"He was born into power, but all he ever wanted was love." Evan Chraystler Al Monleon, son of the most feared Mafia king, was raised in a world soaked in blood and shadows. From a young age, he knew the language of violence and command, but not the warmth of a mother’s love. As a surrogate child, he could have anything he wanted, except the one thing he longed for most: his mother’s acceptance. "Mom, I'm still your child. I came from you; why can't you accept me as your own?" His cries for love were buried beneath the weight of silence and rejection. Then came Andrea Maureen Salvegas, a former heiress turned servant, forced to pay her family’s debts with a lifetime of submission to the Al Monleons. She never expected to be caught in the web of danger and longing that surrounded Evan. And she certainly didn’t expect to tame the most feared among the Mafia King’s sons. But love doesn't always bloom in safe places. Sometimes, it grows in the darkest corners... where even the coldest hearts can learn to feel.
