One year. That’s how long I’ve wanted Francesca. I’ve worked my way up the ranks, dedicating my life to the syndicate while I tried easing her fear of men.

Seven years ago, my family’s enemy took everything from me. I’ve been determined to get it all back. When those same enemies nearly kill Giovanni, our friendship changes to something more.

Until a secret emerges that could destroy everything.
