Diano Marina at the Northern Coast of Italy is a small town place, yet with much luxury. It's able to fit three times into the nearby city of Monaco. The people, and the city itself, only come alive at sundown. The beaches are rich with deckchairs and employees fulfilled your wishes. It has become quite popular over the years for the wealthy families which seek rest and comfort in cities without bustle.
Cecilia (Cecil) van Burgh, born as the daughter of two business keepers, has spent seventeen years of wealth and luxury as she explored the nation. As a compensation for her parents' absence she visited the most breath-taking and extraordinary places. Luckily, the kindness in her heart was never bought. Ever since the age of five it began to be a family tradition to travel to the coast of Italy every two to five years. Unfortunately due to a crisis in her family and in her parents' company, Cecil wasn't able to visit her second home for a couple of years. Yet this year, she went on a trip she never saw coming.

When The Sun Goes Down - A Midnight Mafia Novel
----- In serious need of revision! ----- Wanna-be journalist Kate Santoro would do anything for the scoop. Anything. Including finding her way into an underground club exclusive to only those in the Genovese mafia and the beautiful women they employee. What could be more perfect? She would stick to the shadows, snap a few videos, and write the biggest story New York has ever seen, therein making her a legend! Easy as pie. Until she gets found. A series of blatant lies and lucky breaks later and she is mistaken to be one of the workers underneath. While many might be terrified of this predicament Kate couldn't be more excited. The freedom to roam the area and talk to the members of the infamous brotherhood will leave no rock unturned. All she has to do is keep her cover until the night is over and the workers go home. What a fantastic position she is in! There are just two problems. One being him. Alessio. The Don, the Godfather, the Capo di tutti capi (the boss of bosses) who has taken a keen interest in Kate. Even that is something she could probably handle for one night. Except problem number two. They don't leave. Not at the end of the night, the end of the week, or even the end of the month. Alessio's interest in Kate threatens to expose her, something she would surely die from. He knows she doesn't belong but it's not as though she could have just waltzed in, right? By the time Kate realizes that not even the greatest scoop is worth the price, she is in far too deep to call it quits now. ~~~Praise for When The Sun Goes Down~~~ Natasha427: "It was so captivating that I may or may not have spent the last several hours holed up in my room frantically scrolling down to read more.
