Nadine and her best friend Viviannie only wanted one last carefree night before graduation. But when Viviannie catches the attention of Scuro, the ruthless head of the Italian mafia, everything changes. Viviannie disappears soon after, leaving behind cryptic messages that make Nadine fear the worst.

What Nadine doesn’t know is that Scuro has taken Viviannie — and to protect his secret, he orders his most loyal enforcer, Matteo, to watch Nadine from afar. But watching her becomes something far more dangerous when Matteo finds himself drawn to the very woman he’s meant to keep at a distance.

As Nadine struggles with medical school, family expectations, and the chilling sense that she’s being followed, the truth inches closer. Matteo is torn between loyalty and desire — especially when Nadine discovers he once stopped Viviannie from escaping.

When rival enemies target Nadine to strike at Scuro, she’s pulled into a deadly underworld she never wanted. Betrayals run deep — including the shocking truth about her own father — and Nadine must decide whether she can trust Matteo despite everything he’s done.
