Title: "Underworld Hearts"
In the gritty streets of New York City, where the shadows hold secrets and alliances are forged in blood, Alessandro "Luca" Rossi reigns as a feared leader of one of the city's most powerful mafia families. Ruthless yet charismatic, he commands respect and fear in equal measure, his dark reputation preceding him wherever he goes.
But beneath the cold facade lies a man burdened by duty and family legacy. He dreams of a life beyond crime, of finding love and redemption amidst the chaos that surrounds him.
Enter Sophie, a beautiful and spirited young woman with a troubled past of her own. She crosses paths with Luca under unlikely circumstances, becoming entangled in a dangerous game of power and passion. Drawn to each other against all odds, they ignite a forbidden romance that threatens to unravel everything they hold dear.
As their relationship deepens, Luca must navigate the treacherous underworld while protecting Elena from the dangers that lurk in every shadow. Their love becomes a beacon of hope in a world tainted by violence and betrayal, challenging them to defy their destinies and carve out a future together.
But their enemies are relentless, and soon Luca and Sophia find themselves fighting not only for their love but for their very lives. Loyalties are tested, alliances shattered, and in the heart of the storm, they must decide what they're willing to sacrifice to be together.
"Underworld Hearts" is a gripping tale of love and redemption set against the backdrop of organized crime, where passion burns bright even in the darkest of times, and where the truest test of loyalty is the willingness to risk it all for the one you love.

My New Book is Finally Here
My poetry collection Beautiful and Brutal Things is done. It's actually done and finally published over 270 pages. Over a year of my life went into this book. More than a year, really. Long days at my computer, sometimes seven days a week because I couldn't stop even when I probably should have. Then two months of editing that felt harder than the writing itself. But it's finished, and I'm still standing, and the book is real.

The 2025 Bibliophile Advent Calendar Special
There’s a moment every December when the world finally exhales. For me, it usually happens right after I pull out my favorite winter mug and I take that first deep breath of the season. The lights glow a little softer. The books on my shelves seem to lean toward me, waiting. And I remember why winter reading feels like a ritual.
