Viktor, on the other hand, is better than our fathers, which he needs to be, seeing as he’s the head of the bratva. The feelings the stories stir up, the characters, the love that binds them all together within a walk on the darker side… Yeah, it only gets better and better… Read as a stand-alone and it is wonderful. They love each other for years but only got together officially when both of them are 26 and 34 years old.

I think this about all the heroes within this series but I can’t help it because its absolutely true— they are some of the most sweetest, most caring, most protective badass men I’ve read about, and Luca Cotroni is no different. To survive in my world, you have to be dead inside, be on guard at all times, and never dream of the impossible.

It’s not often I read books where the h can’t O, so when this comes up, I wanted it to be a big deal and be drawn out. And I never ever want to leave this dark world of filthy passion, jaw dropping action and raw emotions.He is a busy man and has been solidifying his position as the leader and a good leader never ever lets a good opportunity pass them by. No missing or damaged pages, no creases or tears, no underlining or highlighting of text, and no writing in the margins. Luca Cotroni is the head of the Italian Mafia and the man has been in love with Mariya from afar for as long as he can remember.

I loved how they were pining for each other unknowingly and trying to make each other fall in love in the meantime. After everything that Mariya has gone through she has decided also that she will no longer hide how she truly feels for Luca. Something that I don't like it very much if the hero or heroine have a crazy fvcked up personality and likes.They’re enjoying their time dancing, drinking, etc when Mariya gets the bright idea to get out of there. The king of the Priesthood and the beloved daughter of mafia royalty, their courtship was wracked with tension, suppressed feelings and a whole heck of a lot of family.
