Synopsis
***** Recommended for readers 18+ *****

He’s lived a life of high society and privilege; he chose to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a Senator.

She’s lived a life surrounded with underworld activity; she had no choice but to follow in her father’s footsteps and take on the role of Mob Boss. 

He wants to stamp out organised crime and can’t be bought off. 

She's the ruthless and tough Mob Boss where in her world all lines are blurred. 

Their lives are completely different, two walks of life on the opposite ends of the law.

But being apart isn’t an option.

My Review
4 Totally Different,Hot, Bad-ass, Action packed Stars!!


Okay so when I read this synopsis I was so excited, it sounds so good.I loved Margaret McHeyzer books (HiT series) and I was intrigued to see how this book would turn out.I have to say if you are wanting to read about a whiny, weak, sweet female main character yeah this book isn't for you because Margaret just doesn't roll that way ;) If you are looking for a bad-ass, independent, sometimes bitchy character who doesn't whine all the time and stands up for herself then my friends this is the book for you!

Frankie DeLuca isn't your average women, whilst she may look all beautiful and delicate there is a lot more to her than meets the eye.At the beginning you see her character as cold, bitchy and in control. Its what you have to be when you are a Mob Boss.In a world of crime, power and money you have to toughen up and there is no time for normal things, normal can get you killed because when you look at it being a Mob Boss isn't a normal job. After her father died she had to take over and now this is her life.

"..I'm not good, I'll never be good.I give orders that would give you nightmares.I can destroy anyone with a simple look.Do you understand that?.."

Jeremy Miller is a Senator. After his father dies he decided to follow his footsteps and now he wants to rid the area of crimes taking place. He wants to stamp out organised crime and can’t be bought off.Little does he know his life will be flipped and lines between good and bad will become blurred. It all happens when Frankie knocks right into Jeremy. They have a connection, chemistry and much more.
What will happen when Jeremy finds out that the connections between DeLuca's and Miller's runs deep.

How can one man look so perfect and be so gorgeous yet be a pain in my fucking arse. Jeremy Miller's a Senator.

Can a mob Boss and Senator be in a relationship? Will the past connections bring them together or rip them apart? With dangers all around how long will it all last?

At first I felt like oohh I don't really know about this, I love an alpha male so when I read this and its like Frankie is running the show I felt out of my comfort zone. I had to question the fact that why is it okay when its the guy but when its a women being like uhm Alpha female? ( weird right?) it made me feel slightly uncomfortable.Well at first I felt like Jeremy was being a bit of a pussy then later on he kind of takes back the control its more balanced. I liked that it was different , I liked watching their relationship change throughout.How Frankie gives up her control.She has always had to take control because that who she is, that's how she was raised and being a Mob Boss you have full rein to give it up feels like a weakness. Giving it up for Jeremy is different..

"I need you and I want you.My life for yours, Frankie."

This book is a stand-alone and is in Frankie's POV. I would have liked some parts to be in Jeremy's POV I wanted to know more about him and how he felt throughout this book.
Okay now the epilogue oh my.. I did not expect that at all!! Like why? My heart hurt! But yeah I got over it it's a lie I am dying here!
