⭐⭐⭐⭐
Steamy workplace romance!
Aldo is a steamy, mafia workplace romance. Aldo is second in command to the Casino’s owner and has carved a life that exists around work and not much else. Violet has run into some bad luck when her boyfriend steals all her money and possessions and hears of openings in the casino and lands a job as a waitress there. The chemistry between the two is evident from their first meeting and Aldo finds himself going out of his way to help her and find ways to come into contact with her.
I really loved how they danced around each other in the beginning and as the tension between them built up. This was a lovely romance and although there were angsty elements and a bit of danger, overall it’s a sweet romance. One of my favorite things in romances is when you get to see the hero caretaking the heroine after something has happened, and we get to see that in Aldo multiple times.
One thing I couldn’t figure out is Violet’s age or background. It’s possible I missed it somehow along the way, but I don’t recall any mention of her family, nor why she has no friends other than her one backstabbing friend, and I never could figure out her age. I kept wondering about this throughout the entire book. However, I still really enjoyed it, read it in one sitting and absolutely plan on reading the second book in this duet – which will be about Roman, the casino’s owner. Rating this one 3.5 stars.

New York Times/WSJ/USAT International bestselling author Melanie Moreland, lives a happy and content life in a quiet area of Ontario with her beloved husband of thirty-plus years and their rescue cat, Amber. Nothing means more to her than her friends and family, and she cherishes every moment spent with them.
While seriously addicted to coffee, and highly challenged with all things computer-related and technical, she relishes baking, cooking, and trying new recipes for people to sample. She loves to throw dinner parties, and also enjoys traveling, here and abroad, but finds coming home is always the best part of any trip.
Melanie loves stories, especially paired with a good wine, and enjoys skydiving (free falling over a fleck of dust) extreme snowboarding (falling downstairs), and piloting her own helicopter (tripping over her own feet.) She’s learned happily-ever-afters, even bumpy ones, are all in how you tell the story.
