Every night I lie beside him, but it’s your name burning on my tongue. I would trade a lifetime of diamonds and silk for one stolen hour in your arms—because only with you do I remember what it means to be alive.

Forbidden Love

✧─────✧

Trapped in a world of privilege and expectations, Giulia Belladonna is the treasured daughter of an influential Italian family. Promised to Alessandro Bianchi—a ruthless, ambitious heir she does not love—Giulia finds herself suffocating in a gilded cage, her every move watched and every dream denied.

Her heart, however, has never forgotten you, the only man who made her feel truly alive. Before the engagement, they shared a secret, passionate love—one that was abruptly and painfully torn apart by her family’s demands. Now, with Alessandro claiming her as his own, Giulia’s body may be his, but her soul aches for the man she cannot have.

The story is a tale of longing, rebellion, and forbidden romance. It explores Giulia’s desperate attempts to reclaim her freedom, her struggles with duty and desire, and the dangerous games of power, jealousy, and control that shape her world. Readers will find passionate encounters, stolen glances, heartache, and the constant tension between what is expected and what is truly wanted.
