About this item

From USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Michelle Heard comes a new STANDALONE, full-length MAFIA ROMANCE novel.

Poverty is an understatement when it comes to describing my circumstances. My mother is a lost cause I can't get rid of, and I work my fingers to the bone just trying to keep my head above water.

To ease the stress bearing down on my shoulders, I like to dance. Working as a janitor at a ballet company makes it easy for me to steal thirty minutes at night when the place is empty.

Or so I thought. Just my luck that the dangerously handsome owner catches me red-handed. He thinks I'm a hardworking ballerina, and I don't bother correcting him... because, you know, I'd like to keep my job.

Dario La Rosa has every girl at the company swooning, hoping she'll be the one to end his bachelor status. Me? I just want to keep my secret and try to avoid the man at all costs.
But then my mother's sins burst through my dilapidated front door, and my life takes a turn for the worse.

Turns out Dario isn't who I thought he was, and the man has the power to not only change my entire life, but to keep me from losing it.

Even though I'm drawn to the darkness coming off him waves, I'm not sure whether I should run or stay.

What would you do?

“In that moment when he kılləd the men holding me captive, I fell in love with him all over again.”

I think this is one of the most lighthearted stories I've read by Michelle Heard.

Dario La Rosa is not only one of the heads of the Cosa Nostra. He is also a lover of arts who acquired a ballet company simply because of his passion for it, and one night after rehearsal, he finds himself enthralled by a dancer he's never seen before. Little did he know that this woman was not a part of his company and would flip his world upside down. Eden is a girl from the wrong side of town, who's been to hell and back and finds a moment of reprieve dancing by herself in one of the studios where she works as a janitor. The last thing on her mind was that she would find the love and acceptance she's been craving all her life in the arms of a man who watched her dancing from the shadows.

I love the way Eden was portrayed. Her strength and the way she'd do anything to survive, even when she found herself in the shıttıəst of situations, were remarkable. I enjoyed the way her relationships with Tyrone and Mandy came across and the huge contrast presented between these two parental figures. I also quite enjoyed Eden's stubbornness and how she was not willing to give up her independence and be a stay-at-home wife even though Dario insisted on giving her everything she could ever need and more.

Now, even though I loved Dario and Eden's story, I think we can all agree that the real love story here was between Dario and Bella. ???????? All jokes aside, I really enjoyed reading this book, and I can't wait to see what the hell is going on with Damiano.

Sweeter read vs the rest of the series

Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2024

Dario has been my comedic relief this entire series and getting to read how sweet and loving he is just makes him that much more special. Dario is a lover, not a fighter so it makes sense when he gets with a dancer, I mean a janitor, I mean waitress? Eden is like a modern-day Cinderella but like more bad @ss and I'm here for it. Compared to the other books in the series it's a faster-paced book but filled with smut and sweetness with a hint of darkness. It's just right to me and I can't wait to read Damianos book because there is a storm brewing.

I have been so excited for Dario's story! Loved him in Haunted by a Shadow and I'm so happy he got his HEA. This book had everything, banter, romance , suspense, and humor. Just saying chapter 8 is definitely my favorite chapter!

Eden Taylor has looked after herself since the day she was born. I'm so happy ahe had someone like Tyrone to look out for her. She's strong independence and hard working. Her job as a janitor at the ballet house gives her access to the auditorium during afterhours, where she can dance her heart out and relieve the stress she's under. Until one night the owner of the ballet house sees her and now she must be extra careful not to get caught.

Dario La Rosa might be one of the Cosa Nostra's but his heart has always been in the arts. He not only owns the ballet, but also the opera house. Dario is in search of a real connection and loves. He finds this connection in the mysterious girl that's dancing (without permission) on his stage. Dario will stop at nothing to make Eden his.

These two were absolutely adorable! The way Dario persued Eden without pushing her, but convince her that thei financial status means nothing to him. Dario is literally ready to lay the world at Eden's feet.

The brotherly relationship between the 5 Cosa Nostras is so heartwarming! The banter they have, but will literally drop everything to help each other was beautiful! I'm very excited for Damiano's story! As the head of the Cosa Nostra I can't wait to see what kind of girl brings him to his knees.

Perfection!

Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2024

What a perfect addition to this incredible series! I love Mafia stories and this one ticked all my boxes! It has murder, mayhem, lust and love all rolled up into one great package! Eden is a young woman who has had a very hard life, yet she continually perseveres to make things better for her. She works hard, and at one of her many jobs, she meets Dario. He’s handsome, kind and a bit mysterious. But when he sees her dance, he is instantly enamored with her and wants to make her his. They have incredible chemistry and perfectly mesh together. But what will she think when she finds out who he truly is? When outside forces threaten and harm Eden, Dario will do anything to protect her and hurt those who dare to touch what is his. These two made me laugh and made me cry. While I know this is a standalone I highly recommend that you read the other stories in this series to get a better understanding of the characters. This author continually proves to me why I love her stories, as she always makes me fall in love with the characters, as she did again with Dario and Eden. Brilliant!

Dario and Eden

Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2024

Michelle Heard does it again! I really liked this Cinderella story with Eden and Dario!

Eden was definitely a strong and passionate FMC. You can definitely tell by the way she wants to pay her own way, working multiple jobs. Dario was a huge teddy bear, with a posessive side. I loved seeing him be tender with Eden and then take charge later in the book

Their story was definitely one that kept me on the edge of my seat! There were some twists and turns I was not expecting!

I loved how this leads right into the next book in the series! They have all come together so well and I can't wait for the next one!
