Genre: Mafia romance, smutty romance, fiction
My summary: Valentine and Dominic meet after literally running into each other at the airport. Valentine is the half-sister of King, head of The Alliance, and Aspen. Dominic, the mob boss of Chicago, and Valentine have a whirlwind start of a relationship. And Dominic is determined to make Valentine his, by any means necessary.

My thoughts: This is the third book in The Alliance series and I have such mixed emotions about this one. I absolutely adored Valentine and you can’t help but feel sorry for her life events. I loved her feistiness but felt sad for her loneliness and insecurity. But, Dominic. Ugh. Where to start with Dominic? The controlling, devious, manipulative but sexy as hell and protective Dominic. Sigh. I’m not sure on this book, but Dominic is definitely my least favorite alpha male of the series. I have high hopes for Hans in the next book though.
