Summary:

Greed. Ambition. Violence. Those are the “values” Olivia Rashidi learned from her Russian mob family-and the values she must leave behind for the sake of her daughter. When she meets Cillian O’Malley, she recognizes the red flag of his family name . . . yet she still can’t stop herself from seeing the smoldering, tortured man. To save her family, Olivia sets out to discover Cillian’s own secrets, but the real revelation is how fast-and how hard-she’s falling for him.

Plagued by a violent past, Cillian is more vulnerable than anyone realizes. Anyone except Olivia, whose beauty, compassion, and pride have him at “hello,” even if she’s more inclined to say good-bye to an O’Malley. While his proposal of sex with no strings seems simple, what he feels for her isn’t, especially after he learns that she belongs to a rival crime family. Cillian knows that there is no escape from the life, but Olivia may be worth trying-and dying-for . . .

My Thoughts:

This is Cillian and Olivia’s story. Also really interesting, and I enjoyed it, although book 2 is still my favorite of the series.

I loved him turning from playboy to serious contender, and being so open to Olivia for whatever she needed. I felt for Olivia and her daughter, and loved the angle she brought to the story.

This one felt like the highest stakes out of the 3 books so far, and it was captivating! I breezed through this book in 1 evening, and enjoyed it a lot. I also really liked how we wrapped the Russian mob family back into the story.

Twisted Secrets by Katee Robert is book 3 in the O’Malley’s Series.

Read worthy.
