Allegra Moretti has spent her life keeping her head down in the shadows of Palermo's underworld until a letter from her dead mother shatters the fragile walls around her freedom. The warning is clear: When he comes to claim you, do not run. He is already inside you. Leonardo De Santis is the heir to a dynasty built on blood and desire. Ruthless, magnetic, and bound by an ancient vow, he arrives not to court Allegra, but to own her.
With every command, every touch, he awakens a craving she can't deny. and a danger she can't escape. But Leonardo isn't the only predator circling her. His brother Giovanni watches from the shadows, patient and calculating, determined to unravel her loyalties and claim her for himself. In a world where passion is a weapon and love is a battlefield, Allegra must decide: surrender to the man who set her body on fire, or the one who wants to burn it all down.
Power has a price. And in this family, pleasure might just be the deadliest currency of all.
