the daughter of the man who ruined his mother.

PRIDE  — ROMAN VALENTI

They say reputation is everthing in Chicago.

Roman Valenti was raised to believe it was the only thing that actually mattered. The Valenti name is legacy—polished, untouchable, engineered to perfection after the scandal that almost destroyed them. A scandal no one speaks about anymore. A woman erased from the society and marriage that never recovered is not that interesting topic after all.

But for Roman it still was important. Because that woman was his mother.

The man she had an affair, your father, walked away untouched, because of course he did. Men like him always do.

Roman remembered everything—the whispers, the cameras, the way his mother disappeared piece by piece while your family kept their place at the top. He learned early that the truth doesn't matter. Image does. 

So he rebuild himself into something sharper, colder. Flawless. And now?

Now he will do one thing that his father never could. He will ruin you. Perfectly engineered slow unraveling of your name, your life, your place in the world—until you understand exactly what it feels like to lose everything while everyone watches and no one intervenes. But keep in mind, that you are not the target. You, honey, are just a message.

Roman Valenti never looses and in Chicago, sins don't disappear. They evolve. And Roman is his mother's legacy—not her shame.

But her reckoning.
