Publisher's Summary:
The first book in a seductive new series from number-one Amazon best-selling author Scott Hildreth.
Tripp
Once, I took down terrorists on the front lines as a marine.
Now I'm in the business of bad.
I've sold guns to people others might not approve of.
I've eliminated the criminals, the lowlifes, and the thugs who've tread on my turf.
And I've looked the Sicilian Mafia boss in the eye and told him to f--k off.
No one tells me no - unless it's their last word.
I don't just act the part of bad. I live it.
Then she stumbles into my life. I try to stay away from her. Try focusing on moving my merchandise. But one smile from Terra is like a shot to the heart.
She's mine now. And no one threatens what's mine.
Terra
I've seen a lot of terrible things in my life.
I grew up around lies and deception, and I ran away from all of them.
Until I met him.
I knew he was corrupt. I knew he was dangerous.
I should have stayed away, but my attraction to him, my need for him, overrode my logic.
Now I love him.
If he finds out who I am, we're done, and I'll be nothing.
I never wanted to be the Mafia princess they try to make me, but mia familia has other plans. And what mia familia wants...it gets.
Only Michael Tripp can save me.
Book one of the Mafia Made series.
Members Reviews:
TOO SWEET FOR A MAFIA STORY
I'm on the fence about returning this one. I think a Mafia story should be dark(ish), gritty, suspenseful, action packed, and of course big bad delicious alpha males. This book starts out this way but very quickly turns way too sweet.
Example: Michael Tripp the alpha male only has sex with a woman that is relationship material (no man whoring for him) and then he waits 30 days just to be sure. REALLY!! He has morals and a good nature but he also has an illegal gun running business, hum. IMO his conflict with the Mafia and actions taken are weak. I will mention his love interest is Terra, the Mafia boss' daughter.
This series is a continuation of Michael and Terra's story. So there is a 'to be continued' at the end.
I think this would be a good book for people who lean more towards sweet and sassy than dark and gritty.
Jeremy York and Elizabeth Hart were a big reason why I purchased this book without any previous reviews. They gave a great performance.
Is it worth your credit? You will need to decide.
Cliffhanger
I did like the book but wish some issues were not dragged out so long. Should of guessed it would have been a cliffhanger when I saw book # 1. Looking forward to the second one to find out what happens with main characters and secondary ones.
Great narrators
Kim B
good
Just another great book from this author. I am so on the edge and already downloaded the next book.
Awesom hero, TERRIBLE heroine!!
I wanted to love this book but sadly I didn't. in fact the heroine made this book painful. She's spineless and a liar. She sticks her head in the sand and then acts indignant. I loved Tripp. He was a great character!! But why does he have to love such a snot like Terra?!?! and then the cliff hanger. I just don't know of I can read the second. Maybe if Terra gets her shit together.
SOB, SOB, SOB... AS I TRIED TO FORGIVE HER BUT NO
Who knows why some books are loved by many and yet disliked by a few... and I know this book is going to be one of those.
