Couldn’t finish it. I love Miles High Club and can’t believe this is from the same author. The plot is just ridiculous, it was one stupid thing after the other. Mafia? Ceo of Valentino? Too much. Olivia and Rico are both terrible, she doesn’t have a backbone or personality, he is just an asshole. Their chemistry is non existent.

The Italian- T.L. Swan
What better book to read while traveling in Italy? This was the perfect book for my mood as I traveled Rome, Venice, Tuscany, Florence, and the island of Capri. The scenery and people were beautiful, the culture was rich, and the men were.... This romance is a second chance romance with a possessive Enrico who charms his way right into sweet Olivia's heart. This book is filled with great angst between the leads. They must overcome lies, family secrets, and betrayal. The book is also full of plot twists and made for an interesting and unique story line. My biggest complaint about the book is the conflict resolution does seem to drag on a bit. These two are feisty, stubborn, and hardheaded and although I love the great angst this creates between the two, their fights felt a bit repetitive and the story line became a bit choppy as it went from one action packed scene, a plot twist, conflict between the characters, and back again. The story did hold my interest and I fell in love with Enrico and his bossy ways as well as Olivia and her stubborn stand against his unmoving beliefs.
This book is great for readers who love a second chance romance that is filled with plot twists, is action packed, and has great sexual tension between the main characters. The story is filled with places from Italy and is rich in culture, sprinkled in the beautiful language, and perfect for those who dream of a possessive alpha male to sweep you off your feet. If you are traveling in Italy and wanting a romance read this is also the perfect book to set the mood.
