Is it possible for one person to have such luck? First Nadia witnesses a murder when she went looking for her father (a mafia boss). Then when she ran away, she runs into a guy who she begs to help her and his family is also involved in the mafia. But while Vincenzo’s father is a mafia boss, he’s a legitimate real estate attorney. While there is a definite attraction between them, Nadia isn’t sure she can trust him. At least not until the next morning when she finds some guys in her apartment.
The story contained a good mix of romance and suspense and kept you guessing as to how it would end. We got an introduction of all the members of the immediate Marchelli family and I can’t wait to read the rest of the series.
Very good book. I started this one a day ago and had to put it down to cook and clean. Otherwise I would have not set the book down. This wasn’t filled with tons of nonsense, but what family is all about. I loved Vince and Nadia together and how this book ended was just amazing.
Side note: The author stuck to the story line and never strayed from it. I was intrigued reading this one and look forward to to book two about Gianni. Maybe we’ll be reading about a wedding from the couple in book one, too 🙂
Ella Jade is one of my go-to authors as she never ever disappoints. This Mafia Heat series is going to be awesome since she started it out with a damn bang!
This storyline is one of a kind with a great set of strong characters. I loved everyone in this book I have to say even the “bad” guys are somehow not totally evil. At least not all of them. I am excited to see where Ella takes us with the next one.
When Nadia went looking for answers, she never imagined her curiosity would put her in such danger. But it also brought Vincenzo into her life. The instant feelings they couldn’t ignore were smoldering, and the suspense and action was so engaging and entertaining. I liked the characters, and the trouble that surrounded their families kept the pages turning!
This is the first book in a new series from this talented author. Nadia is running from a scene that she mistakenly witnessed, and runs straight into Vincenzo accidentally. Will he be able to keep her safe, or will her secrets be the end of any relationship? No spoilers; this is a definite must read, you will not be disappointed! This is a well written story which had me totally captivated throughout this addictive page turner. I look forward to reading more in this series, and highly recommend this authors’ work for all readers.
This is a captivating and engrossing story. I loved both Nadia and Vincenzo. They make such unique couple considering their family connections. An intense mafia story loaded with danger, suspense, violence and betrayal while still having a dose of humor and a hot steamy romance. All the makings of a great read. Can’t wait to read more.
With Nadia running away from a scene she wishes she’d never witnessed, she accidentally runs right into Vincenzo as he is leaving a restaurant. Vince notices that Nadia is breathless, sweaty and she seems to be running from somebody. When he glances over her shoulder he sees a man he recognizes and knows something bad went down to send Nadia running. But they seem to have an attraction and Vince isn’t about to let anything happen to Nadia, so he takes her with him and drops her off close to her house. Nadia ends up at Vince’s office the next day because someone was in her home while she went to get coffee the next morning. Vince vows to help and Nadia is a little relieved. Can these two form a relationship amidst the chaos or will Nadia’s secret turn out to be their undoing? Grab this wonderful story today to find out!
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. Definitely recommend this book as a must read.
Vince and Nadia’s story kicks off what looks to be a very interesting series about the mafia. There is family, suspense, suspicion, mafia (shootings, kidnapping, hiding, illegal activity, etc), and love throughout the story. I didn’t want to put the book down. I volunteered to read an advanced copy of this book.

If you like to get hot and bothered while reading about sexy men then this book if for you.
I received an ARC from the author in exchange for a fair and honest review.
I woke up during the night, started this book, thought I would read for a bit and fall back to sleep. Big mistake! I couldn’t put the book down! I recommend this book – but I advise not to start it right before you want to fall asleep. I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.
What a couple…Vincenzo and Nadia, the son of a mob boss and the illegitimate daughter of a rival mob boss. When Nadia goes searching for her dad, she comes across a dangerous situation and Vincenzo is there to get her out of a jam. He extends his help and she comes collecting a day later. Vincenzo takes her into safe keeping with his family but she doesn’t reveal all and her suspicions on who her dad is….will it be too late when he finds out the truth.
A great read with steam and I loved these two, how they interacted, how little drama was between them and how they resolved all their secrets…nice surprise and a refreshing outcome with what happened. I adored Vincenzo and how protective he was, how kind and generous and the lengths he went to for her. Nadia was a bit naive but I loved how she didn’t let who his family is stand in the way of their happiness. I can’t wait for Gianni’s story !!!!
