Publisher Description
Tommy worked hard to establish a life outside of his father's legacy. Son to the infamous Delucia family, he's the heir to a throne he doesn't want. As loyalties keep pulling him back in, he struggles to obtain a clean break. Becoming a new man is just out of arm's reach.
Naila is a sassy, headstrong entrepreneur with businesses in the Delucia territory. A chance meeting between the two has Tommy questioning everything about his life and what his future holds.
As circumstances keep putting them in each other's paths, the two can't deny the building chemistry between them. As passions ignite, so does the tension surrounding the Delucia family, catching them both in the crosshairs of an all-out war.
When the dust settles, there's only one question remaining: how deep are they willing to go?
Customer Reviews
Tesoro
The first in a three book series Tesoro spends a lot of time building both the world and the characters, giving us a clear indication of the good, the bad, and those who kind of merge in between. It’s a great storyline featuring Tommy the son of a Mafia leader and his new love interest Naila who he doesn’t want to put in danger by association but unbeknownst to them she’s already involved. It’s a jam packed story full of twists and turns, danger and desire.
The author has done a fantastic job of creating the characters and i absolutely loved the banter between the two main characters Tommy and Naila. Their relationship isn’t typical and the way they meet and begin to grow towards each other is full of flirting, fun and a little humour too. Tommy is reluctant to become part of the mafia and we get to see a playful side to him before he becomes entrenched. Naila is such a refreshing character as a female lead she’s strong and sassy, she breaks all the moulds of a ‘perfect woman’ and it’s clear that she’s special purely by the way the majority of the characters interact with her (bad guys aside), she takes no rubbish that’s for sure.
The sideline characters such as Bear and Cam pave the way for the second book in the series and it’s clear from the onset they are allies whereas characters like Bishop and even Luca are dubious and we have to keep reading to see how things turn out.
It’s told in multiple POV of the characters but they aren’t headlined to say whose POV it is, it kind of jumps between them. Usually I’d dislike this but it was easy to decipher which character’s POV it was and didn’t detract from the read.
