Bound by Temptation by Cora Reilly
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I really liked the story of Lily and Romero. Toward the end I did not see how they were going to make it, especially after the wedding to Benito was allowed to happen. I was in disbelief when she said “I do,” honestly. I sighed in relief when Luca decided to allow war rather than exact harsh punishment on Lily and/or Romero. I’m not interested in books without an HEA, so I am very satisfied that Lily finally got hers. She tried to do the “right thing” and “do her duty,” but just couldn’t stomach the life she would be subjected to at the hands of Benito, especially knowing that Romero, and her happiness, were out there.
Looking forward to the next book in the series, as usual!

Romero has always ignored Lily’s flirting. Her age and status made her off-limits but even someone as dutiful as him has only so much control. Wanting her when she’s supposed to marry another man could mean war between New York and the Chicago Outfit, and Romero has always put the Famiglia first. Lily suspects her sisters and Romero would risk everything for her, but is her happiness worth that much? Is love worth a war between the New York Famiglia and the Chicago Outfit?
