Rosaline Romano’s life has just been uprooted at the drop of a hat. Her plans for attending college in California like her older sisters have been ruined. And all thanks to the crime of the century. Now, she’s living behind the walls of the Tacchelli Family’s fortress. She’s safe but all alone. The only thing keeping her from going crazy is the mystery man, in the black suit, who she sees out in the garden clipping roses. Everything about him screams danger and sex; however, she can’t stop thinking about him.
Ademaro Bianchi is well-known for his skillset. It wasn’t his childhood dream to grow up and become the Tacchelli Family’s button-- the man they call when they need something taken care of… for good. No. He had other dreams, but life lead him down a dark path and he’s been consumed with darkness ever since. Desperately, searching for the light at the end of the tunnel. And, then she came. Staring out the window in the garden as he tended to the roses. She’s off-limits but since when have rules stopped him?
Will Rosaline cross into the darkness? Will Ademaro step into the light? Or will they meet in the middle to find their happily-ever-after?
