I read/finished this series a couple years ago but forgot to complete the review. So, I had to reread it in order to write it and fell in love all over again. It’s got intrigue, so much drama, family craziness. It was damn near perfect.

Zoe is sent to Italy to bring back her younger sister, Zahra (book 2). She’s going with her cousin, Shea (book 1) who is acting weird for unknown reasons and they’re trying to retrace Zahra’s location in Italy. Well, if you read the first 2 books, things got real when they ended back at the small pizza shop in Naples from book 1 and that’s when things get fun!

Alfonso is the muscle. He’s fine with that because it’s what he’s good at. He has a great relationship with his boss and “co-worker” and is always ready. What he’s not ready for is for a beautiful, black woman to come bursting through the door, his boss reaching immediately, an assassination attempt and an impromptu family reunion. But, based on circumstances, they need to spilt up and Zoe, who he is immediately attracted to, is his to watch over. And that means leaving Naples and heading to his home town of Positano.

We get to learn more of the dynamics between Alfonso and his family. We witness Zoe trying to follow full conversations in Italian. But, more importantly, we see 2 hard headed people come to grips that they just might be the right people for each other. Zoe is a big, black and beautiful woman, talented, highly opinionated and loves herself first. Alfonso is a big guy who knows how to fight, is uncertain there isn’t more to him than that and gets off on a bit of pain. Weirdly enough, they bring out the best in each other.

I especially enjoyed how the author described their body’s. These are not tiny people. They are big people with bellies and thighs and high sex drives. Their sexy sexy times were beautiful intimate and explicit. There’s nothing better than a person who is confident in their skin.
•
As I said, all of these books end in cliffhangers (so far), so I’m off to reread the next one.
4 out of 5 stars/Highly recommend
