About the author

I live in a beautiful river town in North Carolina with my husband, kids, in-laws and fur babies. I love to travel and books. If I am not reading one I am writing one. I love how a book can give you an escape from our normal world. You can be anywhere and become anyone.

I want anyone reading one of my books to remember this....
you are worthy, you are loved, you are wanted!

The Rizzoli story continues with Romeo! Another perfectly balanced Mafia romance that will have you seeking vengeance right along with them.
Three words... "eyes on me" 🫠🫠🫠

Ohhh boy do I hope there is another book coming soon. That’s all I have to say

While Cross is still my absolute favorite and hard to top, Romeo is tied in second place with Liam. I loved the twists and turns. The surprises at the end are perfect cliff hangers for the next book.

Of course, my new fav indie author has done it again with the last book in the Rizzoli Family trilogy.

 "O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?"
Well, let's discuss that question. Romeo is who he is because of his found family, The Rizzoli's. With his found family, he found THE one and only for him, Cece. Romeo does not pursue his interest in Cece due to her being his best friend's sister, but he never gave up on wanting her.

Cece has a traumatic experience and is on a downfall when Romeo finds her. Cece had always looked at Romeo as more than her brother's best friend too, but with trauma comes healing and their relationship becomes end game for one another. I absolutely love Romeo, but Cross will have to remain my #1 out of this series.

I felt like Romeo and Cece's story was unfinished and left me needing more. This has been confirmed that there will be more of them in future books that will help complete their story and background. So, if you are left feeling this way, just know it is coming.

Without spoilers - you will enjoy this read if you enjoy mafia romance, best friend's sister, and "eyes on me" references.

**I do recommend for this book to check your trigger warnings as this one does contain explicit scenes on self-harm.**

I'm speechless. I'm not sure how it's humanly possible that with each book written, they just continue to get better and better, but they do. This story follows Romeo (MMC) and Cece (MFC) on such a beautiful journey of healing, love, and family.

Romeo is in love with Cece, who is his best friend's,more like a brother, little sister. And has been for years. Unfortunately, Cece endures something very traumatic and keeps it a secret from those who love her the most. Leading her down a dark and spiraling path. Until Romeo discovers her secret and vows to burn the world down to keep his "Mia Vita" safe. We get to follow their journey of both healing and revenge. There were times in this book that I could genuinely feel my heart breaking, and other times that I was blushing and giggling. "Eyes on me" if you know you know. 😉 I highly recommend anyone on the fence to read these books. You will not be disappointed with any of the Rizzoli men.

Disclaimer: Please ensure to read all trigger warnings, as this book does cover some very heavy topics.

This one almost brought me to tears. The Rizzolis may be ruthless and dangerous to their enemies, but they are also loving, fiercely protective, and openly kind with those they decide are family. Once you're in - you're in. Romeo had no one but his ailing grandfather, and when he was brought into the fold he found his real family. CeCe grew up as a Rizzoli, but kept her darkest experiences and pain to herself, until she couldn't. I love that the obsessive protection and instant love we saw first with Mia and Liam, then Cross and Sam, has only grown ten-fold with Romeo and CeCe. GREAT, great writing, and well-built story. Can't wait to read what Smith does next!

[Jacqueline Espinoza · Rating 4 out of 5]

Romeo, Romeo, Romeo! Currently my favorite of the Rizzoli's! While this book didn't have as much spice as the previous two, it made up for it with plenty of love, family support, and suspense. The dynamics between the Rizzoli family members are beautifully portrayed, making you feel like you're part of their world. The love and loyalty that bind them together are amazing, and Romeo's character truly stands out, bringing an extra layer of charm to the story. Highly recommend!

My Favorite Couple

Romeo and Cece are my favorite couple so far in this series. I feel like I’ve gotten to know both of them in the other books, but this book sealed them as my favorite. The twists and turns of the book were well written, but it wasn’t so many that it became ridiculous. Can’t wait to read the next book!

[Beth · Rating 5 out of 5]

Could not put it down! Romeo is so hard but soft, and dang if he doesn't become the man of your dreams! This is a dark romance but I adore how the author incorporated the suspense and then added a twist at the end that I did not see coming. Amazing! Can't wait to read more!

mafia

This really hit a lot it takes you down the dark path of the true lifestyle of mafia and having family and have people back you up and love bug hitting everyone. This touches everything to family to kids and open arms welcoming everyone in the family.

[Kelly Winfree · Rating 5 out of 5]

That ending!

I love that ending! I love that he didn't even get a name! I love how CeCe fought to take back control of herself and her life. And I double love how she fights with Romeo.

Thank you so much for reading Romeo and Cecilia's love story. Cecilia has to be my favorite female character I have written so far! I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed writing them!
