Synopsis

Alessandro is the unwilling heir of a Chicago crime family. Intent on leaving the life set out for him, he decides to run as fast and as far away as possible. His plans crumble when one girl crash lands in his life. He should hate the daughter of his father’s mistress, but it’s near impossible when he finds that they are alike in more ways than one.

Olivia grew up watching men walk in and out of her mother’s life. When one man finally decides to stay, she learns that crime lords don’t leave until someone’s dead. Olivia’s salvation comes from the person she least expects: his son.

Six years later, Olivia and Alessandro are reunited when her life is threatened. If time has proven one thing, it’s that repeating their parents’ mistakes seems inevitable.

In a world where friendship is a luxury and love a death sentence, two unlikely lovers find each other only to be separated by their cruel reality.


Review

 ★★★★★ stars

I wasn't sure what I was expecting when I decided to read this book.  I had hoped it would be hot and interesting, and boy was it that. However it was also really well written and also a mystery of sorts. Who was trying to kill Olivia and what had happened to Alessandro and Olivia six years before? I should've known I was going to fall in love with this book when a body was discovered on page one and set off events that I'm still thinking about long after I've finished reading this book.

I really liked Olivia.  I felt horrible for the circumstances she found herself in.  I felt even worse when her current situation deteriorated and I found out what had been happening to her as a child.  I didn't just feel horrible, I was enraged that a child would have to experience what she did.  I was happy that she'd found some comfort from Alessandro who had every reason to hate her and make her life more miserable.  I really wanted to like Alessandro.  He had some really good moments and then there were times when I was baffled by his actions.  I'm still holding out on deciding for good how I feel about him.

Hot isn't enough to describe Olivia and Alessandro's chemistry.  It was off the charts spectacular.  I wasn't sure if they were going to rip each other's clothes off or rip off something else.  I have to commend Olivia for doing and dealing with things the way she did.  I was on edge the entire time I was reading this book.  I was either expecting another attack, or it was the details I was learning that had me anxious.  I also had no idea what direction the book was going in.  Besides the obvious threat to Olivia's life, stuff was going on in the mob world that made Alessandro anxious and their future seem uncertain.

This book ended on a high note, and on a cliffhanger.  The high energy that was created on page one, lasted through out the entire book.  I stayed up late to read this book so I could read it all at one time, and I had a hard time sleeping afterwards because I wanted to know more about G.K. Moore and when the next book in this series would be coming out.  I'm really excited about it and I can't wait to read it.  G.K. Moore has written one heck of a book.  Her debut novel is impressive and she's shot onto my must read list with this book and you know I'm going to want this book on my bookshelf too.  In all honesty, nothing I can say will really do this book justice.  Pick it up and read it; you won't regret it!
