This had a good opening idea but just didn't hold my interest. Maybe I'll try again later.

Not bad, but not particularly memorable. ( )

not for me ( )

4.5 Stars!
I loved this book! Mob, good guys, bad guys, hot guys, girls who save themselves, and more! Its fast paced and I was sucked in from the start! I can't wait to get more of the series and see how this all plays out. It doesn't end in a cliffhanger per se, but its certainly OPEN! My full review will be on The Book Disciple ( )

I am a huge Mafia fan! This sounds as odd to hear, as it looks on the screen. But I truly love the stories of the family and Robin Hood aspect, but not so much of the violence and crime. But hey, that is a part of real life, so it should be a part of this story.

But let’s move on to the story shall we. Callie Sheridan is being forced into marring a man who truly is scum; purely to secure her family’s alliance with The Halloran. But when she actually meets Brendan Halloran, she knows she cannot marry this man. But when Brendan threatens her with rape, she takes matters into her own hands…literally.

The O’Malley family wants to secure a “business relationship” with the Sheridan’s, in order to have a better footing in the Boston underworld. So when Teague’s father orders him to marry Sheridan’s only daughter, he wanted to tell his father no! Oh heck no! But then he met her and saw her bruises and knew, he wanted to protect her. So he agrees to this deal with the devil.

But both Teague and Callie are hiding huge secrets that they try to guard with their lives. but then a war between the families breaks out and when the secrets comes to light will shock everyone…

This book was fast pace and kept me gripped and now I’m addicted…well that’s not really a shock is it! The writing was detailed and smooth. I found no plot holes or bumps and the characters were relatable and more importantly! REAL.

I give Marriage Contract 9 out of 10.
