5 AMAZING STARS !


I knew from the moment I picked up this book, that it would consume me, and it did. J.M. Darhower kept me on the edge of my seat. The Galante & Barsanti families, once friends but now are enemies, because of a tragic incident that happened 16 years ago.

 The only good Barsanti is a dead Barsanti.” All her life Genna Galante grew up hearing those words from her father, Primo Galante, the notorious boss of the Galante crime family. Being his only daughter she is under constant watch by him and her brother Dante.

Matteo Barsanti (Matty) The oldest son of Roberto Barsanti a mafia crime boss. Matty was born into a world that he doesn't want anything to do with, but is expected to follow in his fathers footsteps.

It had to be fate that brought Matty and Genna together, a chance encounter with each other and Sparks fly between them from the beginning. The relationship between Gena and Matty is intense they both know what is at risk, their lives, but they can't stay away from each other. This book is intense, I was so into the story that at times I had to stop and take a deep breath. You feel the hatred between the two families, you end up not knowing which side to take. Dante, Genna's brother and Enzo, Matty's brother play a huge part in the story. Both of these men have taken the oath of their fathers and believe in fighting to the death for their family. Caught between this is Matty and Genna.

You had me," she whispered, cheeks flushing at the reminder. "I did," he agreed. "But the past isn't what matters. I live in the present, Genna. I live in the now. I had you, yeah, but what I want is to have you.”  Matty By Any Other Name


I love that J.M. Darhower is able to bring new and refreshing spin on the mafia story line.
