Resurrection is Kris Anne Dean’s debut book and let me just say this, I was on the edge of my seat during this whole story. It has twists and turns that through me off while trying to figure out who did what and I’m usually good at figuring stuff out. I’m looking forward to more of this series and from Kris Anne Dean.
Unbelievably impressive debut mafia romance! Brie is an undeniably strong, independent and badass heroine. Angelo is the ultimate domineering and dominating alpha mafia king. These two practically combusted my ereader when their worlds collided. I absolutely loved the storyline. It flowed smoothly and easily captured my attention. The secondary characters were written in a way that enhanced Brie’s and Angelo’s story. I’m looking forward to reading more by this new author.
This was a really good, very dark story (not a standalone—you also need book 2!). Brie has summer fling with a stalker she didn’t know she had and has little chance of getting rid of him. After moving on, she finds her love, Cal. People are not who we are initially led to believe and there are some major secrets that come out. Kidnapping, sexual assault, and mobsters are on the menu!
A vacation fling for her but he never forgets…………….she is his!!!

I loved this book and as the writers debut novel, it’s fabulous. It’s the story of Angelo and Brie, he’s a Mafia King Pin and Brie is on holiday with a pal when she meets him. One thing leads to another and the two of them have some very hot and steamy scenes over some days. Brilliantly written and so much action, with twists and turns, really looking forward to the next book.

This is Kris Anne’s debut and she did a fantastic job with this dark mafia read. I was complete enthralled with this book once I started.
Brie is on vacation with her best friend When they go to a club she meets Angelo. Angelo is dark and mysterious and they spend a few days together. He is tall, dark and handsome, and just sweeps Brie off her feet. However, not all of these things can be good thing. Angelo has been obsessed with Brie for quite some time. Brie has moved on, but Angelo hasn’t. When he wants something, he gets it, and the thing he wants most, is Brie. He is willing to do whatever it takes to get her back with him. This is full of twists and turns that surprised me. This was a great story with some wonderful characters. I can’t wait to read the next one. Great debut for this author.
Wow the characters in this book are on fire. Brie, Cal and Angelo take you through lots of twist and turns that keeps you flipping the pages. Can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
Amazing first book by this author! It has a plot that continues to build and twist creating a non stop read, with hot chemistry and a cliff leading into the next book in the series that made my jaw drop. I’m eagerly waiting for the next book in this series, a definite must read with Brie, Cal and Angelo.
This debut novel was pretty well written. I enjoyed three story line, and the portrayal of the characters drew me in. It was intense and action-packed. I wasn’t sure how I felt about Angelo and Ava, especially with the way he felt about Brie. But the story was entertaining and every bit the twisted mafia romance!
A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF WHY ONE NIGHT STANDS ARE A BAD IDEA
RESURRECTION is Kris Anne Dean’s debut novel, and she’s off to a good start in the world of the mafia….

Fast forward a year, Brie graduates college, has fallen in love with Cal Carracci, but Angelo still considers Brie to be his, and he’s not sharing her, so right before Cal is going to propose to Brie, she is taken and Cal is left for dead…..
There were many twists and turns in RESURRECTION, and it kept me on my toes…I’m still not sure on whose side I am….but I’m ready for book 2…
Talking her friend’s advice, she ignored what her head was telling her and listened to what her body said when Angelo touched her sending shivers through her body. Surprised that Angelo wanted to see her again, she let him know the hotel they were staying at.
With ignoring calls, after being with Brie he knew he had to attend to business and sent her away she wasn’t ready for that side of his world, but wanted to see her the next day, she melt the ice around his heart.
Brie questions Angelo, he wants her not to ruin what they have before it starts, letting her know he’s a businessman and his last name is Deluca. She knew she would remember him for a long time.
Heading to a party with her friend she’s reminded the summer they had, it was short lived but she felt empty wanting, but Angelo became her nightmare, stalking her, nearly having a breakdown and she met Cal and got her life back.
Angelo wants Brie and no one will take what is his, she should have waited for him, but she didn’t and he’s going to get her back.
Brie had no idea of the world that Angelo belonged to but soon learns quickly and he pulls her into his world, making sure that she is bound to this life, but will she survive or is there a way out.
This story is the debut by this new author, and I found it quite enjoyable. I love books about the Mafia, and I found this was very well done. The characters are clearly depicted, and you can feel the emotions they emit deep in your heart. The story revolves around Angelo, a mob boss who has an infatuation with Brie and will do anything he can to keep her in his life. When Brie initially met Angelo, it was during a summer vacation, but it had been a while since she had seen him, until one day he walked back into her and her world completely changed. There are many twists and turns throughout this book and I couldn’t put it down! I actually read it in one sitting! I am glad that I took a chance on this new author, and so will you. I look forward to reading more by her and recommend this book.
