The Falconeri Saga
Vivian Bellini
Blood does not forget. Desire does not forgive.
Explicit adult content. Recommended for adult readers.
Cosa Antica is a dark mafia romance trilogy set in the depths of Sicily, where power is inherited in blood and desire asks no permission. The Falconeris are not new mafia — they are something older, darker, rooted in a land that remembers everything. A woman who chose to escape. A man who lets no one go. And a pact that predates both of them.

The wedding happens. The first night does not.
She chose Milan to escape her father's name. Then the summons came — and with it the name of the man she would marry. Damiano Falconeri is not new mafia. He is something much older.
The wedding was a transaction. The marriage is becoming something neither of them planned for.
She thought she was being married off to a mafia heir. The truth is older. The Falconeris predate any of the Five Families — and the debt she carries is not hers, but she will pay it with her life.
The only way to keep them both is to walk out of the only world he has ever ruled.
The bride who was meant to die has run out of time. The keeper who refused to kill her has run out of house. And the pact would take the child it was promised. Series conclusion. HEA.
Vivian Bellini writes dark romance and adult fiction set in the Mediterranean world. With the Falconeri Saga she explores the boundary between desire and power, loyalty and betrayal, on an island that keeps secrets as old as its name. Her prose is dense, sensorial, and deliberately adult.
