I was supposed to kill him...
instead I'm having his baby.

My family was torn apart ten years ago. My family blames the people I trusted most.

They want me to give them their revenge...
but waking up in Luka's bed probably isn't what they had in mind.

He’s the mob boss’s son. He might be my father’s killer. And he may be the one person who can give me answers to my past.

This is a Full-Length Standalone with NO CLIFFHANGER

I loved the sweet Luka, "...he wrapped his arms around my naked body. “I will never make that mistake again. You are mine now.” I liked Luka, he knew what he wanted and he went after it. I enjoyed this book it flowed nicely.

I received a free e-copy of this book from the author (I think). I did not realize that "boss" meant mob boss. If I had, I would not have read it, as I am not interested in glorifying criminals. That said, the author gave the H & h character that made the reader want to know them better. Mia's mother worked for Levi's father, the Giotia mob boss, doing his books. She was from a rival "family", but first left the family to marry her husband and then fled the abusive husband, taken in by the Giotias. When teens, Mia and Levi were "in love" with each other, but never admitted it to each other or anyone else. One day, Mia's mother and 2 other "office staff" are murdered, while Mia was hiding under her mother's desk. Mia fled. That was 10 years ago(?) Meanwhile, Levi has been in prison for the last few years, but first thing he wants when he gets out is Mia. The story is a bit convoluted, and I won't give away the plot, but it was a good well written story.

Read all of Savannah Rylan books and loved them. This one is a bit different to her mc books theis one follows the Gioti family. Levi has done some things in his life and one thing he would always do was protect her, but 10 years has gone by and Levi wants to know where she is even fron behind bars.

Mia has one job to do take down the people that killed her family but when she see's Levi for the first time in 10 years all her feelings she thought had gone came rushing back. But now she is faced with the decision of betray the man she loves or betray her family.

Who will Mia choose? No matter the consequences not everyone will be happy with her choice.

I got this book free for signing up for the author's newsletter. Levi is the son of the Gioti mafia family. Mia has come back into his life and now Levi won't let her go. This book is full of suspense as the two mafia families interact. The subject matter was a great idea and the author developed the characters great.

Weird start, but did have a pretty good ending. Storyline was good. It’s a quick easy read.

Overall the book was good, but something was missing.. Maybe less s*x scenes and more thought provoking processes/talking parts..

Review by: Melanie
(4 stars)

A fast moving mafia story.

When Luka gets out of prison, his first plan of action is to go to Vienna, the girl he has loved but not seen for the past 10 years. Vienna has returned to Baltimore on a mission; to get answers and revenge. Of course when Vienna sets her eyes on Luka, the man she has loved since childhood, the reasons behind her mission seem a little hazy.

Smokin chemistry, resulting in some hot sexy times, are the main ingredient here, with some drama, betrayal, action and bloodshed added for flavour. I'm not quite sure why it's called a secret baby romance though, that doesn't fit at all.

A very enjoyable quick read, I'd certainly read something from Celia Ryan again, and I give Bad Boy Boss 4 stars.

This book should be made into a motion picture. There was action, suspense, romance and revenge. All the ingredients to a great story. Vienna is the one woman that Luka cannot get out of his head. After serving time in prison his first and only thought is finding his way back to her. Vienna is determined to resist his charm but that never lasts long and they both find themselves craving the other. Not everyone is on board with this relationship and pull out all the stops to end it. This story was fast paced and spicy. The connection between the two was undeniable and the action of the mafia family kept you guessing what would happen next. I enjoyed every minute of it and recommend it to everyone.

The cover of this Bad Boy book grabs your attention and while reeling you in, moistens your panties! I liked this story of Vienna and Luka, their past, current, future and all the baggage a large family brings! Vienna was part of a family until one day her mother was killed and she was forced into another family. Life was not the same as she waited to get her revenge on him. Luka has been thinking of her every day and could not wait to be released so he could claim her. As their past and present combine Vienna and Luka will need to be honest with each other to make things work.

I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

Pretty good.

I really enjoyed this book. It had a lot going for it. Love.drama.family and action. There was constantly something happening to keep your attention. Quick little read. I did however feel like some details were left out and skipped over. I had a few questions while reading it because I felt like things weren't explained as good as they could have been. I guess my biggest question was why did Luka wait so long to finally find Vienna. But overall I would recommend this book.

Luka is the son of the Mafia boss, Vienna is the daughter of the accountant for the boss. They weren't supposed to be together. Fast forward, Luka is getting ready to be released from prison. Vienna's mom was killed by her fathers friend. She is supposed to get close to Luca for her uncle, so they get kill him. But, when she sees him again, she can't. They were a good couple. It was a very quick read. Would love another book to continue their story. Would definitely recommend.

Great story but have an issue with the subject matter. Men who kill but consider themselves good Catholics I know it happens but just doesn't sit well with me.
