button synopsis

Being born into slavery, I never thought my owner, my very mother, would sell me. And she didn’t.
Until Matteo.
I was tormented, struggling to come to terms with my new life then he narrowed it down to two things.
Pleasure. Pain.
The man confused me at every turn with his unexpected and unattainable desires.
If only he’d speak to me.
If only he’d tell me how to avoid upsetting him.
If only I could please him.
**Disclaimer: This is a DARK erotic Italian Mafia story. There are twisted behaviors in this book not everyone will be able to handle. Explicit, violent, and sexual scenes are involved. Not for the wary of heart.**

So I finished this book a few days ago and still have no idea how to write this review. I want to say i loved the book because honestly I did but not for most the reasons I love dark books. This one I have to say was a bit darker than what I am use to (which says a lot)

I didn't really find anything I didnt like about it but saying that makes it seem like I'm okay with having a female as a slave and all the things that went on in this book. But that is not what I am trying to say. Things like what happened in this book happen in our world right before our eyes and people dont see it or are just to blind to care.

What I did love i guess you could say is how it is written. everything in this book flowed yes at times I thought that Gia was naive but when you are born in basically a brothel and raised the way she was then what Matteo did to her she would consider acceptable.

Matteo he is not your every day Hero or Alpha male you fall in love with. But what choice did he have? Hes part of the Italian Mafia and when raised the way his father raised him he though what he was doing was right. Gia captured him from the first time he saw her. He wanted her he got her. But being Italian and in the Mafia there are certain things that are required of him. His father wanted him to marry and produce an Heir.

In the beginning that was fine and dandy until it was found out that Mia was part of a family that was against the Rossi's. That is like dirty blood.

The content of this book is not pretty. Some of it was a little hard to read through due to the graphics but at the same time (I do not wish an person to live in these conditions) I have never been through this nor have known anyone to go through anything like this so it is easier for me to read.

In all honesty I can see myself reading more of Rachael's book in the future. She pulls you in right from the beginning and doesnt let go.
button excerpt

A shiver ran through me. I was chained up in his basement. I’d never been restrained in such a way before. Madam never resorted to such means since she knew I never would’ve run. I had no desire to live free of enslavement. It was all I knew and all I wanted. However, feeling the cool breeze in the room and the even colder restraints on my skin made me wonder if maybe I had thought wrong all along. “I can see from the look on your face that you’ve never been locked up before, and I see that’s where Madam went wrong with you. No, you didn’t want to escape, but you don’t know how to behave. No, you don’t truly know the extent to which a punishment can go. Don’t worry, that is going to change starting now. This will throw a wrench in my initial plans for you, but I refuse to let you go now. You are mine and will be forever, so get used to the idea.” Matteo leaned against the wall in front of me, sliding his hands into his pockets as if we were carrying on a completely normal conversation. He appeared entirely at ease while I struggled with all the new emotions flooding me. After a moment of staring at me, he pushed off the wall and stood close enough I could feel his body heat. He reached down to pull his erection from his dress slacks. Sliding his hand over it slowly, he dragged the tip over my mouth. “Suck it. Get me off and I’ll leave you alone for the remainder of the night. Fail to do so and I will start your punishment now,” he said as he shoved the hot, hard, musky flesh into my mouth. I wanted to cry out that I thought the lashings from the belt had been my punishment. Instead, I sucked him down my throat and bobbed my head along his length the way he’d shown me he liked it done. The longer I sucked, the more my lips became numb and the more I realized that I really had no idea what being a slave was like. Finally, he groaned and his release filled my mouth and throat before he pulled back. As he tucked himself into his pants again he yanked my hair so I was forced to look him in the eye. “Welcome to the Italian Mafia way of life, bella.”

button About the author

Mother by day. Writer by night. I spend a majority of my day with my children and reading while my nights are filled with the sound of the keyboard as I work on my next work.
I have written in nearly every LBGT category as well as the traditional erotic romance category.
I love to try new things and learn from every piece of work I write. I'll write just about anything once to learn from it. I've even ventured out of my normal erotica genre into Monster Erotica. Doubt you'll find me writing anything not erotic as you can barely get me to even read something out of that category, but then again, you never know what I might try next.
Never stop learning. Try everything at least once.
