"He owns the city. She's the only thing he can't control."
Everyone knows Adrian Marcelli.
The ruthless heir to New York's most powerful mafia empire. Cold. Dangerous. Untouchable.
Everyone fears him.
Everyone except Emily Pascarelli.
She argues with him, laughs at him, and refuses to treat him like the monster everyone else sees. What begins as curiosity becomes fascination. Fascination becomes obsession. And before Adrian realizes what's happening, protecting Emily is no longer a responsibility—it's the only thing that matters.
But Emily was born into the one family Adrian should never trust.
As old rivalries resurface and hidden betrayals drag them into a war neither of them started, Adrian faces a choice no amount of power can solve.
He can protect his empire.
Or he can protect the woman who became his greatest weakness.
Because the most dangerous man in New York has fallen in love...
And once Adrian Marcelli decides someone is his, he'll burn down the world before he lets anyone take her away.
