From USA Today bestselling author Khardine Gray comes a sizzling hot mafia romance with a fantasy bad boy who will make you beg for more.GioShe was my best friend’s little sister. That meant she was forbidden to me. Women like her didn’t belong in our dark world. Didn’t stop me though… She’s the good girl I never should have touched.I went where I shouldn’t and lost track of the dangers that … shouldn’t and lost track of the dangers that lurked around us.
My irresponsibility cost my best friend, her brother, his life.
I left home to keep her safe… and I knew leaving would break her heart.
Guilt made me stay away, and I found peace in knowing she was better without me.
I never planned to return, but guilt brought me back for my uncles’ funeral.
I knew better than to tempt fate. I’m one of the capo’s to the new Chicago Mafia boss and a member of the infamous Four.
But ,when I saw her again I forgot all the reasons why I was bad for her.
All the reasons why I left.
Leaving her once was hard.
Leaving her twice feels like a mistake I don’t want to make.
Especially when I think she’s in trouble…
Lyssa
I was innocent before him.
The same way I knew not to get involved with a man like him, I knew it was wrong to hide the child he never knew he had.
When I saw Gio again I caved and gave into the temptation of him.
God forbid if he finds out my secrets.
Yes, secrets.
He has a son he didn’t know about and I made a deal with a devil who wants my body as payment if my father can’t pay his debts.
It’s all a nightmare I want to escape.
When I’m with Gio I want him to save me, but I don’t want him to break me like he did last time.
I want to be his like I was before, and remember when we belonged to each other.
Remember when we made love under the stars and I thought that was our forever.
Remember when we laughed together and I felt I had everything.
Remember when we… were us.
It feels like a dream my heart wants, but the nightmare is far from over.
Remember When We is a standalone, full-length mafia romance and a part of the Gangsters and Dolls series.

So we finally get to see Gino get the happy ending that we always hoped he get. In his story we watch as they finally find thr truth of what really happened to his best friend and why he left the love of his life. He had it hard but when we see Lyssa go through so juch to get the HEA that she should of had was just beyond amazing. This whole series has had me needing to know what happens. Now I just need to rwad Alex’s story. Waiting patiently. I give it 5 stars. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book as an Advanced Reader’s Copy
This is another terrific story in the gangster and dolls series
This time we have Gio and Lyssa Eight years ago they loved one another but when things went wrong they broke apart He blames himself for the death of Lyssa’s brother Marshall who also happened to be his best friend So he walked awy thinking he wasn’t good enough for her. What he didn”t know was as well as walking away from the woman he loved he was walking away from his son who she was pregnant with at the time. Now he has returned to find out that all wan;t as it seemed at the time of his departure that there was more to Marshall’s death that he knew and that Lyssa is been forced towards sex with another man to pay her fathers gambling debts AS he starts to question the past his and Lyssa’s connection is still as strong and now he has a son to fight for as well as his woman.
As with the other books about the Chicago Family, this book grabs a hold and doesn’t let go. New clues lead Gio back to where he laid his best friend to rest, and where he broke his own heart to set the woman he loved free. He didn’t know it at the time, but he left a lot more than just a broken heart behind. Passion, danger, and intrigue fill this story as Gio seeks vengeance for his best friend’s murder and takes a shot at a second chance he thought he’d never get. I loved seeing Gio and Lyssa as a couple. Their chemistry lights up the page. And Gio is absolutely adorable as a father figure. The villain felt a little predictable, but that just proves that evil doesn’t need to be creative, just evil. I’m chomping at the bit to find out Alex’s story now.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author through Bad Boy Update.
Gio Bianchi is the capo for the Chicago Mafia family under the leadership of the new boss, Claudius Morientz and the member of the famous four. His long time friend Marshall Carson was murdered eight years ago in a gang shootout. Gio was feeling guilty about the death because he also had a forbidden relationship with his best friend sister. He was reminded continuously by their father (Paul) to stay away from his kids leaving Gio thinking he’s not good enough and the request was granted with remorse. He leaves and breaks Lyssa heart.
At ending of Stolen Hearts, Gio receive surprising evidence that his best friend death wasn’t as it stated on the death certificate and he needed answers.
Lyssa Carson is trying to make ends meet with working two jobs for survival and paying off her father debts to a loan sharks. She is also reeling from her brother’s untimely death eight years ago and the overwhelming pressure with keeping a secrets from Gio resulted from their past relationships.
A great tale of secrets, corruption, bribery, and gripping story. I have to say that the new mysterious character, Gibbs continues to be more interesting. I highly recommend this series!

I thought that this was a terrific second chance at love romance. Lyssa and Gio’s story is filled with tense emotions, drama, steam, suspense, danger and sweetness. I really liked this couple and was rooting to get that HEA this time. I felt that they really deserved it.
This newest addition will have you wanting more of this series that doesn’t disappoint! Danger, suspense and heat continues in Gio’s story filled with a second chance at love. His story is bittersweet as he returns to where he said goodbye to his love and best friend. I was rooting for Lyssa and Gio’s HEA and when things connect will they find it. If your a fan of mafia romance with plenty of spice and sweetness, than this is a definite must read series.
