Élevée parmi les montagnes paisibles de Pedesina, en Italie, Donna Amorielle est la seule fille de Don Vittorio Amorielle et d’Ellis Barker, un couple forgé dans le feu de la mafia et d’un amour improbable. Loin des rues chaotiques de New York, elle a grandi aux côtés de ses frères — Jake, Marco et Jason — sous le poids d’un héritage qu’elle ne pourra jamais revendiquer et l’ombre d’un destin qu’elle refuse d’accepter. Prise entre le sang mafieux qui coule dans ses veines et la détermination américaine héritée de sa mère, Donna ne veut pas être simplement la fille d’un don, ni une pièce dans un jeu d’alliances. Elle veut davantage : elle veut choisir qui elle sera. À 25 ans, Donna confronte son père, le redouté Don Vittorio, exigeant une chance de retourner aux États-Unis et de tracer son propre chemin. Réticents, Vittorio et Ellis cèdent, croyant que la distance les protégera du passé qu’ils ont laissé derrière eux. Mais ce qui commence comme une quête de liberté se transforme rapidement en une plongée périlleuse dans les eaux troubles de la mafia. Sur le sol américain, Donna découvre que les péchés de ses parents résonnent encore, et de vieux ennemis sont prêts à réclamer une dette dont elle ignorait l’existence. Déterminée à prouver sa valeur, elle devra choisir : se battre pour le nom Amorielle ou le réduire en cendres pour construire le sien. Une histoire de loyauté, de vengeance et d’autodécouverte, Donna parle du prix du pouvoir et du courage de défier le destin — même lorsque le sang parle plus fort.
