"When a cop bares it all for a Mafia princess, more than passion ignites!"

Francesca Donatello has been trying to prove her savvy in her mafia family since she could walk. As a last-ditch effort to win respect in the only legit business the family runs, she's turning their Skin magazine into a real skin magazine -- and that means naked men!

Her first interviewee for the job -- whom she calmly asks to drop his pants -- is truly stunning, in every way. But he's a bit cocky and since there's such a strong attraction between them, Frankie would rather hire anyone else. She made a huge past mistake in mixing business with pleasure and she's not going to do so again.

But a few interviews later, she admits that Reese has the charisma to make her magazine successful and that means burying her feelings for him. What she doesn't know is that she's inviting the enemy into the den, because Reese is an undercover cop.

This is a fun erotica book playing on that classic attraction between the Mafia Don's princess daughter and the cop coming in to bring him down. (In this case, Frankie's father was just murdered, so it's about infiltrating the mob in general.) A slow beginning with awkward dialogue and what felt like forced sexual tension dissipated quickly into a story that I stayed up reading until 1 a.m. I couldn't figure out whodunit and so I couldn't put it down. I've said it before and it's worth repeating -- hot sex with a plot is worth your time. Enjoy!
