When We Were Us

This is the third book in the Alpha Boyfriends series. In books 1 and 2 Anabel skirted around the fact that she had a tragic first love and at the end of About Last Night she wound up face to face with her past after a brief run in with Luca.
When We Were Us is time for Anabel and Luca’s story to be told. Luca is out for revenge because he thought that Anabel left him and immediately turned the mafia boss into the feds.
While my favorite book in the series was the first one, The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancée because of the humor and fun dialogue between all of the characters, I enjoyed it more than About Last Night. Luca is the right amount of Alpha Boyfriend and Anabel is no shrinking violet.
All in all, another solid book by JS Cooper

They were soulmates, but she was not part of his world. He was a Mafia Boss and she was a good girl. He saw her and had to have her. Something happens and she sees his dark side and realizes she can't be a part of it so she leaves him breaking both of their hearts. He watches her from afar and waits for the perfect moment to get his revenge, but someone beats him to it and kidnaps her. He comes to her rescue once again, but secrets threaten to keep them apart again. I really enjoyed reading this book and would definitely recommend it. It has some crazy plot twists.

I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this book.

This is the third book in this series following the three young ladies. We have watched as Charlotte and Max found love and then Matteo and Emily, so now in this mafia romance it will be a chance to see if Anabel and Luca can overcome their past and find a second chance at love. The story starts looking at how their love story started 8 years ago. A whirlwind of young love. They both thought fate had brought them together and it was a forever love. Their relationship then ended suddenly not long after they were together and without a lot of explanation leaving both of them broken-hearted. As the years passed there was so much pain and unresolved questions from the past. Until a chance meeting, or was it chance? The heat and fire that Luca and Anabel had from the moment they met has never stopped and no matter how hard they fight it, to pretend it is hate or anger it is there. It is pure passion. The action is just really getting started because everyone has a past that catches up with them and Luca’s and Anabel’s is about to catch up with them. Someone wants something from Luca and to get it they will take the one thing they know he cares about even if he doesn’t want it admit it. Will Anabel come to trust Luca? Will Luca be able to admit his feelings for Anabel and together they choose each other? This book was one of the best written in the series and it has great action and character development. It keeps you wanting to read to get all the way to the end to see what unexpected turn is going to happen next. While I could say so much more about what happened in the story you have to read to see the excitement for yourself. I can’t wait for another great book from J S Cooper.
