Penelope Townsend can handle anyone after growing up as the youngest with seven overprotective brothers. Dark and Dangerous doesn't intimidate her. Which is probably why she fell for the man her brothers do not want her with.
Nico Saccone claims he's out of the mafia, but power like that doesn't just disappear. He legitimized his family's business and became a billionaire. However, if push comes to shove, everyone knows Nico's the one with the real power.
Push comes to shove when Penelope is taken and held as a pawn in a game her brothers don't know how to play. With no leads and no time, her brothers have no other option but to call on Nico for help. Nico will do whatever it takes to rescue Penelope. Rules will be broken. Lines will be crossed. Because whoever took Penelope just started a war, and Nico will burn the entire world to the ground to protect the woman he loves.
