 This was underwhelming for me. Mainly because I did not like the main characters at all. AT ALL. The sex was hot, at times, and the plot was good. Lucia was basically the trophy her family gave for losing the mafia war. I liked Lucia's sister, Isabella, until the end when she wimped up and got all "Oh, woe is me, I just can't take the violence anymore". Effie, Isabella's daughter, was adorable (and the drama over who her father's identity was interesting). The drama between the families was good, but sometimes confusing, to me. Now back to these main characters. Lucia and Salvatore were perfect for each other because they were both lacking the same body part.... a freaking SPINE!!! Salvatore was too busy kissing his dad's butt most of the story to be any type of man in my eyes. This greatly diminished the romance for me because he humiliated Lucia again and again at his father's behest and I had zero respect for him and his 'dominance' was just a joke to me. Lucia was just a pushover, so ehh.
