Head of Cosa Nostra.
Unlikely best friend.
Born into one of the richest families on the East Coast, Amore’s world changes overnight. From a leading fashion house heiress to the daughter of a powerful mobster.
Amore Bennetti struggles early on to find her path in an unfamiliar world after witnessing the death of her mother. Feeling like an outsider among the underworld, she finds a best friend in the most unlikely place. A rival crime family.
Santino Russo, eldest son to the head of the New York Cosa Nostra, is one of the most eligible bachelors in New York thanks to his stunning good looks, wealth, and deadly charisma. Blood and death follow Santino Russo, but to Amore he will always be her first love and the first one that made her feel safe in a deadly world.
Until he broke her heart.
Now faced with a marriage she never wanted, while trying to hunt down and kill the man responsible for her mother’s death, she has to deal once more with Santino Russo. The ruthless mobster that doesn’t take no for an answer and always finds a way to get what he wants. Even if he has to kill more than a few men to get it.
Cat gives this book 4 Meows with a 4 purr heat index...
This is a Mafia story at its finest. All of the characters are amazing, strong, and have purpose. I fell in love with Santi the moment he spoke to the crying little lost girl. A big tough mobster with a soft heart ( don’t let him hear me say that) then you have his younger brother Adriano, so different from Santi but just as hot.
I’m not usually big on female leads as no matter what it’s rare as they come off strong. Amore is one of the best I’ve read in a long time. Not only is her Father head of one of the biggest Cartels making her a mafia princess. Her grandmother is head of another, and owns a big fashion empire that Amore is to inherit and that empire is her dream. Plus she has a secret.
There are lots of action, lots of twists and lots of sex.
Now you say with all this praise why just a 4? I did feel the story was much too long. There was some repetitiveness, a few things that really didn’t add to the story and much, too much sex. It started a bit later in the book but seemed to never end once it did. I’ll admit to scrolling. Now if that’s your thing then you’ll like the book even more but I felt some of that could’ve been removed and her secret project her and DeAngelo her bodyguard was working on was talked about in more detail. Just my personal taste.
All in all, the story, itself and characters were stellar. I hope we get more of the other characters as there are several left that would make amazing books.
