•••••

REVIEW:MAFIA MAN’S VIRGIN WIFE by Sam Crescent is a contemporary, stand alone, erotic, Mafia romance novella focusing on thirty-five year old capo Enzo Amato, and twenty-three year old Adele Shanks.

Told from dual omniscient third person perspectives (Enzo and Adele) MAFIA MAN’S VIRGIN WIFE follows the arranged/forced marriage between our leading couple. Enzo Amato owes a debt to Hank Bianchi, a debt to be paid for by marrying illegitimate daughter, a woman who wants nothing to do with the lifestyle of the Mafia crime world. Enter Adele Shanks, the woman with whom Enzo will fall in love. Blackmailed into a marriage with a man she does not know, Adele struggles with what she knows, and what she will learn going forward. What ensues is the building relationship and marriage between Adele and Enzo, and the potential fall-out as the past is hoping for a second chance, a past that destroyed Adele, and the mother she loved.

The relationship between Adele and Enzo begins as an arrangement, a reluctant relationship in which Enzo is contracted to pay a debt, and Adele is the price of completion. Adele battles between head and heart, having witnessed the heart break of her mother, and the secrets of a life to which she want nothing to do. Falling for Enzo means betraying her mother but a ghost from the past wishes for Adele to forgive the sins. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate .

The secondary and supporting characters are interesting and troubled. We are introduced to Adele’s estranged father Hank Bianchi, his wife Isabella, as well as Adele’s former boss Bishop.

MAFIA MAN’S VIRGIN WIFE is a story of heart break, betrayal and grief. The premise is dramatic and captivating-the conflict is contained within the family unit. The romance is seductive and provocative; the characters are determined and broken.
