The fourth book in the 'Born in Blood Mafia Chronicles' series, 'Bound in Temptation' is the story of Liliana and Romero. If you've read the books in this series in order, you probably remember Lily as Aria and Gianna's younger sister. You probably also remember the crush that she's always had on Romero, the older soldier that is Aria's bodyguard and one of Luca's most trusted men.Liliana is growing up and is no longer the child that Romero remembers. Despite his best attempts, he can no longer

“You only have this one life, Lily. Make the best of it. I wish I had done it and now it’s too late. I don’t want you to end like me, to look back at a life full of missed opportunities and lost dreams. Don’t let life pass you by. You are braver than me, brave enough to fight for your happiness.” 5 "Cosa Nostra First " stars!!!Liliana, the third wheel in her family, always the third best, always the one who suffer, always the one who sacrifice. Not long ago she was sweet and innocent

Fans of this series are well aware of young Lilianna’s crush on her sister’s bodyguard, Romero. Romero is Luca’s solider, any relationship with him is totally unacceptable. "Somehow I knew he was the one, the person I was meant to be with. I'd known it pretty much from the beginning. If there was something like fate, this was it." Lily faces a lot of loss in this book and finds that as the years go by her crush is no longer one sided. ”Where had the blushing, flirting girl gone?” Romero

You can preorder it on Amazon !!!And you can also pre-order it on iTunes!

[reread: 12/12/2021] Lily and Romero are the best couple in this series.and Liliana is the superior Scuderi sister, too. so with as much disrespect as possible fuck Aria and Gianna. me watching Lily and Romero: me watching Mateo and Gianna: me watching Luca and Aria: and sorry, no, i will not comment further😗

I’d hoped I could marry for love now that my sisters had already been married off for tactical reasons.“Gianna and I married for political reasons. Why should Lily not be allowed to marry someone she wants?” And I'm done with this series. I cannot take this any longer. How come that everyone suddenly turned so stupid? Like with the hope she'll be able to marry for love. Who could have even thought that after reading more than a page about their father? They all say how cruel he is and then they

3 Refusal to Conform Stars ⭐Bound by Temptation surprised me in a good, but also in a disappointing way. I have been looking forward to Liliana and Romero’s story since I started this series. Because who falls in love at the tender age of 14 and gets her wish? It’s so damn romantic.Somehow I knew he was the one, the person I was meant to be with. I’d known it pretty much from the beginning. If there was something like fate, then this was it.We knew this was never going to be an easy love match.

*A 4 these are all Romero's Nutella jars* Temptation is a dangerous emotion,lust, passion and desperation are just the first stages of it. My what stages they are but when the games you play are about to end temptation is the place where the story only just beganLiliana Scudari had seen it all. Watched both her sisters get married to men whom they didn't want, ruthlessness of the mafia world but all that hate and destruction young Liliana had already given up her heart to a soldier cause when

So this book was...Ohhhh men...this series...I was so excited about Liliana and Romero's story and I couldn't fall asleep until I finished it...and now I'm out of words because they had such a beautiful story that was very different from the other in this series. What can I say? I'm a sucker for forbidden love :PShe has to marry for status...he's just a soldier.She's loved him for years...he just starts to see her as a woman.He's everything she ever wanted...she's everything he should stay away

So I am not at all interested in Lolita 2.0(yikes 😑)But Romero is killing me with curiosity 😍 so yeah 😋 that's about it

I've spent the last day and half thinking of how to do this review and words escape me. It's been an incredible journey watching Lily grow up and her unwavering feelings towards Romero. Picture being told all your life your duty towards your family, sheltered from loving who you want or their position. My heart crumbled a thousand folds during the epic tale. Cora Reilly kept me on the edge of my seat guessing, "saying no...no and hell no! Five star fabulous read and highly recommended. This is o...

Scuderi sisters know better!!!Viva la New York Famiglia!!!Chicago Outfit just sucks!!! I will explain you right away what i mean with the above sentences...All of them were born in blood, but New York's mobsters are more humanly creatures... They protect their people... Yes, they are killing too, but when it's absolutely necessary!!! Who am i kidding??? Hahaha... The Chicago outfit in every new book just give me reasons to hate them more than the previous books!!! And especially, Rocco Scuder

2.5 StarsLe sigh. I just can't seem to make this series work me. I want it so bad. Maybe too bad lol. I've said after books two and three that I wouldn't continue...and yet here we are. I have no idea why. I've been so in the mood for some mafia awesomeness the last couple months and these feel thisclose to being great. But, alas, I think I am calling it quits on this series - for REAL this time. I have no interest in the blurb for the next book and the book after that sounds like a rehashing of...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨4.25 starsThis book holds a special place in my heart among Cora Reilly Mafia books. It’s so sweet. It’s like fifteen percent friends-to-lovers/high school romance vibes and eighty-five percent mafia romance. Lily (18) is so adorable, but she really grew up from the previous books. I liked that she had her mother as kind of an excuse for her actions so they weren’t too selfish, which is a pet-peeve of mine in mafia romance. It’s like you know that you will probably be married off to som...

3 Liked It StarsThis one started off pretty good and then it just kind of sizzled out for me. I think I liked the other three in this series so much because it was enemies to lovers/forced marriage which is one of my favorite things to read about. Lily has always been a big flirt and since she was a teenager she always had this huge crush on Romero. Romero is only a solider. He will never be good enough to marry Lily in her fathers eyes. Lily was very bold letting Romero know that she wanted him...

3.75 “You are worth a war” stars 🌟 “Nobody will take you away from me. I’ll fight a million wars if it means I can keep you.” This is Lily's story, who has been in love with Romero from the moment she first saw him when she was fourteen. Romero has always ignored Lily’s flirting because her age and status made her off-limits to him.“Lily, don’t make me into a hero that I’m not. I’m not kind or nice.”“You are to me.” This is the sweetest book of the series so far, and very different from th...

I enjoyed this series so far as a whole, but this book didn't work for me, and I gave up at 50%. Romero is a mafia soldier, who's job is to protect Aria (from the first book). Lily is Aria's youngest sister. Here's how it went:Lily watches Romero in the shower.Lily pounces on Romero, Romero rejects her.Lily pounces on Romero, Romero rejects her.Lily pounces on Romero, Romero rejects her.Lily watches Romero in the shower.Lily pounces on Romero, Romero rejects her.Lily pounces on Romero, Romero re...

If you read the previous book, you know about Liliana's crush on Romero. Romero used to think, she was a little girl but in this book, we see Romero started to notice Liliana as a woman. Besides Liliana also changes. She is not the little girl protected by her sisters. She is alone, she saw her mother slowly drift to death, her father pressuring her little brother to become a made man. She is extremely lonely and having a hard time to accept everything.Liliana is sent to her sisters for a visit

Loving ⭐️ Finally, something different! I mean, i was getting a little bit tired of those forced loveless marriages.Thankfully, Liliana & Romero’s story is a loving one. It wasn’t easy for them, but at least there were true feelings and passion. Plus, there was that forbidden type of love that made it worth it.Liliana, Aria and Gianna’s little sister became infatuated with Romero soooooo long ago. Once she became of age, he couldn’t ignore her anymore, so they started a secret affair during one

Mixed feelings on this one.If I'm being honest I don't think I actually intended to read this book, after being disappointed with 'Hatred' I waited for the reviews to come out on 'Temptation' and they were very mixed so I'd more or less decided to give up on this series but lately I've been re-reading a lot of my old favourites which included 'Honor' and 'Duty' and I'd forgotten just how good these books are so having decided to continue on I skimmed 'Hatred' to get me up to date.Firstly I have
