She's out of options...
With nowhere left to go, Carissa Elliott will do anything to escape a crime boss' obsession. But becoming the boss of a powerful cartel to save herself and her loved ones is more dangerous than she ever imagined. Carissa plans to fight like Hell to get what she wants—even if it means facing off against a man more threatening and irresistible than she can handle. Alec McLean has an agenda of his own. And Carissa is right at the top of it.
Now, it's up to this small-town girl to prove to everyone—even Alec—that she's as ruthless as any man. But can she really show them who's boss?
This was a wonderfully written novel about mobsters and a life of crime with a romantic twist to it.
It is a book full of serious life issues, trauma, heartache, heartbreak, love , lotsa of action and fun and full of humor. The ending is completely hilarious.
Carissa and the trinity are amazing. They gone through so much being stuck around different mob personalities in their life. But finally Carissa takes a stand not willing to put up with these violent men anymore and she becomes the one bad guys fear.
Alec oh man he yummy but such a giant jerk. Some chapters I want to shoot him lol. But he falls for her so head over heels and sometimes doesn't understand what to do with that.
I look forward to reading more from this lovely author. She is a gem being discovered.
