Sofia Moretti never wanted a life in the shadows, but when her father is murdered by the ruthless Giordano cartel, revenge becomes her only purpose. To destroy the men who took everything from her, she sets her sights on Adrian DeLuca-the cold, calculating leader of their biggest rival gang. Her plan? To make him fall in love with her and turn his power against her enemies. But Adrian isn't an easy man to deceive. He sees through lies, plays by his own rules, and refuses to be a pawn in anyone's game. As Sofia navigates a dangerous world of betrayal, bloodshed, and forbidden desire, she finds herself trapped between duty and passion. Because the more she fights to manipulate him, the deeper she falls in love with the mafia boss.

I replied, glancing over at the tall, grey-haired man who was in deep conversation with a steely-eyed woman who looked like she was bored out of her mind. "If this works, we could both make it in by next summer.""Yeah, like the admissions officer is just going to hand you an opportunity to attend the most prestigious school in America," Valentina said.
