She hides her genius behind a man's name. He hides his conscience behind a blade.
Serenata Valieri is the most celebrated musician in Sancetti - and its most invisible composer. For years, she's traded her brilliance for survival, letting her patron claim the music that has made him famous. She's perfected the art of performance, on stage and off. No one sees the woman beneath the virtuoso.
Until she witnesses a murder. Until a man is sent to silence her.
Dante Selvaggio is the Falcone family's shadow - their illegitimate fixer, their convenient blade. He's never questioned an order. But when he recognizes the witness he's meant to eliminate as the true composer of music that once kept him alive in a prison cell, he offers her something unexpected: an alliance.
She needs protection. He needs her cipher skills to save his sister from a dangerous marriage. Neither needs the desire that ignites between them - a wanting as reckless as the conspiracy closing around them both.
As Carnival approaches and a powerful conte tightens his web of blackmail and blood, Serenata and Dante must communicate through coded melodies, stolen touches, and the growing certainty that they are each other's greatest danger - and only salvation.
In a world of masks, the most terrifying act is being seen.
A Renaissance romance of music, conspiracy, and a love forged in secrets - for readers who want their passion with a blade's edge.
