Angela Lanzia loves two people: her sister Serafina and her brother Cesare who she calls Beppo. She hates being the child of a Mafia soldier and her one wish is to get Serafina, Beppo, and herself away from her family and leave their past behind them.


She's been Serafina's strength--she may be the younger of the two but she is the stronger.  She and her sister have graduated from college and have the means to support themselves but her father has told them that Serafina is to be married to the son of his capo. Serafina is devastated, this is not what she wants.


Though Angela assures Serafina that she can get them away, Serafina decides to take her life rather than submit. Angela finds her sister's lifeless body and knows that now is the time to go on the run.


Beppo gives her some names and some papers he has stolen. He makes Angela promise that she will send for him when he turns 18. She promises, not knowing this is the last time she will see her brother.


But something has happened that she did not expect, she and the young  FBI agent who has taken charge of her case have fallen in love. Will this put them in danger, or will she be able to avenge her beloved brother and sister?


I'm writing the story that I want to read that no one writes. Lots of arranged  mafia marriages and then they fall in love--I want a story where the girl rebels against this and fights back!
