A ruthless mafia boss took me hostage to flush out my Ex - his younger brother. Now I’m pregnant and he must never know.
Everything about Lorenzo is dangerous.
His lifestyle, his penetrating dark gaze and his big bruising body that can either shelter me from harm or be the cause of my demise.
He kidnapped me to lure out my Ex - his traitorous brother who has joined forces with his enemy.
He expects me to be an obedient little hostage but that will never happen.
He’s a billionaire mafia boss, fifteen years older, with a god complex that makes me long for his downfall.
Yet, every time he leans down and whispers taunts against my ear, I shiver and flush with the need for him to chain me to his bed and pounce on me for a few nights.
I should focus on escaping, but my resolve weakens with his unexpected moments of tenderness and attention to my every comfort.
Our conversations reveal a man of strength and honour.
The lines are blurring where Stockholm syndrome is a real thing.
The man is a body expert and I willingly submit to his skillful touches and throbbing kisses.
But now I’m pregnant and I will be a hostage for life if Lorenzo finds out.
Valentina is a former girlfriend of Dante Moretti whose older brother Lorenzo is a dangerous, powerful mafia boss. She hadn’t seen Dante in 8 years when he stole all her money and vanished without a trace. But when he gives his loyalty to Lorenzo’s enemy, his brother will take immediate action to find him. The first step is to lure Dante out of hiding so he kidnaps Valentina to use her as bait. Unfortunately, she ends up falling for Lorenzo. Instead of concentrating on freedom and escape, she stays long enough to discover she is now pregnant. If Lorenzo finds out, he will never let her go. What will she decide to do? Does she want her freedom? Or is she willing to belong to him forever?
This was a high octane read from the first page. The characters were so clear, human, and realistic with feelings and their actions were clearly motivated by those feelings and desires. Lorenzo and Valentina had an intense connection, and Dante's betrayal of them both only heightened their bond. As the lies and tangled web of deciet is carefully unwoven, will loyalties stand strong or will they prove to be mouthing more than the lies upon which they were founded?
This book not only engaged my attention, it kept me on the edge of my seat through all the twists, turns, and "hold your breathe" moments. This may well be my favorite Pearl book thus far! I'm greatful for the gift copy and highly recommend it to others. Happy Reading Y'all 📚 * Voluntary ARC Review

Love a good mafia read. This is a new author to me and I will read more from her.
Lorenzo thinks kidnapping his brother’s ex, Val, will bring him out. But, kidnapping her brings on another series of problems Lorenzo was t expecting. What you ask? Well you will need to read The Mob Boss's Hostage to find out what happens between Lorenzo and Valentina and just how Lorenzo gets Dante to come out of hiding.
Holy Smokes this mafia romance read is full of surprises and reveals some secrets that is shocking but most importantly this is one sexy and steamy romance. This book will hook you from page one and make you fall in love with Lorenzo and Valentina's characters who are going to take you on an unforgettable ride full of intense suspense until the very end.
The mob boss’s hostage was Lorenzo and Valentina’s story. It was an intriguing and intense read. This was a new author, for me. And voluntarily leaving this review.
