Synopsis:

The sexy and deeply romantic internationally bestselling novel that inspired the blockbuster movie.

Laura Biel and her boyfriend are on a dream vacation in beautiful Sicily. On the second day of their trip, her twenty-ninth birthday, she is kidnapped. Her kidnapper is none other than the head of a powerful Sicilian crime family, the incredibly handsome, young Don Massimo Torricelli, who is determined to possess her at all costs. Massimo has his reasons. During an earlier attempt on his life, a vision appeared before his eyes: a beautiful woman, identical to Laura. After surviving the attack, he vows that he will find the woman in his vision and make her his own. No matter what.

For 365 days, Massimo will keep Laura captive in his palatial estate and attempt to win her heart. If she doesn’t fall in love with him during this time, he will let her go. But if she tries to escape at any point, he will track her down and kill her entire family.

Soon Laura develops a fascination with her handsome and powerful captor. But as a precarious, risky relationship forms between them, forces outside their control threaten to tear them apart...

My Opinion:

Oh my gosh, this book was hot. I do mean absolutely hot. I want to say this was an amazing book. I know there are a bunch of people who would call me crazy for calling this book amazing. However, I'm looking at several details. The first of which and the main thing being that this is a translated book. I kept in mind that books being translated can get lost in translation a bit. Other countries do not build their sentences the same way as Americans.

So keeping that major thought in mind I do think that this book was amazing. It is a dark romance and no this may not be for everyone. However, a book doesn't need to be condemned because it wasn't your cup of tea. The people who read it and love it do not need to be condemned for their taste in books.

I enjoyed this book and I did read it obviously like everyone else after they saw the movie. I did notice several difference between the two. Did it make me like the Movie any less? No it didn't. Were there moments in the book that made me squirm? I would say so but not bad. There were a few moments that I would say might trigger some people.

All About Illuminae - Book Review

Star Rating: 5 out of 5 stars Synopsis: This morning, Kady thought breaking up with Ezra was the hardest thing she’d have to do. This afternoon, her planet was invaded. The year is 2575, and two rival mega corporations are at war over a planet that’s little more than an ice-covered speck at the edge of the universe. Too bad nobody thought to warn the people living on it. With enemy fire raining down on them, Kady and Ezra—who are barely even talking to each other—are forced to fight their way onto an evacuating fleet, with an enemy warship in hot pursuit. But their problems are just getting started. A deadly plague has broken out and is mutating, with terrifying results; the fleet's AI, which should be protecting them, may actually be their enemy; and nobody in charge will say what’s really going on. As Kady hacks into a tangled web of data to find the truth, it's clear only one person can help her bring it all to light: the ex-boyfriend she swore she'd never speak...

Ruthless Monarch

Ruthless Monarch: A Billionaire Enemies-to-Lovers Romance by Ava Harrison Kindle Unlimited Page: ... Published: April 4, 2021 Rating: 3 out of 5 stars Synopsis: From USA Today bestselling author Ava Harrison comes a gritty, twisted standalone romance. Matteo Amante. Dangerous. Deadly. And most of all, devastating. He’s the king of the city. Running the mafia and ruling the East Coast. He’s at war with his cousin, and I am the casualty. There is nothing Matteo won’t do to win. He’ll burn everything down to the ground, my hopes and dreams included. He’s no hero. He’s the handsome devil who will probably kill me in the end. Falling in love with the enemy can destroy me, especially when he is my husband . . .  My Opinion: This is a dark romance that involves the mafia. I would say that there are probably triggering themes. This book had my attention because this was around the time that I was heavily into watching 365 Days and that had me drawn into the mafia theme. This book was one t...
