Reign is the third book in the Larussio Legacy series. I would recommend reading the previous books to get the backstory.
This story starts off with a fast pace and keeps it up the whole way through. It is full of action, danger, drama, suspense, and of course romance. Serena is finally understanding what it means to be connected to Gio’s family and she makes a decision that she thinks will help protect her own family, but ends up leading her into even more danger. I enjoyed the strength of Serena’s character -she’s smart, spirited, and she can defend herself.
Overall, it’s a good read that will keep you entertained.

Reign is the third book in The Larussio Legacy series by Via Mari. This is a fantastic romantic suspense series and this book builds on the previous two- there is a lot going for this story, starting with the mafia, then adding of drama, suspense, action, danger, sizzle, romance, a little mystery, and a dose of angst- all wonderfully carried by a really superb cast of characters.
As I have mentioned many times now, I have read all of Via Mari’s books now and have loved them all. So, having said that, I really did have high expectations for this story- especially since the other two are soooo good- so I am happy to say that Via Mari definitely didn’t let me down- as this is every bit as good, if not better than the previous two. I was glued to the pages from the start, entirely invested in the characters and the outcome of the story- especially more so having met Gio and Serena in the previous book/s. I tore my way through the pages, devouring the story- and entirely engrossed the entire time.
As with her other books, there is plenty of suspense woven through the storyline- the tension in parts is quite palpable and had me on the edge of my seat clamouring to know how it all played out.
I can’t wait to see what she does next!
Thank you, Via Mari!

The third installment in Larussio’s, Gio’s and Serena’s, the story continues. Serena is still in turmoil at what transpired and is now wanting and pleading with the don to kill all who threaten Gio. Not realizing what she has done, she will now have to prove her loyalty to the family. Things will escalate, which will lead to Serena leaving everyone behind. More and new threats lay in wait for everyone! They want one thing and one thing only…Serena and will stop at NOTHING to gain her~ More firepower and forces will join the ranks to protect everyone and everything they hold dear and power over. This is one confrontation that will finally unite many Families together! All enemies will know not to mess with ANY of these Families or their families and friends. You will want to pick up Via’s newest release that continues the stories of the Families from past series…it is riveting, action-packed, steamy, full of surprises, tenderness, and epic love stories! You can actually feel the love between the characters because Via makes them so true-to-life! I received this as an ARC and am leaving a voluntary review.

Reign is book three in the Larussio Legacy series by Via Mari. I'm really getting back into the submissive genre and Via Mari’s stories are masterclass. The characters wholeheartedly their lifestyles and very existence with no apologies given. They own their attitudes and it truly is a privilege to read about them. Reign is intensely sensual, darkly passionate, maddeningly entertaining. A reader is taken on a wild ride of danger, passion and delight. And it is a ride you never want to end. A highly addictive read and an irresistible cast makes for a top quality story that will leave a beautiful and arousing lasting impression. 5 stars

Five big gold stars. I honestly haven’t enjoyed a series as much as this, especially with a mafia theme. I could not get enough of Serena and Giovanni. It was so awesome to watch these two grow through the books, and the way the author wrote them was perfect in its own.

Reign is the third book in the Larussio Legacy series. As with books one and two (Rule and Rise), the reader is quickly consumed by Serena and Giovanni’s story. Espionage, plot twists, insatiable heat and more abound within the pages. I truly enjoyed this series and highly recommend it.

Gio and Serena continue to have issues regarding her security, but his orders/actions go a long way to Nonna doing a one-eighty regarding the Family. This has been a suspenseful, intense, and emotion-filled series. I highly recommend it.

OMG loved this book! Serene the firecracker really comes out in this one!
Absolutely love how others from the Via Mari's books are in this book!

5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book Reign (The Larussio Legacy Book 3) by Via Mari, It is a romance story that includes suspense, danger, passion, and steamy romance. I love the characters of Giovanni Larussio and Serena Morett. Serena is a strong, intelligent, and independent woman. She has fallen for Giovanni however doesn’t always follow the rules to keep her safe. She is coming to realize just what falling for a future mob boss means. Giovanni is a man who is totally in love with Serena. There is no doubt in his mind that she is his. He is determined to keep her safe, even when she at times makes decisions that make her a greater target. What does the future hold for Serena and Giovanni? Read this book to find out. This is a story that had me turning pages wondering what was going to happen next. It is also a story that has steamy romantic scenes that will make the temperature in the room rise. Reading this series, I have grown to care about Giovanni and Serena. They are a couple who deserve to have happiness. I also enjoy reading about many of the additional characters who are friends and relatives of Giovanni and Serena. I have read many books by this author and I have always looked forward to the next book that she writes. She has a wonderful way of making you feel the emotions of the characters and making them come alive on the pages. Don’t miss out on an amazing story that you will not be able to put down until you have read the final page. I highly recommend this book and the series.

and..She did it again! When I tell you you need to pick up all of the series that are associated with these characters I'm not kidding. Too much history and characters tightly woven together to miss out on the whole of these stories.
I loved this one as much as I loved the rest, I picked it up planning to just get it started and then ended up not doing anything I had planned because I had to finish it. Again, I was on the edge of my seat because you truly didn't know what was coming on the next page. There was a definite heat factor between Gio and Serena, but that wasn't the main focus and I appreciated that. I loved Serena’s strength and her determination to be heard in this book. She was a definite handful and that made for some smiles mixed in with the drama and the danger that was surrounding her. I think my favorite part was the family aspect of this story, dysfunctional in many ways but in the end family, acceptance, and forgiveness prevailed. This happening was awesome to watch play out.
There are so many more stories you can see happening while reading this book and I can not wait to read every one of them. I am totally invested in this whole series and it is an absolute must read. This author has a way of weaving her words and these stories where they just grab a hold of you and hang on.
I LOVED it and can not wait for more, I'm a definite forever fan of this author!

This is the 3rd book in the series, it can be read as a standalone, but take it from me, I read this book first and missed out on a lot of detail and the formation of relationships. I got the gist of it, but I wish I would have read the others first, I will now have to go back and read them since the series is definitely worth it. I love reading romance within the Italian mob style books and this one was awesome. I loved all the drama, action, romance and crazy that this story had to offer. Serena and Giovanni are a great couple, I really enjoyed seeing them interact together. Serena is independent and strong willed and Gio has never had that in a woman, especially in his line of work. Serena will do anything to keep her family and Gio safe, so she assumes the best option is to leave them all to lure the kidnappers to come after her. I love that Gio will stop at nothing to keep her safe and protects her from everything, and how his family also loves her so much as to protect her like one of their own. I thought Serena would annoy me and be more like a needy damsel in distress type, but she is the opposite and her ramblings are just funny to read. I really can’t wait to see what comes next, it looks like there may be a little something going on with Salvatore and a certain nurse? I can only hope!

Reign is the 3rd instalment in the Larussio Legacy series by Via Mari. This book is not intended to be read as a stand-alone and the series should be read in order. I first discovered Via Mari’s excellent writing with the first book in the Billionaire Bodyguards series and have been a huge fan ever since.
Via Mari has a great skill for writing dominant alpha males and Gio is a prime example of this. He is totally dominant in the bedroom and an ultimate alpha male out of the bedroom. He loves fiercely and is insanely loyal both. I absolutely adore Gio. Serena is perfect for Gio in every way. She is totally submissive in the bedroom but is sassy, feisty and far from submissive outside of the bedroom. She is so not scared to say exactly what she is thinking.
This book is extremely fast paced and is filled with so much drama. As a high up member of the mafia, Gio has many enemies and they want to hurt him in the hardest way and that is by taking his woman. Serena is in constant danger and Via Mari does a fantastic job of keeping the reader gripped to this story. There is constantly something going on that keeps you on your toes.
I love that you also get to be reacquainted with those from her other series as the characters are all interlinked. Cannot wait to see what alpha males and submissive women that Via Mari brings to life for us readers next.

I simply loved the second book Rise in the Larussio Legacy series. We have betrayal, Love, deceit, and a twist or two. I simply loved the plot and the characters are amazing.
Giovanni Larussio is the future don of the most powerful crime family in Italy when his great uncle steps down. He is a man who could sway great forces that work in the world, he and his cousins are known for their ruthlessness in crushing enemies.
While he is the head of the largest casino in Vegas, the lust to reign Serena Moretti can impact his foes to bring him down. Can he protect Serena from his enemies?
Serena Moretti’s, is Gio’s submissive and the love of his life, is exposed to the dangers of being with the future mafia boss really means for her and her family, leaving her with firsthand experience of just how horrific rivals of the Larussios can be if she chooses a life with a man who will soon be in charge of the most revered mafia families in the world.
Will Serena stay with Gio or leave? Will they have a happily ever after or will Gio’s enemies destroy their lives? Can they overcome the obstacles thrown at them?
I simply loved this story/series and can’t wait to Reign the next book in this series and I want to see more of Go and Serena.

Reign The Larussio Legacy by Via Mari (Goodreads Author) was a thrilling 5 star read.
We continue with this edge of your seat series and I couldn’t stop until I was done.
Giovanni and Serena pull you right into their story. Serena is struggling with putting her family in danger by being with Gio. Because of some of her choices Gio and his team struggle to keep her safe. After a dangerous twist she finally gets it and realizes her place is with Gio.
Can Gio keep Serena and her family safe? Will her nonna ever accept her love for Gio?
Overall this was a great read. There are several twists and turns. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story. I did however have some frustration with Serena and some of her early decisions, but she finally got it. We get steamy moments, action, suspense and so much more. If you're looking for a great series that pulls you right in I highly suggest this one. 1-click and get started today.

This is the 3rd book in the Larussio Legecy series. It is the continued story of Giovanni who is the next in line to become don of the Italian Mafia and Serena who is a airline waitress. This book is full of action and romance. Even though there is a strong dominant male character in Giovanni, I like that fact that Serena is also a strong and determined character that keeps Giovanni on his toes.
There relationship is strong and passionate with a dom/submissive element but with all the protocols in a mafia family and the fact that just being with Giovanni puts her life and that of her families in danger it causes Serena to run.
But with all of the Larussio's enemy's looking for her as a way to hurt Giovanni has she made the wrong decision and played straight into their hands? Will she see that Giovanni's love for her will over rule any protocol set by his family or will Giovanni's commitment to his family and their way of life push Serena away for good.

This is another fantastic book by Author Via Mari. It is the 3 rd book in the series. And I will say, it is absolutely my favorite series. This is about Serena and Giovanni. Serena was raised to hate and fear all Larussio's. And when she meets Gio who is supposed to be the next Don of his Mafia family, there were sparks right away. This book is full of action, and keeps you on the edge of your seat. The characters in this series you will not forget. Serena loves Gio, but her nonna and her brothers hate all Larussio's. Serena leaves because her loving Gio, puts her family in danger. Serena figures out that he will protect her and her family no matter what. And that her love for Gio, outweighs everything else.. Serena figures out she is pregnant and Gio asks her to marry him. Serena agrees.
Serena calls her nonna and she tells Serena that Gio will do anything to protect her and her family. And nonna sees how much Gio loves her,
so she finally gives Serena her blessing. After she gets chewed out for running away first. They head to Vegas and boy all he** breaks loose. There are biker gangs everywhere and the word got out Mancini is going to have Serena taken. The action and suspense is off the charts. And believe me the sexy scenes will melt your Kindle!!!
I cried reading the epilogue. The characters in all of Via's books were there. It talked about everyone of them. Knowing these awesome characters got their happy ever after, brought me to tears. Maybe even Nonna has found someone to love!!
I highly recommend this book!!!

I loved this book. I have read all of this author’s books, they just keep getting better and better. I loved how each of her books built on the previous one. This is the third book in this series and I highly suggest reading the previous books in the series to help enhance your enjoyment of this series. This is a well written story that is written with heart and soul. The characters made the story pop off the pages as they bring their lives to life. In this story we get to see Giovanni and Serena. Giovanni is the next in line to take over the casino and resort. Serena is also the love of his life. He must learn that life has challenges and throw you curveballs even if they mean life and death. What happens in this story you will need to read but you don’t want to miss it. I highly recommend this book and this author.

Reign is the third book in The Larussio Legacy series from Via Mari. I would personally recommend that you read all the previous books and in order before diving into this one, as this is a continuation well from them. We find Gio and Serena are still struggling with her security and the usual difficulties that accompany the mafia family. I personally enjoy mafia romance novels and this happens to be at the top of my list for favs in the genre. I love the suspense that Via Mari builds and even more the added romance and steam is enough to keep my fanning myself the whole time. Via really does a great job of including sexy scenes but not going to that point of porn or unbelievable stuff which I really enjoy. I am excited to see what we will get in the next installment. I am sure there will be even more intrigue and suspense mixed with the right amount of sass and sexy times.

Reign (The Larussio Legacy Book 3) by Via Mari. Words can't express how much I love Via Mari's books. Each one I read is better than the last. This was no different. This is the story of Serena Morett who is strong, independent, smart and has a strong will. Giovanni Larussio is a infamous mob boss and he is totally and completely in love with Serena. Serena is finding out how hard it is to be in a relationship with a mob boss and the danger it brings into her life. Serena's family doesn't like Gio at all because they know what he's all about. When Gio finds out the rival Mancini's are plotting to kidnap Serena, Gio promises to do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Serena being hard headed and not wanting Gio to boss her around can cause her to get into trouble. Will Gio be able to protect Serena from danger? Will they have their happily ever after. Read Reign Book 3 to find out!

Reign is the third book in The Larussio Legacy series by Via Mari. I have read each book in this series and this one did not disappoint. Giovanni Larussio and his love interest Serena Moretti, are beginning to see what their life will be like when Giovanni becomes the new don of Italy. Rivals of the family will target anything or anyone that is important to Giovanni. Serena is trying to figure out if the jeopardy of her family will be worth being with him. I have loved reading Giovanni and Serena’s relationship evolve over the novels. This story in particular they are sure they want to be with each other, Giovanni thinks she is the love of her life, but they are trying to figure out if the risk is worth the reward. The mafia lifestyle is an intense world and I give Giovanni a lot of credit for trying to balance his family’s history and his own interests.

Reign is the third book in The Larussio Legacy series. I highly recommend reading the first two books as the story will make more sense of what is happening in this book. I have never read Via Mari and say that I did not like it. Mari takes her time and builds the plot of the book in such a way that you will love the series. Her stories have so much detail that you think you are right there with the characters. Her characters really bring the story to life. They are complex and interactive. I felt like I was friends with Serena and could feel exactly what she was feeling and doing in this book. This book is Giovanni and Serena’s story. Giovanni is the next in line to become a mob crime family. Serena is the love of Giovanni’s heart. I highly recommend this story to find out about Giovanni and Serena’s relationship and other exciting things that are on around them.

Reign by Via Mari a sublime five-star read. This is number three in the Larussio Legacy series and they can all be read as stand-alone, but I have to admit I have loved the series, its deep, seductive and dashing with some amazing characters wrapped into it. Giovanni is such a strong character; he just has this manner about him that sucks you in and doesn’t want to spit you out until he’s ready and not before. The building of the story is some of the best I have ever come across it’s a slow burn, but not too slow, the timing is just perfect to unravel the story so the reign is long, steady, evenly paced and dropping at just the right time. This story will bring you to your knees, do not miss this series as it is sublime.

Reign by Via Mari is the third book in the Larussio Legacy series. I would recommend reading this series in order so you can fully understand what is happening in the story.
This book is an absolutely fantastic addition to the series. It has everything in that you come to expect from this author and is also a gripping and intriguing story. I was drawn straight back into these characters as if I had only just put the second book down. Gio and Serena are brilliant together, their chemistry is undeniable!
The author has really built this story up over the 3 books well and I really enjoyed this one! I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. This is another amazing book by and truly incredible author.

Reign is the third book in Via Mari’s Larussio Legacy series. I think I have read everything she has written and I love how her different universes co-exist and that we meet up with old ‘friends’ again and again. Reign is the next step in Gio and Serena’s story! Via piles on the suspense and danger mixed with passion and steamy romance! She has such a way with painting the picture so that at times you bite your nails and need a fan to cool yourself off! Serena is as independent as ever and deep in love with Gio. Gio as dominant as one can get and over his head in love with her and he is determined to keep her safe! I wonder what comes next as you can just see so much that still needs to be told!

Reign (The Larussio Legacy Book 3) by Via Mari is a great romance story that is so much more. I have loved this spin off series and the original series where it all started. As soon as I see a new book from Via I know I need to grab it and I am never disappointed. It is an action-packed tale where the alpha men love hard and want nothing more than to love and be loved by their women. Unfortunately, because they are rich or part of a mafia they are always under attack in some way and they and their highly competent security teams manage to keep all safe. I also love the cast of characters who intertwine from book to book and series to series. If you love hot and steamy with lots of action, then you need to hop right in and be prepared to be wowed.

I’m a lover of all things Mafia style when it comes to books, and I really enjoyed this one. Giovanni is being primed to take over as the Dom of Italy, but with Serena by his side, will he be able fulfill that duty? He wants to protect her at all times. These two show such love and compassion for each other even when the craziness of the world is upon them. And don’t get me started on their chemistry! Absolutely sizzling! When someone threatens Serena, Giovanni will do anything to protect her. I loved Serena’s character as she at times was submissive, and at others a real spitfire! And Giovanni is all alpha, delicious male!! This story has many twists and turns and will keep you on the edge of your seat throughout. I highly recommend this book!

This book was awesome! I have read a few books by this author and i have loved every one of them and this one is no different. The books just keep getting better and i am here for it! This is the 3rd book in the series and i would recommend reading this series in order to the best reading experience possible. This story was well written and the main characters made the story that much better. Giovanni and Serena were great. They made my heart hurt and soar. They had so many challenges and i loved watching them overcome everyone of them. I am looking forward to reading more by this author and i would recommend this to anyone that loves romance!
