Crimson Bonds
Destruction
Crimson Bonds, 1
Allies.
When Mafia Bosses Allesandro Martelli and Cristian Amato are kidnapped, their fledgling alliance is put to test as the once rivals are forced to rely on each other for survival.
Friends.
With the Bosses gone, Roman Amato and Emilio Martelli step up to lead their respective Families. They’ve both trained extensively for such a task, but reality is always worse. Forced to work together and trust each other as leaders and allies, rather than just friends, they quickly learn that 'Boss' is more than a title and position, it's a sacrifice.
Rivals.
The two Mafia Families were never meant to work so closely together, but in order to survive, the Martellis and Amatos need to go against everything they’ve ever been taught.
Without knowing who to trust, both the Bosses and the Families must rely on cooperation to make it through to the end… If they don’t become their own worst enemies first.

Shifting Ties
Crimson Bonds, 2
Captives.
Kidnapped Mafia Bosses Allesandro Martelli and Cristian Amato are listless. Days spent in chains, while taunted about the discord in their territories, leaves the Bosses with an ever-growing sense of doom regarding their Families.
Lovers.
What should have been a fun way to relieve stress turns into real feelings, leaving unexpected pairings reeling from the depth of their connections. The shifting dynamics force the Amatos and Martellis involved to reevaluate where they belong, as the newly formed relationships cause strife and uncertainty in a dangerous time.
Adversaries.
As their enemy gets bolder, both Families must set their hurt feelings and bruised hearts aside, or run the risk of becoming a casualty of the war waged against them... If only matters of the heart were as easy to wade through as the bodies they leave in their wake.

Pain.
Trapped in an endless loop of boredom and cruel taunts, Mafia Bosses Allesandro Martelli and Cristian Amato are ready to show why they are amongst the most feared in the region. Chained and tormented they may be, but neither man is helpless, and they refuse to wait for their knights in blood-soaked armor to rescue them. Even if it means adding a few more scars to their collection.
Trust.
The lines between the Martelli and Amato Families are blurred, with bonds being formed and dissolved amongst the chaos of losing their Bosses—the glue that holds them together. But if there’s one thing both Families have learned, it’s that they’re stronger together than they ever have been apart, and the newly found trust and loyalty they have with each other may be the difference between success or failure.
Hope.
With the return of their Bosses in sight, the Families throw all they have into their rescue efforts. But when their enemy won’t let any of them go unscathed, the fallout proves to have dire consequences…

Consequences
Crimson Bonds, 4
Family.
Mafia Bosses Allesandro Martelli and Cristian Amato are once again at the helm of their Families. Being kidnapped should have been the worst part of the plot against them, but as they settle back into their roles, not everything is as clear as it once was.
What should be an easy transition back into power, turns into a battle of trusting themselves, and each other, to save the foundations they fought and almost died for.
Loyalty.
With their hearts and lives on the line, both the Families and the Bosses need to prove that while connections might have formed between them, nothing is more important than the vows they previously made.
Amato or Martelli. One or the other—never both.
Faced with the consequences of their actions, both the Amato and Martelli Families try separating their needs and desire from their trust and loyalty. Except, falling back into the status quo may not be the solution everyone believes it to be.
​
Ruin.
The Families must decide if an alliance forged through desperation and blood is enough to carry them through to the end, or risk their true enemy reducing them to nothing but ash…

Lines Drawn
Crimson Bonds, 5
Chaos.
The nightmare isn’t over for the Amato and Martelli Families. As they continue to find their footing, they discover the kidnapping of their Bosses was only the beginning. Thrust together once more, their reinforced bonds are put to the test—again—as they dive deeper into their enemy’s sinister game.
Anguish.
Tension brews between the Families as their choices come back to haunt them, and the kidnapping of Cristian and Allesandro leaves a lasting impact on everyone.
Trust is essential in such harrowing times, but when those threads are broken by the very people who forged them, how will they ever recover?
Survival.
Forced to make an impossible choice, the Amato and Martelli Families must discover how strong they really are—together—or risk losing everything once and for all…
Mutinous Relations
Crimson Bonds, 6
Betrayed.
Faced with the destruction of everything they once held dear, the Amato and Martelli Families were forced to make a choice that turned their entire world upside down—again.
As they try to come to terms with the ultimate betrayal, a new order is put into place. The rules of the game have changed, and amongst the ashes of their old lives comes the promise of something cohesive. If they can trust themselves and each other that is.
Shattered.
Devastated by their hubris, Cristian and Allesandro find themselves adrift. For the first time ever, they are forced to face their vulnerability, and need to either learn to draw strength from it, or lose what little life they have left.
Decimated.
Their shared enemy rejoices in the divided Families, using their pain to their own advantage. As the Families try to rebuild, and the Bosses come to terms with their failings, none of it may matter as those in the shadows pick them off one by one…
Bound Together
Crimson Bonds, 7
Courage.
In a revolutionary move that shattered hearts, and everything they once knew, the Amato and Martelli Families are finding their feet in the new status quo.
The relationships they've built help form trust, and there’s hope for the future, if they only dare to reach further than any of them ever imagined.
Destruction.
As the Families continue to pick up their fractured pieces, their enemy makes their next move, and this time, the Amatos and Martellis may not come out victorious…
Broken.
If only letting go of recent events was as easy as they pretend…
The soul-gutting losses they’ve endured threaten to tear them apart from the inside out, just as they’re finding the courage to discover new parts of themselves. The questions they must ask themselves are: can they ever open up and trust again? Or will the previous claim on their souls be what kills them in the end…
Frayed Threads
Crimson Bonds, 8
Desperation.
Trapped in yet another situation not of their making, Emilio and Roman only have each other to lean on to get through their enemies' twisted games. When the past and present begin to blur together, their chance of survival slips further and further away…
Darkness.
Without their center, the Family is thrown into chaos, and the foundation of their newfound bonds are tested in a way they never have been before. The merging of feelings will either be a help or a hindrance as they discover what they can and cannot live without in such dire times.
Strength.
Once broken, is it possible to find their way back to each other? Only their ability to trust their Family and themselves will allow them to be victorious.
Yet, sometimes even the strongest threads aren’t enough…
