Matteo: I don’t have time for this. My men caught a spy down by the old abandoned shipyard and now I have to deal with him or else risk losing this alliance. Turns out the spy isn’t a man. It’s a woman. A lovely woman who says she was taking photos for her bookstagram account. Whatever that is. I can hardly take in her words, because her eyes are piercing my chest, right where my heart would be … be if I had one. They are crystal blue, almost transparent in this lighting. I can see fear in her clear blue irises, but also a quiet determination. This isn’t the first time she’s been threatened. I can’t let her go. I have to protect this angel.
Darlene: I was just taking pictures! I swear, I didn’t know anyone else even knew about the creepy abandoned shipyard. The thugs who kidnapped me, however, don’t let me defend myself before putting a bag over my head and shoving me in a car. The worst part is, they threw my books away in the dumpster. That’s just rude and unnecessarily cruel. Before I know what’s happening, I’m dragged into a room that smells like cedar and spice. The bag is finally removed from my head and I’m greeted with the culmination of every book boyfriend I’ve ever had. And apparently he’s the guy in charge who gets to decide my fate. Ninety-nine percent of me is filled with abject terror. But one, teeny, tiny percent of me can’t help but feel like I’m finally having an adventure of my own.
MADE FOR THE MAFIA BOSS is everything you’ve come to expect from my books: Lots of sweet, plenty of heat, and just enough drama to keep things interesting. This unlikely pair have a happily ever after that just might rival Darlene’s favorite fairy tale. Safe, no cheating, HEA guaranteed!

PERFECTION!
Mafia romance at its peak.
So this book had me when it is mentioned that the main character is a bookstagrammer. It was amazing that there was that aspect of Darlene and then the mafia boss in Matteo that made for the perfect book. It was a little slow at the beginning but it was worth the read! This was a great first book, and I can’t wait to read the rest of the series.
Loved this Mafia romance book. It had wonderful characters, lots of steam, plenty of action and a great storyline.

What’s next? Mafia Romance? Yep!
Matteo and Darlene made my heart melt! Darlene was so sweet, shy, and kind in spite of the crappy hand life had dealt her. Her gentle spirit was just what hardened mob boss Matteo Moscarelli needed in his life. A wonderful way to start a new series! I can’t wait for his underboss’s, Luca, and her best friend’s, Freya, story!
Safe with a HEA and a 3 month epilogue.
This is the first book by Cameron Hart In the Moscatelli Crime Family Series which features Matteo the don of his mafia family, who comes face to face with Darlene, a member of a book social media group, who is mistaken for a spy during a Moscatelli and rival family meeting. I recommend this mafia romance with its wonderful characters, a great plot, and sizzling chemistry.

Very well written story. Matteo is the alpha Mafia boss. Darlene is a shy strong women who had a really bad childhood. When she’s caught taking photos of a warehouse Matteo’s men grab her thinking she’s a spy. Matteo is really a hard mafia boss but he’s not cruel with Darlene. Matteo is sexy, sweet, compassionate and loyal to Darlene and she’s just as determined, sassy and sexy in her own right. I really enjoyed this story.

Mafia boss meets bookworm
Darlene actually wanted to photograph her favorite book series for her Bookagram account as temptingly as possible and accidentally ends up in the wrong place at the wrong time. She is picked up by the staff of the most powerful mafia boss and awaits punishment. But one look from Matteo to Darlene is enough and he is enchanted by her. He protects her from rival mafia gangs and they fall in love with each other. It’s just wonderfully described. A book to indulge and fall in love with.
I recently discovered Cameron Hart, and I have to say her books are so good that I had to spend a few nights reading all her work. The Moscatelli crime family book one was my absolute favorite. Darlene was such a sweet character I really liked how likable of a character she was and I loved how she kicked butt in this book. Matteo was a goner when he met Darlene, and I loved how much he showed her he cared. He saw her and knew she was his and did everything he could to keep her. I like how we got a glimpse of some characters that are coming up because of how interesting their story seems already. I cannot wait for more from this author.
Darlene and Matteo have many challenges ahead. It is love at first sight. Matteo has many OTT moments. Matteo is afraid of bringing Darlene into his world. Darlene totally holds her own. Excited for more books to come in this series.
