Couture Criminals

Cheeky owner of a struggling fashion boutique, Poppy Fields dreams of having her designs rocking the couture runways in Paris and Milan. While fantasizing about the glamorous life, her world is about to collide with the devil himself in the form of a dangerous mafia leader, Roman D’Amico, out for revenge for his dead brother. Often mistaken as the future wife of one of Chicago’s most notorious crime bosses, and Roman’s rival gang member, everyone who enters Poppy’s little shop believes they are doing a favor to the Gambino family. When her doppelgänger waltzes into her boutique, the women are shocked to find they look like twins. Leaving her identification behind as a ruse to flee the country, Claudia switches lives with the unsuspecting fashion designer. When Luke Gambino falls for the ploy, he believes Poppy is his runaway bride, forcing her to take on the persona of the real Claudia Ricci. Following the murder of his brother, Roman D’Amico is looking for revenge. When he suspects the Gambinos are behind it, he plots to kidnap the rival gang member’s wife. Unknowing that the women have switched places, Roman kidnaps the wrong couture diva. With Claudia missing, Poppy must keep up the ruse, and convince Roman to keep her alive or fall into the hands of the murderous Gambino family.

Chapter 53

"Let's talk, Luke," Remi said calmly, always knowing how to ease tensions in times like these. "But we go first. If you want to know who she is, we'll tell you."

"It's not Claudia. She skipped town."

Remi nodded. "We know. I don't know who that Apollonia girl is you're talking about, but her name is Poppy Fields."

"That's a stupid name. Who names their kid that? You're making it up."

"Hey! My Nanna named me that," Poppy said, completely offended.

"Yeah, it's dumb, but that's the farm girl's real name. She's not involved, Luke. She's just trying to help us find out who killed Beau. She just got caught up in something she didn't really have any control over. Even though she did lie to everyone."

"Yeah, well I'm trying to find out who killed him too. Claudia is involved and I think she's helping her sister getaway. I have information that I think it's time you here… fuck… my head," he said as he staggered back and forth.
