Summary

After her parents perish in a tragic accident, Cosima Saverio assumes leadership of her family���s haute couture Italian leather brand. While navigating the challenges of running a company at twenty-three, Cosima must also maintain the four-hundred-year-old family palazzo in Venice and care for her younger siblings: Allegra, who survived the tragedy that killed their parents with scars and a spinal injury, and Luca, who has a penchant for wild parties, pretty women, and poker tables.Cosima navigates her personal and profession challenges with a wisdom beyond her years, but her success has come at a cost: Her needs are always secondary. She���s married to the business, and her free time is given to those who rely on her . . . until she meets Olivier Bayard, the founder of France���s most successful ready-to-wear handbag company. A brief conversation on her palazzo���s terrace turns into a tour of the Saverio workshop, and, fifteen years after her parents��� deaths, Cosima has found a confidant.Now the business is financially stable and generating enough income for the Saverios to live comfortably. Then Luca loses a hefty sum at the casino, and his debt must be repaid with money or his life. Cosima, forced to bail him out, is given an impossible choice: List the palazzo, sell a third of the family business, or let Luca fend for himself. But is there another way to save everything she has fought for before it goes up in flames
