Mafia Lust: JJ & Lena's story. Standalone Age Gap Forbidden Romance (The Sovranos)

Product Information

Okay I get the H was older but the daddy / daughter insinuation was gross and he was doing thing to her while she slept- that was creepy and brought him down in my eyes.

J'ai beaucoup aimé ce livre mais la fin est NAZE sans saveurs, happy ending ok mais un épilogue de ce nom c'est trop demandé ? Steele has peeled back his layers in this one and gives us a complex and complicated character that you will love. And then Lena and JJ were acting like this three-way was the magical cure to the fact JJ and Isaac have never had a relationship. So why is every moment filled with an overwhelming urge to touch her body, claim her as mine, and have her scream my name on those perfect lips of hers? He also almost SA'd Lena when he found out she cheated because she owed him for sleeping with her dad.I mean it isn't like he was already on an upward trajectory in his life and wouldn't have bought the luxury he did even if he DIDN't have children. I love this trope so much but I just can’t with this book, the premise of the book is an interesting take on the 'ex-boyfriend's dad' trope. Also, this is noted as being a stand-alone but without having read any of the other books in the series I felt like I was missing a lot. Since this is the 9th book in the series, it is safe to say that the other characters I read about make cameos are from previous series.

The real kicker here though, is a cringeworthy pity (her words, not mine) threesome between the father, the son, and the girlfriend he stole from said son… what. But while JJ is the bridge between the Seven and the Sovrano’s Lena definitely uses unusual means to be a bridge between father and son…wowsers I mean that one particular scene well damn! There are reasons they got together in the first place, which are also the reasons why things are falling apart. We get a menage between Father, Son and the h; but rather than a sordid affair or even a finale where the h ends up with both, Steele manages to turn it into a beautiful, one-time farewell, a healing event where Isaac realizes and accepts that he and Lena were never right for each other, that his father truly cares for her and that she is perfect for him. He has had ZERO relationship with his son and suddenly has decided manipulating him would be the best plan.Another thing I hated, was that she told him he was a good father for providing his children FOR ALL THE COMFORT they could want. This after we've been told he pretty much had affairs (not on page but when he told his then wife to keep her lovers out of the house and to keep her life private like he did). I’m sure it was supposed to ease me into my role as a detective, pairing me with a ten-year veteran such as Craig Graham when I joined the unit six months ago. I tried really hard to get into this book but every time I relax and get over one hurdle that I wasn’t too crazy about then bam…. I loved how unapologetic he was about how he went after what he wanted even if that was his son’s girlfriend who is more than twenty years his junior He had to balance his needs with the consequences to his son as well as Lena.

If we’re going to do what nobody’s been able to do before, we need to take a different approach,” I mutter as we make our way across the street.The writing it’s self is over explanatory there are better ways to get the readers to know something than random unrelated info dumps. The whole thing felt like the book form of a really terrible porn video, which isn’t because of the taboo of the father/son situation, but because of the unrealistic back-and-forth between all the characters. You know I like it when you get sassy, Emilia,” he remarks, and I can only roll my eyes before shivering a little when a stiff breeze blows past, knowing that no matter what I say, it will never be enough. He hoots with laughter behind me when I turn on my heel and march to the back of a long but quick-moving line separated from pedestrians by a velvet rope. And overall there are just so many other books like this that do it better which I know sounds mean but there are only so many hours in a day to read.
