The Autumn Effect

The Rose & The Lion

"In a world where betrayal is currency and love is a battlefield, how far would you go to protect your heart?" Lia Romano thought she had escaped the chains of her past. Once the cherished wife of Dante Moretti-Il Leone, the most ruthless billionaire in Milan-she walked away with nothing but her dignity and a secret too precious to share. Her divorce was a scandal whispered in every corner of high society, but no one knew the truth: that Lia was framed for a crime she didn't commit. Now, three years later, Lia has rebuilt her life as a celebrated marketing strategist, fiercely guarded by her seven overprotective brothers, all CEOs ruling Italy's most powerful industries. But when her new job forces her to work under Dante, old wounds resurface, and so does the undeniable spark between them. Dante's world is thrown into chaos when he discovers her secret-Matteo, the son he never knew he had. As Dante fights to reclaim the family he lost, he must also face a web of conspiracies threatening to destroy everything. From Vittoria Conti, the venomous socialite who dreams of becoming Mrs. Moretti, to Alessandra Ricci, the jealous colleague hell-bent on Lia's downfall, enemies lurk at every corner. With scheming villains, jealous rivals, and shocking betrayals, Lia and Dante's love story is anything but simple. Torn between her past and her future, Lia must decide: Can she forgive the man who broke her heart, or will the shadows of his world consume them both? Amid fiery boardroom battles, luxurious galas, and emotional confrontations, La Rosa e il Leone is a tale of redemption, family loyalty, and a love that refuses to fade—even when the odds are stacked against it. "He called her his rose, but roses have thorns—and this time, she wouldn't let him bleed her dry." Will Dante prove himself worthy of Lia's love? Or will the scheming forces around them tear them apart forever?

When Autumn ends

Autumn has always been the girl everyone wanted to be—beautiful, intelligent, effortlessly cool, and the center of attention. Her confidence borders on arrogance, but no one ever challenges it. She moves through life as if the world was designed to revolve around her. And in a way, it does. Then there’s August. She’s the opposite. Unassuming, awkward, and invisible in Autumn’s blinding shadow. Where Autumn thrives, August stumbles. Autumn finds an unspoken satisfaction in knowing that no matter what happens, at least she’s better than August. And August knows it too. But life has a way of flipping the script. Suddenly, Autumn’s perfect world begins to crumble. Her lover drifts away, drawn to someone more grounded. Her family becomes distant, her friends scatter, and the attention she once commanded is now focused elsewhere. And there, at the center of it all, is August. As August starts to rise—finding confidence, discovering her own brilliance—Autumn falls. Everything she took for granted slips through her fingers. The roles reverse, and Autumn finds herself in the unfamiliar position of being the one who doesn’t measure up. Now Autumn must confront the reality of who she is without the world validating her worth. And for the first time, she begins to see August not as the girl she could belittle, but as the person who might just be her savior. Because while Autumn was busy ruling her small world, August was quietly building her own.
