5 Smooches
Synopsis
Cursed, numb, rejected, scorned, wicked, sinister, dark, twisted…my name is Tex Campisi and this is my legacy. I killed my father in cold blood and lost my soul right along with him.
I crave war more than peace, and I’m about to take my place in history as the youngest Capo dei Capi in the Cosa Nostra…that is until someone stops me, saves me from myself.
But the only person able to do that…is my best friends sister, Mo Abandanato, and she just ripped my heart out and asked me to hold it in my hands while she put bullets through it.
Im cursed so I did it.
I’m numb so I held it.
I’m wicked so I liked it.
I used the pain Mo caused as a catalyst to turn into my biggest nightmare–the five families greatest enemy. It’s my turn to take a stand, knowing full well I’m going to lose my mind to the madness that is the American Mafia. I’ve always been told Blood is thicker than life. I wish I would have listened. Because regardless of who you love? You will betray. You will kill.
Blood Always Wins.
The only way out is death…yours.
Welcome to the Dark Side of the Family.
Review
“Welcome to the mafia, blood in, well isn’t that just shitty, there is no freaking out.”
The drama, the feels, the action! This book was everything I expected it to be and so much more! I have read and loved the first three books in the Eagle Elite series and was worried that Tex and Mo’s story would not hold up to some of the others! I should have known that I had nothing to worry about! Rachel has never let me down and each story only ever seems to get better and better.
“Thought you loved her.” “I do. But she doesn’t feel the same way about me.”
I knew going in that Tex and Mo’s story would be emotional. You know that Tex loves Mo with all his being but how does Mo feel can she love him back with the same force? On top of all that the family drama that comes from these two, esp Tex is out of this world. I mean so many plot twist I could not stop reading, I just needed to know what in the world would happen next.
“I was owned by him.”
I do not want to go into the plot for fear of giving anything away, but let me tell you that if you are looking for action, love, betrayal and overall mafia bad-assness wrapped up in a new adult romance than you definitely need to read this book! I will tell you that by the time you get to the end of this story you are going to be desperately looking for someone else who has read it because you WILL NEED TO TALK!!!
“Getting shot hurts. The End.”
The thing about Rachel’s writing is that even in the most dire situations she knows just when to include a little humor or steam. She never overdoes it but always has enough to help move the story along and keep you interested. I cannot say enough how much I adore her writing and cannot wait for the chance to read more by her.
