About this eBook

Enjoy this steamy possessive, dark Italian mafia romance....

Antonio loves his life just the way it is. Money, cars, more women than he can count. He wants for nothing, except to not be forced to follow in his father’s footsteps. The mafioso lifestyle isn’t for him… at least, not yet. 

With pressure mounting, he soon realizes he’s more like his father than he thought he was. That proves even evident when one of the many women in his life tries to pin a baby on him and force him to commit. That pressure pushed him over the edge and drives him to do something he swore he’d never do. Now he must live with what he’s done and who he has become. 

Note:This is a short story that takes place before the Antonio and Sabrina Book 1. Adult content and explicit language.

Ratings and reviews

Great Beginnings by Dale This prequel of Antonio’s story is the beginning of being ready to handle business at any given moment. I’m truly looking forward to seeing what’s going to happen next in their life. I voluntarily received an advanced copy of this book via Booksprout and any opinions expressed within this review are solely and uniquely made by me and I am happily leaving this review.

This prequel is a fast read. Its chock full of action. This story grabs you from the beginning and makes you want to read the rest of the series. This is my first book by Chiquita but it wont be my last. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. It only took me a few minutes to read this but I want more. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

What a great start to this series. It’s a short but it’s intriguing and only helped me want to know more of Antonio and what will be happening. He’s ruthless and I can tell he’s going to be a handful. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
