A made man, a boss, a cheat-even measured against mafia standards. In the murky waters of New York’s underworld, Elena’s sister is arranged to marry Nicolas Russo. They say first impressions are everything. Now, all she can see in the mirror’s reflection is blood staining her hands like crimson paint. She’s the favored daughter, the perfect mafia principessa. Nicknamed Sweet Abelli for her docile nature, Elena smiles on cue and has a charming response for everything. She’s a romantic at heart, living in the most unromantic of worlds. Nico is set to marry Elena’s sister in an arranged married he agreed to with her father, but when he meets his bride to be, it’s Elena and her glares that catch his eye. Adding this one to my list of favorite mafia romances. I love a forbidden fruit trope The Sweetest Oblivion did it right with tons of sexual tension between Elena and Nico. Holly hell! The chemistry between these two was perfect.
