Exiled Love

GIULIA

New York was supposed to be my escape.

A mafia princess finally breathing on her own.

Instead, my father sticks me with the one man I should fear most.

Alessandro Vitali. The enemy who almost killed my sister-in-law.

The man my brothers would shoot without a second thought.

Now he’s my driver. My guard.

He watches everything and stiffens when I flirt with danger.

Says ‘no’ with a growl that shouldn’t make my heart race.

I should hate him. Maybe I still do.

But the longer we’re alone in the dark, the more I wonder what would happen if I ran toward the monster instead of away.

ALESSANDRO

I used to be royalty. Now I’m the help.

Exiled from my family. Bound to the Santoros like a weapon they own.

My punishment? Guard the daughter of the man who destroyed my life.

Guilia is softness in a brutal world, danger wrapped in temptation.

She thinks I’m her jailer. She doesn’t see the wolves I keep from her door.

Every time she tests me with that defiant smile, I should shut her down.
