Talk about a story! Wow! Forbidden love…angst…mafia…suspense…crime… this book has it all. I really appreciated how the author developed the characters inside the relationship with each other as well as the factors pulling them apart. If you love a good guy/bad guy romance – this one is a must read.

Sinful Daughter (Dark Mafia Sins Book 1) by Emily Bowie I love a good Mob book and this one was great! Its the story of Theo Fox who is a cop and is determined to take down the largest mafia family around. Theo has a major grudge against them for killing his father so the stakes are high in this case. When Theo meets Aria Rossi things change. She is the daughter of this mob boss and when he gets in with her he thinks he’s going to be able to take them down no problem. Only problem is he likes Aria, really likes her. He is consumed with thoughts of her and wants nothing more than her. She makes him rethink what is right and what is wrong. Aria knows she is supposed to hate Theo but there is something there that she can’t help but respond to. She knows he’s out to get her family but she still likes him. Will Theo take down this family or will his feelings get in the way? Read Sinful Daughter to find out!

Sinful Daughter: A mafia Romance by Emily Bowie

This is the first book I’ve read by Bowie. This book had me hanging on the edge of my seat the entire time. Theo and Aria had me falling in love.

Aria is the oldest of the girls. Not wanting to be in the family business she gets caught up in it. When Theo enters her life it’s turned upside down. The quote I chose for Aria is: “I thought it would be exciting. I envisioned saving my family, showing I can be as good at this life as them. I was petrified that I put my family’s lives in danger. I was scared I would never see you, to tell you how big of an a**hole you are—”

Theo is a cop and isn’t a dirty one. His only reason for being a good guy is to find who killed his dad. Once he finds out who it is, things change. He thought he could use Aria, but didn’t think he’d fall in love. The quote I chose for Theo is: “I know I let you down by us losing the case with Marco. But I have evidence, hard proof, that Nicoli Rossi killed my father. This evidence will put him away. This is the break we’ve been looking for.”

Highly recommended for Romantic Suspense lovers.

Sinful Daughter (Dark Mafia Sins Book 1) by Emily Bowie – Review by Krista Vaughan

Aria is the daughter of the mob boss and potentially the future family lawyer. Theo is maybe the only cop on the force who can’t be bought. Perfect relationship material? You wouldn’t think so, but these two can’t stay away from each other. How can they POSSIBLY make this work? I found myself rooting for the underdog in this action-packed Mafia romance. Worth the read!

This was a great 5 star read. Once I started I didn’t want to put it down.

Aria is a mafia princess with an attitude. She has plans to be a lawyer for the family. One night her father shares some news with her that changes everything. She decides to rebel a little and ends up going out with her friend, she ends up meeting a very hot cop, Theo.

Theo has a goal to go after Aria’s family but after meeting Aria he can’t resist her. Everytime he is near her he is drawn to her. These two have some very steamy moments, dangerous moments I might add, especially if her father were to find out.

How will this all end for them? Can they have a HEA? What will happen if their secret comes out?

Overall this was a great read. I felt like there were several stories in this book and I loved it. The author did a great job with her writing and pulled you right in. All of the characters added a great element to the story. I really loved Aria and her sassiness. You could feel their attraction coming off the pages. If you’re looking for a great mafia read 1-click and get started on this book today.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

There is so much tension in this novel;  from who is threatening who, to who wants to get into bed with who, in more ways than one! Aria and Theo are the perfectly wrong people for each other: she’s the daughter of a mafia boss; he’s a cop out to punish those who thought they were above the law, especially the Rossi family. Of course that’s what makes the sexual tension between Aria and Theo palpable. They just can’t seem to stay away from one another, despite the prying eyes. And Aria’s privacy and passions are truly tested when she is forced into an arranged marriage for the sake of her family. In a crime family where nothing is as it seems, who can Aria trust, with her heart and with her secrets?

3.5 stars rounded up. I wanted to enjoy this novel so much more than I did. I enjoyed the premise and the sexual tension between Aria and Theo, as well as the push and pull between the Rossi’s and Mancini’s, and Theo and the Rossi’s, however I couldn’t immerse myself in the story completely. I felt like the story was drawn out and more drama added without giving a reason or a truly viable conclusion. I also personally didn’t like the writing style used. Maybe I can come back and reread in the future and enjoy the story and all the drama more, but for now I’m left feeling underwhelmed.

I must be honest here, when I picked up this novel, I had my doubts. Even at the beginning, for the first few chapters, I didn’t feel like I was really “in it.” I felt as though I was skipping back to the beginning to recall who was who in the two Mafia families that they discuss, and it took away from some of the story. Really, I have not been interested in any Mafia oriented books, shows, or movies before, and took a chance at picking this up. Well, once I was a fair bit into Aria and Theos forbidden love story, I was NOT putting it down.

I started diving deeper into the relationships between Aria and her father, and other sisters, along with her older adopted brother, and the sort of ‘sheltered’ life she had lived up until this point. Being told what to do is not something I’ve ever been a fan off, so I could certainly relate to not only Aria, but her sister Katrina’s character as well. Arrogant, authoritative personas have been my kryptonite, so when I started to get to know Theos character a bit more throughout this novel, I must admit, I was falling for him.

Overall, I quite enjoyed that Emily Bowie’s Sinful Daughter – Mafia Romance, though wish I had of taken more time to really get to understand the inner workings of the Mafia, and what that means for all family members. I loved the twists and turns that she brings into the main plot line, and the cliffhanger ending. I will be reading the next installment, and with the whole modern day ‘Romeo and Juliet’ feel this story gives off, I have to say I’m quite excited to get to know the other family members better! Thank you, Emily, for this change of pace. Wonderful read!

Sinful Daughter: A Mafia Romance by Emily Bowie is a brilliant story about two people from the same world but on opposite sides. This is the first book that I have read by this author and what an introduction!! Right from the start this book takes off with a bang. It is such an intense story. The attraction that each of the characters have for the other, the interns battles to stop the emotions. I was hooked immediately. The book itself was a pretty quick read but it was so fast paced that it suited this style. At times it felt like the pages were almost turning themselves I was so engrossed in what was happening.
This is a fantastic book and the best way to be introduced to a new author. If this book is anything to go by I cannot wait to discover more of her work.

Sinful Daughter by Emily Bowie if you are into romance and into mafia romance. Especially forbidden love and enemies to lover this book is for you.

Theo Fox: I’m about to bring down the world’s most powerful mafia family. Until next time, Aria Rossi. She’s seductive and feisty in equal measure. I really want to despise her. She, on the other hand, absorbs me and draws me into her universe. Every time we meet, she blurs the borders between good and wrong, distorting my moral compass. She’s turned into a diversion that will lead to my death. Will I make the correct decision if I had to pick between a profession I enjoy and a girl I have to despise? Is there ever such a thing as a choice?

Aria Rossi: He’s the one officer who can’t be bought, and he’s turning us against each other. I desire him, yet I despise him. He should be off-limits, but I can’t say no when he puts his hands on my body. My family is on the verge of war, and Theo Fox wants to win by eradicating the Rossi surname. I never begged for him to take my heart, yet it was never in doubt. The entire globe is on fire. Will my heart survive my frantic endeavor to preserve my family, or will it turn to ash? When the smoke clears, will any of us be standing?

I loved this story and the concept of it as well. I love stories like this they can be very entertaining. Definitely recommend. This is the first book that I have read from this author, I cant wait to read more.

She is a gorgeous woman who has caught Theo’s attention. She is confident, beautiful and knows what she wants, but she also knows how the mafia life works. It’s clearly a case of “you can’t have your cake and eat it too.” These two think they can sneak around. Little do they know but Mafia Dad sees all and knows all. Dealing with local drug dealers, sister drama, rival mafia families, and matchmaking families can make a normal person crazy but Aria handles it all.

Will she crash emotionally? You are just going to have to pick up the book and check it out. This book brings all the feels and emotions. Characters are awesome.

What happens when a cop falls for a mafia princess- a member of the crime family he has been working so hard to take down? Well do yourself a favour and snap up a copy because this book is well worth the read to discover all the sizzling, sexy, and intriguing details for yourself….
Sinful Daughter is the first book in the Dark Mafia Sins series by Emily Bowie. It is a romantic suspense with a bit of a forbidden romance element as Theo is law enforcement and Aria is mafia- the story is full of tension, action, drama, danger, angst, and emotion.
I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series- Book two releases in Sept (2021)- Sinful Kisses is Gia and Romeo’s story- an enemies to lovers story that looks set to be fantastic!

Thank you, Emily Bowie!

Aria and Theo are an exceptional storyline. I loved this book from the start! Tons of action, tons of sass from a spoiled mafia princess and arrogant straight and narrow cop. This story was hot, hot, hot. Everytime it took an unexpected turn I couldn’t be happier. If you like stories with mafia ties this is definately for you!

I LOVED this story SO much! I am still thinking about it days later which makes me so glad I gave this book a shot. I enjoy mafia stories but sometimes the romance outweighs the mafia side. In here..the romance is woven in perfectly with all the mafia business.

Both of the MC’s are rock stars in their own right. She is a sassy mafia princess and he is a cocky cop but when the are together they blend perfectly (I did have some misgivings about Theo, which are listed below). While they are completely opposite characters their chemistry is off the charts! I enjoyed meeting her family as well. They each have their own personalities/quirks which fit in well.

Theo shocked the heck out of me at the beginning and I thought “what a jerk” I am NEVER going to like this guy! But…Holy Smokes was I ever wrong! Not only did I change my opinion of him but I 100% think he is one of my favorite male characters this year!

This writing is well done and easily drew me in. I can’t believe how this author wound this story around my heart….squeezed it to death….then brought me back to life. I am anxiously awaiting the next in this series!

Sinful Daughter (Dark Mafia Sins Book 1) by Emily Bowie was just simply amazing. Personally I love a good mafia romance novel but Ms. Bowie really kept me on my toes with this one. Her characters are so enticing that I found myself furiously flipping the pages to see what came next. While Ms. Bowie makes us easily believe that our female lead is shy, she is really strong and independent and knows exactly what she wants. Meanwhile our male lead leads us to believe that he’s a bill headed man, but he’s really a soft teddy bear under that rough exterior. Ms. Bowie not only gave us fantastic characters but also a terrific plot that keeps us interested until the very end.

I was left on the edge of my seat while reading this book, the story line, the passion, the characters, the suspense, the danger, etc. all of it gripped me and wouldn’t let go and instead left me wanting more. Honestly, as I read the story I found there were moments my hopes and dreams crashed, and times new light was cast upon my thoughts, and truly I was not sure in the least how the end would be when I completed this amazing gripping book!

The story was a gripping romance right from the beginning. As I would think a lot of people know when it comes to the Mafia there is many matters of the law and what is unethical as well as you don’t mess with them, as anyone would probably know, you mess with one of them, or someone dear to them, your asking for a death sentence, literally. In the questions of the heart though, there is truly a thin line I believe with love and the right thing to do. Ethically speaking. What would you choose if you were given the choice to have true love knowing it could very well cost you everything, and well anything?

The story is around Theo and Aria. Two souls basically in the cross fire in the feeling of what feels right yet knowing its wrong. they know their differences an basically every reason the book why they can not even consider being together? Can two souls who burn for one another truly be separated and prevented from finding their way to one another? What if the passion burned so much they just did not care what happened or any consequences of just that? What if the thought of the pain of not being together could be very far worse than not feeling one another’s touch or the passion that could be ignited just from being close to one another?

Theo is a cop. A damn good one too. He knows what his lawful duties are and he abides to them. Respectively with a passion for what he does for a living. Come along Aria. She is a daughter that is born into a Mafia, the one Theo is on the hunt to take down. Upon their interactions, they fall hard for one another even though they as hard as they can to not want one another or need one another. Some flames can not be put out. Both of them know the love they share and feel is not to be and forbidden as it basically will not end well, but in truth as long as they try to fight it they succumb to what they want and passion only gets stronger over time,

Personally Theo was an amazing character. He was a Prince Charming sort of character in the form of a cop. He was far from ordinary though. He cared not just with his feelings of his heart, but truly everything he had with in himself. He would risk it all for those he loved. In truth, he would protect those he laid down his loyalty to his very own death. He would protect you at what ever costs, and he honestly was a man of his word. Which in this growing world is hard to come by.

Aria was a loaded pistol, but she had a brain that was so easily to admire.. Yes, she is the eldest in her family for the Mafia, but she was not just going to let that title define how she was going to and how she should live her life. I loved her strength she carried and how she would go after what she wanted and she would not let the world control her no mater how hard she tried. She had the attitude of you live only once, so make sure you live a life you would consider worth living!

Theo’s and Aria’s love was one that was not written in the fairy tale books. It was one that should never be considered. Passion and flames of desire go hand in hand, their love made this book so addictive and so freaking good. I could not put this one down. I was into it when I first started, and as it progressed on I was left with myself biting my nails hoping for a good turn out, but in truth I had no idea how this would turn out as I knew very well as Theo and Aria, the taste of what is not allowed and should never be, is worth every cost and consequence, but in truth you have no idea what will be the end result.

I freaking loved this book! The romance and the suspense was so real and I felt the passion and love between Theo and Aria. I truly did not want this book to end. It took my soul and made me feel literally everything in this amazing book.

The author knew what they were doing and truly made a great story that sucks you in and holds you down the last word on the final page. Again I loved it and I highly recommend reading this, its amazing and I can not stress this enough, you will not be disappointed in the very least. I am very much looking for forward to the next book by this amazing author. I know I would not want to miss out!

To sum it up again, loved it with every passion in my soul, and truly recommend you read this!

Sinful Daughter sucked me in before I even started reading it! The description sounded like it would be a really good intense story, and that is exactly how I would describe it. I haven’t read anything by Emily Bowie before, but I hope this turns into a whole series, because I am hooked. Before the story begins, we are given an outline of the characters and family tree. I found this pretty helpful, to get an introduction to the characters and get a feel for the families. There are 2 main mafia families (Rossis and Mancinis) in this story, and the cops either workings for them, or trying to bring them down. The story bounces back and forth between Theo and Aria’s perspective, which I really enjoyed. It let us get a feeling for the main characters. This book is packed full of danger, drama, romance, and all the feels. The romance is pretty detailed and intense, so for mature audiences only. I cannot wait to read more in this series, and highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys romantic books and mafia thrill.

Sinful Daughter is a fantastic contemporary romance novel by Emily Bowie. I do love a good mafia romance and this book had it all. I had never read of Emily Bowie’s writing before this book and I can say I will definitely be reading more in the future as I thoroughly enjoyed Sinful Daughter.
Theo Fox is a good cop and his ambition is to bring down the two big mafia families in the city: the Rossi’s and the Mancini’s. SO what happens when he meets the gorgeous Aria Rossi, eldest daughter of Nicoli Ross, head of the mafia family. Theo is still determined to bring the family down but how can he do that and fall in love with Aria at the same time.
Lawyer Aria Rossi is the only Rossi sibling who is not involved in the family business and is conflicted as to what her future holds. She certainly didn’t expect that future to include hot cop Theo Fox.
I loved reading Theo and Aria’s story. It is full of drama, intrigue and danger and all the things you expect from a good mafia story. I was pulled into this story from the very start and loved the roller coaster journey that it took me on right up to the very end.
I definitely recommend this book, especially if you like a mafia romance.

She was only a way in to bringing the whole house of cards down, but somewhere along the way I fell in love with the Mafia Princess.

Theo has dedicated his career as a cop to hunt down the bad guys and bring them to justice none so more that the Rossi’s, a mafia stronghold in the community which needs chopping off at the top but while he was trying to infiltrate into the ‘Family’ he did not expect to fall for the person he was trying to use to get in.

Arya is the oldest daughter in the Rossi family and her life has been planned out from an early age, being a Lawyer was never really her choice but now with her father asking her to make a decision to represent the family she is torn. Until she meets Theo, she knows that she should not be attracted to him, he is determined to destroy her family and if her family found out they would kill him but the attraction is too strong to just let it be a fleeting glance.

Can Arya and Theo make the relationship work or are they fighting against each other and the good and bad they both represent.

I love a good forbidden, angst love story and this one is up there, the characters are brilliantly written and draw you into the story from the first words written. Although the differences within there backgrounds it was nice to see that not all characters are shallow. The character of Arya although sheltered alot from the family business was not a whimpering woman in the corner but showed within her character that she was strong deep down and played brilliantly against the straight laced follow the law character of Theo.

The book was well written and the story held me all the way to the end, although this is the first book I have read by this author I will definitely be reading more in the future.

Sinful Daughter: A mafia Romance by Emily Bowie is a dangerous and forbidden mafia romance that is dramatic and edgy. This story was very well written and very engaging. Add in a love between a cop and a mafia princess, and I am one happy reader. Another bonus is I have found another creative and talented author to add to my bookshelf.

Theo is a straight arrow that is after justice. Aria was everything he never expected. Sparks flew from the very beginning and continued to intensify throughout the story. The attraction was magnified by constant danger and secrecy. It keeps a reader on the knife’s edge. There is nothing better that danger magnifying emotions and actions. There is a lot of these stories out there, but this author puts an original spin on it and delivers a powerful and energetic drama with explosive sexual energy and brilliant characters. 4 stars.

Mafia bosses daughter and a by the book cop…..what happens when Aria and Theo fall in love? This story is very good and I enjoyed it very much. Aria is hesitant to join her family as a mafia lawyer and is a “fixer”. She helps her best friend’s mom to pay off drug debts and feels like she need to fix any problem that comes in her way. Theo is by the book cop, dedicated and is driven by his fathers untimely death when he as just a boy. Sparks happen when Theo has a plan to get in on the Rossi family and the mafia family, and involves Aria. Even though they are on different sides, I loved them together. There are definitely some twists in the story….Aria and Theo keeping their romance a secret, finding out what happened to Theo’s dad and and the power driven Rossi family. Great read.

Hello Mafia romance!!
I absolutely love a forbidden romance story. Aria and Theo are completely overtaken with their feelings for each other. They try to fight to that their romance is forbidden but cannot help themselves. You have suspense and unexpected plot twists. Emily nails it with her telling of Aria and Theo’s story. When you get so involved in the story that you find yourself rooting for the “bad guys” is the best kind of experience.
I hope her next book answers some questions that she leaves hanging with this book.

This mafia romance had me feeling so many things!! This is my first Emily Bowie book and I learned that she is a great writer. This is a story about how a mafia princess secretly falls in love with an enemy. The book takes you through the ups and downs and difficulty love can bring when it is forbidden. Throughout the book, my emotions went on a roller coaster from anger to curiosity to steamy to heartache and to love. I literally was oohing, aahhing, smiling, and crying throughout. The way she uses description had me in the mix of this mafia family. She made it suspenseful, surprising, a happy ending that didn’t come easily, and left me wanting to read the rest of her series!! It was one of those books that when I went to bed last night I dreamt about the book because I was sad it was over!

This is the first book i have read by this author and i really enjoyed it. This is a Mafia Romance about forbidden love and its a story that will keep on on the rollercoaster of emotions from beginning to end.

Theo is a cop. He is the only cop that the Mafia families can’t buy. His main goal in life is to bring down both the Rossi family and their rivals the Mancinis. However all his best laid plans go wrong when he falls for the daughter of the Rossi Family.

Aria is the daughter of the Rossi Family. After being told by her father she is going to be in an arranged marriage Aria is devastated as she wants to marry for love. When she meets a man and falls for him she starts to believe things could be different until she realises he is a cop. And the cop who wants to destroy her family.

They both know their attraction and love is wrong however they keep getting drawn to each other despite the risk. Will they take the risks and be together or will their risk be for nothing.

Aria Rossi is the eldest daughter and second out of five children for her father, Nicoli Rossi, the greatly feared Mafia don. Aria’s dream of being a lawyer is close to happening. If she decides to join the family, Aria thinks she knows what her life would be. While she is deciding on the path she will take, Aria decides to live someone else’s life for just one night. Lori, Aria’s best friend, takes Aria to a place no one will recognize her.

Theo Fox is an honest cop. Theo Fox has made it his mission as a police officer to find a way to break both mafia families in the area. When he stumbles across, and by stumble I mean deliberately plans and shows up where she is, Aria on her night of freedom, Theo finds more than he bargains for in Aria. As the dangerous relationship between Aria and Theo starts, Aria finds herself in an arranged engagement. Can Aria and Theo ever be together? Will Theo give up his morals for Aria?

If screaming at a book is any indication of an amazing read, this one is beyond amazing. Emily Bowie makes sure you can feel the danger, the heat, the steam and the heartbreak. This book is kind of like the mafia, once you are in, you are in for life! Some of the characters surprise you when you least expect it. Then, there is that thing that happens. Not the first one that leaves you breathless but the second one that leaves you completely confused.

Sinful Daughter (Dark Mafia Sins Book 1) by Emily Bowie – Review by Jenni Bishop

Sinful DaughterSinful Daughter by Emily Bowie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sinful Daughter: A mafia Romance by Emily Bowie is a forbidden love story where the good guy falls in love with the Mafia boss’s daughter and the one man he is trying to bring down. I haven’t read any of Emily’s books before and I was pleasantly surprised. This action packed and tension filled tale is full of twists and turns. It is raw and gritty, and entertaining, and full of emotions. He is hellbent on revenge and she wants nothing to do with the family business. She is his way in, and he is her ticket out. But in the end who is left standing?
