I took my dream job in an Atlantic City casino—then discovered my boss is
a mafia attorney whose baby I now carry.
When my college roommate hires me as
Marketing Manager at Conti Enterprises, I see it as my ticket to the top.
What I don't expect is her uncle
Roberto—the mysterious executive whose dark eyes strip me bare and whose quiet
authority slowly exposes a raw hunger I didn’t know existed within me.
At
forty-four, the widowed attorney is everything I shouldn’t want.
Grumpy.
Closed off. Lethally magnetic.
Late nights revitalizing our marketing
campaign blur into something far more primal as I’m introduced to soft
restraints and whispered commands.
He touches me as if I already belong
to him and unlocks something deep inside me, as I realize I have fallen for
this enigmatic man.
Then I
find it—evidence of money laundering buried deep in files I review daily. My
hands shake. My world tilts.
The man
I'm falling for is a criminal.
The
family that embraced me could destroy everything I've built.
Roberto's confession shatters me—they're
the notorious Conti crime family, and he's their legal weapon.
I'm planning my escape when twoSo pink
lines appear.
Now I'm trapped between the safe life
I left behind and a dangerous man whose baby is growing inside me—in a world I
never knew existed.

----MY REVIEW NOTES TITLED: Olivia gets tired of so many Lies and Secrets
It starts out slow, building a good foundation with plenty of descriptive scenes of locations and systems. And some of the people like Caterina Conti who is not only her college friend but also now her exacting but good boss. It got into too much information for my comfort when it came to setting things up for the casino. But Caterina is keeping secrets !
Olivia Romano thrives in chaos so she can bring order. Roberto is farther in that category. He's an annoyingly controlling, neat nick who MUST have order and Quiet times to function. His housekeeper knows what to do..coffee and food in the morning to keep his edge calm. Who is Maria and why does he keep shutting thoughts about her? It was a question that I kept thinking until it got cleared up.
However, things got more interesting to me when Roberto and Olivia get stuck in an elevator when everyone has already gone home. She gets panicked. Shes not good in an elevator on her good day according to her. Things get incredibly sexually tense and includes rough play.
I liked when the family members were included in more depth and it was shown that his brother, Antonio was the "charmer" of the group. Danger happens to a CLOSE family member but it does get "resolved." The family pulls together and Olivia gets a closer look, a different view to this dangerous family.
Happy ending for Roberto and Olivia does earn a sigh and smile from me on how it all ends for them. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
