These two certainly know how to write, and they did it again with this one!

Katiya and Marco are the ultimate forbidden romance, with so much angst, and chemistry off the charts. I loved the banter exchanged back and forth, and felt the build-up of sexual tension between them was perfect.

Katiya's fiery spirit, her sassy attitude and her ability to drive Marco wild was amazing. And when they do finally cave to their desires they are explosive.

I loved this instalment, and continue to love this Medici world. There is plenty of drama, some amazing steam, and loveable characters, and can't wait for Enzo and Valentina's story... I wonder what the boys will say about this one??
