Tomassi #2
Dangerous Conceit
Lexi is a bartender in disguise, a chameleon—an assassin.
Everything Lexi has become is all to keep a four-year-old girl safe. Moretti knows that Lexi will do whatever he says for the sake of the child and orders her to remove Crime Boss Angelo Tomassi from his throne. With his luxurious hotel, high-end investments and legion of workers that cater to his every whim, Angelo invokes jealousy from crooked politicians by refusing to give them more shares.
Moretti sends Lexi to take it all.
Lexi is not ignorant to the risks and sees an opportunity to escape Moretti’s grasp. She devises a plan to ask for Angelo’s help, hoping he will not connect her to Moretti first. Getting on Angelo's good side should be easy when she agrees to go out with the sexy business connoisseur and Angelo’s right hand man, Rafa.
One problem—Rafa is a sharp, no-nonsense elite who says he already knows her. Lexi must find out how before petitioning for the help of the Tomassi Group.

I enjoy creating stories. It drives me. My novels are intended to entertain, to bring the reader to a world they would not normally encounter. Don't expect a moral or some life lesson by which to live. My books are for simple enjoyment. To paraphrase one of my readers, my books will "change your mood."
Thank you for reading and welcome to my elaborate plots.

So I did not get even to the halfway point the start of the book was too stupid for me to get past. This man is supposed to know Lexi and they shared something and she has no idea regardless of the way he looks now that was just a bit much for me. I also find that Rafa is a little to oh poor me when it comes to his relationship with Angelo I felt this a bit in the first book as well and it has just grown. You know from the start what the general plot will be and I do not know why I just could not get into it. I may come back at some point and try to read the rest but it just was not in me now. I still suggest picking it up and giving it a try because you may enjoy it everyone has a diffrent taste. If you have not I suggest reading the first book in this series that book was pretty good.

The second book is a must read
This second book in the series is completely wonderful. I read the first version when it was on wattpad and am totally in love with this version only this book. She changed some of the dynamics, but it still had the same wonderful thought process behind the book. Rafa's and Lexi's story puts tears and happiness throughout the whole story. This book is a must read. I cannot wait for the third book in this series to come out.

Love it
Another brilliant book by Ali. While Rafa is my least favourite male lead in this series, I still love him. Lexi is a total badass, shes so strong and smart. She won't have you pulling your hair out with the stupid decisions she makes. The only thing I can complain about is the lack of Angelo and Ella. I needed them on every page, but that's personal preference :p I can't wait for Miguels book. 100% recommend the book, and especially the series.

I’ve read this book so many times!!
I remember reading “Mafia Protection” and this book when the author had first wrote it on an app called Wattpad. I was 15 at the time and had read the books over and over and over. To see it published brings joy to my heart! I’m happy that I purchased it and can continue to read it again and again!!!

Love everything except the book cover
The book is thrilling and well written. I loved everything about the book except its cover. It looks so plain that it takes the charm of the book away

2nd book in the series doesn't disappoint. Easy to get lost in with the characters. Full of actiona and romance. Can't wait for the third.
