I Saved the Mafia Boss—Now I'm His Obsession.

Madeleine Júlia Cordeiro lives in a quiet, plant-filled apartment in the rougher part of Chicago. She’s twenty-one, broke, vegan, and studying animal science at the local community college. She cries over rescue dogs, talks to her plants like they’re her best friends, and thinks violence is something that only happens in action movies. Her life is calm, predictable, and painfully ordinary.

Until he bleeds all over her floor.

Adriano Capone is violence in human form—shot, hunted, and very much the kind of man her sweet little heart should run from. He’s everything she hates: violent, dangerous, cruel in the way only a mafia prince can be.

He’s everything she’s sworn to avoid but he's hurt and Maddie has a soft spot for lost things.

So, she stitches him up.

And he stitches himself into her life.

He's the devil incarnate.

She's never even slapped someone.

But fate doesn't care about perfect matches...

It threw fire into the hands of a flower girl.

POINT OF VIEWS - POVs.

This book is written in dual point of view. That said, not every chapter will alternate perspectives. The POV shifts will happen organically, when it makes the most sense for the storyline. Sometimes you’ll stay with one character for several chapters if that’s where the emotional weight or action is strongest.

UPDATES SCHEDULE

I post one new chapter every day, though there may occasionally be a skipped day here and there. Life can get a little chaotic, especially since I’m currently juggling this story with the demands of medical school (yes, it's as intense as it sounds).

Please know that I’m doing my very best to keep updates consistent while still balancing
