shattered shards

Fourteen-year-old Eliana Smith has always felt out of place - too loud, too bright, too hopeful for a house that never wanted her. Living with parents who treated her like a burden, she learned early that love could hurt... and silence was safer than dreams.

But one ordinary school day changes everything. After being beaten up by a group of girls over a role in a school play, Eliana is found unconscious and bleeding in the bathroom. She is taken to the hospital, The truth unravels fast - years of neglect, scars that shouldn't be on a child - and when her DNA results come back, the world tilts.

She's not Eliana Smith.
She's Eliana Giordano - the missing daughter of Stefano and Kamila Giordano, Hollywood royalty with a secret darker than anyone knows.

Because behind the flashing cameras and red carpets...
The Giordanos run the most powerful mafia syndicate in LA.

Now, Eliana's thrown into a world of luxury and chaos.

But healing isn't easy.
Not when you've spent your life believing you're unworthy of love.
Not when everyone wants a piece of the "lost princess."
And definitely not when the past doesn't plan on letting her go so easily.
