bitchie's review
Ok, I read some spoilers, but I was going to try to keep going. But then when I found out that Dante was LITERALLY a Christian Grey for the M/M world, complete with the abuse and the money, and having to beat the guys he fucks down before he fucks them, pushing the guy away because he's too "pure" and innocent, not to mention said innocent *VIRGIN* guy barely even blinking, but begging him to let him just try and see if he could take it, and yeah, that was it. I'm glad I figured tis out before I took the train any further into crazy town, because from what I can see, it gets MUCH worse!
Guess I'll have to find myself another gangster/criminal type to read, this just isn't for me. Not rating because I quit before the halfway point, but I'm pretty sure if would have been a 1 star if I'd made it through.

Cute and a bit silly, as most of the series is. It's interesting seeing all of this stuff with Nana and how the family comes together since I read the spin-off series first. Well, parts of it. Anyway. Was cute.

I loved this book it was so good. I'm so glad that Charlie got his own story I loved him and Dante was just so perfect for him and was so sweet. I loved Dante's Nana she was too funny and you did not mess with her. I also fell in love with Christopher I'm so glad he's getting his own story.I just wanted to hug him. I have to say I love the whole mobster that falls in love. So sorry the book ended and so ready for the next book already ;-)

I absolutely loved Dante and Charlie's story. Christopher Robin and Nana were the perfect sidekicks for their story. From Hello Kitty lock picks to zombie lap dogs, I was hooked!

This book had a way, way over the top Days of Our Lives-esque melodramatic vibe to it, but between the gooey insta-love that this author seems to favour and the curiously PG-rated BDSM scenes, the whole thing fell kinda flat for me.

I love, love, LOVE this book!
Warning bits:
- The ZOMBIE tag is not a mistake. There is actually a zombie dog, who is not a zombie, but pretty damn close, the way it acts.
- BDSM is very demure, mostly it's just the talk, but there is some spanking, some bondage and some ass whipping present in a couple of (short) scenes. Mostly tho, it's the talk.
Meh bits:
- It's imperfect, it drags at times, it's unrealistic, it's saccharine and dorky...
Good bits:
...BUT it's also very tender-sweet and funny and adorable and impossible to put down.
~'~'~'~
The break-in in the beginning is epic. The break out in the middle is very close to epic. The handcuffs! OMG, the handcuffs! And Peaches? Be afraid, be very very afraid, it's a zombie affenpinscher ape dog with an under bite!
And, of course, Dante!!! Dear man, you're so much fun! Even when you break hearts.
----------------
I am planning on starting Christopher's story soon. I hope he finds himself a big mean mafia machine. I hope they find the Sandwich Man and they feed him Peaches's gluten-infused poop (have to read the book, peeps!) ;)
