Vittoria enters an arranged marriage to pay off her brother's debt to Angelo. He's been fascinated by her since he first saw her, though he worries she's too innocent for his life as a mafia boss. She just wants a normal marriage but becomes reconciled since she gets away from her brother.
It's a good story, a bit dark and steamy, but well-written and entertaining. ( )

Quickie Review (May Contain Spoilers)

Tempted by the Devil was such a BLAST of a book. Man now this is what I love this author for. Sometimes she can be a hit or miss...BUT when she hits it really packs a punch and I can definitely say that was the case with "Tempted by the Devil" This is a setup where our heroine is being abused and the hero comes in on his dark white horse and being a bit of a protector. He arranges a marriage with her abusive step brother and thus begins a deep and tender marriage between them. I adored how protective he is of her and so careful of her heart. He can be a really hard man, but he is just right with her, not pushing her too hard especially with all the abuse that she has suffered and giving her a place of peace and love which she hasn't ever had. The crime aspects is a bit brutal in this one, fair warning, but the actual romance is tender hearted and poignant in so many ways. Definitely a book to be a keeper for any shelf.

If you are a fan of mafia romance, then I can't recommend Michelle Heard enough! ( )
