3.5/5

As soon as I heard that this book would be a forbidden romance between a priest with a mysterious past and the son of a mafia boss who is send to capture him, I knew I had to read it as soon as possible. And you know what? For the first time this month - unfortunately I was disappointed by other new releases - my excitement finally paid off, because even though it wasn't a five-star material for me, I still had a great time reading it for most of the book.


The beginning, while still engaging, was quite slow, but once the book reached a certain point, I couldn't stop reading. When the action finally picked up, I literally couldn't put my kindle down as things just kept getting worse and worse for our main characters - with a few quiet moments - but worse, and I had to know how it would all end.

I really liked the main characters, Vitari and Father Francis, I liked Francis' character a tad more, but in the end Vitari grow on one me too. It was honestly hard to not like Francis because he was just a good person with a heart of gold. I had to admit that I’m a fan of the way the author showed the reality of the mafia, and the ugly side of being in it. Vitari was obviously a part of it, so I was skeptical about him, but he showed through his actions that he was actually a good man trying to be the good guy among the terrible people who surrounded him since childhood, so as I said above, I ended up liking him. Also, the chemistry between our two heroes may not have been off the charts, but they had many very good, hot moments together.


  
    "Angel tore free, straddled Francis’s thighs, and whispered in his ear, “I’m going to fuckin’ ruin you, Father.”
  


I didn't know there would be a second and third part of this book when I started reading it. The ending really stressed me out because there wasn't that big of a cliffhanger at the end, but the main characters still have a long way to go to be together. That’s why I can’t wait to put my hands on the second book. I need it now, because I need to see them even a little bit happy together. 


If you are looking for a story with a a forbidden romance, touch him & die and "we can never do that again" moments, mafia son/ priest, opposite attracts and a romance book with a plot that actually keeps you in suspense, I highly recommend it.
