Ellis Island, 1909: da uno dei tanti transatlantici in arrivo sbarcano una giovane donna e il suo bambino. Provengono dall'Italia, dall'Aspromonte più arcaico e violento. I loro nomi sono Cetta e Natale: ma il bimbo viene subito chiamato, dagli addetti dell'Immigrazione americana, "Christmas". Natale-Christmas: nella trasformazione di questo nome è racchiuso tutto il sogno della giovane, indomita Cetta, che affronta con coraggio le difficoltà della vita nel ghetto italiano del Lower East Side di New York con un solo desiderio.

Sie haben mich entführt. Gefoltert. Verführt. Ich sollte sie nicht begehren – doch ich tue es trotzdem. Ich wurde gerettet, obwohl ich nicht gerettet werden wollte. Und nach meiner unfreiwilligen Flucht vor der Gang lerne ich schnell: Freiheit ist scheiße. Auf die unangenehme Begegnung mit einem Menschenhändlerring hätte ich gut verzichten können und auf meine steile Karriere als Drogendealerin ebenso. Der russische Mafiaboss, dem ich versprochen bin, ist mir weiterhin auf den Fersen und auch mein Vater ist noch immer verschwunden.

Vier Männer. Eine Jungfrau. Wird gerecht geteilt? Mein Bruder konnte mich noch nie leiden. Als er plötzlich in unserer Familienvilla auftaucht und meine Unschuld an einen dubiosen Typen verschenken will, ergreife ich die Flucht. Blöd nur, dass ich kurz darauf in einen Drogendeal platze und noch viel gefährlichere Männer auf mich aufmerksam werden. Blake, Zac, Dexter und Ghost herrschen über Raven Falls – und sind nicht gerade berühmt dafür, unschuldige Frauen in Not zu retten.

I’ve spent a lifetime avoiding the various factions of the mafia in NYC, yet somehow I’m in it up to my eyeballs. I should be scared. I should want to run. Yet, the city quivers in fear with every designer-clad footstep I take, because the Valentinis have ascended, and I’m the Don’s lady. It’s intoxicating. However, Luciu comes with vendettas and a craving for vengeance that could get him killed. With my allegiance tied to the Irish, can I say yes, when he wants me to take an oath to the Sicilians? Is a happily-ever-after in the cards?

Mayra needs a safe place to land, and the Fallen Lords Clubhouse is perfect until her past comes back with a vengeance. Boink is the only one who will save her, but even he doesn't seem to like her much.

Casper Jayne turned his back on Crow Hill nearly 20 years ago for a career in the professional bull riding circuit. Now he’s back—and Faith Mitchell is having a tough time thinking about anything else. She’s had a crush on him since high school, when he was part of her brother’s gang—and off limits. Since then, Faith has learned not to take risks. And Casper’s reckless, hard-living ways are causing her to think twice about trying to make the fantasies she has for this powerfully physical man come true.

Princess. That's what the club calls me. I'm not frilly, into pink, or expect a man to woo me with chocolates and flowers. I don't need candlelit dinners and long walks on the beach. I'm not the girl you take home to your parents. I like wild, fun, and good times. I'm the kind of girl you put on the back of your bike and ride through the night...in more ways than one. I like the wind in my hair and the open road before me. I was born a biker princess and I'll be one until the day I die. The man in my life can try to tame me, but he'll have one hell of a fight on his hands.
