An earthquake has devastated his most vital port, and regaining access becomes a game of life and death.

But Juliet is no mere token in this high-stakes game of chess. As secrets unravel and loyalties are tested, she becomes Dante’s unexpected weakness. In the azure waters off Italy’s sun-kissed coast, a passionate bond ignites between them. Yet, in a world where trust is a luxury neither can afford, love could be their ultimate undoing.
With the sweeping backdrop of historic Florence, The Italian King will beckon readers into a seductive and perilous world, where each brother in Dante’s empire faces challenges that will see them betrayed, tempted, and ultimately brought to their knees.
