Heart of a Monster by Shain Rose

4.0

Katie was raised in the world of the Italian Mob and when she loses her father, it’s the life she continues to lead. Katie used her body as bait to get men to spill their secrets and when those secrets put her in danger, the one person who wants nothing to do with her is the one to come and save her. Rome Antenelli is the enforcer and second hand man in the family. The monster in which the family relies on. He can’t afford distractions but when Katie is in danger, nothing can pull him away.

I’ve read only a few mafia stories but this one was so gripping I couldn’t put it down! Katie is a fierce and strong fmc who isn’t afraid to tell it like it is and does what she wants. Rome is a “monster” with a heart of gold. Their chemistry is tangible and undeniable. The plot is intriguing and captivating. I can’t wait to continue their story in book 2!!
