Everyone in her small Oklahoma town thought Angelina Torino was nobody.
They were wrong.
For seventeen years, Angelina has lived beneath her mother’s maiden name, carefully hidden from the enemies of her father, Salvatore Benetti—one of the most powerful men in the Italian underworld. Only a trusted few know the truth: Angel is the only daughter of Salvatore and Serafina Benetti and the sole granddaughter of Arturo Benetti, legendary Godfather of a syndicate whose reach stretches from Italy to America.
At school, none of that matters.
To Ophelia Markham and the privileged girls who rule their rural town, Angelina is beneath them. So when Ophelia sees Angel riding behind her boyfriend on a four-wheeler, jealousy becomes rage—and an innocent ride ends with Angelina brutally attacked and hospitalized.
Ophelia thinks she has beaten down a nobody.
Instead, she has put a Benetti in the hospital.
Salvatore has spent seventeen years hiding his daughter to keep her safe. Now he is finished hiding her—and the prominent families who believed their money, businesses, and influence made their daughters untouchable are about to discover what happens when Salvatore Benetti comes to collect a debt.
While her father methodically turns the power structure of small-town Oklahoma upside down, Angelina is sent to Italy, where a private girls’ academy built, funded, and controlled by the Benetti family awaits her. There, nobody mistakes her for insignificant.
She is not Angelina Torino.
She is Angelina Torino-Benetti.
The Benetti princess.
Surrounded by daughters of powerful families and future Dons eager for her attention, Angel enters a world that has known her name since the day she was born. But as she learns the truth about her family, her grandfather’s empire, and the future others have imagined for her, Angelina begins to understand something even the men circling her have failed to consider.
Perhaps the Benetti princess was never meant to choose the next king.
Perhaps she was meant to become the queen.
They thought she was nobody.
Then they learned her name.
