Time flew by so quickly, where did Q1 2020 go? At the beginning of this year, I’ve set my reading goal at 150 books. I was surprised when my good reads said I have completed 48 books in Q1. Most of the books are complimentary ARCs that I received from authors, publishers and marketing firms, and I’m grateful for their generosity. I’m also thankful for all the readers and followers of my blog and on social media.
Light some candles, unwrap a couple of chocolates, slip into something comfortable, keep the coffer maker warm and get ready to turn up the heat with some of the best romance novels of Q1 2020 on my shelf.
Here is list of some of the book recommendation. In Random order.
1) Sweet Temptation by Cora Reily
Amazon link – https://www.amazon.in/dp/B085NKRN5Y?ref_=k4w_oembed_IGSEigRHDfhmO2&tag=kpembed-20&linkCode=kpd
It’s a contemporary mafia romance. Cassio and Guilia enter into a traditional arrange marriage. Cassio Moretti is left with two small children to take care for alone. As Underboss of Philadelphia he already has his hands full with ruling over his territory. The barely eighteen-year-old Giulia Rizzo, herself is a child. One doesn’t become women in one day, just because she turned 18. But Giulia was definitely not a girl. She was more mature women and smart women. Having no experience with small children, she’s willing to learn and take good care of them and their father. Giulia was more than I expected. She’s adorable, caring, outspoken, sassy and insolent. She knows when to fight back and she will fight tooth and nail for her family.

It was total pleasure seeing them bond and fall in love with each other and fight for their family and their own happily ever after. Cora has found the perfect balance between developing Giulia and Cassio’s characters and their relationship as a couple and as parents. Pick this and enjoy the world of Giulia and Cassio
