Perfect.

I’m a princess.
But my life is no fairy tale.
It used to be…but that was a long time ago, in a land far, far away.
I had it all, until one blood-soaked night when I lost everything I wanted for my future.

Alright, alright, alright, the second book was just as good as book one. The story picks up where book one left off, and it does not disappoint. The writer is pretty good at giving you just enough information to keep you guessing. Things come to a satisfying head when it comes to an immediate threat, but I suspect that there is a threat closer to home that is being overlooked. This kept me on the edge of my seat because I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop.
The sex scenes between Nico and Shaye are steamy but not gratuitous. There is a pretty nicely done voyeurism scene. This gave the story extra oomph.
I enjoyed the complex story and the dynamics between the characters. The plot was easy to follow, and I am eagerly awaiting for the arrival of book three.
Ruling the Mob by Kristen Luciani is a great read. This is the second book in the The Mob Lust series. This is the continuing story of Shaye and Nico. After Nico kills the head of another mafia family, the son, Luca, comes back for vengeance. Luca is a crazy, drugged out person. Luca kills one of Nico’s bodyguards to get his attention and then he causes Nico’s father to have a bad accident, putting him in the hospital in a coma. Luca then kidnaps Shaye and Nico’s little sister. Will Nico be able to save Shaye and His sister before it is too late? Will Luca get his vengeance on Nico? Will Nico prevail? Will they get their HEA? This book is full of action, drama, angst, tension, lust, hatred and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read Ms. Luciani’s next book. I definitely recommend this book.
Holy smokes what an intense story this was!! It opened with me feeling so sorry for Shaye because Nico pushed her away. I felt sorry for Nico because since he killed Cappodamo he has horrible nightmares, he had to push Shaye away to keep her safe, and he knows Luca Cappodamo is coming for him.
The name of the game in this book is to stay alive, keep the loved ones safe, and get to Luca before he gets you.
Let’s not forget Kat!! That woman is as bad a## as they come!! I hope she gets her own story!!
I loved this story!! It definitely kept me on the edge of my seat when Luca and Nico finally meet up. Lots of twists, turns and hot sex in this story!! Shaye and Nico definitely have some hot chemistry going on!! But, can she handle mob life to be with him?
This book is suspenseful. I found myself wanting to know what would happen next. There was even a curve ball thrown in that I didn’t see. You don’t have to read Screwing the Mob but I definitely recommend you do. I’m hoping we will get more of these guys. Make sure you grab your copy.
I didn’t think it could get any more heart stopping after reading Screwing the Mob (Mob Lust series #1). Kristen Luciani had me on the edge of my seat with the continuation of this love story between Nico and Shaye. If you can handle the emotional roller coaster that she has put this couple through, I think you will definitely love this exciting conclusion (I use this term loosely considering the nature of their business) to their thrilling story. Okay now I think I may need something to settle my nerves.

I absolutely love Nico and Shaye’s story. This is book 2 of the series. Make sure you read book 1 before you dig into this gem. With Nico facing the threat of his past coming back, he tries his best to protect his family and Shaye. He tries to push her away but she will not allow him to do that because she’s better with him than without him. She loves him fiercely. When Nico’s past comes face to face with him and Shaye they fight for eachother. Love wins out in the end. Highly recommend reading this series. Can’t wait for Kat’s story and also Max’s.
Love this duetNico and Shayes amazing intense beautiful forbidden love story
This is the second book in this awesome series, and Nico and Shaye’s story continues. Nico knew that there would be ramifications from his action, and is convinced no one is safe, as he has a target on his back. Pushing Shaye away for her own safety does not go down well. No spoilers; this is a definite must read series, but needs to be read in order to understand the dynamics going on. This is even better that the first novel, and is well written and intense, with suspense, emotion, and is a steamy read. I for one cannot wait for the next book in this series, and I highly recommend this talented authors’ work for all readers!
After his actions in the first book of this duet Nico knows that it is only a matter of time before his enemies mount their attack and he wants those he loves, especially Shaye, far away from him so they don’t get caught in the crossfire.
Shaye is no wilting flower that needs to be protected. She will stand by her man and accept the consequences no matter how hard he pushes her away.
I really like the growth of both these characters. This story takes you on an adventure filled with heat, twists and suspense.
Since I did happen to read the first one to this story I just had to read this too. Since this is a life that is filled with many elements you get caught up right away in this one. Nico and Shaye have you wrapped up to the point that every move they make you follow so not to miss a thing.
Being that you are no stranger to these two you want so much more in this one and the author delivers. They have their place but you want them together because it is so much more. Anticipation will be the fuel. Suspense and love will be the blood that flows with the steam that seals it in place. Hold on till you get to the end which you will savor every bit.
Wow! A very intense story that begins right where book 1 left off. I still absolutely adored Shaye and Nico. It was full of suspense and angst. I found it impossible to put it down once I started.
Shaye & Nico are beautiful together. The Mob Lust series is my favorite for 2018. I want more now! I need Max and Sloane’s story and Rocco and Kat’s story. This writer will keep you on the edge of your seat and looking over your shoulder with each page you turn.
Nico is faced with someone who is seeking revenge and is responsible for the people he loves and are loyal to him. How does he protect those close to him while trying not to get himself killed?
Shaye loves Nico and she knows the life they lead isn’t normal. It’s brutal and unforgiving but she is ready to face it with Nico. She’ll do whatever it takes to get his attention and bring him back to her, emotionally and physically.
Ruling the Mob is thrilling and relentless in holding your attention. Pick it up now and fall into the world of this mob family.
This is book two of a series, so I strongly encourage you to read Screwing the Mob first.
Ruling the Mob is an amazing, fast paced follow up to Screwing the Mob. Written in multiple POV, you feel like you don’t miss a thing that goes on in the craziness that is the Saleisi family’s life. Nico and Shaye’s love story continues with a pretty steamy ending you don’t want to miss. If you love mob romance or you don’t, you’ll love this series by Kristen Luciani. Get yours today!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book. This is book two of The Mob Lust series. It picks up where book one ended. Now with Nico second in command, his life and the people he loves are in danger. He tries pushing Shaye away for her own good but she’s determined to stand by his side even when someone is trying to kill him
I loved this book and hope we get more of them.
Nico and Shaye are back. This fast paced, suspenseful mafia romance will suck you into their world. Told in multiple POV’s, the writing is fantastic and the story flows well.
The ending will leave you wanting more. Nico and Shaye may have their HEA, but the family story isn’t over yet.
Shaye proved that she will stand by Nico no matter what and Nico swore he would always protect her. He thought that she was his weakness but she really have him the strength he needed to do what needed to be done. Now I want some more of Max and Sloane!!
Wow just wow! Once again blowing it out of the water here!! I am not a mob reader but this series so far is amazing. Keep me on the edge of the seat amazing!!
Nico and Shaye are back in the second book in The Mob Lust Series and it even better that the first. Nico is pulling away from Shaye after the kidnapping and it’s really beginning to bug her, he claims its to protect her but being a mob princess she can protect herself. When one of Nico’s men is murdered right outside his club everyone goes on high alert and Nico trusts no one, but someone bad is coming for him and all he holds dear and he can’t show weakness. You have to read book one to understand the dynamics of book two but it’s so worth it.
