SYNOPSIS
The mafia isn't a place for naive women.
Xenia, discovering how much of an oddball she is with the mafia, flees, with hopes of never returning-not even her entanglement with Romano can change her mind.
Starting afresh with a new identity, with new people, a new job, she's off to a great beginning and off the radar for good.
However, a deal with the devil is about to change it all for the worst.
After four months of hiding from Romano's long arms of terror, a pin finally drops, and her location is in the wrong hands, her identity, her ruse-everything uncovered by him, the only man that shouldn't know she still exists.
Romano isn't just coming back to force her into his gentle and severe clutch, he's here to protect and destroy her, idolize and demonize her, eliminate her problems and create even more for her. He wants answers. He has answers for everyone of her questions if she dared to ask.
But what happens when her supposed problem is the one true thing Xenia has ever felt right about?
What happens when she sees the obsessive, compulsive and destructive side of Romano and all she wants to do is run as far as her legs can carry her?
What happens when her deal with the devil comes back to bite her, and her only hope is the same Romano she mustn't go near?

"When you've experienced as much of life as I have, you'll understand the necessity of my protection-"
"Your obsession!" My words carved through the air like a blade, sharp enough to elicit a gasp from Romano. "The guns, the orders, the surveillance, the unwelcome and unannounced appearances...it's not about protecting me, it's about your obsession for dominance."
"Determination becomes obsession and then it becomes all that matters." — Jeremy Irvine.
