Luciano Moretti - the ruthless and feared mafia boss of the Italian underworld - has built his empire on blood, silence, and fear. He is known as Il Fantasma - the Ghost - because no one has ever seen his humanity. Cold, unreadable, and merciless, he rules with an iron fist and trusts no one.

That is, until fate delivers him something he didn't know he needed - her.

Rosalia Bennett, a bright, kind, and free-spirited florist who accidentally witnesses a mafia murder while delivering flowers to a wealthy client, suddenly becomes Luciano's problem. To protect his secret, he takes her captive - planning to keep her locked away until he decides what to do with her.

But Rosalia is unlike anyone he's ever known. Where his world is filled with blood and shadows, she brings color, laughter, and warmth. Her soft defiance irritates him at first - she sings in his mansion, talks to his guards, and even leaves flowers on his desk. But slowly, her innocence begins to chip away at his walls.

He tries to break her spirit.
She, unknowingly, starts to heal his soul.

Soon, the line between captor and captive blurs - she begins to see the man beneath the monster, and he begins to crave her like an addiction he cannot control. As enemies close in, Rosalia becomes his weakness and his only light - the rose blooming in his darkness.

When the time comes to set her free, Luciano realizes that freedom for her might mean losing the only piece of heaven he's ever known. And for a man like him, love is the most dangerous weapon of all.

In the ruins of a fractured world, defiance is a death sentence. Excelling in the fine arts of covert observation, she collects secrets and trades in betrayals. This data broker doesn't believe in fairness or morality. After all, that's the only way to survive - and thrive - in a limited human space, constantly besieged by strange fauna. She's spent a lifetime running from the powers that be and slipping through the cracks. However, a fateful misstep pulls this furtive shadow into the sights of a man set to inherit the hopeless war. His ascent to the throne is paved with the bodies of those who stood against him - and those who didn't. This capricious warlord intends to cut the trespasser's insolence out with a blade. Slowly and carefully - because death would be far too kind. He wants her taught a lesson. Disfigured. Broken. Owned. Yet she vanishes into the overcrowded streets. A hounded prey becomes an umbrage with a vendetta and wages a one-woman war on his reputation. From the darkness, she turns the rising officer's name and affairs into rot. She never lets him forget she's still out there. Watching. The nobleman handles it all without faltering. However, the manhunt gradually twists into a slow, burning obsession. The woman's daring, her rage fascinate him. Consume him. All grudging sentiments warp into respect... and something stronger. When enemies close in on all sides, he calls upon his shadow with an alluring promise of truce. Trust is a knife. And he hands it to her - willingly.

Sergio Agosta was a killer who hid behind a charming smile - but a killer nonetheless. He'd learnt the hard way that actions always had consequences. Which was why he was going after the one thing that would be his one and only shot at revenge - the daughter of his archenemy. He had planned to use her, to bend her to his will and to get what he wanted in the end. But what he didn't know was that things don't always go according to plan. Gianna Ricci had always been sheltered from the monstrosities of life. The most she had to deal with was the increasing pressure of being a law student and fake friends. That is, until she meets the devil who seems hell bent on ruining her life. He manages to turn her entire world upside down and ignites a fire in her - a fire that can't be doused. She begins to question everything when ugly secrets are revealed. Secrets that could potentially ruin them.
