Ava Moretti was raised to be submissive rather than to be an heir. As the youngest daughter of New York's most powerful mafia family, she struggles to shed her reputation as the family's troublemaker and find her own place. Then one night, a passionate encounter with a stranger gives her a taste of a sweet freedom she never dared to dream of. However, the moment she discovers that her one-night stand is actually Nick Caponelli, her family's arch-nemesis, an unstoppable desire begins to shake the precarious balance between two massive mafia syndicates.
