. Their first meeting is a spark, their second a blaze, and soon Alessia finds herself consumed by a passion that is as forbidden as it is irresistible. Their love is a betrayal written in the language of bullets and blood. To be discovered means certain death, not only for them but for everyone caught between their families' feud. Yet secrecy cannot hold forever, and every stolen glance, every midnight encounter, draws them closer to exposure-and to a war that could burn the city to ash. As loyalty and desire wage war in her heart, Alessia must choose: her family's empire, or the man she was never meant to love. But in a world where betrayal is survival and oaths are carved in blood, no choice comes without sacrifice.
Burning Together
A gripping dark mafia romance where love and war collide at gunpoint. Set against the backdrop of feuding empires, betrayal runs thicker than blood-and falling in love can be the deadliest mistake. Alessia Romano, a lethal assassin raised by one of the most feared mafia families in the world, is cold, precise, and unbreakable. Trained to kill and taught never to trust, she's a woman carved from vengeance and shadows. Ace De Luca, a ruthless mafia don with an iron will and a haunted past, rules through fear, strategy, and a taste for calculated brutality. He leads with quiet fire and never allows anyone close-until her. Their first meeting is a bullet away from murder. Their second, a declaration of war. But when a mutual enemy rises from the ruins-an heir bred in darkness and armed with vengeance-Alessia and Ace are forced into a dangerous alliance that burns hotter than hate ever could. From blood pacts to ambushes, from betrayal to unbearable loss, their connection becomes their greatest strength-and most tempting weakness. In a world built on lies, violence, and twisted legacies, love isn't a blessing. It's a weapon. ----------- It's my first book Give suggestions where you feel like not hate comments and I hope you enjoy. Happy reading π€Complete
