Tatiana Ortiz is fed up with her friends trying to set her up on dates. A relationship would be nice, but it isn't the be all and end all. Ever since her mother died all Tatiana wanted to do was travel and this year she plans to go to Italy. But then a tall, dark Italian walks into her life...

Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant! Operation Interrupted
by M.L. Rosado is one of those books that you can completely lose yourself in. I was so engrossed I did not notice my husband coming home from work! Oops!!

I adored the characterisation of Tatiana. She is incredibly compassionate and caring. Just the kind the woman that Donato needs to heal the pain of his past. Their relationship is very fast moving, and so is this book. The story was gripping, and their relationship was believable. This book is so good that I read it in one sitting.

I am so excited to see that this is book 1 in a series. I cannot wait to read book 2.

A big five stars from me. I Highly Recommend.

a steamy contemporary romance with a mix of suspense. A hot Italian chef (what's not to like) is immediately smitten by a fun loving travel enthusiast Latinas, Tatiana, when he spots her in a club. As they begin to get to know each other, Tatiana lets slip that there is one thing she can't stand- a man that lies and has secrets. Uh-huh, poor Donato he has a past riddled with secrets and lying is all he knows. There is lots of sizzling chemistry and a dangerous secret that keep the pages turning. This does contain a cliff hanger so I guess there is more to come in these brothers' adventures.

Great Read

I loved the way D was so sensitive and caring, but still jelous and possessive. The relationship between D and Tatiana was sweet. The relationship between the brothers is heartwarming and shows how much they care for each other. This is a book that keeps you glued to the pages, and I can't wait to read the next book to find out what happens with the brothers and Maura.

I liked Tatiana from the first page. She’s that perfect combination of sexy (but unaware of how sexy she is), smart, and feisty. It took a woman like her to draw Donaldo in. His secretive past might scare some women away, but Tatiana handles the challenge perfectly. The family relationships for both characters felt genuine. Each character was well thought out and blended to create a very satisfying story. I will definitely watch for the book in the series.

A good bit of escapism :)
This is a 'hot-insta-love' book, but I was pleased that it was much more than that.
The writer tells us a lovely story, with a nice writing style and pace.
Overcoming problems felt real and the characters are warm and lovable, hot Italian chef... yep very lovable!!

Operation Interrupted is a hot saucy romance with all the extra ingredients to make it a very memorable read.

I simply fell in love with Tatiana Ortiz when I first met her. She’s sweet and lovely and travels the world one country at a time to help her cope with the loss of her mother. And just when you think there’s no one good enough for Tati, author ML Rosado brings out Donato Gesatti who ticks all Tati’s boxes and more. Italian, super sexy, sweetly possessive, kind and generous, and oh does he know exactly what to do to a woman’s body, Donato is the only man for Tati.

Feisty Tati is more than capable of taking care of herself, but when Donato deliciously and daringly gives her more than her independent nature can handle, she doesn’t back down from standing up to him. There was definitely going to be a clash of wills between the two, well except in the bedroom where the scenes will leave you breathless!

But their happily ever after isn’t an easy and fun end to the finish. Plagued by nightmares and haunted by devastating secrets, Donato’s past is catching up with him and Tatiana’s love for him may very well suffer the consequences.

Operation Interrupted is a rich, flavor-full love story, with a great cast of supporting characters, sometimes intense, sometimes funny but all the way beautiful from start to finish. ML Rosado’s writing is a feast of good food and exquisite love and will have you savoring the story of Donato and Tatiana for a long time. I can not to see what else is in store for Tati and Donato.

I thought the story line was good but boy did they move fast in their relationship. I guess that’s what you do when you know but it was only 3 dates and they were using the “L” word and after a few weeks talking marriage. There is definitely a trust issue with Donato, he’s very protective of Tatiana which includes not letting her go a couple hours without talking to him. I was extremely happy with the closeness of family and friends they have. They all seem to love and accept each other. Donato has been thru a lot in his life but is holding a lot of secrets from his brothers. I don’t understand why he hasn’t told them when they are all adults. They are a very close knit Italian family who seem to love and annoy each other very well. Anyway, regardless of that they accept Tati into the family, mostly due to her bowling skills and her love for Italian food. She’s also a fabulous cook as well. I love Tati because regardless of how overprotective Donato is, she still manages to take time with her friends and go out. She is dealing with a lot as well but has a very supportive family and friends. I guess the biggest factor is for me is the moving way to fast. I’m all for falling in love and love at first site but there’s so much they don’t know about each other like they said the “L” word but he didn’t know she could bowl... I think you would get to a person before you spring that up on them. Anyway, this is just my opinion so don’t beat me up to bad.

Absolutely Adored this Romance!
I am honored to give Ms. Rosado a review of her first book ‘Operation Interrupted’.
I love to read a great romance that pulls me into another world. This read did not disappoint.

Tatiana Ortiz is the only single left in her group of friends. Even though they’ve set her up on disastrous blind dates…she still loves them. I loved Tatiana’s friends, especially Eli—everybody needs a friend like him. She has spent her time travelling the globe. Her mom left her a ‘travel fund’ to start her adventures. Her mom wanted her to see the world and it’s exactly what she has been doing. All that’s on her mind is her current trip planned for Italy until she meets Donato Gesatti with his Italian accent and good looks.

A spark is ignited and Donato begins to romance Tatiana. But there seems to be a secret that begins to hold her back from completely devoting herself to him. This story will keep you turning the page, cheering for this romance to develop and in between the turns we are given mystery…suspense and a few spicy scenes. Warning: Operation Interrupted will definitely interrupt your thoughts of putting this book down!

I highly recommend this book. It is filled with excitement, adventure, mystery, friendships and a hot romance.

4.5 star Review of Operation Interrupted by ML Rosado

ML Rosado is a new author to me and when the opportunity came up to review her book I was excited by the premise and jumped at the chance. I was not disappointed.

This is the story of Tatiana Ortiz and Donato Gesatti.

Except for her random choice of holiday destinations, Tatiana spends a great deal of time researching and planning her adventures, with Italy her latest destination. What happens when her planning is interrupted by the intriguing and mysterious Donato Gesatti ?

Their attraction is obvious, but what happens when Donato’s past impacts his present? Tatiana finds herself falling deeper and deeper under his spell. I loved the roller-coaster of emotions I felt whilst I was reading this book. I was certainly invested in what was happening between these two.

The sex scenes are hot and certainly spice up the reading of the book. I particularly enjoy books where a little, suspense, mystery and intrigue are also part of the overall book. Not to mention that the secondary characters also had me intrigued too.

I look forward to seeing where ML Rosado takes these two on their next adventure.

I received a free kindle copy of Operation Interrupted by ML Rosado, published by Freya’s Bower in an Amazon promotion in exchange for a fair review. I

gave it four stars.


Tatiana's gay friend Eli told her: “You look gorgeous!” he said. “I would do you in a second if I had a moment of confusion.”


Group of friends going out for a good time: "..we went to Vino, an Italian bar that had live music, appetizers, and drinks with names like “Orgasmo.” They were not only delicious, but they would hammer the good girl right out of you—exactly what I needed."


Donato & Tatiana hit it off instantly. They were firey hot for each other & it showed in all their actions. They moved with passion into each other's arm & it was if they belonged together.


Yet, he had a secret that could damage their future. Can they overcome it?

Copy gifted by the author in exchange for an honest review.

It was a pure luck that I have up signed to review second part of the series. But I'm glad I did it and I'm even more happy that was offered to review the first book also as they are both freaking amazing!

The main character, Tatiana, is a sweet and adorable young woman, who is struggling to cope with the loss of her mum. To avoid feeling empty she travels around the world. She thinks no one will be able to fill that emptiness. Until she meets Donato. Sexy, handsome... he is everything that she ever dream about.

And here you may start thinking that it will be a typical romance. But no. Ms Rosado has created a sexy and steamy relationship between the two, and also thrown some secrets from Donato's past that are starting catching up with both of them.

Amazing book, 5 stars!

What I really loved about this book was my inability to put it down. Dinner was late and my husband was ignored because I just had to find out what was going to happen. ML writes with passion and plausibility, which made Donato even more delicious because he was beautifully flawed.

Well worth the read.
