SOPHIA:

He was my perfect match, my redemption, my chance to finally make something of the broken pieces of my life.

So why was I pushing him away? Why was it so hard to do the one thing I needed to do – love him?

Everyone has secrets from their past. The trouble is, mine won’t leave me alone. They follow me everywhere, and they’re about to overwhelm the best opportunity I’ve had for a “normal” life.

My secrets are catching up with me, and though I pretend there isn’t something dark and sordid in me, clawing to get out, my body betrays me…

Maybe I’m not afraid of things falling apart anymore. Maybe, a small part of me wants to see just how far I can push it.

LEO

I had what you’d call a rough childhood. But I did what I needed to do to survive. I didn’t earn my MBA feeling sorry for myself, and I didn’t haul myself up my bootstraps by clinging to the past.

But one day, the past hunted me down and found me anyway.

Mob boss, Uncle Vito, had haunted me one way or another ever since I was a kid. The men of that seedy criminal underworld might have been my surrogate family a long time ago, but this was the now, and I wasn’t going to let dirt from my past threaten my future with my beautiful fiancé, Sophia…

When they kidnapped her, something dark inside me came bubbling to the surface. I knew I wasn’t afraid anymore. I wasn’t going to ignore my past any longer. I wasn’t going to run forever.

… I was going to fight.
