Massimo Ferrucci is a third-generation Zanetti famiglia Made Man. Born a bastard. His mother, a mistress. His father, cruel and hard. Raised by a woman who held no affection for him.

Pippa Mazzilli has only ever craved freedom. Forced to live with an aunt who cares nothing for her other than the financial security her existence provides. When the money runs out, Pippa is turned away from her home.

Scared. Alone. Desperate. Pippa runs to the very men that she has despised her entire life. Men that she swore she would never subject herself or her future to—Zanetti famiglia men.

A match is made, an arrangement that cannot be undone. Unchangeable events unfold for the new couple that are out of even the famiglias control. The Street Boss must decide if he can give Pippa not just what she needs to survive, but what she desires to thrive.
