Description
(working blurb) Wren Fleeing a foster home tied to a trafficking ring, enrolling in a prestigious university where I hope to hide in plain sight. However, the moment I step onto campus, everything changes. I catch the eye of Matteo Rivera, a quiet enforcer with a knack for technology and a gaze that sees right through my carefully crafted facade. He's a puzzle I still can't quite figure out, and his presence ignites something deep within me. Then there's Jovanni Cerrito-an intimidating mafia capo with a fierce reputation and a possessive streak. He's everything I've tried to escape, yet his intensity draws me in, challenging my resolve. With each encounter with these two men, my past threatens to surface, and the stakes rise higher. I am determined to reclaim my narrative, but the shadows of my life loom large, and danger is closer than I realize. Matteo I watch Wren from a distance, captivated yet cautious. She's a storm I never expected to encounter, her scars hidden beneath a brave facade. I've learned to trust few, but there's something about her that stirs a long-buried instinct to protect. Despite my loyalty to Jovanni, I can't ignore the way Wren challenges both of us-her fire igniting a fierce desire to stand against the darkness closing in. But Vincenzo, our Don, has his plans, and they include exploiting Wren's secrets to his own gain. Together with Jovanni, we must form an unbreakable bond to shield her, but the more we fight for her, the more the shadows press in, threatening to consume us all. When Wren transforms from prey into a force of her own, I realize that our fight isn't just for her survival: It's for our souls. As we cross lines we never thought we would, I know we must rise together or risk losing everything. The problem now is that in this deadly game of survival of the fittest in our world, can we truly emerge on top?
