This is the 1st book I've read written by Kiara Morgan; I can’t wait to read more of her books.

This is the 1st book in the Vitale Family Series; it is a stand-alone book. The story is about Anna & Alessio; she is a mafia princess abused by her father, then he arranged a marriage for her to Alessio, another mafia family to merge the two families.

I received a free copy of this book via booksprout and I’m voluntarily leaving a review.

First book to be read by the author Kiara Morgan. I do not know why I waited so long to read this, but I am glad I finally read it today!! I absolutely love the herione Anna. Her maid told her she was stronger than she thought, and she proved it throughout the entire story. I loved Alessio and Anna relationship because the saw the intimacy on a emotional, and mental level. Great read!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Alessio and Anna
Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2022

Love reading romance stories, especially when it about Mafia Love. Who doesn't want to read about dangerous wicked Heroes, right? Great plot line, I love the whole forced/arranged marriage, innocent heroine, and age-gap themes. It also involves kidnapping (she taken by the enemy twice), abuse (kidnapper), mental health (caused by kidnapper and father, and people around father). However, I will say this is not a dark Mafia. The hero didn't really give those vibes. The hero, here, is more 👍. He doesn't mistreat Anna (except for the one time he choked her due being drugged), he lets be. He doesn't hold her hostage, mentally abuses her, or plays seduction games with her. Overall, likeable characters and can't wait to read about his brothers and her brothers too. I still have alot of unanswered questions that this book didn't answer. 3.5 ⭐.

Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2021
Anna and Alessio have an arranged marriage to forge an alliance between the Russians and Italians. We learn that Anna's life has been on of a gilded cage, here not having any freedoms under her father's reign. Alessio also appears distant, only having went through the marriage for political reasons. As the two of them get used to being married, more politics come into play that they must deal with between the mafia families. Despite being sheltered, Anna proves to be a strong character who is intuitive and fiercely protective of Alessio's daughter, Emma. She also reveals bits and details of her strong relationship with her brothers. Alessio also is shown to be kind, intelligent, and ruthless when it comes to protecting those he cares about. His brothers, Nico and Carter, also have interesting stories and are loyal to the family. The author also touches on issues such as abuse, trauma, and mental health. This was an enjoyable read, and I cannot wait for the next book.

Throughout Anna’s life, all she’s ever known is cruelty at her father’s hands, she’s had to learn the hard way what happens if she crosses him, she does everything in her power to please him, but it is never enough.

When Anna is forced into an arranged marriage with Alessio, she remembers her father’s words and vows to uphold her duty. Anna is fearful of Alessio and rightly so.

And then she meets Emma, his daughter, and they hit it off instantly, at first Alessio is concerned but can see his daughter has warmed to her and they are forming a bond.

Then unexpectedly Anna is pregnant, at first she’s at a loss, but comes to accept the life growing inside of her, Alessio can’t help but be happy at this turn of events. But her father has ominous plans for Anna and her child and will do anything to gain the upper hand in terms of power.

When Anna is kidnapped and hurt, Alessio does everything in his power to find his wife and daughter, and he does, this puts him on the defensive and will do anything and everything to keep his family safe.

Anna begins to feel comfortable in her life, in her role as wife and mother, at finally getting her freedom, and she isn’t hesitant in telling Alessio her thoughts on the matter. Alessio begins to understand Anna better when she reveals to him the trauma she endured living under father’s rule, he can’t help but be angry for her.

And when Anna goes into pre-term labour, once again they are on alert, for the danger hasn’t passed. Alessio, Anna and Emma settle into life with a new born, and it’s nice to see them be a family, have that normalcy and familiarity.

And then comes the news of her father’s death and the re-emergence of her brothers Nikolai and Maxim changing the dynamics for everyone and in doing so re-affirming there allegiance to one another.

This book has it all alpha dominant, controlling, possessive man, one woman who is learning to find her way, romance, murder, madness, mayhem, revenge, vengeance, violence, adrenaline seeking suspense, friendship, loyalty, twists, turns, truths and betrayals.

This story is told from different POV, it will take you on a wild ride, having you turning page after page. This book had me from beginning to end. This author definitely knows how to write and I’ll be coming back for more.

And those s*x scenes, the trust they built between themselves was bittersweet, when they finally admitted to each other there love for the other, the scenes had all of the feels especially there happily ever after, they are the best!

I have never read anything by this author but I am glad I chose this book. I loved the relationship and the story. Although some parts of the book had grammatical errors, the book still had me hooked wanting to read more. There were some areas that seemed a little rushed but overall a great story of the young virgin given to the mafia boss and falling in love.
