General Fiction (Adult) | Romance
Description
We are the Rossetti's.
The exiled "sixth family" of the New York mafia. We're the good guys.
People don't fear us...much. They respect us.
The five of us? We're the Brooklyn Brothers.
And we protect what's ours.
After a gunshot wound to the chest, I died on an operating table. Then I came back to life. Yet the thing that’s going to take me down is a redheaded Irish bartender who has a pension for trouble and drinking me under the table. Ash Donahue is brave, beautiful, and scarily street wise. In fact, she’s the only woman I’ve ever met who seems remotely capable of handling the kind of baggage a man like me comes with.
Not to mention, she has secrets that could very well rival my own.
I’m a soldier, a warrior. That’s all I’ll ever be. No woman wants to be strapped with that for the rest of her life. But every time we remind ourselves why we’re completely wrong for each other, we end up tangled together in the stock room. Or on top of the bar. Or against a wall.
That all changes when I find out what brought her to my city. How could she not tell me her uncle is the Irish mob boss? And how am I supposed to protect her from him and my family from our countless enemies, all at the same time?
When this story opened up I went, "uh-oh" Things were not looking good for Ash..at all. And she isn't looking very innocent. Even Rome is shocked by what is happening but that is only the "opening shot". That really drew me in because what the heck is going on? I thought she was the heroine of the piece, sort of. But to get the answers I just had to keep reading as the beginning started to unfold. Oh, the secrets that Ash is holding!!
Rome was a tortured soul that so few really understood. He loved his twin and his family but they didn't really get it either. Ash saw inside of him and he didn't understand it but welcomed it.
You'll just have to prepare yourself for rough language, and plenty of hot sex. Once you get past that there is actually a pretty good story with lots of action. With quite the surprise twist or two at the end.
I liked how the story ended.
