From USA Today BestsellingAuthor Heather Dahlgren comes a dark, addictive romance where one forbidden night ignites a passion that could destroy them both.
Giovanni DeLuca was born into power, bred to be ruthless, and bound by blood to a family empire built on secrets. A Halloween costume party at the DeLuca casino was meant to be business as usual, settle a long-standing debt, and move on. But when Robbie Costa walks in with his daughter on his arm, everything changes.
Siena Costa is temptation wrapped in fishnets and velvet ears, completely unaware of the world she’s just stepped into or the man who suddenly can’t take his eyes off her. When her father vanishes and she’s left stranded, Giovanni offers her a ride home. One night turns into something neither of them saw coming. A slow burn that erupts into a fire neither of them can resist.
But the deeper Siena falls for Giovanni, the closer she gets to the truth hiding beneath the surface of his charm and wealth. In his world, loyalty is deadly, trust is earned in blood, and love may be the most dangerous gamble of all.
Because some debts don’t disappear, and the past always comes back to collect.

This book was really good, but I’m bloodthirsty and I think Carlo needed to pay for what he did. However ~ The love story was intense and absolutely perfect for the characters. Giovanni and Siena knew each other vaguely in high school, but when they come together as adults, FIREWORKS and other things that go boom! The sexytime was so. Very. Hot. My Kindle started sweating. The plot revolved around secrets, and was perfectly executed. The story was paced beautifully, all the right beats. I’m really impressed by the writing skill here. I look forward to reading more by this author because I absolutely loved this book. And the devil and play boy bunny costumes were inspired. Especially the pitchfork cuff links and him being able to call her Little Bunny. Here’s the breakdown: MMC/FMC- Giovanni and Siena Safety- Y Heat- explicit Triggers- graphic violence, gambling addiction, language. Tropes- The Devil You Don’t Know, Bunny Tale, Instalove, She’s All Grown Up, Secrets and Lies, Dysfunctional Family FTW, Holiday (Halloween), Do-Si-Do with the Mafioso.

Giovanni and Siena kinda knew each other in high school, or maybe I should say they knew who each other was. Now adults, all it takes is just one look from Giovanni, and he's wanting a little bunny. You'll understand that when you read the book. Siena's dad is a piece of shit but she doesn't know how bad he is. Will she find out?Will Giovanni be able to protect her? I feel like this was a good story, but I also feel like it was missing something. Well, a few things. Carlo should have paid for what he did. I don't care that he's Giovanni's dad. I also feel like Maria got pushed to the side. She should have learned what Carlo did and taken some action against him, too. These are just my opinions.
Halloween Hits brings into the 31 Days of Trick or Treat Bikers and Mobsters world. This is Giovanni DeLuca and Siena Costa's journey and oh my goodness is it ever a steamy, intense ride! At Halloween all kinds of things come out to play. And in this fantastic journey the devil is pulling all stops to catch his Bunny. Their story is messy, gritty, dangerous and chaotic but it's also filled with understanding, compassion and love. This couple is fantastic and the chemistry between them is explosive. It's a great addition to this series.

Halloween Hit by Heather Dahlgren is part of the multi-author 31 Days of Trick or Treat: Biker & Mobster series. Each book I have read in this series so far has been really good and this one is no different. The story finds Siena Costa and Giovanni DeLuca. He is a wolf in expensive clothing and she is a sweet bunny who is lured into his trap, well may not quite like that but you get the idea. He is captivated by her beauty the first time he sets eyes on her and that means Siena is about to enter a world she is not fully aware of. What happens this Halloween is a lot of fun with more than a few tricks and a lot of treats.
Giovanni and Siena's story is a dark and forbidden one. From the moment Siena walks into his casino, Giovanni is taken by her, and he's determined to make her his no matter the cost. This is a deliciously dark story with crazy twists and turns that made this a page turner. The writing is good, the characters are well developed and captivating, and their chemistry is intense. Halloween Hit is a steamy addition to the multi-author 31 Days of Trick or Treat: Biker & Mobster series. I look forward to reading the rest of the books. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.
The light always outshines the darkness. When Giovanni finds a pretty little bunny in his casino, he's captivated by her beauty. Unfortunately, she is a witness to what is about to happen so he must take her out of the equation by seducing her. Beauty and the business aren't supposed to mix but Giovanni has found his light and will fight to keep her. Awesome book by a new to me author. Thanks for an interesting tale.
He's hosting a Halloween party when Sienna walks in on the arms of her father. One look has them drawn to each other and when her father disappears Gio offers to take her home and that starts their very enticing journey. This story had me glued to the pages and all caught up in the thrilling drama from start to finish.

No way.. No epilogue? No proposal at the picnic over a P & J sandwich? Betrayal is a word that will tear your heart out. No forgiveness. No questions why? Until you hear the truth of what kind of a person they actually were. It's such a great read. Loved them together. When a person can bring you to the light from a dark place. You may want to hold on to them. Forever

I enjoyed this Hallowe'en story. Siena and Giovanni are good characters with good chemistry. I like their character growth. There is a twist in the story. There are steamy scenes. I recommend this to anyone who likes Hallowe'en and Mafia Romances.
