I'm devouring this series like a drug, and I'm addicted. This was a quick read where we get to see our silent and broody Vic fall in love, and it was absolutely amazing. Renee is introduced in this book, and she's the nanny to the children in The Family. She isn't unfamiliar with the Mafia world; her dad is a made man, but still, she fears the bosses, especially the silent man, Vic.
Vic's attention has slid towards the beautiful nanny plenty of times, but he knows she's off-limits for many reasons. And he's taken an oath; protect the bosses. No distraction. Nothing. So when Renee is attacked in her own home and is sent to live with Nixon, that oath is threatened. She's everywhere and his need to protect her increase by the minute. She unhinges him.
I adored Vic; he was such a loyal man but conflicted when it came to his feelings for Renee and the oath. Renee was such a great match for him, although she was scared of the bosses, and at first of Vic, she knew this world and still wanted Vic as much as he wanted her.
I've fallen in love with almost every man in this series, yes kind of also with Andrei and that man is truly sick. RVD has delivered excellence through these books, and I would seriously recommend this series.
