Mathilda Lancaster had one rule: stay in control.
After being cast out by her family and publicly branded unstable, control is the only thing she has left. It means keeping her head down, earning her degree, and building a future no one can take away from her.
A receptionist position at Sinclair Group is supposed to be the first step.
Then she meets Maximilian Sinclair.
As CEO of one of New York's most powerful companies, he is known for being ruthless, demanding, and impossible to impress. He has no patience for distractions, and Mathilda has no interest in becoming one.
Until one mistake turns into another.
And another.
By the time two pink lines appear on a pregnancy test, staying in control is no longer an option.
The tension between them was never supposed to mean anything; now Mathilda -Tilly- must accept that some rules are meant to be broken.

One night when her mother goes missing, Giulia's whole life changes... again. Will being under the guardianship of her new older brothers give her a chance at normalcy in her life or will they cause even more mess than before? Healing isn't easy and trust doesn't come free. ☆ ☆ ☆ As I lied there in the hospital bed with a pounding headache, practically suffocating me while barely conscious, I heard that familiar, raspy, deep, sleep deprived voice that I've recently come to find comfort in. "Nessuno oserà toccarti di nuovo senza perdere le mani, amore," they whispered. (No one will dare touch you again without losing their hands, love.) I felt two hands hold my face with a soft kiss on my forehead. Their rough and large hands a contrast to their gentleness. The comforter over me shuffled as the familiar person brought them up to my chin and tucked me in. "Riposati ora sei al sicuro, bambina," they murmured, stroking my hair. Before I knew it, simply the presence of them reassured me as I felt myself drift off again into a deep sleep. (Rest now, you're safe, baby). ☆ ☆ ☆ 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄 (noun): a state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream.
