Fragile in Her Grip

He was never meant to survive her world… but now, he might be the only one who can.

Luca DeLuca was born into money, not power. Soft-spoken, overlooked, and broken by betrayal, he’s the last man anyone would expect to catch the attention of Valentina Romano the ruthless mafia heiress feared across continents. She's deadly, untouchable, and used to bending men to her will. But when she sets her eyes on him, everything changes.

Dragged into a world of blood-soaked secrets, rival families, and shadows of a brother he thought he lost, Luca must confront the truth: he's not just a pawn he's the key to something much bigger.

As Valentina tests his loyalty, pushes his limits, and pulls him deeper into her empire, the lines between captor and protector, weakness and power, love and obsession begin to blur.

And when bullets start flying and enemies close in, the question is no longer why her?

It's can he survive loving her at all?
