Lorenzo Even as she lies in a coma in the hospital bed, I’m drawn to her. Can’t keep my eyes off of her for too long. While my twin refuses to admit it, he can’t either. Unfortunately, when she finally wakes up it’s with no memory of who she is or how she ended up on the yacht the night of my cousin’s wedding. My instinct directs me to believe that frightened, lost look in her eyes. But can I risk the lives of my family members?
Matteo My twin is foolish. He believes in love and all that nonsense, just like our father. He too, was a smart man but ended up dying of a broken heart when he lost the woman he loved most in this world. I have to keep Lorenzo from making the same mistake. It’s what I’ve been trying to do our entire lives, especially now that we’re caught up in this war between two powerful families. We’re fighting for our lives and for the lives of everyone we love. I’ve prepared for this my entire life. The only problem is, I too, can’t stop thinking about the woman from the hospital. The one who’s first name is the only thing we know about her, but somehow she ended up on our family’s yacht, injured.
Sierra Their voices are what pulled me out of my slumber. I awakened only to learn that I have no memory of who I am or how I came to be in the hospital. The only thing I know is that I’m scared and alone, until I see the faces of the voices that kept me company while I slept. Their golden eyes are mesmerizing, the danger that ripples off of them is appealing, but it’s the way we’re drawn to each other like moths to a flame that I can’t get enough of. I may not know who I am or where I came from but I know that Matteo and Lorenzo are my destiny.
There is a wedding, an explosion and of course, casualties.
Matteo and Lorenzo are identical twins, cousins to the Genoverse mafia family. Their cousin Christian is marrying Belle and an explosion takes place. Corelia, family chef mentions introducing the twins to someone perfect for them? Unfortunately, Corelia does not survive or introduces them.
Sierra, is in a coma from the explosion, she is a suspect as no one recognizes her. She is wearing a uniform for the kitchen staff, so all they can do is wait. Sierra is wearing a bracelet with the name Sierra, assuming that’s who she is. Lorenzo and Matteo visit her everyday in the hospital but Lorenzo is feeling attached. Matteo has his guard up while keeping a distance.
When she does wake up, she has no idea of a last name or who she is? She does not recall the explosion or who got her on a kitchen staff? She recalls a few snippets of memories but they really don’t shed much? Sierra is drawn to both; Matteo is grumpy doesn’t talk much. Lorenzo is nice and friendly so Sierra is more open to him. Sierra remembers she can cooks but not much more.
Things get complicated as war between the families escalates. The women and children are sent away for protection. Sierra has more memory flashes. Someone unexpected comes looking for Sierra? There is a HEA and a nice ending.
I liked the other parts of this story (who Sierra is, etc.) and not the romantic stuff. I was hoping that Sierra would be with just Lorenzo (maybe just Matteo) but not both at the same time! Her marrying both men is totally unheard of and not acceptable for me. But, that is just me. Old rules and old fashioned. Otherwise, the writing is tops especially because it is Tiffany Patterson! I am now reading the next one about Sierra's twin sister, Kierra.
