Known for her sharp mind and relentless determination, she’s earned a reputation for solving cases no one else can. Her greatest obstacle is Luca De Santis, the feared underboss of a rival mafia family. Their hatred runs deep, fueled by years of bloodshed, betrayal, and opposing loyalties. When a dangerous new enemy begins targeting both organizations, Tessa and Luca are forced into an uneasy alliance neither of them wants. As secrets surface and the line between enemy and ally begins to blur, their mutual distrust gives way to an attraction neither can ignore. But in a city built on lies, falling in love may prove far deadlier than war itself. With rival families closing in and danger around every corner, Tessa and Luca must decide whether their growing feelings are worth risking everything they’ve fought to protect.
