Alina Vesca has always been soft, kind, and... a chubby, the only child of a powerful mafia family who secretly loves her rotten. She never wanted the Vesca life, preferring the warmth of her bakery to the cold streets of New York's underworld.
Now, she's in an arranged marriage with Enzo Marcello, the cold, dominant heir of a rival mafia family. He's used to control, women who bend and break, and a world where love is dangerous.
But Alina isn't like anyone he's ever known. She's gentle, unassuming, and real. And for the first time, Enzo finds himself noticing her in ways he shouldn't.
In the shadowed streets of Rome, two heirs born into bloodlines of war are forced into an uneasy alliance. Isabella Moretti, ruthless and untouchable, carries her family's legacy like a blade. Luca Rinaldi, heir to her father's oldest enemy, wears his power like a weapon - cold, calculated, and lethal.
When a new threat rises to claim the city, they must stand together or watch their empires crumble. But in a world built on lies and blood, the most dangerous thing they can do isn't betray each other...
It's fall in love.
