Scarlet
Eighteen years.
That’s how long I’ve been orphaned after an attack took my parents from me and the trajectory of my life changed forever.
At just three years old, my identity was changed, and I was left in the care of the don of La Cosa Nostra here in New York. Lorenzo Bellini promised retribution against the one responsible for the wrongs of that fateful night.
When the opportunity for vengeance comes in the form of an arranged marriage proposal, I grab onto it with both hands. It’s the perfect in to finally make the enemy pay.
I want this vengeance, and I won’t let anyone get in the way. It’s mine to dole out.
Maybe when I prove my strength, Lorenzo will finally see the woman I’ve become, instead of the child he once knew.
Lorenzo
Raising a child was never on my radar until the night I became the guardian of my friend’s daughter.
For eighteen years, I raised her to be a treasured mafia princess. A formidable opponent to anyone who dare go against her.
When Scarlet agrees to marry the man responsible for the death of her parents, everything about our lives changes. Taking out the head of the Irish Mob, and getting away with it, isn’t an easy task.
I know Scarlet is capable of performing this hit, but I’m beginning to question whether or not I can watch her walk directly into enemy territory.
I swore to keep her safe and protect her from all harm, which only leaves one option. I’ll be walking into danger right alongside her because there’s no way she’s doing this alone.
Genre: Mystery
