A Novel

The second installment of The Mafia Academy Series—a dark mafia romance set at a boarding school for the sons and daughters of the most powerful mafia lords.

Sofia Moretti

For years, I’ve harbored a secret love for my best friend’s older brother. Yet, he’s never shown any sign of sharing my feelings.

My fantasies will remain just that—fantasies. For two reasons. First, he’s trapped in an arranged marriage with the cold-hearted Aurora Salucci. Second, Antonio always does what his duty demands, and if his father wants him married to Aurora, he’ll marry her.

Forced to watch her parade him all over Sicuro academy, I do my best to push Antonio from my mind and hope I can move on from someone who will never be mine…

Antonio La Rosa

My life has been a series of duties—to the mafia, to my father, but never to myself. Aurora and I are a good match as far as mafia politics go, but she’s nothing I’ve ever wanted in a wife with her hard edges and being about as malleable as granite.

Then there’s Sofia Moretti, my little sister’s best friend. This forbidden romance becomes complicated because I never looked at her with anything other than sisterly affection, until recently. Now she consumes my every thought. My every desire. Her innocence beckons me, and I yearn to be the one who taints it.

But I have a suspenseful duty. And right now, the family needs me to uncover the traitor plotting against us… and that traitor may be closer than I ever imagined.
