All I want, hustling into the coffee house, is to get my fix. Instead I end up chasing an obsession more powerful than my caffeine addiction – a beautiful woman who fears me for reasons I don’t expect.
After some quick stalking – I’m a mob boss, that’s what I do – I find her. And, in less than twelve hours, I drive her to tears, piss her off, and earn her gratitude for saving her and her … gratitude for saving her and her daughter.
Now I’m determined to make her mine. But, she has trust issues from her ex and with her child.
Easy solution to both problems: eliminate him and befriend her. My plan works perfectly – until an enemy discovers my only weakness and starts a war he won’t survive. Because I’ll risk everything I have to protect my girls.
Author’s Note: Three More Shots was originally released in April 2020 as part of the Escaping the Mafia series. This book has been re-edited as a stand alone story.

I absolutely LOVE all of Nikki Belaire’s books and this one did NOT disappoint. Mafia is my favorite kind of books to read so I am super picky and I adore Nikki’s kind of story telling. Loved this book
Steele, Corinne, and Ainsley take you on another steamy, slow burn, with lots of twist and turns that leads to some action and an amazing read that will leave you breathless and wanting more. As the plot get thicker will everything blow up in one that needs help face read the next to find out.
Steele is a total alpha male mafia man but he is knocked for a loop when he meets Corinne and her daughter Ainsley. He is intrigued by the two and possessive over them. Corinne is a single mom working and trying to take care of her daughter Ainsley. Ainsley is on the spectrum. I loved the way Steele learned to interact with her. This was a story close to home for me. Another great read from this author.
Wow this book was so good. Short, sweet and to the point. We watch this guy fall hard and fast for a woman who has a daughter with problems. It just makes your heart sing with joy. I hope to get a chance to read the others in this series. I give it 5 stars. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book as an Advanced Reader’s Copy.
I do love a good mafia book with a hot alpha lead and this book doesn’t disappoint. At the same time Corrine’s story just shredded my heartstrings. I couldn’t put it down once I started to read it.
This story stirred up so many different emotions. Corinne’s selfless sacrifice and devotion for her daughter and the tight relationship the two of them had warmed my heart. Then you throw Steele into the mix and I was swooning. Who doesn’t love watching a man who instills fear in everyone who crosses his path fall to his knees for the love of a good woman and her daughter. This is 5 star must read that will have your full attention from page one.
Corrine is a single mother raising a daughter with Autism, all on her own. Steele is the CEO of the company she works for. Two completely different worlds, finance wise. Corrine is a mother who will do anything to protect her daughter in anyway possible, making every sacrifice possible for her daughter, Ainsley. Steele, wants to protect both Corrine and Ainsley. This is a amazing story of a love that knows no bounds. A mother’s love for her child. A must read!
I am a huge fan of Author Nikki Belaire, her mafia stories are full of adventure, romance and pure alpha male. Steele is rough on the exterior but soft when it comes to what he wants and loves. He had my heart in how he took care of Corrine and her daughter. His wild side was sexy as hell and I couldn’t stop reading from start to finish. Loved the characters and story line for this new Mafia Series she’s apart of.
Corinne and her daughter Ainsley lead a very scheduled and set to routine lifestyle that gets twisted around and the broody, alpha mob boss, Steele, becomes fixated on them. I loved seeing the depth of his compassion for his two ladies. They get taken on quite a journey within the pages of this story. This was a great mafia world reading escape!
I’m a lover of Mafia stories whether short or long. This story which is part of a series, is incredible. I love a broody, take charge alpha man and Steele definitely fits the bill! When he meets Corinne and her young daughter, he feels such a pull to her. But can he convince her to give him a chance? She is very protective of her daughter, and is very hesitant to let anyone into their lives. This story takes you on Steele and Corinne’s journey and what a journey it is!! These two are made for each other and my heart melted as to the lengths Steele would go for her. This story also touched on a topic that is very common in this world and this author handled and described it perfectly. I highly recommend this book and can’t wait to read the others in this series!
Thoroughly enjoyed the style of this book. Mafia boss whose heart gets stolen by young single mother with a disabled child.
Putting the mafia theme aside for one moment. I did find this book particularly insightful to the autism spectrum disorder.
Main characters were Steele, Corinne and daughter Ainsley. MAN…. was Steele a possessive dude. Corinne was a struggling mum trying to juggle work and home life whilst working but after a chance meeting, Steele is smittened!
This is a fast paced short story mafia romance. Highly enjoyable and highly recommendable. I found it to be suspenseful and intriguing as-well as educational as aforementioned. Great story!
This is the third book in a six book series, but can be read as a standalone. As always, the author doesn’t disappoint and I was hooked on the story right away. Steele is a very powerful man who always gets what he wants and doesn’t take no for an answer. Corinne is one of his employees and a single parent of a special needs child. He wants her and her child and she thinks she doesn’t deserve happiness. Together, they are combustible and gave me all the feels. I highly recommend you read this book and the series.
Oh, I fell in love with Steele in this book. The plot continues from the first two books abut now we have Steele and Corinne and her young daughter. I am a sucker for a single parent story and this had heart and gripped mine. I am loving this series and the interconnected stories.
This author is all about the big bad mafia guy as we have seen from her previous books. Her guys are brutal, fearless, loyal and love deep and hard. Don’t touch what’s theirs if you plan to ever see another day. When he meets her he is instant consumed by her and her daughter. In his relentless single minded pursuit of her he finds out something about himself that shocks those that are closest to him. What he finds is something that totally shifts his world. Peace. The more he sees the more he wants but his background is always going to be an issue. When they touch what’s his he reminds them who he is, while he shows her that she’s his all three of them are one family. A beautiful emotional read that shares some of the challenges these special blessings can be. As he loves her daughter with the depth that he loves the mother while showing them both the love and care they have been missing. This author brings the story together with class smooth finesse and a loving touch.
I really enjoyed this! It was a great, quick read especially since I love alpha males and I loved the addition of a special needs child! The heroine was good too but did come off as being more bulldozed into things(except when it came to her daughter) instead of an active participant in the relationship. I would still definitely recommend it!
