USA Today best-selling author Liz Gavin, has accomplished much in her short career. Her books have made to #1 and Top Five best-selling ranks in her home country Brazil and others as diverse as Japan, the UK and the US; both in English and Portuguese, collecting 5 and 4-star reviews. Nominated for a Summer Indie Book Award in 2016, and again in 2017, this RWA member constantly seeks new opportunities to improve her craft. This thirst for knowledge propelled Liz to leave the comforts of family and friends in Brazil and move to California to pursue a Master’s degree in late 2015. She lives in sunny SoCal, where she’s researching the writing process, for her thesis, in hopes to figure out why she creates in English instead of her native Portuguese. Liz Gavin writes in contemporary, paranormal, and historical genres. In her sexy stories, one finds smart, independent women, who don’t need rescuing by knights in shining armor, but indulge in steamy action with swoony Alpha males with big hearts. She also writes about women discovering their sexuality and finding happiness in unconventional setups.

Nick was a band member of the Muse of Darkness. He had been with the band for years and the guys were his family. He kept a secret from the band that his family was part of the Irish mafia. The secret was about to come out when Nick fell in love with Angela. Angela’s mother and father were some of the worst parents. To top it all, her father was part of the Italian mafia and they had bad blood with Nick’s family. The two had a long road with so many obstacles to be together. It was interesting seeing how Nick handled his family after years of not having anything to do with them. I was given a copy of the book and voluntarily wrote a review.
This is the fourth and final book in the Muse of Darkness series and this steamy addition is Nick and Angela's story. When Nick meets Angela he falls for her instantly but he has kept a secret for years and when it comes out things take some crazy turns. These two go through a lot to get their happily ever after but in the end it was worth it. This is a well written rock/mafia romance with well developed characters, danger, suspense, steam, and a perfect ending. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.
I enjoyed Nick & Angela’s book. Nick Tennant, the affable guitar hero of Muse of Darkness, has severed ties with his mobster family a lifetime ago. When he meets dazzling Angela, he knows she’s the only woman he wants by his side for the rest of his life. Too bad her father’s goons want to make sure that’s a very short time. This was an intriguing story. And am voluntarily leaving my review.
Really! A 29 year old, dominate man, see a young woman (across the room) and falls for her. Just like that! She kisses him, very inexperienced, and he can’t stop thinking of her. This is after her mother drags her out of the venue. You want someone to take this story as believable?
