Authors Note

Matteo Sternato is a replica of his father. Intimidating, short-tempered, and fiercely protective of the people he loves.

Between being the star player on the football team, incredibly popular and insanely rich, he has everything. But when he's kicked off the team until his grades improve, his entire future lies in the hands of a girl.

A quiet, mysterious, broken girl with secrets she wants to remain hidden and walls built around her that seem to fracture with every smile and sweet gesture from the mafia dons son.
