Velvet Fire

Olivia Alkantara was ten when her father sent her away. Sicily was too dangerous. The mafia world too close.

Twelve years later, she returns for her brother's funeral-and finds herself forced into the orbit of Marco Motisi, the Alkantara clan's brutal, disciplined capo. The same man who protected her when she was small. The same man who disappeared from her life without a word.

But grief has a way of cracking old boundaries... and enemies don't care about second chances.

As whispers turn into threats and loyalty starts to rot from the inside, Olivia learns that the most dangerous thing in Sicily isn't the guns or the power.

It's falling for the one man who makes her feel safe.
