Leslie was raised solely by her loving, but mysterious mother, Sheryl Locks. They seemed to be all each other had in the whole world, until Leslie was 18, and her mother was killed in a fiery car accident. The young woman felt absolutely alone--until she realized... she wasn't.
A stalker emerged and began dictating her life. For 8 long years, she lived in his command. Terrified, threatened, and no way to find out what was going on in her life, she became a robot. Living where ever HE wanted her to, doing whatever HE said when his letters came. She could feel him watching her, constantly. She never knew what to expect; she was anxious, scared, started having panic attacks, and was always looking over her shoulder. Leslie tried to live a normal life--school, work, friends--but bad things followed her, and so did HE.
Now, she is 26 with a career, apartment, and cat. It's been two whole years since the stalker has made any contact... until she receives an email. Her life spirals out of control. This time, he wants to make an appearance. This time, he wants her to come with him. This time, she begins to unravel a web of secrets, lies, death, and more!
Will Leslie ever find out who HE is? Will she ever find out who SHE really is?
I didn't exactly choose to be stolen at four years old.
But the French underworld isn't big on consent.
One minute I was Donatella Acardi, Mafia royalty. The next? Just another stolen kid bleeding in someone else's basement.
That's where I met Amir. We bonded over near-death experiences and shared trauma.
Real cute stuff.
Then Demetri found us-trained us, broke us, built us back. We became something the underworld whispered about when they thought no one was listening.
Angela Della Morte.
Morte Nera.
The Angel of Death and the Black Death.
It has a ring to it, doesn't it?
We're not kids anymore. We're not victims either. And we have one job: burn the French Mafia to the ground. Starting with the Don who ruined everything.
But revenge doesn't follow a clean checklist. Especially not when I'm suddenly face-to-face with the family I swore I'd never see again...
Yay.
Now I'm stuck balancing the ghost of who I was with the assassin I've become... while navigating a castle full of lies, power plays, surveillance systems, olive oil, and one very inconvenient slow-burn romance.
The mission? Still on.
But if I'm not careful, I might survive the job and still lose what's left of me.
And let's be honest-I worked way too hard to become this unkillable.
