Gabriella never intended to fall for a made man, but every secret meeting, every stolen moment, every heated encounter with Marco Vitale chips away at her defenses. Drawn into a love built on secrecy and obsession, she soon learns that the most dangerous thing about Marco isn’t his power… it’s what loving him will cost her.
