About the author

For as long as she can remember, Nikki Rose has enjoyed writing stories. For years, writing was just a hobby for this South Carolina native. It was a way to let out all the stories floating around in her head. After one of those stories took on a mind of its own, outgrowing even the parameters of a single book, Rose knew she had to pursue her dream.

Married to her high school sweetheart and best friend, Rose feels she is truly living out a romance story of her very own. As a stay at home mom of two, she is blessed with the time needed to work on her writing career full-time while her kids are at school or in the wee hours while normal people sleep. She considers herself a music-obsessed chocoholic and hopeless romantic who enjoys weaving romance stories with a healthy dose of mystery and suspense.

This picks up right where we left off and all I can say is -
Hold on to your backside

No longer can we easily separate the enemies from the friendlies

Those who felt slighted are given a chance to feel the taste of revenge and our sweet couple seems to be everyone's target

This is one "No" and "wth" moment after another.
This does end on a happy for now

There was a lot happening in this episode
At times I felt it was a bit much- but that could have just been me
This has some darker moments that the first two books.

Wow!!! I absolutely loved every little thing about Mia and Teo!! They had to go through so much to get the happily ever after they so much deserved! I couldn’t get enough of this story! So much was happening but I’m so glad they had each other! I loved that they never gave up on one another! I loved seeing how they both cared and loved each other! They definitely belong together! It was the perfect ending to such a beautiful series!!! ❤️🥰🖤

And sadly we are at the end. This book picks up right where book 2 ends. Take a deep breath bc it doesn’t slow down. These families will rock the world! All three books are filled with heart stopping, action packed, drama, you name it they have it. I just wanted to see if Mia was going to get what she’s fought so hard for and hold onto it. Absolutely phenomenal books!!

Wow! Bravo Nikki on the continuation of this adrenaline fueled adventure. Picking up with Teo's car crash and Mia getting kidnapped...our Mafia King and Queen must go against all odds to get married and have their happily ever after. And the odds are stacked against them.

This book wraps up the series, but don't fret this book ends with hints to a spin off with some of the other characters. In this book the sadistic nature of some past characters will take a turn for the worse and will have you biting your nails in hopes that our heroin will be saved. There is danger lurking around every corner and many challenging obstacles to overcome.

I enjoyed every bit of this nail biting adventure. I am an adrenaline junkie when it comes to mafia romance and this book does not disappoint. There is action from start to finish and the danger levels are raised to an all time high. Mia is put through some really terrible situations. ***Trigger Warnings are definitely needed*** There is abuse, kidnapping, hints of rape and murder. So don't read this book lightly, because it is not for the faint of heart.

Nikki did a wonderful job with this Mafia series. She created a unique storyline with an amazing cast of characters. She put lots of danger and action throughout the books, which draw readers in and holds their attention. The books are hard to put down and I predict other readers will become highly invested in this cast of characters.

I highly recommend this book to all you Mafia romance readers out there. There is tons of control, anger, deception and all consuming love in this series. Just remember my warnings on the Triggers that you will encounter. This book is not to be read as a standalone. You will want to start at the very beginning and work your way through. You don't want to miss anything.

What a fitting conclusion for Teo and Mia. These two have not had an easy journey to say the least and seeing everything finally come together made my heart so happy. Let me be clear this final book was just as brutal as the first two if not more so. These two were fighting an uphill battle from beginning to end and just when you thought they were going to get some peace the mother of all bombshells was dropped. This finale will have you on the edge of your seat the entire read so prepare yourself strap in and hang on tight because we are in for a bumpy ride. This was a fantastic series and I would highly recommend.

I can't believe I finished these books so fast, but the story was fantastic!
So many ups and downs, kept me on the edge of my seat all the time, starting right from where the last book ended the story started strong and I had this feeling of adrenaline all the time until the end, I'm so glad they finally got happiness after everything they had to go through not only to reunite two important families but to celebrate their love that started many years ago.
I loved the ending, made me so happy, honestly, there is no better ending to this story, and a great way to introduce us to a new storyline, definitely made me feel very interested (I'll be waiting (; )

What an intense conclusion to Mia & Teo’s story. These 2 have had a really hard start & some really WTF moments, between kidnappings & a car accident it seemed enemies were determined to keep these 2 f/saying “I do”- in any way possible. And book 3 was packed w/shocking moments that had me holding my breath. Just when I thought everything was good- nope!! Probably the biggest bomb was dropped.
This was another excellent trilogy f/Nikki Rose & will have you biting your nails & holding your breath until the end! Highly recommend it!!

This is the third and concluding part of this phenomenal trilogy. Mia and Teo are finally having their wedding, but their journey is not an easy one to travel, with a kidnapping and a car accident, and someone is determined to tear them apart. This is a well written, perfect conclusion, which is filled with challenges, revelations, suspense, danger, intrigue, action, twists, emotions, and love, which leads to a thrilling and addictive page turner, which had me on tenterhooks throughout.
I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

Teo and Mia!

Well Teo and Mia finally get married but with loss and some good news!These two never seem to be able to fine happiness, from some women saying Teo being father of her baby and then another comes on him in a bar and picture gets sent to Mia right before they get married and even the place where they suppose to get married was vandal and even the girls were pulled over by fake cops.They couldn't even have a rehearsal wedding it was dume.All of the stories are super good and it hard to choose a favorite.

[Tammy · Rating 5 out of 5]

What an action packed read, once you start there will be no way you can put this down. Mia and Teo have fought so hard to be together, everytime they believe they will be together someone or something stops it. Mia is exactly what Teo needs, she is strong enough to stand by his side and rule the families. Absolutely loved reading this series, fell in love with Mia and Teo. Now I can't wait for the next part of this series.

I absolutely loved the ending to Mia and Teo's story. Mia is one strong woman to be put through all she went through to walk away stronger. Even though I wanted to yell at Teo a time or two but he always redeemed himself. He would do anything and everything to keep Mia safe and to get her back. So happy they got their fantastic hea. This was a fantastic series and loved every book. Highly recommend this series.

Mia and Teo's story wraps up with this one. Will they ever get to say "I do"? I was yelling at my book for them to just go to the justice of the peace and get it over with! Andrea strikes again, only this time showing his true colors. I have to give Mia props for how she handled that situation. The story wraps up as it should and where they finally get married at is where it should have been all along. Great story!!

Finally it’s time for Mia and Teo’s wedding. We finally get to have the ceremony and the honeymoon. But hold that thought, someone is still out there threatening the possibility of their happy future together. Who is in the background trying to keep them apart? Will they ever find their happily ever after? I loved it. Can’t wait to see what happens with the others in the series

[Terra Oenning · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wowsa this book is absolutely fantastic and will have you enthralled from the beginning until the end and definitely sitting on the edge of your seat as it's non stop action packed and suspense filled with getting Mia back only to have to deal with more mob families but can Teo and his save Mia in time? There is so much to this book that keeps you hooked and wanting more.

[Sophie Ruthven · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was almost non stop action from cover to cover and I couldn't look away while crossing everything to make sure they got down the aisle.
The author threw in a lot of curveballs so definitely recommend you dive in to see if it was mission success.

[Kim Whitehead · Rating 5 out of 5]

What an exciting series! Filled with so much chaos! Kidnappings, betrayal and long lost love! Awesome!

[Sailja · Rating 3 out of 5]

I really enjoyed the first 2 books, but for some reason, it felt like a lot of the plot in this book was just skimmed over. So much happened but with no real value to them.
