An illicit affair burning with passion, power, and the threat of exposure. The closer Dalton gets to losing himself to her, the more he realizes he never had control at all.

Selena Fortezza entered the world of the mafia with one purpose... to ruin Draco Castellano. After a brutal attack destroys her wedding and leaves her drowning in grief, Selena’s life becomes consumed by vengeance. The men responsible belong to La Casa delle Ombre, the most feared syndicate in Italy and ruled by the powerful and merciless Castellano family. To destroy them, Selena willingly abandons the woman she once was. Trained to manipulate, seduce, and survive, she infiltrates the dangerous world of the Castellanos through Crimson Inferno, a sinful place where power, violence, and temptation intertwine. Her mission is simple... to get close to Draco Castellano, the cold-blooded heir destined to inherit the empire… then destroy him from within. But Draco is far more dangerous than Selena expected. Arrogant, possessive, and terrifyingly intelligent, Draco initially treats Selena as nothing more than another beautiful plaything. He pushes her into a twisted game of desire and control, never realizing the woman beside him is secretly planning his downfall. Yet the more Selena challenges him, the more Draco becomes obsessed with her. And obsession inside a mafia empire is deadly. Within the walls of the Castellano estate, Selena finds herself trapped in a world filled with betrayal, power struggles, jealousy, and violence. But revenge becomes complicated when emotions begin blurring the line between hatred and desire. Because the deeper Selena falls into Draco’s world, the harder it becomes to remember which parts of her feelings are real… and which parts were meant to be lies. She entered his life intending to destroy him. She never expected Draco Castellano to ruin her first. In a world ruled by blood and obsession, Selena must decide whether revenge is worth sacrificing her heart or whether loving the enemy will become her greatest mistake.

To ransom my husband from the black market, I threw myself into relentless work, earning every penny I could. My son suffered alongside me, sharing in my exhaustion and deprivation. Years of malnutrition had left him vulnerable, and eventually, he was diagnosed with leukemia. I wept as I scraped together money from relatives and friends to pay for his chemotherapy. But on the way to the hospital, a sudden, unbearable pain wracked him. In his struggle, he accidentally bit off his own tongue and died in agony before we even reached the doors. I clutched my son's ashes and went straight to the black market, determined to use the borrowed money to bring my husband back. The moment I stepped in, I overheard a conversation between Joe Masseria and his men. "Boss, Sandra comes every month with her payments. She's suffered a lot just to ransom you," one said. At that moment, a widow—Joe's sister-in-law, long mourning her late husband—appeared beside him. "Joe," she said, her voice calm but cutting, "all these years, you've protected me from harm, even giving me the title of a mob boss's wife. But you've kept Sandra in the dark the whole time. Isn't that… terribly unfair to her?" Joe's eyes were cold, devoid of any pity for me. He scoffed. "Fairness is ruthless. She's had all this love from me. What's a little suffering compared to that? "But she's waited for me all these years. It's time I returned—before she loses her mind and comes after you. "If she's still sensible, I'll make sure her and her son's quality of life improves a bit." I understood everything in that instant. Holding my son's ashes to my chest, I wept until it felt as if my heart would shatter. Joe—your so-called fairness killed my son. And I am done waiting for you.
