Behavior #2
Dirty Behavior
I was supposed to kill her. Now she's having my baby.
Taking her was dangerous, but keeping her... That wasn't in the plan.
My job was to kill her. But I couldn't.
That went against everything I was trained to do.
But Ivy's full curves and sweet lips turned me from stone cold to rock hard.
I promised her protection and safety, I promised her forever.
Except the man who's chasing us isn't willing to let her go. He thought killing my father would change my mind.
He was dead wrong.
I took her virginity, that meant she was mine.
I'm going to get my revenge, and I'm going to keep hold of the woman I love.
And when she tells me her secret, that she's carrying our child...
I know things are about to get dirty.

This 2 part duet was just ok, IMO. I didn't really find anything I liked about the /h. The big bad guy reveal wasn't really a shocker at the end. There was a lot of skimming for me in this read.

Leah outdid herself with this book. When Ivy's dad gets himself into a big bind and owes a ton of money, he does the only thing he can do. He sells his daughter to Reme. Now he didn't have much of a choice, it was either Remo takes Ivy or he kills her whole entire family. Remo takes her from her dad's and drugs her so when she comes to she isn't sure where she is or why. That's when Remo tells her that her dad sold her and he now owns her and her virginity. Needless to say, Remo isn't the only one with power so when Dante is supposed to come and kill Ivy he kidnaps her instead and steals her away from Remo. Instead of killing Ivy, he falls in love with her and she does with him. Can they make a relationship work while on the run from Remo? Will Remo give up trying to find Ivy? What will Remo do when he finds out that Ivy is no longer a virgin, thanks to Dante? I can tell you if you read the book, you will not be disappointed whatsoever in the outcome. It's a great read and keeps you on your toes. I voluntarily read an Advanced Reader's Copy of this book.

Part two of this duet picks up where Bad Behaviour ended,with the death of Dante’s father.
Correction,with the murder of his father.
Seeing it on the news,with the clue left by the killer,Dante and Ivy know exactly who did it.
And they know they have to make him pay,not only for the murder,but for what happened to Ivy as well.
When they return home,after the funeral,Dante sets off to find the people who can help him.
Ivy has a surprise visit by his brother,Sesto,and sees a different man than Dante described.
One that she isn’t so sure betrayed his family......
There are plenty of twists and turns in this part to keep you on your toes.
Plus,i have to warn you,flashbacks of what happened to Ivy whilst being with Remo.
I have to admit,i enjoyed the second part as much as the first and it left me with a good feeling.
The story is complete,the only thing left is Sesto,but i guess he’ll get his story.....

This book contains book one and two
Love the story,
Dark mafia romance by Leah Holt, great story line that kept my interest sitting the edge.
The story about Dante and Ivy and their turbulent hot and steamy loves tory on the run.
Stealing the virgin was not his intend, he was told to capture her as bargain power. Dante the powerful killer with no emotions nor feeling, was brought down by sweet little Ivy. Disobeying his orders put both of them as risk. And the mafia will not bargain. Will love survive, will they have a chance, read the book it is worth it
This book not only has a lot of twists and action and suspense but also scorching hot sex scenes

Dante & Ivy
I wanted to like this story. I really did. I've read other books with a similar plot but I just couldn't enjoy this story. I tried though, several times but I ended up skipping pages just so I could get to the end sooner. I think it was just the characters of Dante and Ivy as a combo. In the beginning I got the sense that Dante was an alpha male but as the story unfolded certain characteristics just didn't click for me.
I would definitely read more from this author. I think it was just this particular story with these characters that couldn't hold my attention.

The 2nd part of Dante & Ivy's story was pretty good! A few parts had me getting mad because either Ivy or Dante would make such stupid decisions & it had me guessing the outcome!! But it was still a pretty good book. A few parts managed to even surprise me! If you're into dark Mafia romance, this is for you! If you don't care for dark Mafia romance, you still might like this book & book 1-I liked them & I'm not crazy about dark Mafia romances! Definitely read book 1 first!! Now I can't wait to read Dante's brothers book!

I am not sure how I felt about this book. Ivy is a strong woman and she fought her captive Romeo. Dante fell in love with her and didn’t want to return her. At one point ivy thought she was going through Stockholm syndrome but she wasn’t. Ivy ends up pregnant with Dante’s baby, Dante father was murdered because he wouldn’t give Ivy back and his brother Sesto gets released from jail

Wow what an ending to Ivy and Dante's story. I'm glad they got their hea but it was definitely a fight to get there. This was most definitely a very intense book. Ivy has a heart of gold and a heart of a fighter. Her and Dante both will do whatever it takes to save the other. Definitely a good book.

OMG I read this in one go, for a shorter mafia/alpha male book this was awesome 👌.
Had a little of every genre for everyone, won't go into detail as I don't want to ruin it, if you like Leah...YOU'LL LOVE THIS.

Gripping and Intense
A hot, sexy, full of action and intriguing book, the story begins in the centre of dark intense drama, with some shocking moments, it doesn't waste any time in getting the reader's attention. Enjoyable reading.

Another amazingly great book written by Leah Holt. There was action, drama, suspense, emotion packed into this story. If you like dark romance then this is the book for you. The characters were amazing as well as the story line. I really enjoyed this book from the beginning to end. Can't wait to see what she has in store for us next.

I got this book as an ARC for my honest opinion. This is by first book by Lean Holt. I have been really getting into the Mafia books but it is mix with dark romance and that just got me all excited. I could not wait to get my hands on this read. I was not disappoint it was well done.
Dante runs the business with his father Bane. After been double crossed by Remo. Dante kidnapped Ivy until they get what they are owed. Bane wants Ivy dead but Dante can’t do it. He is normally a bit cold heart, but something about Ivy warms that dark heart of his. Will they get a chance for love or will it be back to business for Dante?

Books 1 and 2
Notes on this book. #1 if I was a virgin who was kidnapped after being "sold" my first thoughts would not talk about my nether regions wanting to have sex. #2 if I was a harden criminal I would not be talking about 'feelings' and how I would 'make love's to a woman.
With that said, interesting series. Thankful the author added part one at the beginning of the book. Ended up enjoying it. A story of family, forgiveness, pride, doing what is right.

Sometimes a conclusion to a series feels a bit like a throw away book, not a lot of substance. Not Dirty Behavior.....Leah Holt nailed it. What a great ending to a solid series. Dante and Ivy are great characters and well written. This story moves, has some twists and turns, and is smoking' hot!! Well done Leah

Bad Boy Mobster
I liked how the story depicts that you can go against the way you have been raised if it doesn't suit you
I'm looking forward to the next story in this series, at least to me it seems that there will be another story that follows Sesto's story

Where do I start WITH OUT SPOILERS?!!!
LEAH HOLT has done it AGAIN...Do you ever get that book that you get so into that its like watching t.v. in your head? This was one of those for me. Full of great action and suspension. Ivy is a woman on the edge forced there by someone unexpectedly in her family she thought she could trust. Dante is a man, who is all alpha..trying to be what everyone needs but he finds Ivy...and can't look away...
Leah Holt is quickly becoming one of my favorite writers..more please Ms Leah..write faster!!!- EXCELLENT JOB ON THIS ONE!!! I COULDN'T READ IT FAST ENOUGH....

After reading Bad Behavior I couldn't wait to read Dirty Behavior. This is the conclusion to Ivy & Dantes story. If you haven't read the first book I recommend reading it before this one.
I enjoyed reading Dantes fierceness when it came to Ivy, there's nothing he won't do to keep her safe and out of harms way. Dante lost a lot to keep Ivy protected and he's not just looking out for her but, he also wants to avenge his dad.
There's a lot of twists and turn of events in this book, just like the first one but, it touches even more on the connection of the h & h.

I highly recommend you read Bad Behavior first to get the back story for Ivy and Dante! You won't regret it! Dirty Behavior gives us more on this awesome couple. I loved this book - more danger and intrigue about the Pisani crime family, and it's packing a whole lot of action, suspense, and heat. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

I absolutely loved the conclusion of Ivy and Dante's story!!
Ivy has dealt with such horrific things by the hands of a monster!!
Dante will do everything in his power to protect Ivy and will. Ever give her up!!
This story is dark, full of action with many twist and turns.
The chemistry between Ivy and Dante is hot and completely off the charts!!
Another fantastic read by Leah Holt!!

3 1/2*
Carrying on from bad behaviour we saw that Ivy's father had no choice but to give her to Remo without her knowledge.
Dante had taken her from Remo for revenge but found he wanted her for himself. The story is full of twists & turns. It's Left me curious to see sesto Dante's brothers secrets!
