Dominic: a Dark Mafia Romance (Benedetti Brothers Book 2)

I liked the sound of this story and I loved the picture on the front of the book so I actually bought it for the full price - I just checked. Yes, I really did.The first half of the book is with Gia imprisoned and Dominic is meant to be training her to be meek and obedient. I am not sure that this part of the book was totally convincing unlike in The Found where the details of imprisonment sound very real. I also thought that he started doubting himself and liking her too soon for the story. However it was not tacky and took you along.The second part of the book was much better and the story and the characters became more interesting. In this part I found myself liking Dominic, which is helpful for me, and the story was convincing.I liked Gia all the time. She tried to resist but only enough to be believable so that she felt real and not just unbelievably stupid as so many women in these stories.The writing was in the first person and sounded like the gumshoe style of story telling (did you ever see Mike Hammer - Stacy Keach). Anyway I am not a fan of this type of writing but it did not spoil the story for me and I will go back and buy the first in this series.

What a second book of the series this was.I hated Dominic after the first book and could see how he could possible be redeemed.And true to form for the start of this book I continued to hate him with a passion. So did Gia!This is a dark dark mafia story. Great storyline with plenty twists and turns. Yup and by the end I did not hate Dominic.I can’t wait to read Sergio and am intrigued to find out how this will all end for the series.

This is the second book in the Benedetti family and is much darker than the first. The Hero Dominic is anything but and his life in the last seven years since the conclusion of the first book has led to him being a pretty horrific guy doing unthinkable things - not sure how I feel about that. Also not sure if he could be turned around but thankfully Ms Knight was able to do that fairly quickly.The romance between Dominic and Gia was not smooth sailing but bearing in mind how they met and the way Dominic treated her that was expected. But is was sweet and Dominic did redeem himself beautifully. You do need to read book 1 to understand how Dominic got to where he was in the beginning of this book.

I think I loved this book more than i did Salvatore’s! It was so much darker and grittier.My heart broke for Dominic with how much hate he had inside of him, when really I think deep down he just wanted to be loved and fit in.Gia was such a strong character, and with everything she went through I was just waiting for her to break but she never really did. She stayed strong and I love that in a leading lady!There were so many aspects to this book and I just loved it!!

This is quite dark in places - I like dark romance but not too dark. It has to be just right for me. This one was a little pushing the envelope in places for me personally but it’s a good read and Natasha is a good writer.

Loved this book. It was dark, intense and passionate. Dominic is portrayed as a bad person in Salvatore's book, but here you learn that he's a more complex character than that. An addictive read.

Phew!!! Certainly got our monies worth with Salvatore and Dominic! Amazingly good reads, loved them both, great characters in both books, bit sad they are over ☹️ Just a thought (silly I know) I just wished Dominic had had someone like Marco to protect him and be loyal to him, but really enjoyed it 😊

Oh I loved this story . Powerful emotions hate vengeance regret lust and love . Dominic and Gia s story had everything you expect in a mafia type story . Highly recommend this book .
