At All Costs

Five years of peace.

Seven children.

An empire built on love and power.

Avianna thought she had carved out a life of balance-mother, wife, and restaurant owner by day, partner to a Don by night.

Apollo Mancini's, now head of the empire, rules with fear in the streets but tenderness at home. To their world, they look untouchable.

But every empire breeds enemies.

And some enemies wait until the time is perfect.

When a shadow from the past resurfaces, the Mancini's' fragile peace is shattered.

Layla, now eighteen and too headstrong for her own good, finds herself caught in the crosshairs. Amora, thriving in her fashion empire, is pulled into a conflict she cannot design her way out of.

And Avianna realizes that the family she's built-the laughter, the love, the fragile normalcy-may be the very thing that makes them vulnerable.

Secrets will be exposed.

Betrayals will cut deep.

And a war will ignite that threatens everything they swore to protect.

The Mancinis thought they had survived the storm.
But the storm was only the beginning.
