Being the daughter of a notorious drug lord will do that to a girl, and things have only gotten worse since her father's death. Now his drug empire is run by her brother, Diego, and while their father might have been a man without a conscious, Diego is a more dangerous animal entirely. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt first, Isabel thinks Luca is just another hired gun. Someone to keep her from pulling the wild stunts that remind her she's still alive -- that there's still hope for something else. But it doesn't take long to realize there's more than meets the eye under Luca's very hot facade. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd that is a complication Isabel doesn't need. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut when Diego reveals a nefarious reason for keeping Isabel close, she's forced to rely on Luca instead of keeping her distance.
