Vengeance in Blood
(2026)(The second book in the La Cosa Nostra New York series)
A novel by Cassie Hargrove
Domenico
Three months ago, my father—the Capi dei Capi—hurt a lifelong friend of mine by forcing his little sister to become his wife the second she turns eighteen. Until then, she’s forced to live as his prisoner.
I’ll do anything to get her away from his vile lifestyle that goes against everything we as La Famiglia stand for, even if it means returning to Sicily. There's just one problem; the deeper I dig into my father, the more his depravity and vile choices come to light. It’s clear he has to be taken out, along with any of our men who've joined him in his actions.
We’re running out of time to get Aurora back, and starting an in-house war isn’t the ultimate goal if we want to bring honour back to La Famiglia. An eradication of the stronzos within our ranks is the only answer, but pulling off such a feat without raising suspicion is harder than it seems. It’s going to take old and new friends alike working together to bring an end to this mess.
Aurora
Hell.
Such a small word to describe the absolute torment I’ve been forced to endure for the last three months.
Nothing feels real anymore as I’m forced to do, and witness, dark, horrible things by a man I despise. A man I want to see die in the worst possible ways. My brother and his friend are working to get me out, but I can’t leave until I help bring this bastardo and his friends down from the inside.
Going against the Sicilian mafia means certain death. It’s a punishment I’ll gladly take if it means saving innocent lives. If I can bring down the trafficking ring the Capo dei Capi and his buddies are running behind the Family’s back and free women and children in the process, it will all be worth it.
Vivi alla giornata. Live for today.
That’s exactly what I plan to do, even if it's a suicide mission.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
