Now, I did enjoy the characters but I did have some issues with the actual way everything played out. Elena and Nico had mad chemistry! The way the author wrote the angst between them and the moments that almost pushed them together but didn’t, had me swiping on my Kindle super fast! At one point I thought I was going to go into shock behind the amount of angst and longing we had going on here. They made this story! I was a little hesitant about the whole future brother in law thing, but since it was arranged and they never were together I was able to continue reading. I ended up finishing it in one day! The story flowed and the writing kept me wanting to read more.Īs for the main characters, I enjoyed them. I picked this up and only planned to read the first chapter to see if it was something that I would like. I thought it was okay, but I can see why people like it. I finally broke down and decided to see what all the hype was about. I have been seeing this book and series over Goodreads for the past year. Having already escaped one scandal, however, she can hardly afford to be swept up in another.īesides, even if he were hers, everyone knows you don’t fall in love with a Made Man. Elena may be the Sweet Abelli on the outside, but she’s beginning to learn she has a taste for the darkness, for rough hands, cigarettes, and whiskey-colored eyes. Making her feel hotter than any future brother-in-law should.
She doesn’t like the man or anything he stands for, though that doesn’t stop her heart from pattering like rain against glass when he’s near, nor the shiver that ghosts down her spine at the sound of his voice.Īnd he’s always near. After his and Elena’s first encounter ends with an accidental glare on her part, she realizes he’s just as rude as he is handsome. His reputation stretches far and wide and is darker than his black suits and ties. A Made Man, a boss, a cheat-even measured against mafia standards. In the murky waters of New York’s underworld, Elena’s sister is arranged to marry Nicolas Russo. They say first impressions are everything. Now, all she can see in the mirror’s reflection is blood staining her hands like crimson paint. She’s the favored daughter, the perfect mafia principessa.
Nicknamed Sweet Abelli for her docile nature, Elena smiles on cue and has a charming response for everything. She’s a romantic at heart, living in the most unromantic of worlds.
