"Clara, my beautiful girl, I'm afraid you'll have to move away for a while," he said quietly, "it's the only way I can protect you." I know it's unexpected, but it's for your protection; I don't want them to injure you, darling, so can you do this for Papa?"

Clara Devoto, the famed Mafia boss's daughter, has always lived under her Father's careful control ever since her mother had to escape and alter her identity owing to a prior group chasing her down. Her Father's opponents would go to any length to lower his chances of becoming invincible, and since Clara is one of her Father's top concerns, her whole life has been jeopardized. So, when circumstances worsen, her Father takes the safest option conceivable. Remove her from the room. Clara, as Clara Johnson, will have to start a new life, claiming that her Italian life never occurred, going to a regular school and blending in for a time, trying not to stick out. But what if Elliot Samuels catches her eye, and she immediately feels a connection with her? Clara, will you be able to maintain your distance? Will she be able to hide her secret from him without jeopardizing all she has fled?
