Sweet as Arsenic
Felipe Gasparoto

“They called me poison.
So I toasted with it.”
Anelise Tavares was taught to smile while they buried her mother alive in a psychiatric clinic — with full support from a powerful system.
Daughter of a renowned ambassador, she grew up surrounded by silence and polished lies.
Now, as a woman shaped by pain and fury, she returns to the world of power.
Not to ask for forgiveness.
But to burn everything down.
At the center of her Pietro Mancini.
Mafia heir. Cold. Calculated.
The bastard whose name destroyed the only woman Anelise ever loved.
The plan was seduce, manipulate, and take him down from the inside.
But Pietro isn’t what she expected.
He was trained to kill.
She was made to scream.
Together, they could destroy the world — or die trying.
Sweet Like Arsenic is a sensual, psychological and politically charged dark romance, wrapped in poetic language, unforgettable tension, and an emotionally raw love story.
A novel about justice, survival, and falling in love among the ruins.
