Dashed (Mafia)

Elena Moretti was born into the dangerous world of the Italian mafia, the daughter of one of its most powerful and feared leaders. Her life has always been a carefully crafted illusion of wealth, elegance, and privilege-far removed from the ruthless underworld that runs just beneath the surface. But when tragedy strikes, and her father is betrayed and murdered, Elena is thrust into a war she's never been prepared for. Suddenly, she must navigate a treacherous world where loyalty is fleeting, trust is scarce, and survival is everything.

Enter Luca De Santis-a man as dangerous as he is captivating. As the heir to a rival mafia family, Luca has always lived in the shadows of his father's legacy, waiting for the day he would inherit the throne. However, when the Moretti family's empire begins to crumble, Luca seizes the opportunity to take control, striking an unspoken alliance with Elena in an effort to maintain order. But what begins as a strategic partnership quickly spirals into something far more personal. Their attraction is undeniable, a magnetic pull that neither can resist, even as their families continue their bloody feud.

Elena, torn between vengeance for her father's death and the ever-growing feelings she has for Luca, must make impossible choices. The line between love and hate becomes increasingly blurred, and as the violence escalates, so do the stakes. Betrayals come from every direction, and Elena finds herself caught in a game where the cost of losing isn't just power-it's her life.

In Dashed, passion and power collide in a tale of love, betrayal, and ambition. Elena and Luca must navigate the fine line between desire and duty, fighting for their own survival in a world where loyalty is fleeting, and every move could be their last. Will their love survive the weight of their families' hatred, or will it be dashed, lost in the bloodshed and deception of the mafia world they can never truly escape?
