Desperate men do desperate things . . . Salvatore Romero is a dangerous man. If you’ve lived the life Sal has, rage is to be expected and maybe so is heart. After his father killed his mother in a jealous rage, Sal was left to raise his two younger brothers, becoming a parent long before he was ready. Desperate for money to support his family, Sal sought help from his old friend, Vincent Maggiano, the son of New Jersey’s top crime boss being groomed to take over his ailing father’s empire. Sal never planned to join the mob. He also never planned to fall for his brother's sweet and ultra conservative counselor, Adrianna Daniels. Aedry isn’t the type of girl Sal is usually drawn to. Her skirts are longer, her hair is tamer, and her heels aren’t clear. But he can’t deny the attraction he feels. And Salvatore’s dark, sexy, and dangerous persona is the exact opposite of the clean-cut business men who usually catch Aedry’s attention. Neither planned on a life of crime nor did they plan on love. But now, both are in too far.

When I received an email with an review request for ‘Salvatore’ by Cecy Robson and read the book description, I signed up as fast as I could. This book just sounded like a great read and I really wanted to get my hands on an ARC. So I was super excited when I got the email with the ARC, and started reading as fast as I could.

‘Salvatore’ is the third book by Cecy Robson I read and I must say it’s my absolute favorite so far. I loved ‘Salvatore’ from the moment I started reading until the very last page. I just loved everything about this read.

The two main characters Salvatore and Aedry couldn’t have been more different. Salvatore has been living a hard life for a long time. In order to save his brothers and to make sure they get the best possible life he has to do a job he hates and is more than dangerous. Working for a crime boss definitely isn’t easy and puts him at risk almost every day. Aedry is a hardworking ‘good’ girl, who tries to save kids that are going on the wrong path. Salvatore and Aedry shouldn’t work. But from the moment they met, there live changed forever.

I loved getting to know both Salvatore and Aedry. Their chemistry is definitely intense and flying of the pages. They are so different but instantly feel this attraction for each other. There romance was just amazing to read about, and I couldn’t stop reading. I found myself trying to read every single spare moment, just to find out what would happen to them. I loved how Salvatore was all hard and tough, only not when he was with Aedry.

Although this book is a romance, I also found there to be pretty thrilling suspense moments, especially near the end of the book. There was so much happening, and I just couldn’t imagine how everything was going to work out. I was rooting for these two characters from the very start and I just couldn’t get enough of them.

There is also a hint of a possible other story in this series with Aedry’s best friend, and I can’t wait to find out more about the books in this series. I definitely would like to get my hands on those too.

‘Salvatore’ was a great read, I definitely loved. If your looking for some hot romance this book is definitely for you. A great beginning to a new series if you ask me.
