But when she was sixteen her father forced an engagement upon her with the “devil” a man who raped her on her birthday and kept on raping her, beating her and even giving her to his mafia brothren to use in the worst ways. Ayla, who grew up with the Abandonato mafia, her father is the boss. I will be honest, that these books are only for those fans that like dark romances or mafia themes although I did love the way this mafia romance was written, it had such a soft and romantic feel to it and not as dark as I expected…at least when it comes to the actual love story but other factors are a bit dark so be forewarned that this isn’t for the faint of heart. And boy this book including books 2 and 3….threw me off my game because WOW!! Super Reading hangover because this couple is one of my favorites of the year and really maybe even top many of the couples I read in 2017 as well!! Their story was so real and heart breaking and was so beautifully written and I found myself so captivated by their story that I had to continue the narration and purchased the books 2 and 3 because I loved the narration for book one. However when I saw the first book as a part of the Audible’s romance Package I just knew that I really needed to grab this one up. I will admit that I have been in the Mafia romance mood LATELY….I swear its so weird but I have just been in one of those strange moods. He touched it, and brought it alive again.īut if he discovers just how dangerous I am to him…I’ll lose my life. I can’t find my heart under the pain.Īlessio found it. I don’t know what it is to trust anymore. I thought Alessio was only one more man who wanted to use me, hurt me, and throw me away. When I find a strange girl hiding, beaten, under my bed, I don’t let her live out of compassion. I was put here to wipe out every last member of the damn Abandonato mafia, to pay them back for my mother’s death.
