After losing her father years ago, sixteen-year-old Irene has learned to live quietly with her single mother in their small apartment, where life is simple- even if it's a little lonely. But everything changes when her mom meets Marco Moretti, a charming, successful man who seems to have it all. Soon, they're married, and Irene finds herself moving into a mansion with Marco and his seven sons-each mysterious in their own way.
At first, it's awkward but manageable, starting a new school- Irene starts noticing strange things: rules are very different, late-night meetings, whispered phone calls, and unexplained disappearances. The brothers act like they're hiding something... something dangerous.
As Irene uncovers the truth, she realizes her new family isn't just rich or powerful-they're part of a criminal empire. Now, caught between loyalty to her mother and fear of what the Moretti family really is, Irene must decide how far she'll go to protect the people she loves-and herself.
Because in this house, love comes with secrets, and secrets can get you killed.
