Arcadia Awakens By Kai Meyer



 Arcadia Awakens (Arkadien #1)
 By - Kai Meyer


To New Yorker Rosa Alcantara, the exotic
 world of Sicily, with its network of Mafia 
families and its reputation for murder and
 intrigue, is just that—exotic, and wholly 
unknown. But when tragedy strikes, she
 must travel there, to her family’s ancestral
 home, where her sister and aunt have built
 their lives and where centuries of family
 secrets await her. Once there, Rosa wastes
 no time falling head over heels for 
Alessandro Carnevare, the son of a Sicilian
 Mafia family, whose handsome looks and
 savage grace both intrigue and unsettle her.
 But their families are sworn enemies, and
 her aunt and sister believe Alessandro is
 only using Rosa to infiltrate the Alcantara clan.
 And when Rosa encounters a tiger one night
—a tiger with very familiar eyes—she can no
 longer deny that neither the Carnevares nor the Alcantaras are what they seem. 
Ancient myths brought to life in the Sicilian countryside, dangerous beasts roaming 
the hills, and a long history of familial bloodlust prove to Rosa that she can’t trust
 anyone—not even her own family. Torn between loyalty to her aunt and love for
 her family’s mortal enemy, Rosa must make the hardest decision of her life: stay
 in Sicily with her new love . . . or run as far and as fast as she can.
