Lylah James – Tainted Hearts Series Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

Book #4 JUST WENT LIVE and Tessa tells us it’s SHOCKING!!! GASP!!! I LOVE THAT!

Tessa: Okay, I’m going to tell anyone who loves Mafia and emotions, read The Mafia and his Angel. It’s the author’s debut book and I really fell for it. It wasn’t typical at all, despite the blurb. I just fell for the characters and the book. Also, my sincere favorite thing, well developed secondary characters.

Tessa: I finished Mafia and his Angel 2 and I’m physically shaking. That was INTENSE! Seriously intense. I honestly started and just kept reading without stopping except for a few must do around the house. It ended with an OH CRAP CH, and you know, next month is the final book, but seriously! If you have an issue with CH, wait for book three. If not, READ THIS. It’s super intense and surprisingly well written. read more

<— CRIME FAMILY ROMANCE ALERT!! CHRISTINE FEEHAN’S LATEST SERIES!! A new release in the series is coming out this month, and it appears this list is needed. 😉

About book #1:

Whether it’s fast cars or fast women, Stefano Ferraro gets what he wants. When he’s not fodder for the paparazzi, he commands Ferraro family businesses—both legitimate and illegitimate.
While their criminal activity is simply a rumor yet to be proven, no one knows the real truth. The Ferraros are a family of shadow riders capable of manipulating light and dark, an ability Stefano thought ran in his family alone—until now…
With little left to her name, Francesca Cappello has come to Chicago in hopes of a new life. She wasn’t expecting to attract the attention of a man with primal hunger in his eyes, driven to claim her as his to protect and to please. And if he discovers her secret, it could ruin her… read more

Reader Question – The book about the female attorney and the male mafia member…

By 5 Comments

Its reader question day!!! Tabathia is looking for this mafia romance (or is he out of the mafia?) 😉

She asks:

I need help finding an interracial mafia book. I read this book probably a year or two ago. It’s a BW/WM mafia book.

The BW is an attorney (I think) in the DA’s office and the WM is involved with the mafia. I think this may be part of a series involving brothers who are involved in the mafia through their father.

They meet because she is prosecuting their father for his crimes and he is testifying against his father. read more

Meghan March – Savage Trilogy Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

<—- ANTI-HERO ALERT!!! HE’S THE MAN YOU NEVER WANT TO MEET. And now, I’m absolutely titillated. 😉 The entire trilogy is already up for preorder with this one coming out in just a week, and then two more in the next two months. I’m in love with the covers, the book blurbs, and I have no doubt this trilogy will be a wild ride!
About book #1:

I do what I want and who I want. I don’t follow anyone’s rules—even my own.
I knew I shouldn’t touch her, but it didn’t stop me.
Didn’t stop me the second time either. Only made me want a third.
My lifestyle suits the savage I am, and she doesn’t.
But Temperance Ransom is my newest addiction, and I’m nowhere near ready to quit her yet.
I’ll have her my way, even if it means dragging her into the darkness.
Hopefully it doesn’t kill us both. read more
