Gianna Toricelli has spent her whole life surviving.

Surviving a father who taught her what fear looked like.

Surviving a home where love always came with conditions. Surviving the kind of wounds that never leave scars anyone else can see.

Trust isn't something she gives.

It's something she buried a long time ago.

Then her mother marries into the Capone family.

Overnight, Gianna finds herself trapped inside an empire where power is inherited, secrets are currency, and every man is more dangerous than the last.

None more than Raphael Capone.

The brilliant mind behind the Capone empire.

A man who can predict everyone...

Except her.

Raphael was never supposed to become her weakness.

He was supposed to remain a mistake.

A secret hidden behind locked doors.

A line neither of them could afford to cross.

But stolen nights become impossible to forget, hatred blurs into obsession, and every lie they tell pulls them further into a relationship that could destroy them both.

Because some secrets are worth killing for.

And theirs is sleeping in the bedroom across the hall.
