After the daughters of The Black Diamond Mafia are kidnapped, getting them back safely is the main priority. Unfortunately, that begins a chain of events that could very well bring the mafia down to its knees. In part two of this mouth dropping series, you learn that the past isn't always something that stays in its place. With more and more of Kimiko's past butting its way into the present, Sierra and Golden realize that they never really knew the woman that gave birth to them. The problem is, they can't dwell on Kimiko's issues because they both have problems of their own. Sierra knows in her heart that loving a married man is a recipe for disaster and tries to leave Kappo and his drama behind. However, Kappo isn't trying to lose her and lets it be known that he's willing to do anything to prove that. What he didn't count on was his wife having the same feelings in regard to him. Love had never been kind to Golden. It seemed to always make a fool of her and just when she thought Enzo could change that for her, he lets her know that love ain't what he's looking for. That realization doesn't hit her too hard though because Darren left her with problems that she can't seem to solve. Even with him out of her system, he's still causing her to deal with his demons. Natavia and her son seem to have finally found their home. With Mister, things are finally easy for the single mother and she has never seen her son as happy as he has been. Mister is everything that she ever needed in a man, kind, loving, attentive and thuggish to the core. But life has a way of making a happy ended a little harder to achieve and Natavia sees that firsthand. Is there such a thing as Love in the Black Diamond Mafia?

Book Description
“She’s a pretty wildflower destined for my brother's vase. I'll make her mine, even if how I do it will make flowers wilt.” A DARK FRENCH MAFIA ROMANCE Men like us, we see things. We do things, things that make us unfeeling. That's the price of power and money, of living la belle vie and running the French mafia. Then she came along like a pretty wildflower pushing through the cracks on a dirty pavement - fragile yet resilient, a breath of beauty among the filth. She was supposed to be just another job, a nameless person I was to pluck from her life and hand to my brother, nothing but a pawn in the gamble of our diamond business. There's a psychological label for men like us. We lack empathy and guilt. We do things to have what we want, things that make flowers wilt. Note: Diamonds in the Dust is Book 1 of the Diamonds are Forever trilogy and ends on a cliffhanger. Zoe and Maxime's story continues in Diamonds in the Rough (Book 2) and concludes in Diamonds are Forever (Book 3). This dark mafia romance trilogy is part of the Diamond Magnate collection. You don't have to read the other books to follow the story.

American Mafia
Author: Thomas Reppetto
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 1250125596
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 478
Book Description
"Reppetto's book earns its place among the best . . . he brings fresh context to a familiar story worth retelling." —The New York Times Book Review Organized crime—the Italian American kind—has long been a source of popular entertainment and legend. Now Thomas Reppetto provides a balanced history of the Mafia's rise—from the 1880s to the post-WWII era—that is as exciting and readable as it is authoritative. Structuring his narrative around a series of case histories featuring such infamous characters as Lucky Luciano and Al Capone, Reppetto draws on a lifetime of field experience and access to unseen documents to show us a locally grown Mafia. It wasn't until the 1920s, thanks to Prohibition, that the Mafia assumed what we now consider its defining characteristics, especially its octopuslike tendency to infiltrate industry and government. At mid-century the Kefauver Commission declared the Mafia synonymous with Union Siciliana; in the 1960s the FBI finally admitted the Mafia's existence under the name La Cosa Nostra. American Mafia is a fascinating look at America's most compelling criminal subculture from an author who is intimately acquainted with both sides of the street.
