Ruthless Guardian by Sienna Cross
4.0
It’s the turn of the next generation from Kings of Temptation with Ruthless Guardian as mafia princess Isabella Valentino, daughter of Luca and Stella and heir to the King’s throne fights her family for some vestige of freedom, something they’re not happy to yield on considering the repeated attempts on her life. But when the chance of a medical internship in Italy comes up, there’s no way she’s going to miss out even if it means a new guard in the shape of brooding Raffaele Ferrara.
If you’re a fan of forced proximity, forbidden bodyguard romances as Raf is forced to spend the sultry summer months in an apartment in Rome with the protectee he lusts after you won’t want to miss this book. Laden with sizzling heat, action, and intrigue as Raf’s past came back to haunt him with Isa the means to an end. The romance was slowburn but the heat between the hero and heroine was palpable as Raf struggled to keep his hands off Isa. The overall story had plenty of suspense as the attempts on the Isa’s life increased. With a fabulous cast of secondary characters, I loved Isa’s relationships with her cousins, and I’m especially intrigued by the Rossi twins, I can’t wait to read more from the Ruthless Heirs series.
