"My Sweetest Mariella,
It pains me to say that I will not be returning to New York. I need you to know that we can no longer be together. I must put a stop to our relationship now, before it is too late.
Please do not try to call or text. I won't answer.
My things will be gone by the time you have finished reading this letter. You have until the end of our lease in September to move.
Take care,
Mateo"
Mariella met Mateo at an impossible time in her life; an abused teenager seeking solace from the son of an Italian mafioso.
When Mateo left unexpectedly, life only got more impossible as Mariella struggled to balance her own personal grief with raising children on her own.
Fate brought the two together, but it also tore them apart. With twins who only remind her of their father, and the return of the man himself, how will Mariella cope? And how will fate cope with the chaos of colliding the pair once more?
