Quick Summary: A scandalous liaison romance

My Review: A Scandal in the Headlines by Caitlin Crews is associated with Sicily's Corretti Dynasty. It is book 7 in the series.

About the Book: Sizzling attraction brought Alessandro and Elena together in a forbidden dance. The fact that she was engaged to another man - a man who just so happened to be his bitter rival - did not deter Alessandro in the slightest. Everything changed when she stowed away on his yacht and committed to spending 40 days on his private island.

My Final Say: This book had a boatload of sizzle. It was present from the beginning and remained all the way until the end. Alessandro and Elena's chemistry was off the hook. Truly! The overall story itself was just okay. Still, I would recommend this book. Perhaps, I might have benefited from reading the other stories first.

Rating: 3.5/5

The perfect title. I read [b:A Hunger for the Forbidden|19213029|A Hunger for the Forbidden (Sicily's Corretti Dynasty, #8)|Maisey Yates|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1408936067s/19213029.jpg|43193930] first, then [b:A Legacy of Secrets|16160131|A Legacy of Secrets (Sicily's Corretti Dynasty, #1)|Carol Marinelli|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1359402881s/16160131.jpg|22001198], and then 'A Scandal in the Headlines. Yup, the order of my reading is muddled-up, but I felt that these three books relate to each other nicely.

I am not planning on reading any other books in the series anytime soon, maybe later.

Elena and Alessandro are perfect. And I just loved to hate Niccolo Falco. Even after being the eldest, Alessandro is lovable, usually in M&B world, the eldest are the most ruthless. Of course an M&B has a happy ever after, but still it was interesting to read how they reached it, as she wasn't his from the beginning.

This is well-written and enjoyable. It's a little too thin for me. I'd have liked more backstory and character depth. The passion sizzles, though, and I liked the fear that love at first sight engenders in the leads.
