SYNOPSIS
Caterina
All my life I’ve been a sheltered mafia princess so I’m used to having guards follow me around. But what I’m not used to is having a super overprotective and annoying bodyguard who also happens to be insanely sexy sharing my apartment with me to provide twenty-four-hour protection. It doesn’t take long for me to learn he’s nothing like the controlling mob man I had pegged him for, but in fact the very opposite. In fact, he’s everything I’ve ever wanted in a lover. All for except for one huge detail- he’s a mob man, the exact man I said I didn’t want a future with.
Dominick
I’ve had it bad for Caterina since the day I was assigned to be her bodyguard. Her spoiled ass can’t stand me but it just makes me want to fu*k her into oblivion that much more. When her brother orders me to move in with her for her protection, I know it won’t be long before she drives me to insanity traipsing around half naked in her little lingerie. I’m just a solider to the famiglia, so while I wish I could give her the world, I know it will never be possible, even if I move up in rank. I know I may not be what she wants but I’m hoping my love itself will be enough for her.

This is the second book I've read from this author and I'm really happy to support new writers. In this book I have noticed that the author is evolving in her writing. I have read a little more of the background of the characters, but still wished if she went deeper into the story, specifically in relation to the family business, I feel that what is planned and the ways of executing it still have gaps and could be filled if they were more detailed, I was a little hasty, but this are little things that can be improved.
The main characters have been fine, Caterina in her role as a Mafia princess had her moments when I despaired of her attitude, at times she seemed to me more like an immature young girl who just wanted to get away with it, I didn't understand that attitude of being upset that the Mafia men were doing what she didn't want or refused to accept that they were doing, but I imagine that it was more of a denial to see that she is falling in love with someone who represents all that she wants to run away from.
Dominick didn't convince me much in his role, even though I like man who have their sensitive and sweet side, I like that they are stronger in character and presence.
Nello shows up here again but I sensed that he was too weak with the situation between Cat and Dom, he took things too calmly and it didn't seem like the attitude of a mafia boss to me.
But even though for me those details have lowered a star I found it a good reading. This author is improving with every book.
I'll keep an eye on her next project.
