Camila Cortez had built a life defined by ambition, discipline, and legacy-just not that legacy.
Top of her class. Fluent in five languages. Columbia pre-med graduate. Ice skater, model, and the golden girl of the Spanish mafia's most powerful family.
But power has a price.
When her father, Gabriel Cortez-once the most feared man in Granada, now quietly ruling from New York-faces threats too great to ignore, an alliance is arranged. One that requires his daughter to marry into the DeLuca family.
Enter Mattheo DeLuca.
Cold, precise, untouchable. Groomed by brutality and shaped by solitude, Mattheo has spent his life serving his father's empire. He doesn't believe in love, family, or softness. Camila represents everything he doesn't trust-and everything he can't afford to want.
Thrown into a world of inherited violence and half-truths, Camila must navigate an engagement she never asked for, in a world she was raised to avoid. But one thing is clear:
She may have been born into the mafia.
But no one gets to control how she survives it.
Loyalty runs deep. But love? Love could burn it all down..
And in this world?
One wrong move is all it takes to lose everything.
