Rule (The Larussio Legacy Book 1) by Via Mari – Review by Karyn Taylor

Rule The Larussio Legacy by Via Mari
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Rule is the first book in The Larussio Legacy by Via Mari. I have read several books by this author and have loved every single one of them. I hang my head in shame to say that I haven’t read the Prestian Affair series yet, where we get Chase and Katarina’s story. This is a fact that I must remedy ASAP.
There are several interlinked stories going on in this book and it is written from several points of view. The author used this to drive me nuts lol. As when one chapter left you hanging, the next chapter was from another POV and you had to wait to find out what happened next. To be fair, this is a great tactic from the author to keep you gripped to the story and it worked so well. So well, that I was tearing my hair out.
In this book Katarina is up against the rest of the Larussio family. Her father has been badly injured in a hit and run and has left Katarina and her cousin Giovanni in charge of fulfilling his dreams, dreams which the family in Italy are against and it is Katarina’s job to convince them otherwise.
In a second storyline we get to delve deeper into cousin Giovanni. Gio himself has branched out from the family business and has made himself a very wealthy man. During a flight on a private jet he meets the beautiful Serena and is smitten immediately. However, to Serena, and member of the Larussio family is the enemy and she wants nothing to do with him, even though her body is telling her otherwise.
There is also the hint of a 3rd storyline starting and that is between Sheldon (a member of the Prestian security team) and Alexis who is Katarina’s stylist. I’m pretty sure there is a story here that may just make it’s way into a Billionaire’s Bodyguards book. Please, please please!!
This book was amazing. It will have you on the edge of your seat with the danger and intrigue and at other time you will be fanning yourself with the steamy, hot sex scenes that Via Mari writes to perfection. I can’t wait to read the rest of this series.
