A beautiful woman with a love of singing marries the son of a well known Mafia boss.

Preview

Two star-crossed lovers from different social backgrounds fall in love: Giavanna, a beautiful woman from a poor family, and Michael, the handsome son of a Mafia boss. After a whirlwind courtship, they happily raise their two children. Their oldest son, Mikey, is wild and tough just like his mob boss grandfather, while their younger son, Nicky, loves to sing but prefers hip-hop over opera, much to his father Michael's dismay.

 

Giavanna urges Michael to leave the mob, but he refuses. When Mikey is severely injured in a motorcycle accident, their world unravels. Giavanna discovers she has a rare blood disorder, revealing her biracial heritage, which the Mafia cannot accept. Michael abandons his family, and Giavanna must raise their sons alone.
