The Nerovelli Empire

His father was murdered. Her family was framed. Their marriage is the only thing standing between Black Harbor and war.

Alessio Nerovelli was raised to inherit an empire—not a blood-soaked throne.

Hours after an assassin kills his father, Alessio becomes Don of Black Harbor’s most powerful crime family. Every piece of evidence points toward their oldest rivals, the Bellandis. Retaliation should be inevitable.

Until Sofia Bellandi proves the evidence was manufactured.

Brilliant, relentless, and impossible to intimidate, Sofia has spent her life defending her family’s control of the harbor. She refuses to become anyone’s hostage, bargaining chip, or obedient bride—especially Alessio Nerovelli’s.

But with both families preparing for war, the Black Harbor Commission demands a ninety-day ceasefire secured by marriage.

Alessio accepts before Sofia can answer.

She agrees only after rewriting every term.

Inside Crown House, every touch is negotiated, every truth carries a price, and every silence threatens to destroy the fragile alliance between them. Yet as Alessio and Sofia follow forged records, dead security credentials, and money hidden behind corporate shells, they uncover a conspiracy designed to make one dynasty bleed and the other pull the trigger.

To protect his family, Alessio must trust the one woman he cannot control.

To preserve herself, Sofia must decide whether choosing him means surrendering—or finally claiming the power to stand beside him.

And somewhere inside their families, a traitor is still watching.

Their first vow was stolen by circumstance.

The second will have to be chosen.

The Don’s Stolen Vow is Book 1 of The Nerovelli Empire, an interconnected Mafia Romance saga. Alessio and Sofia’s central romance concludes with a complete happily-ever-after.
