Gangsters and Dolls Book 2
From USA Today bestselling author, Khardine Gray, comes a smoking hot Mafia romance with a drool-worthy, possessive bad boy you’ll wish was yours…
Dante
Everyone knows who I am: Dante Giordano, capo to the new Chicago Mafia boss and member of the infamous Four.
Ruthless and bad to the bone. That’s me.
Don’t be fooled by my good looks and charm.
I’m a dangerous man and I get what I want.
Women, money, power. It all comes easy to me.
All of it… except her…
20% Angel, 80% devil…
The night Maria stormed back into my life, she reminded me I never had her.
Killing me softly with that body made for sin and her beautiful eyes, everything about her was temptation.
One taste and I wanted more. So much more.
The problem was, she knows I’m bad news and she’s already running from trouble.
Her ex-con ex wants her dead.
I don’t care who he is, he doesn’t know who he’s messing with.
Nothing’s going to stop me from protecting her.
I get what I want. And I want her to be mine.
Maria
I was the girl who had to pick the worst bad guy, and I never learned my lesson.
I witnessed my abusive ex murder a man in cold blood, and he knows I’m the one who told the cops it was him.
When he gets mysteriously cleared of all charges I know I'm as good as dead.
I’m fleeing for life and I have to protect my son.
It’s not a good idea to run from one bad guy to another.
Yet that’s exactly what I’m doing.
Being with Dante is exactly that.
Tall, dark and sinfully gorgeous.
That’s him.
The spark that sizzles between us draws me in.
His touch ignites something deep inside me I should deny.
He’s a mistake, yet everything I need…
The problem was, I know he’s bad news, but I also have a secret.
One that could make him turn from me.
I never meant for any of this to happen.

My Review:
The drama and suspense of this story reeled me in from the very first words and kept me on the edge of my seat for the duration. I loved Dante’s determination to find his sister’s killer and bring them to justice. This was just one of the examples in this story of how much family meant to him. I also really liked watching the comradery between him and his “brothers in arms” in action. Maria was a very problematic character for me. I admired her fierce mama bear attitude when it came to caring for and protecting her son, but I didn’t like the way she treated Dante. I thought most of the time she behaved selfishly and was woefully naïve. I applaud Dante’s scorched earth solution to expose his sister’s killer, I just wish we could have seen a bit more of the fallout from it. After the little teaser in the ending of this, I’m more excited than ever to read the next book in the series. I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author through Bad Boy Update.
