Mick Sinatra #17
Two the Hard Way
Mick Sinatra, the boss of all bosses, may not be running the day to day of his syndicate, but that doesn’t mean he is no longer in charge. He is still Mick the Tick. He is still the gold standard. He is still the summit of the mountain every wannabe wants to climb up and knock down. Their he is weak enough to give it a try.
But a "weak" Mick is still stronger than anybody else.
And when they come for his wife in a daring move that even Mick didn’t see coming, and the truth of why it all happened leads him down a rabbit hole of a past he prayed would never catch up with him, the man they thought was leaving the scene is back. And when Mick is back all hope of reconciliation is over. They set it off. He’ll burn it all down. And their miscalculation will lead to a war that nobody wanted, but everybody pays for.
In the latest fiery episode of the Mick Sinatra Romantic Suspense Thriller series, Mick and Roz are two the hard way, with vengeance in their hearts and both barrels blazing, and the mob world will never be the same again.

He tried it!
As usual, somebody thinks that they can take out Mick the Tick. Also as usual for a Mallory Monroe book, one has to pay attention to the beginning of the story. It's always a hint as to what the plot will be about. The head of the Sardinia mob made two big mistakes, he came for Mick's son and he came for Mick's beloved wife. The third mistake was that he left Italy coming to America thinking he could take over Mick's territory and get revenge all at the same time. In the end, he made Mick bigger. He's now the boss of all bosses' MFing boss.
I just love how this family comes together to support whatever family member is in need. EVERYBODY came to support Mick in his efforts to find Roz. When you come for one, you come for ALL of them, and they take no prisoners. They handle their business in-house. I love how big bad Mick just loves his wife. He knows he can't live without her. He was ready to set the world on fire to get her back while having the full support of his family.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and didn't stop until I finished it. I'm just wondering what is going on with Jenay. I guess a Big Daddy book will be next.

Yeah It's Good!!
This was just a fantastic read from the beginning to the very end. The writer gives us a peak in on a marriage that's in recovery and couple that love one another so much that they are trying everything to stay together. We not only get a glimpse of who Mick was,but who.he becomes.while making his bones and solidifies his place as a boss. I love the fact that the family comes when one is in trouble and do what needs to be done. Also we got of a look at Mick's first love ,which is Bella.Cain and I know.everyone is against all the help she receives from Mick but I'm not. I think Mick needs Bella,sometimes he needs a sounding broad and a soft landing. I also think that Roz and Bella should come to an adult compromise and stop all the petty. I mean Roz you got the man and he is not a cheater. Also I think Teddy and Nikki characters need to evolve into something so very very dangerous. Dominic is also coming into his own and I think he needs elevating in the organization, he can hold his own. Overall this was just good writing and good action,but I can't get over Roz suiting up and going out with Mick. In conclusion I think Trina being the first wife is not getting her due,she is "boss" and can handle business. Elevate this lady! Also don't remember Jenay being sick? Definitely worth all your reading time.

Errors: More Than Two
As good as it was to have the Sinatras, Gabrinis, Reeses, Paletti, and others together, the errors in this book completely dominated all the good. The action, as usual, was extremely entertaining. The plot and subplots were thin.
It was good to see the twins as teenagers. They were beautiful, intelligent and well spoken. The other Gabrinis and Sinatras had grown and matured, even Dommi. Mick and Roz still had ongoing problems with Mick being even more vicious. It got a little tiresome. In spite of the action, the errors overwhelmed everything. The errors were outrageous and disappointing and too numerous to name. They were shockingly careless and pulled me out of the story several times.
I've come to the conclusion that the author, or whoever is writing under her name, just doesn't care what the readers think. Then why should her faithful readers care???

Always Mallory Monroe never disappoints! I could not put my kindle down. I realized while reading this book, I should have read the other one with Alex and Karena after reading this instead of the reverse but either way, the storyline was awesome! I am pretty sure that Ms. Monroe will release a story about Big Daddy's family next. Everyone seems to want to risk their lives by challenging Mick the Tick! Wow! This was a great story but the only drawback (just for me) is that Mick keeps dealing with Bella Caine (Gloria's Mom). He was bold enough to tell Roz that he could not help it. I am not sure if I would have been able to continue to deal with him after telling his wife such a thing! Roz is a great lady but everyone has their limits! Just sayin'!

Out of retirement
I wanna know why!!!!!! Roz was with Mick on his revenge mission. She was useless. SMH. Poor Teddy and Nikki. Why Mick keep hitting 40 plus year old Teddy and Nikki? STOP!!!!!! Please. First time Dommi didn't become AKA Joey. He was a real man. Thank goodness 😂😂😂😂. I'm always happy the family comes together at the end but this ending was Soooo out of character for Mick. Noooo. I just hope Teddy and Nikki get an awesome ride or die story. Please find thirsty Bella a man so we don't hear from her again. Lol.

Hard love
Mick and Roz are my favorite characters. However I'm so ready for Roz to beat the neck out of Bella and for Mick to realize that Roz will definitely leave him. Anyways this book kept my attention. Teddy and Nicky are going to Shane soon I hope. I love the fact that the entire family shows up for each other.

Rollercoaster Worthy
My emotions are all over the place right now! I’m busy laughing, crying, angry, and sad the list goes on and on. Mallory has knocked it out of the park once again I truly enjoyed Two the hard way and I hope that this will not be the last if you haven’t read about Mic the tick, then you don’t know what you’re missing.

Don't mess with Rosalind
They're all fools. You mess with the Matriarch you get what you deserve. All the heavy hitters in that circle are bad. Even the wives. What's with Bella? She needs to get lost.

Excellent
I know I'm biased but I just love this author's work. I enjoy the updates into this family saga. I do hope we will be getting van update on big daddy & Jenay as we have been teased in this episode. You must read if you are not already I could not recommend enough

Oh well, the impossible happened. Roz was kidnapped and presumed dead. Mick, the rest of the Sinatras and Gabrinis went into war mode. By the time the smoke, the chaos and blood clears, another of Mick’s earlier bad deeds was the reason someone or someones wanted to bring Mick the Tick down.

A few Questions...
This story left me with a few questions that could have been answered in this book. Some other ones I'm guessing will be answered in a upcoming book.
