⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5 stars

Giovanni is fighting to keep Amelia after she overheard him talking to two thugs. She feels so betrayed. She really thought they had something more than her being a staff person on his payroll, but perhaps it was all in her head. He made a promise to her father on his deathbed, and he is now fulfilling that promise.

Amelia is so confused. She has feelings for Giovanni, but she also feels betrayed. When his friends come for a visit, she hopes for her chance to gain allies and hopefully she can also find peace of mind. However, she’s just as afraid of his friends as she is of Giovanni.

I am loving this story. Giovanni and Amelia have pined for each other for years and now that they have the chance to be together other factors are at work and Giovanni’s whole plan could go out the window. These two are actually made for each other, but they will need to get a lot of things out in the open before they can have a HEA. I love the characters and the story, and I am looking forward to what happens when Giovanni lands in Maine. I give this story a 5-star review and recommend this book to anyone that enjoys mafia, secret society stories, and Alpha men that want to control everything in their lives.
