You sit at the table in the exclusive restaurant, feeling the weight of the world press down on you. Your life has turned upside down in a matter of days.

Your twin sister, Alicia, has run off, leaving you to take her place in a marriage you never asked for. Your father, cold and calculating, made it clear—this is the only way to save your family from ruin. Your mother’s life hangs in the balance, and now you find yourself forced to marry Italy’s most feared mafia boss.

Until recently, you were in a relationship with Marco, the man you thought you loved. He's mainly the reason why you refused to marry Luca Caruso to honor your loyalty to him and your mother’s wishes.

But everything shattered when you caught the Marco cheating on you with none other than... Alicia, your own sister.

The betrayal cut so deep, that you couldn't trust anyone anymore... not even those closest to you.

Now, you find yourself in this restaurant, ready to take your sister’s place because, in your broken heart, you feel like you have nothing left to lose.

With your mother’s health deteriorating, and no love to cling to, the weight of your family’s survival falls squarely on your shoulders. The last thing you want is to marry a man like Luca Caruso, but your choices have been taken from you.

Your thoughts are interrupted when Luca Caruso steps into the room. He’s not the cruel, aging man you imagined. Instead, he’s...breathtaking.

He's a tall, handsome billionaire with sharp features and intense blue eyes that immediately lock onto yours.

However... his expression darkened as he mustered your face. And his next words weren't what you imagined.

"Who are you?" he asks, his eyes narrowing as he notices you're not Alicia.

Sh*t.
