My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Warning there are triggers…

This is the fourth book in the Mafia Elite and they just get better and better. I would recommend you read the other books in the series so you can follow the characters and plots that will lead to one. The characters are amazing I loved their little quirks. The plot and description was amazing.
Mafia princess Elena Caruso has been on the run for years she had to cut all family ties to survive. She has trained for years so when she gets word that her cover has been blown, she attempts to leave but she ends up in the love of her life who in all purposes is now dangerous but she is running from him too.
For years Chicago Mob boss Marco La Rosa thought the only woman he’d ever loved had died years ago. So, when her brother offers him an arranged marriage, he soon finds out she is alive and in danger.
Can Marco get to Elena before her enemies? Will her be able to protect her? Will Elena let Marco help her or will she run from him again? Will Elena go back to the family and will the family welcome her back with open arms?

You will need to read this book to find out the answers to my questions…

Wildcat (MetroGen After Hours, #1)Wildcat by Carina Alyce
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This I the first book that I have read by this author and also the first book in the Metro-Gen after hours series. This is a short steamy romance that has humor suspense and drama. I loved the Characters and their quirks.

Leslie McClunis is a firefighter that loves cuss like a guy and kick her one-night stands to the curb in the morning like a guy. She isn’t looking for Mr. Forever just Mr. Right now. She doesn’t have time for a relationship

Trevor Hampton is football’s biggest, baddess defensive end. So, he isn’t used to being shown the door. After Leslie shows him the door, he realizes he wants her for more than one night? He vows to do anything to get his firefighting wildcat.

Can Trevor break down Leslie’s walls? Can he convince her that she can be herself while with him? Can they over come the obstacles in the way?

You will really need to read this story in order to find out….

Face the FireFace the Fire by Michele Sims
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Before You go any farther, please read the first four books in order so you get the full dynamic of the Moore family.

This is the fifth book in Moore Family Saga and I simply loved this latest installment. The characters are strong and well written and I just love the storyline and the depth. This is a Paranormal Romance/Suspense all rolled into one. This author has really outdone herself with this book and I can’t wait to see what she has installed for us in her next book…

We get to catch up with Bella and Miles and what the family is up to and the new adventures they embarked on….

This is a great book/series….
