My Review:
For Vittoria (Tori) Romano, the clock is ticking until she turns twenty-five and when she’ll be able to get her inheritance in order to leave the town that has brought her so much pain ever since she lost her parents. The Cosa Nostra is run by five powerful families, they all run New York and her stepbrother is willing to do whatever it takes to be part of them. But Tori refuses to be part of the world she grew up in, full of crime and corruption around her. She longs to star a new life, away from her stepbrother. Yet, it’s his greediness where she ultimately pays the price. Who would have thought that by attending a party would turn into her wedding. Tori has heard and seen Angelo Rizzo before, he is feared in the community so she has learned to stay away. Until he develops an interest in her that has Tori worry about her plans and what Angelo might be capable of doing to her. She has been through so much already, but getting to know him she realizes that maybe he is not so bad after all. Maybe the universe had other plans for her.
I absolutely loved reading Tempted by the Devil, Heard did a great job developing the story from beginning to end. The characters were well thought out as well. They might be completely different, but they both grew up among the corruption and crime. While Tori wants to start a new life, she quickly realizes that her fate is in her stepbrother’s hands and she knows that it won’t be long until he marries her off. Angelo never expected to be drawn by someone so much and ever since he met Tori, he’s been wanting to have her. There is no place for love in his world, but when her stepbrother offers her as payment for what he owes, Angelo quickly agrees. He wants to protect her at all costs and soon his whole world turns upside down. I loved the ending, it really fit the characters and I can’t want to read the next books in the series. I would highly recommend checking out this book, you will not regret it! :)
