Her decision to choose me has deadly consequences.

The alliance that gave me my bride is over. I couldn’t trust her family, and now they have vowed to come after me… after us.

The division among the top mafia families is mounting, as they must choose between two feuding organizations. The conflicts leave us vulnerable to a dangerous enemy. One that could bring us all down.

Everything I worked so hard for is in jeopardy, but I have to keep Luciana safe at all costs.

If we run I’ll lose everything, but even worse, if we stay I could lose her.

Sacrifices are inevitable, but the wrong decisions could destroy us both.

Will my queen stand beside me, or will she finally cave to the pressure of this savage life, and escape my world once and for all?

Continue with the Sold to The Mafia Boss saga. This dark and addicting series can’t be missed. Start at the beginning with Ruthless Saints to see how it all begins.

The books in this series should be read in this order:

Ruthless Saints

Her Heartless King

His Broken Queen

“But for the record, even if I did let you go, I’d make you wear an ankle monitor.”

Romero and Luciana had one of the most interesting and intense journey's I've ever been on and I couldn't get enough. This book was non-stop action and revelations and alliances. The strength of their relationship was once again tested through violence and familial ties, but once again The Bilottis showed they're strong and solid. I loved seeing Romero have this emotional sensitive side, yes real mafia men do shed tears and that hit me right in the chest. Ella, you had my heart POUNDING! I'm so looking forward to what you have in store for "my" Gio 😍 and for Rocco.

Romero & Luciana #3

This was an unnecessary book. Majority of this book was just the same conversation over and over which was boring. There were still plenty of mistakes.. wrong words, misspellings, changing POVs mid sentence or page.

Add that to there was no conclusion with Aria. Or Vincent. Or the future of Romano's business. Or Lu's jerkface aunt.

I will not be reading Rocco's or Gio's books... because Rocco was a two dimensional character and I dont care enough about him to read it.. and I'm not reading Gio's because the lack of an actual ending for this one pissed me off and burned any interest i had.

The much awaited third book in this wonderful series, great characters and scenario

This is a simply wonderful read I cannot tell you how wonderful it was to see Luciana and Marcello have finally settled down in their wedding and home life and since he rescued her from her cousin who had drugged and kidnapped her they had started to be far happier.

Marcello knows that he could not bear to loose his beautiful wife she has such a kind heart and those that know her fall in love with her kindness and her gentle soul and she has finally started to come into her own learning how to cook with her friend and housekeeper that has become like a mother to Luciana.

Who would have believed on the first real birthday celebration she has had since her parents died that the most unimaginable crime would be committed in their home and that her life would once be fractured and her happiness would again begin to shatter.

She loves her husband so much and she knows that she cannot change him and yet she dreams of the possible change he could go legit and yet she knows this is an impossibility. Marcello on the other hand fears that she could walk away and leave him and yet he has no reason to believe this.

Read this simply fantastic story and I guarantee that you will love this wonderful story.

I assure you that you will love every moment of this book it is simply a fantastic read.

I received an Advanced Reader Copy and am voluntarily reviewing it. I have read all three books in this series and I still want more. Romero and Luciana weaseled their way into my heart. If you have been keeping up, Book Two ended with Romero rescuing Lu from her family. A lot of things came out that could change things for everyone. Book Three opens with a birthday party for Luciana at the club. Romero surprises her by inviting Sandro and Rocco to the party. Vincent is a bit of a wild card. All of the head mafia families in are as influx. Things are changing and no one knows who will be on top in the end.

Unfortunately, we do lose a beloved member of the family and everyone takes it hard, especially Luciana. This should be off limits so finding the person that did this is of utmost importance to Romero and Gio. Whoever did this must be dealt with. Romero takes Luciana to Italy. They needed a break. There he meets with a family friend who looked out for Gio and Romero when they were in Italy. This friend has a proposition for Romero. Unfortunately, Romero has no choice but take the deal with the things that are happening now. He knows Luciana will be disappointed. Is she ready for this life? Romero is even deeper in this world than before.

I know we will continue to get more in Gio's story. I want more now. I loved these two. I adore Ella's writing and plan to continue to read her books.

Book 3 starts up 2 months later w/Romero & Luciana still dealing w/the fallout f/her family. This was a good conclusion, but I’m left w/so many unanswered questions. I would’ve liked an update on what happened to Vincent & who helped him- it wasn’t mentioned who his accomplice was, & where things stood w/her uncle. Also I didn’t feel like there was any conclusive information about her aunt- what was her fate. I’m also a little curious about Romero’s new dealings w/Janero.
Luciana started to grow on me in this book, but she was still naive, & reckless w/her decisions. She never listens or learns, & runs into danger, putting others in danger too. I was glad however to see her & Romero’s marriage becoming stronger & their bond was definitely deeper. I loved how protective, devoted & caring Romero was of her. He didn’t put up w/anyone disrespecting her, & it showed when he fired Aria! I was waiting for that moment, but I was also expecting more drama f/her to come, but it didn’t.
I’m looking forward to checking out more of Ella’s books! I really enjoy his series & I’m so curious about Gio & his story. I still have a few unanswered questions that I’m hoping get answered in the following books!

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of "HIS BROKEN QUEEN" I thoroughly enjoyed this conclusion to this story it pulls you right in full of action, intrigue, kidnapping, danger, steam, sacrifices, suspense, surprisesm twists you didn't see coming.
Luciana chosing Romero has deadly consequences the alliance he had is over now they vow to come after them both two feuding top Mafia Families leave them vulnerable to dangoys enemies one that could take them all down.
Romero everything he has is in jeopardy but he has to do everything in his power to keep Luciano safe if they run they lose everything if they stay he could lose her sacrifices are inevitable but wrong decisions could destroy them both.
I definitely recommend to get this excellent well written story when something unimaginable happens in Romero & Lucian's home to shatter her life once again will this be when she decides she's had enough & can't live this life you must get this book to see what happens.
I'm so looking forward to "Gio & Rocci's" story these awsome characters make you want more of them. AWESOME READ YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS GETTING 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

The last book of Romero and Luciana! Someone breaks into their home and kills Stella on Luciana's birthday. Romero then takes Luciana and they stay at his condo that he shares with Gio while they figure out who would come into his home and kill an innocent person. While the investigation is going on they find out that Rocco is their brother!! Also someone shots Romero!

While on lockdown, Romero, Luciana and Gio take a trip to Italy. They meet with the Italian mob boss who tells Romero that it is now time to take over their city. He tells him that he will help but wants Romero to laundry money at him club, which he did not want to do but ends up agreeing to.

After they arrive back home, Luciana is leered back to the house and she is met there by Vincent who tried to kill her but she fight back. Romero ends up saving her and beats up Vincent. He decides not to kill him because thats Rocco's brother and tells Rocco to deal with it. Also Vincent was the one that killed Stella, so sad.

I loved this series of book and I can not wait to read about Gio!!!.

The continuing story of Romero and Luciana and the author does not disappoint.
Someone is gunning for him and his wife and Romero will do anything…and I mean anything…to keep his Luciana, his Queen, his love, safe by any means necessary. Luciana is standing by her husband, for better or worse, but how much worse can she take especially when her dreams of them walking away from the mafia business may not become a reality.
The perfect addition to this series and I LOVED seeing both Romero and Luciana again….their dedication, support and love for one another….LOVED IT! The steam….oh the dirty Romero, his possessive dom towards Luciana….sizzle sizzle HOT….but also the vulnerable side that he only allows Luciana to see….swoon swoon swoon. And the best part…no one disrespects his wife…EVER….and not suffer consequences…..LOVED IT!!

By the third installment, Luciana should be more adjusted and aware of the mafia life but she continues to have head stuck in the sand. It is still hard to believe that she was that sheltered or she chose to ignore it all because she can't be bothered. She is studying to be a lawyer but is not sharp enough to be pick up the cues of mafia life especially when her life is in danger. Romero grows as a character but continues to excuse Luciana's behavior as her being sheltered. Just when there's growth in her character, she reverts back to being really naive. The plot is good and it is nice to see that the solution is not so simple.

My adoration of Romero and Luciana has only grown with every new book. I love that they changed each other in the best ways and were able to make something beautiful of their “arrangement.”
Yet, there were some times that I wanted to shake some sense into Lu! Could she really be that naïve?! Apparently, yes she can. After the life she was brought up in, she still managed to have a sweet, trusting nature. Foolish? Absolutely! But also endearing.
I liked the way things came along with the revelation about Rocco and how Romero handled it. I can appreciate how difficult it was for him to let him in.
I was over the moon to learn that both Gio and Rocco will be getting their own books!!!.

Oh Ella Jade - you do that voodoo you do so well, I am always here for your stories!
This is an emotional tour-de-force with the continuation of Marcello and Luciana's story. They've found a home settled down with the traumas in the past, but with knowing their lives will never be normal. The way Marcello loves his wife is just breathtaking - why don't real men love us that way?

My heart crunched a little when it was Luciana's birthday celebration, I mean that poor girl - I loved her in Ruthless Saints and she's grown so much here.
There are the required betrayals, dangers and attempted murders, but nothing trumps the love story that really and truly shines through here!.

In the aftermath of the confrontation that led to secrets being revealed, Romero and Luci are rocked by the loss of someone close to them. Heading off to Italy, they take some much needed time away from the chaos to come back together as a more secure couple. But the calm doesn’t last long as the recent revelations create an uproar and families are targeted one by one. A shocking betrayal culminates in a heart shattering conclusion to the Torrio and Bilotti alliance. With these actions only one question remains. WIll the alliance stay in place or have the actions of a few destroyed the only thing keeping these families one step from an all out war?

It takes off right from book 2, and Luc and Romeo get into a lot of heated discussions, are kidnapped, and have some juicy action chapters that get you wanting more to read from this book. Also, I thought this was her last book nope does a 360 and ends to get you to read for the next book... I think I cried and got mad since I thought it was the last one until I left with that chapter... why. but.. I... what am I going to read now. i guess reread and make sure got the other characters in check and just read again their juicy toxic relationship! Loved it.

Wham Bam, and His Broken Queen did indeed tie up Romero and Luciana’s story in a BIG way!
The suspense, intrigue, emotion, passion, twists, was off the charts and I enjoyed every minute detail of this third book in the series which was another finely written Mafia extravaganza as much as it was a continuation of their steamy love story. YES, and there was an HFN…?
I cannot wait for his brother Gio’s book, man about town that he is it’s about time for a female take down of that one!

Highly recommended.

His Broken Queen is the last book in a trio featuring Luciana and Romero. Having overcome betrayal and separation, Luciana is now forced to confront life as a mobsters wife. With Romero determined to rule, will their relationship stand under the ultimate pressure?

Packed full of angst and spice - His Broken Queen was a fitting finale to Luciana and Romero’s story. I felt each character showed huge personal growth across these books - and I felt the evolution of their relationship was relatable and realistic. A worthy read for all you Mafia Romance fans out there.

This is Book 3 in the Sold to the Mafia Series by this author. It is the final installment to the steamy mafia romance between Luciana and Romero. There is no denying the sizzling chemistry and strong connection between these two fierce and intriguing souls Their love story ends with more drama and angst, action and adventure, danger and suspense, sexual tension and chemistry, and engaging secondary characters to keep the reader interested. Seriously entertaining.

This is the third book in the Sold to the Mafia Boss series. I enjoyed the story of Lucia and Romero. Their storyline is smoothly written and easy to read. Ok in their story there is enough suspense, action, drama, betrayal, not to mention the steamy and hot scenes in between those. And also surprises, just when you think you know which way their story is going, it suddenly takes another direction and twist, where your attention remains glued to the book. This book is definitely recommended.

Series: 4 ⭐️
His Broken Queen: 3 ⭐️
Plot: 3 ⭐️
Character Development: 2 ⭐️

Liked seeing the family’s come together in a way. I’m intrigued to see the relationship between Gio and Cinzia. I’m glad Luciana has Sam back. Romero character development in this series is solid.

The reason why I gave this book three stars.
Luciana character development is lacking. Rocco switching sides seems bizarre. Why introduce Sandro if his character didn’t help the plot? The baby argument was not necessary and boring.

The conclusion to Romero and Luciana story is filled with drama, action, betrayal and steam. Romero and LucianaI have amazing chemistry. While I really enjoyed the story, I wished that Luciana had a little more character growth. I know she was sheltered from the mafia life, but now is the time to step up and become the queen that Romero needs. Otherwise this was a really great conclusion and i look forward to more from this world.

Will she remain his queen?

This is book three in the Sold to the Mafia Boss series and can not be read as a standalone. Be sure to read Ruthless Saints and Her Heartless King before reading this book. Romero and Luciana have been through a lot, including the fact that Luciana betrayed Romero right after they were married. There is so much bad blood between her family and his that they may never be able to make it together. Will Luciana be able to survive their brutal world and become Romero's queen or will everything they have fought for fall apart?

Luciana and Romero's love story continues. Their love is put to the test more and more but Lu wont give it up on them. Lu also doesnt listen and is always putting herself in danger and it makes Romero crazy. She sees her best friend lying dead in her house and Romero is livid thinking he put both in danger. This ending journey for them is a great story ending. This mafia family's story though hopefully will continue with his brother Gio and his new found brother Rocco. Cant wait.

A satisfactory end to a great series!

I liked this series end but I loved the two books that built up to it were much more. I felt the author might’ve run out of steam with the final instalment yet there was so much material to massage a much richer experience in this book. The Italian links alone could’ve made for some intense and high octane chapters. That’s not to say that the book was bad, it definitely wasn’t bad but I was way more invested with book 1 and 2. I have, however, enjoyed this author and want to read more by her.

Wow, did that have me on the edge of my seat!!! Luciana and Romero's story concludes in true Mafia style, with plenty of danger, violence, twists, sizzling passion, betrayal and more. Both main characters have gone through so much throughout this trilogy and grown a lot. Will the alliance between their families stay or has it been destroyed for good to start a full on war?... Can Romero keep Luciana safe despite everything that's happening around them?...

This is the 3rd book in this incredible series, and the division between mafia families is mounting. Romero is determined to keep Luciana safe and protected at all times.
This is a well written story which is a dark, action packed, mafia romance, with emotions, family, sacrifices, suspense, intrigue, emotions, tension, off the chart’s chemistry, and love, which leads to an entertaining, twisted, tragic, haunting, and steamy addictive page turner.
