Five years, and it still burned. Now I was back, and nothing—not her, not anyone—would stand in my way as i reclaimed what was rightfully mine. Kiara Andrés learned from a very long time that the only way to survive in the cruel mafia world was by laying low and going unnoticed. And she had perfected it until her brother's best friend -Dante Carlo- has returned to claim her. He is blind to anything but her and will stop at nothing to have her. The man he was now wasn't the same man she fell in love with five years ago. This Dante was ruthless. Furthermore, trouble is brewing with the Russians, and the only way to claim victory over them is by a marriage alliance between the Andrés of the Mexican cartel and the Italian mafia with…Dante.

Can Kiara trust this new Dante with her heart?
