***THIS STANDALONE LOVE TRIANGLE, IS BEST ENJOYED WHEN YOU DON'T READ ANY REVIEWS OR SPOILERS BEFOREHAND. GOING IN WITH AN OPEN MIND IS BEST.***
(Book 3 features Rayden and better understood after reading Book 1)
"Sometimes the wrong choices take us to the right places."
My Past: I was eighteen when I first gave away my heart. A love so profound, I didn't understand it.
My Present: I never had to prove she was mine until he makes an appearance. Tall, dark, and older.
My Future: Should I walk away and not look back or stay and this time, let destiny guide my heart.
Note: Triggers - Contains MM/MFM scenes. While each book is a standalone, the Serendipity series has a crossover of characters and might be enjoyable if read in order.
I'm not a cliched romance writer. I write plot-driven, mindfuck stories. I'm not afraid to push boundaries (check Intoxication, Infallible and Duality) I write steam like I shower - scalding.
Wow, what the fuck? Did that just happen, and holy shit, Wow!!!!! I am sitting here with such a book hangover. Infallible is heartbreaking and beautiful and touched my heart and soul. It’s one of a kind and the best book so far in the series. Technically a standalone, I recommend reading the first two books and have a better understanding of Rayden and Zena’s history.
I apologize ahead of time. I am writing this review with my emotions all over the place. I love a good love triangle. And this book checks off all the boxes plus more. On a quick note, this book is not for everyone. And this is okay. There are dark undertones with some .graphic scenes. My biggest suggestion, you guessed it. Go in blind and have an open mind.
The book is written between past and present over nine years. We vaguely know small details about Zena and Rayden from previous books; now we read about their history, what happened and how Lorenzo is tied to these two.
Lorenzo is the alpha, bad guy, a made man in his family. Capo next in line to be the Don. Yes, my friends, you know it, it’s the Italian mafia, and I’m picky. Charlene did a fantastic job. First, he is ruthless, fierce, and very protective of his loved ones in his life and doesn’t cross him. He is a feared man. Second, He is gorgeous and has a softer side that dusted off my ovaries and swoon over him; Seriously, I fell in love with him.
My Rayden, we read the man in the last two books, now we read about the cocky innocent 18 years old turned into the man and further growth of this caring, broken, alpha, handsome man.
Zena is a beautiful young woman torn between two men. She didn’t have the best upbringing. She overcame it, made her more resilient, and became who she is today.
The web, some of them that weaved, is a trickery sloop. Be prepared; I was pissed several times, cried, swoon, and damn those sex scenes, one in Particular hot as hell. There are no many twists in turns, and I think I may have whiplash; I enjoyed every second of it. But more important is the love so deep that it hurts your soul in this book. I love the authors writing style, and she draws you in from the beginning. We read some cameos of past characters that we love and now add some new ones. Remo, that guy is going to be a fan favorite. I can’t say enough good things about this book and highly recommend it.
The beginning of the book was an interesting read, but it didn't get any better when the author turned a mafia don into a weakling, and then it became comical. My praise for the book was ready to soar until I encountered a curveball that forced me to suspend my disbelief.
This book turned into a joke, as I could never understand how a supposedly Mafia (Lorenzo) went from a stone killer, to a gullible, love-sucking fool in a matter of seconds.
Where do they do that though?
It was a nuanced account of the mafia experience that calls for an equally nuanced response.
I think the author forgot the theme of this book because I don't understand how a narrative describes the man as this murderous, unforgiving brute, and then suddenly he is smitten by a teenage boy who basically worked at his club and wasn't hired just because he made a Negroni.
A few moments later (Rayden) witnessed Lorenzo murder a man without flinching, and the deed was discovered. This is where the story lost its true essence. After witnessing a crime, Lorenzo kidnapped Rayden and Zena, a filler character who was basically a bot, and kept them in his mansion like guests.
The author inability to show how one can lose their life after witnessing a murder and botch escape makes for an laughable, eye rolling read because the sudden insta lust and 360 character turn around doesn't really address that these two knuckleheads (Rayden and Zena) should feared a supposedly killer/mafia Dan.
The man is, after all, an inhumane killer, according to the author, but in reality he is a wimp. With a weak plot and character development that is kind of flat, this is a messy book. Motives are rarely explained properly and themes are rarely explored fully.
A considerable amount of intrigue is lacking within this novel. Furthermore, the subplots involving the mafia edge didn't lift the story enough to keep things going.
This novel was not elevated significantly due to its weak plot and unclear direction. Although there were promising elements, the book became unsatisfying to read due to its lack of forward movement.
This book left me so moved, with a breathlessness from sheer happiness realized on a windy path to true love grounded in patience and unconditional acceptance. The path is soul-searing, but with growth, overcoming emotional hardship and personal insecurity, two souls find their way to fulfilling love. In his life's trail, Rayden meets his first love, Zena, suffers her lost, falls in love anew with someone who chooses another, only to find out his first love is still alive. Within this journey, Rayden and Zen encounter the charismatic, Italian kingpin of New York, Lorenzo of the Rossi Mafia family. This is a love triangle where soulmates find their perfect love.
Rayden's witnessing an event he should not have results in his and Zena being held by Rossi mafia for one month's time. And the fiery, sinful, and ruthless Lorenzo is more than they could imagine, putting a test to their relationship, with Zena in the middle. There is dominance, power exchange, age-gap Daddy Dom and explosive chemistry in this affair. This is one of the most steamy books I have ever read.
Zena, spirited, sometimes uncharitable; Rayden, alpha innocence wrapped in bold assertiveness; and Lorenzo, ruthless, mafia leader whose ferocity, prowess and sexy dirty talk strike both cords of fear and arousal.
He looked like a man who'd fuck a woman until she passed out, resuscitate her, and fuck until she passed out again, just because he could.
Yet Lorenzo also showed softness and strength with whispered sweet endearments seducing the senses and feelings.
This is a slow burn, full immersion into the lives and motivations of the endearing and caustic characters of all age groups, backgrounds, and cultures. Experience the cut-throat mafia lifestyle but also observe an intimacy with brother Remo, friend Dario, and business associate Zayne (from Incognito). Revisit those strong family ties with the Princeton family, including steadfast father Drake Princeton, his wife Sianna (Rayden's former love), sister, aunt and uncle, grandparents, cousin, and best friend. Oh, and there is a baby.
This plot follows a present to past to present, but no undue back and forth that tests one's memory or feels jarring. The storyline transpires very fluidly almost as if it begins in the past and simply arrives naturally to the present. A twist, which I would qualify as a change in plot line, a technique common to this author, changes one's perception of past events and creates a heart-felt outlook for the future. However, stylistically the issue is that it is not rendered along the lines of a traditional sets of clues, e.g. foreshadowing, nuggets of information, which would steer the reader to that aha realization, that mind twist the reader was remiss in picking up on. Instead, while not completely absent of hints, the story simply changed course and elements were added in to explain the new direction. This was a bit of unnatural twist raising questions as to the relevance to some prior events to the current. Still though, I loved the story, with the best outcome I could have hoped for.
Would you wait for your true love for nine years? Give your life's soul mate time to grow, being available for him yet freeing that person time and time again simply out of love's generosity despite the pull on your being. The story demonstrated with bittersweetness that with true love giving one's heart but not demanding anything in return is what it's all about.
There are two promises I can keep..to mend your broken heart...to show you what it means to love again. Forever. That's how long I'll love you, even if you can't.
This is story about unconditional, all-consuming, true love. And what a moving, intimate adventure it was.
Note: this review took everything out of me (I'm not usually this fanciful LOL), especially withholding any kind of spoiler. It was a deeply emotional read.
“Have a good life and take care of what will always be mine. Maybe we’ll meet again, one day.� It’s just amazing book! This story is unique and so beautiful, the characters are explosive together! It’s worth the reading.
Omg!! What an awesome and heartwarming story! Explosive and over the top passion! The twists and turns, the chaos and finally admitting the truth! My goodness I feel like I’ve ran a marathon! So sensual! Phenomenal story!!
This book was 100% unexpected, but I loved every single moment of it. I have read the two prior books in this series and since meeting Rayden I have been dying for his story and Infallible was so much more than I could have ever expected for him. This can also be read as a complete standalone, but I HIGHLY recommend reading the two previous books to get the full picture.
This book isn’t for everyone. There are elements in the story that may be a trigger for some and this is an age gap love triangle with kidnapping and the mafia.
Infallible is a story that you just need to read for yourself and go in with an open mind. It is hard to write a review because I truly don’t want to ruin anything about the story itself. It is steamy, it is emotional, and it took a turn that I did not see coming but completely loved!
Rayden, Zena and Lorenzo completely sucked me in with their story and their journey. They all frustrated me at times and all made me fall in love. There is no shortage of chemistry throughout the story, but there is also loss, pain and heartbreak.
If you’re looking for an age gap, love triangle, mafia romance this is one to check out.
Infallible is a steamy hot story that is full of so many twists and turns that at times you are not sure in which direction you are heading. A story torn between the past and the present gives way to what can only be described as a complex and intense love story. The characters and the storyline will at times have you dangling on the edge not sure whether you will be kept safe or if the floor will drop from beneath your feet. As you are pushed and pulled your mind will be reeling with who will be the winners in this epic love story. Revelations will be huge and the passion will be electric as the chemistry ignites between them. A story that is guaranteed to have you gripped right to the very end.
Rayden, Zena and Lorenzo have quite the love triangle. Rayden loves hard but he falls harder. Lorenzo has years of practiced calm but Zena brings them both to their knees. This storyline has many twist and turns but it doesn’t leave out the betrayal and love that keeps these three going. Excellent writing. Spectacular storyline.
Infallible is the third book in the Serendipity series. Most readers expected it to be the second book following Intoxication, but I now understand why we had to wait....
Infallible blew my mind away. Just when you thought the story is going a certain way, Charlene blows your mind with her twists and turns that she is so good at.
This book was full of feels. The emotion, the love, the chemistry, I felt all of it as I read the book. And don't get me started on all the tropes covered in this book!
Rayden, Lorenzo and Zena are characters that were written brilliantly, all 3 pulls at your heartstrings and you can't help but fall in love with all of them.
Characters from the previous 2 books also makes a brief appearance.
Charlene is a phenomenal writer, the queen of love triangles and plot twists. She is definitely a force to be reckoned with and as long as she continues writing, I'll be her biggest fan.
WARNING: This book will keep you up well past your bedtime! Seriously, it is a five espresso book hangover warning, this is not a drill!
“Live every moment to its fullest because it might not be there tomorrow. Someone who loves you is truly a rare find and if you find that person, then that's the one for you. You have to hold onto that hand no matter what and no matter who it belongs to.�
Infallible by Charlene Namdhari kept me entertained and glued to the book the entire story. The book begins with young Zena and Rayden. Young Rayden witnesses something he shouldn’t and it changes Zena and his life forever. Lorenzo Rossi is one of the top players in his mafia family. Lorenzo surprises the reader with his reaction to Zena and Rayden throughout the book. Lorenzo Rossi is a fresh new character that I could not get enough of. He is the character with a very dark, dark, older presence you love but also love to hate.
I loved that I couldn’t predict what would happen next in Infallible. Honestly, once I was sure I had the ending figured out another plot twist would happen or characters would return out of nowhere. The imagination and creativity that went into the storyline and plot is phenomenal. The characters also teach the reader about what it truly means to love in a way that is not only unique but refreshing. Also, the way Infallible is told is unique because it jumps from past, present, and years in between. However, it is not at all confusing because Charlene makes sure to make it clear where you are within the story’s timeline.
Infallible was more than just an erotic romance. Don’t get me wrong, the sex scenes in this book were truly indescribable and I enjoyed every detail (I would recommend the book for the spicy scenes alone). However, I feel like the book taught me a lesson; it is days later and I am still thinking about the book and what the characters endured for love.
Overall, I recommend this book to anyone not afraid to read about unique sexual situations, a twisted plot, a dark storyline, and mafia romance. Love cannot be contained, restricted, or kept at bay.
MM MF MFM.....What's your preference? Charlene Namdhari was a new to me author I found earlier this year and I binge read both books in this series. I was quite excited to hear we were getting Rayden's story next and Charlene did not disappoint. This story had me totally engrossed and it was nothing like I expected. Kidnapping, forced proximity, lust, love, hate, betrayal, mafia, violence, revenge acceptance, family and so much more all came together to make this story one that had me totally consumed and unable to stop thinking about it after finishing reading it.
I was captivated with these characters. Right from the start there was something about Renz and Rayden that made you sit up and take notice and I will admit it now....I did not like Zena, however as the story progressed the intensity of the chemistry between the characters just got stronger and the steamy scenes became more frequent and scorching hott. The secondary characters all added greatly to the tale, providing balance and support and in some cases much needed hilarity and they helped to move the story forward.
This novel will take you on an emotional roller coaster ride and you will feel it all. You will laugh, cry, swoon, gasp, sweat and even fall in love. This author writes in a way that touches your emotions and makes you fall on love with her words and her characters. I absolutely loved this well written page - turner. It was a fantastic tale and a top read for me. Worthy of a 5 star status, I would highly recommend it to romance lovers.
The very definition of INFALLIBLE is being incapable of making mistakes, unable to error, or be wrong. This exemplifies the very story I read in so many ways. What is right, can’t be wrong...right!
The story involves and revolves around 3 very different characters. A dark and brooding mafia man, a young and naive student, and the woman that seems to connect and \ or sever them all. A chance encounter turns three worlds upside down. Truths, secrets, and lies of omission are their foundations.
Love is definitely unexplainable in this story. It defies all odds. It defines everything.
While I don’t want to give anything away, I’ll state with absolute certainty and heartfelt belief that this story will capture your book heart. This author broke me, in good ways and bad. She delivers a storyline I didn’t anticipate, but one that seeped into my soul. Be open to reading without judgment or expectations. You’ll walk away with an extraordinary experience. Simply an exceptional book!
Charlene displays the all consuming LOVE banner in its rainbow glory. There's a love triangle but all three involved love each other with fierce passion. The equation may change from devotion to dominance in some couplings, but the intensity of love remains unchanged. Zena is the mixologist in a trendy upscale bar - Serpente in nyc and is silently enamored by dark & dangerous - Lorenzo Rossi. He's the Capo of Italian mafia and is entrenched deep into murder & mayhem branch of it. In walks sweet, unsuspecting Rayden, who has grown up emotionally since we met him in . Having lost his love once, he is latched firmly onto Zena now What he witnesses becomes the catalyst of their Fate for a month to come in Lorenzo's estate. The story zips through hearts with enough fire burning a path of smashed dreams and devastating truths. Charlene spares no details when it comes to sex. Her scenes are scorching hot. But more than that the sentiments speak big throughout the story. The twists are unexpected and left my mouth gaping. Great read, a veritable heaven for mafia readers. 4 stars for Jar..Din Follow me on: 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻
Unsure how to rate/review this one.( Ill update my review later.)
I just want to start by saying.....I wanted to slap all the 3 main characters!!!
For MM Lovers - Nothing intimate occurs between the 2 guys until Chapter 37 🙄 (there are 53 chapters)!!!!!
Prior to that its 99% MF, with poor Rayden waiting on the sidelines like a kicked puppy patiently waiting for Zena's scraps of affection. 😕 felt like the Ren n Zen Show.
Ren and Zen really shoved things in poor Rayden's face, don't think either deserved him. Both were very manipulative/calculating people pretty much throughout the book. I think with all said and done, the MM love angle was weak. I mean 9 years...for Ren n Ray to finally be together. 😑
I didn't hate this book, but didn't love it either. 10/10 for the cover 🔥🔥🔥
INCREDIBLE ! A MUST READ ! Waou I didn't expect the 3rd book to be soooooo INTENSE. I think like everyone who red the serie, we were ardently waiting for Rayden's story, but after finishing this book I'm speechless, still swooning. It's one hell of a lovestory, and it's been a long time since I was moved like this, I must say I still need to process. I don't want to spoil, but must say that you won't encounter often a man like Lorenzo. With his tough exterior of mafia Don, a huge heart lives inside. Rayden is hard to crack, suffered a lot in his young life and cannot trust again, each time it's been a boomerang. But Lorenzo didn't fail to show him his "infaillible" love and commitment. And their chemistry is off the chart. Charlene did a exceptional job with her words, she archieved to translate emotions like no others. And I can't express the hotness of the book, OMG, out of this world, I had to fan myself. I was in love with Drake in Intoxication but my heart just melt for Lorenzo. So Yeah, read this book because you won't manage to put it down and don't want it to end either. A HUGE BRAVO, again the words are not strong enough to explain the magnitude of this book.
If you are looking for a book with all the feels then this is your book! A kidnapping, Mafia Lord, Innocent Love, Lust, Betrayal, a surprise pregnancy and more.
This book had it all! There were seriously so many “O. M. G. Moments”that you just don’t see coming, it keeps you fully engaged.
Lorenzo, Zena and Rayden are all strong characters that I connected with but Lorenzo and Rayden�. *Fans self* they had chemistry for days! I’m not going to go into the story line because this book you simply have to read for yourself to appreciate it all! It’s a book about so much and touches on so many different subjects but especially “Love is Love�.
The sudden plot twists that you don’t see coming are amazing, I had to take a minute just to take it in. This was an intense read that had me jaw dropping and sweating throughout this book. Just when you think you know where the story is heading it throws a curve ball that throws you right off track. It was AMAZING!
This author continues to delight me with her in-depth writing, her imagination for stories packed full of twists that I never see coming and her wonderful charismatic characters that I can't help but love. This is book three in the Serendipity series and is a love triangle between Rayden, Lorenzo and Zena.
All the characters were fantastic with the chemistry between them all igniting the page. I am always overwhelmed by the amount of twists and turns this author writes into her stories and not in a bad way, she keeps me on the edge of my seat and drops the biggest of surprises in the plot that I never saw coming not for one minute. My mouth was agape so many times!
Rayden is a lover, not a fighter and his heart rules his head. Lorenzo is the dark, moody dangerous Mafia boss that everyone fears and Zena is the lady who both men are obsessed with. Three's a crowd they say and nothing could be more accurate in this story. The sex was so hot and yet so beautifully written too.
With all the different personalities, plots galore, raw, gritty, bloody goings-on and emotions that seeped from every pore, this all made for a fantastic read that I couldn't put down. The ending was the biggest surprise of all, so unexpected and that is what this author does so well. The whole series has been a phenomenal joy to experience and I look forward to reading further books from this author.
The beginning of the description about this book has the author warning us to go in with an open mind, and truer words were never spoken because if I had known what I was getting myself into beforehand, I probably wouldn't have picked it up & would have missed out big time so yeah, please do the same (and I hope you're not reading this review because that will mean that you're going in blindly). There's a lot going on in these pages with a love triangle that really had me on the edge of my seat since I wasn't sure how it was all going to go, especially with the mafia involved. I do know there were more than a scene or two that tried to short circuit my kindle from the insane hotness so have some water handy for real. There are also all kinds of twists, mafia action, drama, and that whole push & pull of a triangle so truly, you don't want to start this one before bed because you won't be sleeping until you devoured every last page! So yeah, that's enough of that & I'll just end with HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDING TO ALL THE OPEN MINDS!
This may be one of the hardest reviews to do when there is so much I want to say but I just can’t because in all honesty nothing is better than going in totally blind to this story.
Infallible will spoil you ! This has it all and if this story doesn’t take you by suprise and have you gripped from the beginning I’m Not sure what will. Is there anything better than a book that consumes you ? A story you lose yourself in ? A world that has you on the edge of your seat and mind spinning ? Twists that leave your jaw agape? The unexpected that makes your stomach flip ? Steam so hot you will need a fan! Chemistry so intense and passionate, scenes so erotic there’s no doubt you’ll be a wet mess !
A few of my fave authors I call queens of “something�, because they all excel at something specific in their writing. Charlene is the Queen of twists and Steam! Her story plots are what have you completely hooked, the pace of unravelling is perfection.
She writes the hottest books but let’s not takeaway the fact of true love here, it’s deep and meaningful and so many quotes really hit you, touch you deeply and show your the true meaning of love !
Prepare to be captivated, embrace the thrill of this journey you’ll take and I’ll see you at the other side 😉
Infallible by Charlene Namdhari is the first ARC I have received for my honest review. It is the third novel in the Serendipity series and builds on character(s) we have already met and introduces new ones that we will come to love or hate. This is Rayden's story. But ladies and gentlemen please prepare yourselves, as we are no longer riding on the proverbial rollercoaster as with the previous two books. We have just been launched into the stratosphere at breakneck speed with this fast paced storyline that is so full of twists and unexpected turns you could wind up with whiplash! You may need to reread some sections as your brain is still processing....and not believing....what it just read. And it is ohhhhh so good! This story could be read as a stand alone, however I highly recommend reading the first two novels in this series before devouring Infallible. You will not be disappointed, I guarentee. Happy reading!!!
I have been waiting for Raydens story ever since we met him in Intoxication....and i have not been left disappointed! Charlene has an ability to take you on a roller coaster journey of emotions. You cant decide who you love, hate, despise or want to f $#k from one page to the next. Raydens story definitely wasnt what i was expecting and i am even more excited by that. There are twists you would never expect coming.
In this book we meet the seriously intensely hot and mysterioys Lorenzo Rossi and the story that unfolds between Rayden, Zena and Lorenzo will leave you begging for another with these characters.
OMGEEE!! This book has me twisted inside out. I was completely stunned and pleasantly surprised at the plot twist. Charlene you have really outdone yourself.!! This book gets a 5 star rating!!!!
This is the 3rd book in this amazing series and is Rayden. Lorenzo, and Zena’s journey. These characters are completely different, as when Rayden loves he gives it his all, while Lorenzo is dark and broody, and Zena is the one who brings both men to their knees. This is a perfect love triangle story, which has combustible and undeniable chemistry. This is an epic story, which is raw, gritty, and mindblowing, and with emotions, twists, loss, lies, heartbreak, betrayal, secrets, truths, pain, and love, which all leads to a riveting and addictive page turner. This talented author has done an outstanding job in weaving this story, and she just seems to be getting better and better. I was completely invested with this story, and I just had to devour it in one sitting. I look forward to reading more from this author whose work I highly recommend. However, there may be triggers for some readers due to the sensitive content, so just be aware of the warning!!
Infallible is a steamy hot read that is full of twists and turns. This book will bring you through the past and present of this complex love story.
Lorenzo is pure alpha male, Rayden is man with so much love to give, and Zena the women who brings both men to their knees.
A chance encounter turns everything upside down. Truth, lies and secrets that have you pulled right in.
This book will push you to the edge. This was intense and I loved not knowing where this story was going to go. The characters, the plot, the chemistry between this love triangle was off the charts!!
This book takes you through all the emotions. This book captured my heart all the way through....
Zena a.k.a Zee & Lorenzo a.k.a Remo is a dark age gap romance (10 years) and its a interesting one in a twisted way. There is alove trained with Rayden. There are a few story trials and one that broke my heart is Lorenzo sister...no spoilers There but it will break you and show how dark people souls are. She has a her big killer brother to revenge her...
Rayden is caught up in this mess and. Lorenzo took him underneath is wing and developes a bound like to me father & son. My heart broke from him when...no spoilers
Let's just say these three story is a complicated one indeed...
The ending did surprise me !!
☆MUST READ� I recommend take notes cause there are time jumps and the ages of the characters
If you haven’t read Intoxication first then you might miss out on some of this book. I’m not into giving spoilers, but I will say that Lorenzo is a bad man with a HUGE heart. I think I fell a little in love with this rogue. Rayden has been hurt in the past & Zena is complex. There was a plot twist that I never saw coming & struggled to put this book down to sleep. Can’t recommend this highly enough, if you want something different then READ this book.
Buckle up, this is one heck of a ride! Rayden at eighteen is somewhat shy and vulnerable around women. But the one thing he is sure of is Zena. She is the woman he wants even though she is older than him by a few years. She also keeps sending him mixed signals. But time is on his side, and he is willing to wait and chip at her walls until she gives herself over to him. Everything seemed to be going to plan until Lorenzo Rossi makes an appearance. Lorenzo is a formidable man, linked to the Mafia and the underworld. He has blood on his hands and shows no remorse for those who have crossed him. When Rayden witnesses an incident, he runs, but the one thing he can't do is leave Zena behind. Going back for her puts them both in Lorenzo warpath. Zena is well aware of the rumours and equally petrified of Lorenzo and she tries to warn Rayden. With his cocky attitude, he gets them in a whole heap of trouble. Yet Lorenzo seems taken with Rayden and his spitfire attitude. Nobody has ever had the sass to stand up to him, and there is something about the young boy that reminds him, of himself. Rayden is in awe of Lorenzo and wants to be like him. Lorenzo starts teaching him a few hard truths. But by doing so, he oversteps his mark and claims what Rayden believes to be his. Was it a lesson? Or a warning? Zena seems to be the one, caught in the middle until the walls come crashing down. Who can you trust, when at every turn a threat hangs over your head? This story is complex. The plot is outstanding and you will have to read right through to the end to understand it all. The twists and turns will have you twirling like a tornado. My heart bleeds for Rayden for what he endured in his life. Betrayed by those closest to him was a hard lesson. Ms Namdhari writes the most dramatic plots while making you fall in love with her characters. And just when you think you know what is going to happen, she drops a bomb that leaves you gasping in shock. I am not going to say more, except, if you think you know Rayden, you are in for a huge surprise. Ms Namdhari books are packed to the brim, with pages and pages of an intriguing story. This one is mafia-related, so expect some dark moments. But most of all, fall in love with Rayden, the boy who becomes a man and will steal your heart.
