Claimed by desire

Mariana Bianchi is the kind of lawyer who doesn't just win cases-she destroys her opponents with precision, intelligence, and relentless control. At twenty-eight, she's a rising star in one of Milan's most powerful law firms, the daughter of a modest family who clawed her way to the top. She believes in justice, in the law as a tool to protect the innocent... but in a city where money and power bend the rules, even she must navigate shades of gray.

Then Matteo Rinaldi appears. A man of wealth, influence, and danger, he's a fixer for billionaires, a notorious dangerous man that hint at a life lived on the edge. He doesn't chase. He claims. And when Mariana crosses his path in a high-stakes corporate battle, he decides that she's not just a challenge-she's an obsession.

What starts as a collision of enemies spirals into something neither of them can resist. He thrives on chaos; she thrives on control. But in a game of power, secrets, and temptation, the lines between justice and desire blur. Mariana is about to discover that some battles aren't fought in courtrooms-and some victories come at the cost of surrendering her heart.

Dangerous. Addictive. Irresistible.
