About

Mason Russo was born into power. The Russo family secretly controls one of the most dangerous mafia empires on the East Coast through luxury businesses, shipping companies, and political connections. At 17, Mason is already being prepared to take over one day. His father, Vittorio Russo, is ruthless and demanding, while his mother, Gianna Russo, spoils him and protects him from the pressure whenever she can. Mason has two younger sisters: Angel Russo (16), dramatic and rebellious, and Camilla Russo (14), quiet and observant. At school Mason is untouchable. Rich, cold, reckless, and captain of the hockey team. Girls obsess over him, guys either fear him or want to be him, and teachers rarely challenge him. He parties too much, gets into fights too easily, and never keeps relationships long enough to care. Hockey is the only thing he genuinely loves because it’s the only place he feels free from the Russo name. Daniela Lima comes from a completely different kind of rich. Her mother, Adriana Lima, is a world-famous model, while her strict father controls almost every part of her life. Daniela is passionate, stubborn, emotional, and one of the best figure skaters in the country for her age. She’s graceful on the ice but chaotic everywhere else. They go to the same elite private school but barely interact until a luxury gala hosted by the city’s richest families forces them into the same room. Mason thinks Daniela talks too much. Daniela thinks Mason is an arrogant spoiled mafia prince. Their first conversation becomes an argument within minutes. Neither of them expected to keep thinking about the other afterward.
