I’m not typically a fan of those ‘hot mess’ type of characters because I really struggle to make sense of their thoughts and reasonings behind their actions.
During that introduction, Christian appears mysterious, intriguing, and oh-so-attractive in a dark, dangerous way while Gianna – honestly – comes across as, well, a hot mess. In the first book, The Sweetest Oblivion, we are introduced briefly to both Christian and Gianna. Ok, I’m going to be completely honest here and say that of the three books currently released in this incredible mafia romance series, I left The Maddest Obsession until last to read because of the heroine. She’s chaos embodied, not his type, and married, but none of that can stop his eyes from following her wherever she goes.Īll along, she doesn’t even know that she’s his-his frustration, his fascination. Nowhere in Christian’s plans had he ever prepared for Gianna. She hates him-his stone-cold demeanor, his arrogance and too-perceptive eye-but over the years, even as their games consist of insulting each other’s looks and intelligence, she begins to live to play with him. One winter night and their lives intertwine. With a proclivity for order and the number three, he’s never been tempted to veer off course. Christian Allister has always followed the life plan he’d envisioned in his youth, beneath the harsh lights of a frigid, damp cell. In the New York underworld, others know him as a hustler, a killer, his nature as cold as the heart of ice in his chest. Most see a paragon of morality a special agent upholding the law. Little do most know it’s just a sparkly disguise, there to hide one panic attack at a time. She laughs too loudly, eats without decorum, and mixes up most sayings in the book. Unfortunately, a Russian winter is the coldest of them all, and Mila soon learns the only way to escape intact is to do the impossible and thaw her captor’s heart.Her dresses are too tight, her heels too tall. But it doesn’t take long for his caress to become a rough grasp muffling her screams. One with unexplained wealth, tattoos on his hands, and secrets in his eyes. She never expected to fall for a man on the way. Suffocated by the rules and unanswered questions, Mila does what she’s always wanted to.
Not about her papa’s absences or his refusal to let her set foot in her birthplace-Russia.
Having always done what is expected of her, Mila dresses the part, only dates college boys with exemplary backgrounds, and doesn’t ask questions. She refrained from telling her it would be literally while Mila ran for her life. "A fortune teller once told Mila she’d find a man who would take her breath away.
