What a love story
I didn't imagine this book could catch me so much in the way it did!! I love it, I wanted more of them, but yeah
M**A
love ❤️❤️
Oddly enough this book was the one I least looked forward to. While I hadn’t ever read this one, I did get a taste of the kidnapping in Fragile Longing, so I had an idea of what would happen toward the end but not how we get there. I was crazy because Remo and Serafina are everything!! Why is it that Cora can not create a couple that doesn’t become a favourite?! I can’t choose anymore! I think I didn’t want this book to happen because Remo is just so great being the villain, even though we do know he has a heart. He’s great single and I almost wanted to let that remain. On the other hand, I now see how great he is at the relationship thing.I said this about the previous book, but what I like about Remo (and his family) are that they are progressive and down to earth. I love Luca’s clan, but they really are old school and the women follow such strict rules. I’m liking how free-ing the Camorra men are. Remo kidnaps Fina, but ultimately sets her free. It’s the classic story of the villain getting the heart, and it’s great. Despite his actions, I loved him and I loved how he never hurt her, even when he planned on it.I wasn’t 100% loving Fina. She did the entire first half willingly yet still said she hated him, while the next second denying those claims to herself. Which is it? She thought he sent her away, but where in that, did it seem like that? If he never did what he did, she would hate him for not doing it at all. What’s a man supposed to do with that!? Then she only went back when he was there, so I wonder, would she at all? She didn’t even try to make connection with him, to gauge his reaction on the news. Overall, I only enjoyed Serafina about 50% of the time.Other than her, I loved everything else about this book, including the well deserved cameo of Matteo and Romero, and all the snippets of Leona and Kiera.Gah these books keep getting better!

Well I am extremely suspicious to talk about this book since the couple is my favorite of the entire series. Remo and Serafina are so WOW that I think it will be difficult to get into words how much I love them and the book too.I'll start by talking about my favorite character from Cora's books: Serafina Falcone. Since the beginning of the book she has shown herself to be a very strong character, who would not bow her head to the enemy and who would fight to the end for her honor, and throughout the reading, I realized that she is exactly like that, so much so that she can leave the dreaded capo of the Camorra on his knees. The ferocity with which she protects those she loves inspires me a lot and makes me love her even more, the character was well developed from the beginning to the end of the book and there were some scenes that I just wanted to scream WOW THATS MY GIRL ANGELNow talking about the most cruel ,twisted and brutal man in the West, Remo Falcone. Since his first mention in bound by love, I have been intrigued by the character, how he and his brothers at such a young age managed to seize power, rebuild a mafia that was destroyed and prosper to make it a great threat to rival mafias,Remo succeeded and became one of the most feared Capos and I admire him very much for that. I have to admit that in twisted loyalties I didn't know if I would really like the capo, especially because I didn't see his point of view and thoughts about the facts, but since Twisted Emotions he totally won me over and became my favorite main character. A similarity that I noticed from the beginning between Remo and Serafina was their unconditional love for their families, always seeking to protect them, they would walk on fire for those they love, in the case of Remo , literally. I am always thrilled to think that he so young with the support of Nino, created his brothers, being a father figure that he did not have, it is very clear the importance that his family has for him, in all the books we have scenes that prove this.Well, the relationship between Remo and serafina starts in a very troubled way lol but that made the book very exciting , which I liked. I think they are one of the couples with the best development written by Cora , their chemistry since the beginning caught me, the fine line between hate and love and their love demonstrations at the end of the book made me completely obsessed with the couple.* spoiler moment *: The climax of the book with Serafina having the twins, who are the most beautiful thing in the world, saving Remo and them going back to Las Vegas, is absolutely perfect, I never get tired of rereading those scenes and crying every time !Anyway, this was an incredible read, I loved to follow the journey of these characters, to see more about the others characters I love so much like Kiara (in this book we realize even more the beautiful relationship that she has built with the falcone family) and the others falcone brothers . I am VERY excited for the children's book, I fell in love with nevio and greta from the beginning and I can't wait to see them living their own stories, poor Remo that will suffer with these two lolI love the couple so much that I would give anything for more of their scenes, a book or a short story at least 🙏🏼 but I am already happy that we will see more of them in sins of the fathers. I will and this review with one of my favorite scenes from this incredible book!Remo“This woman had my cruel heart. She’d always have it.I was cruel.I was beyond redemption, but I didn’t care as long as Serafina ... as long as Nevio and Greta saw something redeeming when they looked at me.”

Fav book !
RemoFina my favorite couple of all time. I will never get tired of rereading this book, even if it hurts me.Remo is the best CR mc. A heartless villain from others' persepctive but when you get to know him, he's a man who would die and sacrifice everything for his family.His loyalty and love for his family is what I love the most about him. He would never betray them and would kill anyone who dares to hurt them.Serafian is my girl, she was always so brave and always fought back. She was sheltered all her life but she still had the courage to fight and stand up against Remo. I love her sm. She's also an amazing mother for what she did for her kids.This book is a rollercoaster and I always love rereading it. They just make me feel so much and it's definitely my fav book of this author. ❤️

Una coppia che non si dimentica
Probabilmento il mio libro preferito della serie. Remo e Serafina sono qualcosa di diverso e di accattivante. Non vedo l'ora di leggere lo spin off: Sins of Our Father
