Dynamic Debut!!

I absolutely loved this book! I initially read the title and thought 'a lusty tale' but once I started reading it I was pleasantly surprised.Jordan is a handsome half Italian, half African American who is rich and successful, but lonely. When he sees Macy it is virtually love at first sight. He wants her and he doesn't hesitate making that fact known. His Italian endearments and sex appeal swept me off my feet! The murder of his brother and the ultimate betrayal at the end were just highlights. From the time Jordan and Macy get together until the very last page of the book I was on the edge of my seat. Add the mafia, sibling rivalry and the beautifully depicted scenery and you've got an instant winner.I couldn't put the book down, I wanted to know what was going to happen next so badly.I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to read a good story. I am anxiously awaiting Ms. Arthur's next release as I'm sure it'll be just as intriguing and stimulating as this one was!
