From USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Michelle Heard comes a new STANDALONE, full-length MAFIA ROMANCE novel.

Rosie

To others, Enzo is a ruthless and dangerous underboss, a son of the Falco bloodline. But to me, he’s the one man I can’t stop wanting.
Broody temptation wrapped in tattoos.

There’s a secret I’ve carried for years. At a friend’s club, I set up a date with a stranger to lose my V-card.
No faces. No talking.

Turned out the stranger was Enzo.
He doesn’t know it was me, the girl in the dark who gave him everything, then erased herself like she was never there.

To Enzo, I’m just Rosie, nothing more than a friend and the Cosa Nostra’s hacker.

I’ve been trying to build up the courage to tell him I love him, but I’ve waited too long.
Because when the enemy comes for the Cosa Nostra, I do what I’ve always done, I protect what’s mine…even if it costs me everything.

Enzo

For years, I told myself Rosie was just a friend. Never mine to want, because I chose our friendship over a truth that would’ve changed everything.

Rosie was my heartbeat and now she’s gone.

But I can’t let go.

I’ll tear this world apart to find her.
Nothing and no one will stand in my way of getting what’s mine, and once I have her in my arms, I will make damn sure everyone knows she belongs to me.

While Saved By A God can be read as an interconnected standalone, reading the other books in the Kings Of Mafia series will give you a better understanding of the world and its characters.

My Review:

Saved by a God is Heard’s last book in the Kings of Mafia Series. This friends-to-lovers mafia romance had me hooked from beginning to end. It’s a must-read!

At the beginning of the story we are introduced to Rosellina La Rosa, Rosie, who has been trained all her life to take over her dad as the Cosa Nostra’s IT expert. Since she doesn’t have any older siblings, Rosie will also have to represent her family and become the fifth capo in the Cosa Nostra. Yet, it’s that part of the business that she dreads the most, Rosie is an excellent hacker, but when it comes to dealing with other criminal organizations she feels sick. It’s the violence that makes her uncomfortable. No matter how much her family tells her, it’s her best friend Enzo whose opinion she takes to heart the most. As a friend, Enzo brings her comfort, even though she’s also had a massive crush on him for a very long time. But he’s made it clear that he is not interested in a relationship or damage their friendship. Leaving her no choice, but to lose her virginity to a stranger. Not realizing that that moment would haunt her later. Before she could do anything about it, there is a threat to the Cosa Nostra and Rosie ends up putting her life on the line in order to save those she loves.

As a ruthless underboss, Enzo Falco is too busy protecting the Cosa Nostra as we all his family. He doesn’t have time for a relationship, at least that’s what he keeps telling himself and those around him. But in reality, Enzo has always had feelings for his best friend, Rosie. There is no one else that understands him the way she does and that is the same reason why he can’t pursue a relationship with her. Enzo would hate himself if he ever hurt her. Protecting her and their friendship is what keeps him going. Until the unthinkable happens and her fortress comes under attack. Taking her away from in the process, Enzo vows to do whatever it takes to bring her back home and make her his for good before it’s late.

I can’t believe the Kings of Mafia Series has come to a close. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Saved by a God, it was full of romance and suspense. It’s evident from the very start that Enzo and Rosie are really good friends. Enzo is able to go to Rosie when he needs her the most and vice versa. Everyone around them knows how tight they are, but it’s hard for them to admit the fact that they are in love with each other. Yet, Rosie is also struggling with her role as capo for the Cosa Nostra. She’d rather be behind a computer than be out where the action usually takes Enzo and the rest of the capos. I loved their interactions with the rest of their family members as well. Then an event happens that truly changes their lives forever and Rosie is put in a position where she has to use all that she knows in order to save herself and those around her. I only wish we could’ve gotten more of their relationship towards the end of the story or a years later epilogue would have really concluded their story better. I still loved the series as a whole and would highly recommend checking it out. You will not regret it!:)
