the o'malley series continues with undercover attraction. as do the political mind games between the three boston mob families and the feds and dmitri romanov. aiden is the acting head of the o'malleys and he's determined to set a trap for romanov. but everything is a delicate game. a deadly game, because one wrong move can get people killed.aiden underestimates the danger he's courting to trap dmitri. and as much as he is trying to save his sister, keira, he's going about it all wrong. charlie and aiden's story is perfectly fine, i liked it. they had good chemistry and i'm glad they figured out what they wanted. charlie is the one person who is able to see who aiden is deep down. and as ruthless as he is, he cares deeply for his family. he cares deeply for charlie. and he's trying to do the right thing for everyone.
but, here's the thing, and this was true in sloan's book too. keira and dmitri, the dance they're doing is the most interesting thing about this story. she is so broken. she's like a baby bird with clipped wings that won't fly. and dmitri is lethal. he might be the cat determined to eat the bird. but he also might be the one thing that saves her. the one thing that sets her free. and i'm absolutely dying to read their story. it has to be next. there's no one else left, and all roads lead to this one story.
i can't wait.

Scandal. Wealth. Power. Seduction. Welcome to the world of the O'Malleys.
Ex-cop Charlotte Finch used to think there was a clear line between right and wrong. Then her fellow officers betrayed her, and the world is no longer so black and white. Especially when it's Aiden O'Malley, one of the most dangerous men in Boston, who offers her a chance for justice. The only catch: she'll have to pretend to be his fiancée for his plan to work.
Aiden can't afford to let anyone see the man behind the mask. To run the O'Malley empire, he has to be cool and controlled at all times. But the moment he meets Charlie, they're playing with fire. Her slightest touch is enough to send him over the edge. At first, their "engagement" was a way to eliminate his enemies. Now he'll do whatever it takes to keep her safe-- even if he has to destroy his own family to do it.
EXCERPT
“Come on.” Aidan stepped back and took her hand. “I have something to show you.”
He led the way up the back stairs and through a door she hadn’t explored yet. Charlie’s breath caught in her throat at the sight of candles flickering on a table laid out with a bottle of wine, two glasses, and a whole spread of Chinese takeout.
She let go of his hand and wandered over to peer into the boxes. “How did you know that crispy pork belly was my favorite?” Just like that, the pieces clicked together. She snapped her fingers. “You had your sister feel me out?” She’d thought Kiera had been asking about her favorite food so they could pick a local place next time they ventured out of the house. “Shady. Very shady.”
“I am a mob boss, after all.” He came around the table and poured them both a glass of wine. “I have it on good authority that this cab pairs well with Chinese takeout.”
“How classy of you.” It was like stepping into another realm of existence as she sat down and accepted the glass of wine while he filled two plates. When Aiden had said that he wanted a dinner date with her, she’d assumed that meant dressing to the nines and going out somewhere fancy. She said as much.
He snorted. “Eating out always serves a purpose. Either you’re making a point, or ensuring you’re seen by someone specific, or conducting a business meeting. We’ve been making points and playing parts since we met. I’d like to try something new—having a relaxing conversation. Just me and you, Aiden and Charlie, not the leader of the O’Malley clan and the former-cop-turned-fake-fiancée.”
“Do you think that’s even possible?” Such a short time together, and it was clear they both had a boatload of issues. It was easy enough to ignore when they were banging each other’s brains out or pretending to be something they weren’t, but holding down a conversation without those masks in place? She wasn’t sure it was a good idea.
Because I already like him.
