ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 10, 2024

Set within the Mazzone Mafia world. This is Fiero Maltese’s story.

The moment I lay eyes on Valentina Ferraro, I know I have to have her.

There’s just one teeny problem—her husband.

So, I do what any red-blooded, possessed made man would do and I proposition him.

Five million dollars for one weekend with his beautiful young wife.

He agrees, like I knew he would, because he needs the money and he wants his secrets kept hidden from Don D’Onofrio.

Valentina is livid, but I like my women stubborn and fiery and the more she resists, the more I crave her.

One taste of those lush lips is all it takes to seal my fate.

I’m not giving her back.

I don’t care about the existing bad blood between New York and Florida or how this will start a war.

Men have gone into battle for less.

Valentina is the first woman I have wanted to keep, and no other man is ever touching her again.

She is going nowhere, consequences be damned.

I am taking what’s mine.

REVIEW: TAKING WHAT’S MINE by Siobhan is a stand alone, contemporary, adult , dark, Mafia romance story line set in the author’s Mazzone Mafia World with characters from The Accardi Twins Duet, and Vengeance of a Mafia Queen. This is forty-three year old Don Fiero Maltese, and twenty-four year old, Valentina Ferraro’s story line.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there WILL BE triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Valentina and Fiero) TAKING WHAT’S MINE follows the forbidden relationship between our story line couple. Florida Don Fiero Maltese wanted to claim Valentina Ferraro the moment they met but Valentina was married to an abusive man, so Fiero made Dominic Ferraro an offer he could not refuse-three days, five million dollars, and the company of our story line heroine. Believing her life would be forfeit, from the frying pan into the proverbial fire, Valentina made plans to run only to realize that life with Don Fiero Maltese is the life she has always wanted. Refusing to return Valentina to her husband, Fiero makes plans to take down the man who abused his wife. What ensues is the rapidly building romance and relationship between our story line couple, and the fall-out as the sins of the father are passed down to the son.

The world building reveals the horrific details and abuse suffered by our story line heroine: the circumstances surrounding her arranged marriage to Dominic Ferraro, and the strength of a woman determined to escape at all costs.

The relationship between Fiero and Valentina is one of immediate attraction but Valentina is married to another man, and Fiero is determined to claim the woman with whom he will fall in love. Taking action and vengeance for our story line heroine Fiero finds himself making plans to avenge our story line heroine. The $ex scenes are aggressive and provocative.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including Massimo and Caterina (Vengeance of a Mafia Queen), Caleb Accardi , Bennett Mazzone; Fiero’s sibling Sofia, Tullia, Zumo and Rico, as well as Valentina’s husband Dominic and his son Cesco.

TAKING WHAT’S MINE is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance,power and control, cruelty and abuse, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is dark, dramatic and heartbreaking; the romance is seductive; the characters are desperate, sassy, and determined.

Heed the triggers warnings…
