Storm of the Scorned : She has never needed anyone before and that is not about to change.

Gabriella Moretti has been let down time after time again.

She has learned to rely on no one but herself.

Regardless how much people have let her down she stays loyal to them through thick or thin. That is how she ends up being a waitress by day and stripper by night to pay off her uncle's never ending gambling debt while trying to pay her grandmother's medical expenses.

That is how she met him. Vincenzo De Luca.

Vincenzo De Luca the underboss of the Italian Mafia. He is the psychotic one of the family. It is no secret he enjoys the screams of his victims. He cares for no one besides his family. That is until he lays his eyes on his Goddess.

She doesn't fall to his feet like every other woman does begging for his attention. She refuses to give him the time of day.

Unfortunately for her he is a very patient man. He knows one day she will need his help and he will claim her. And there will not be a damn thing she can do about it.

He has no idea how stubborn and independent his Goddess is.


This is the third book in the De Luca Mafia Series. Reading Book One: Reign of Vengeance and Book Two: Ruthless Retribution isn't necessary to read first but will help you understand Storm of the Scorned better.
