Sophie Turner keeps her head down and her hands busy—arranging lilacs and lilies in a
sleepy corner of the city. When a brutal hit-and-run spills a bleeding stranger into her
doorway, she chooses mercy and saves him. That choice binds her to Matteo Rossi, the
underboss’s brother, a man made of knives and vows who owes her his life.
Matteo is danger wrapped in devotion. He swears he’ll keep Sophie safe, even if it means
burning his world to ash. But enemies move faster than promises, and soon Sophie becomes
a target—not for what she knows, but for what she means to him.
A dark, possessive love story about a man who falls first and a shy florist who refuses to be a
secret. No mafia background heroine. Stand-alone with an HEA/HFN.
Genre: Romance
