A moment of passion leads to an unexpected union...
Melissa Harding has veered on the side of caution, always keeping her past locked up tight. Until one night
she decided that she'd let loose. Which came at a cost. Getting pregnant was shocking enough, but
marrying the head of the Irish Mafia was worse.
Melissa hopes that she can keep her darkest secrets hidden. But her new husband has other ideas.
Danny Gallagher never had plans on settling down. His family doesn't have a great track record when it
comes to marriages. That is until his new bride's secrets start to unravel, Danny realizes that he's finally met his match.
The darkness he has inside burns deep within her.
When enemies start to rise, Danny and Melissa find out just how perfectly matched they really are.
What happens when a traitor has plans to take Danny out?
Will the couple be able to find them before it's too late?
I did not realize this was book 2 in the series when I applied for it. That being said, you are not lost at all. Everything is perfectly laid out and very easy to follow.
Melissa or Lissa as she likes to be called is soooooo good! I love a true BA female lead. She lets her walls down to the sexy Danny one night and that is all it takes for him to be hooked. Little did Lissa know, that one night would end up changing her life forever. With walls built so high there was no way anyone was getting inside, not even Danny Gallagher, head of the Irish mob.
This is a cleverly written story. There is not long played out wait to find out Melissa is pregnant, it is right there within the first few chapters. There is no angst-filled wait to see if they can make it work, you get the gist right away. What you are not aware of is the power Melissa holds. She is a take-no-crap from any one type of girl. She will take you out or down within seconds, no matter who you are. The chemistry is there and you can feel the respect given by both leads. Danny sees Melissa's strengths and Melissa sees Danny's weaknesses and they balance each other out.
I love that this author gives these women in her books powerful roles and men who can accept those roles. I really enjoyed this story so much. There are triggers and some may not be able to deal with the secrets that come to the surface when Lissa, tells Danny the truth. Be warned! It is not a pretty picture that is painted but so perfectly written.
I am 100% vested in this series and can not wait for the next installment!
