About this ebook

I don't care that she's the boss' cousin and far beyond my reach. I've been patient, but now I'm claiming what's mine.

Giovanni

One year. That’s how long I’ve wanted Francesca. I’ve worked my way up the ranks, dedicating my life to the syndicate while I tried easing her fear of men.

The time has finally come for me to claim her.

Francesca

Seven years ago, my family’s enemy took everything from me. I’ve been determined to get it all back. When those same enemies nearly kill Giovanni, our friendship changes to something more.

Until a secret emerges that could destroy everything.

Ratings and reviews

I absolutely love this series. I am so happy for Francesca to finally found a HEA. I knew there was something between her and Gio since the first book about Jacob and Becca. I enjoyed reading about how Gio knew about her past and how slow he allowed things to move in consideration of her feelings. He even let her take complete control of the relationship until she became comfortable with him. I can not believe the revelation in the book about him and Jacob. The story was a great story that kept me enthralled throughout the reading and was a wonderful slow burn read until the last 1/4 of the book. Then it became very steamy. I would definitely recommend this book and this whole series to anyone who loves mafia romances. I cannot wait until the next story about Becca's brother Jack and the beautiful woman he found. I received a review copy of this book from the author and am leaving a voluntary honest review.

LK will WOW you with Giovanni and Francesca’s story! I was captured from the 1st chapter and could not put the book down until I turned the last page! There are some authors that I can’t wait to get their next story and LK Shaw is one of them as she pulls in plot twists with magnetic characters that will stay with you long after you turn the last page. Giovanni’s mother reveals a long hidden secret that has ramifications for Gio’s boss Jacob that you never see coming. What follows is a patient Giovanni working through Francesca’s past while establishing himself alongside Jacob. I can’t wait for the next for the next installment in the Brooklyn Kings series!

I read the entire series in one day. (well.. the three books that are available) It was really good and I enjoyed them. I would have given this 5 stars.... but there were so many grammatical errors. I could obviously look past them and they didn't mess up the story.... but they were so obvious... one basic read through would have shown them. and not just a missing comma... I'm talking sentences that don't have a space before starting a new sentence...obvious missing words ... using I've instead of I'm... (when it was so obvious which one should be used) It was crazy how many errors there were. So to me that means that this author definitely needs a new editor... or there was a rush to publish it and so she turned in the unedited first draft. Either way.... obvious, easy to see, mistakes like that shouldn't happen. not when people are spending money.
