A dark, forbidden age-gap mafia erotic romance packed with steamy encounters, explosive family secrets, high-stakes danger, and a gritty obsession that defies every rule.
Eighteen-year-old Adeline Bianchi grew up in the blood-soaked shadow of the mafia. When her father, a powerful made man, was brutally executed in the streets, it was his loyal "blood brother" Lucius ‘Lucky’ Russo who stepped into the wreckage to pick up the pieces. He provided, he protected, and eventually, he took her mother’s hand in marriage. For years, Lucky was the steadfast rock of the family.
But lately, his dark eyes follow Adeline through the house with a gaze that is anything but fatherly.
Bound by grief, forbidden desire, and shared secrets, Adeline and her stepfather cross a dangerous line. What begins as a stolen kiss in a quiet kitchen ignites into a breathless, scorching affair. Adeline is falling hard, desperate to claim the lethal, protective older man entirely for herself—even as the guilt threatens to consume her.
Then, the fragile illusion of their secret world shatters.
Her father’s convicted killer is suddenly released from prison, sparking an all-out turf war and dragging ugly, long-buried betrayals into the light. When dangerous secrets emerge about the night her father died, Adeline is forced to question if the man in her bed is truly her savior, or the ultimate traitor.
With the family organization turning against them, Lucky demands the ultimate sacrifice: leave her mother, change her identity, and run away into the night with him. Stranded in a web of violence, lies, and intoxicating obsession, Adeline must decide how much she’s willing to lose to keep the only man she''s ever loved.
Themes include taboo, age gap, dominant older man, submissive younger woman, stepdad, stepdaughter, cheating, forbidden love, romance, crime, mafia, and more.
