The Viper Stepmother

Serafina Vail has been a Viper since childhood. Ruthless. Cold. Deadly. Betrayed by her own family, she's sold off by her stepmother to marry Dante Romano, the most feared mafia Don in New York. Everyone expects her to be the wicked stepmother. The kind who makes little Luca and Lily's lives a living hell.

But then she sees what those two kids have been through. And everything changes. The Viper becomes their only protector. Piece by piece, she uncovers the Romano family's darkest secrets, their betrayals, their lies. By the time they realize what they've done, it's too late. They didn't just bring a woman into the family. They woke up a monster who would never show mercy.
