What happens when a Daddy’s girl grows up to be crowned the first female underboss of the mafia? What an excellent question, thank you so much for asking. No seriously, I've been waiting twenty years to be able to answer this. Trust me, being hidden away in another country with a nanny, a groundskeeper, his son (my ex best friend), and the wicked witch of the west aka—my stepmother. I’m dying to spill the tea. All my life I’ve been told there were big plans for me, that one day I would be called back home where I would take my place next to my father, Calmazio Caprioni—the king of the mafia. For the past twenty years I’ve been trained—more like tortured if you ask me. Educated by the best and kept in the loop of all things having to do with the Caprioni family business. Now it’s my twenty-fifth birthday and it’s time for mama to come back home. Leaving behind my hobby as a thief of the rich and famous, I’m ready to storm the gates of the family castle, ruffle some feathers, and stab some haters. This boss-ass-beeyach isn’t taking crap from anyone, while looking damn good doing it. The world is changing and I wouldn’t want them to forget that this broad is now in charge, high heels and all. Don’t like it? Get a number and step in line, I’m sharpening my knives just for you.

\\ Please be advised this book has major triggers please read authors note\\ Blood has been spilt, my heart has been broken, and there are traitors in our midst. What a great way to start as the new leader of the Caprioni Family. Just when I thought I’d finally have everything I’d ever dreamed of, it was torn away from me. Only two weeks on the job after being brought home and everything goes to shit. No one expected this tragedy to happen—least of all me. Now rage and heartache fuel me as I lay my father to rest, plotting the demise of those who dared to steal the man I loved most from me. To say that some are less than thrilled with my rise to power would be an understatement. That’s not surprising in the least. No, the problem was figuring out who those people are. My father warned me not to trust anyone but those he trusted with me. Even then it felt like a risk to me, each step I let them come closer gave me more to lose. Between a secret letter, a wedding picture, a hidden heritage, a plot to ruin my name, and the police knocking on my door, it’s been one hell of an introduction to being the boss. Adding the crowning cherry of having to turn to the darkness I’d been running from inside myself… I’m not sure how much more I can take. Those who are loyal prove they will support me to the grave and back, but it might not be enough. No matter where I turn, there’s another level of secrets and lies to unravel. Will anything I believed be the truth? Or is this just the beginning of the rabbit hole that shows me what's lurking in the shadows, having waited for my return?

Revenge. It’s the only thing on my mind other than getting Luca out of jail. After getting hit with betrayal, lies, and loss I’ve bloodied my hands and crowned myself the queen of the Caprioni Family. I may sit on the throne, but it doesn't mean matters within the Family have gotten better. The writing is on the wall and I’m damn tired of being the mouse in this game the founding families are playing. Allies are appearing to help expose the truth of what’s really going on behind the scenes, exposing those who thought they could hide from me. With the truth in hand, it's time for the first stage of my revenge and clean up the mess on my turf. Once I’m through taking out the trash all that’s left is to let the big boys know there’s a new queen in town.

Love is what started this whole thing. A man who loved two women. A mother who sacrificed herself for her daughter. A daughter who will stop at nothing to take down those who killed and threatened the ones she loves. I’ve been told all my life that love was a weakness in our world. That couldn’t be further from the truth, but that’s only half of what I need to finish the job. Power—it’s the only thing some people understand besides money. I’m not worried, power is one thing I’m not lacking in this fight. That’s what comes with being the sole heir to two criminal empires and making friends in all the right places. Now that all the pieces are set it’s finally time to shake things up in this criminal world and bring an end to the era of the Five Families. What will come of it after I’ve gotten my pound of flesh? That’s someone else’s problem… I’m just here for revenge.
