Cinderella in the Underworld
She’s living her own twisted Cinderella story. An orphan with a ruthless stepmother and two cruel stepsisters, her life is more a nightmare than a fairy tale. But she isn’t searching for a prince—she craves revenge. She’s determined to uncover her father’s killer, and nothing will stand in her way. Trust is a luxury she can’t afford, especially after her last heartbreak shattered her belief in happily-ever-after.
Then he reappears—dark, dangerous, and infamous. Known for his bad-boy charm and explosive temper, he’s a guy with a violent history and a reputation for trouble. Whispers follow him: he’s a psychopath, a loose cannon. After seven years in Italy—the homeland of his family’s underworld empire—he’s back.
To her, he’s bad news, and she knows better than to fall for someone like him. But for him, one encounter with her is enough to spark an obsession. Swearing on his mother, he becomes determined to have her, willing to shatter any bone and break any rule to make her his.
