Times best-selling author Missy Johnson asks a burning question: What happens
when love is undeniable—and taboo?
Pietro Gustovi is loyal, polished,
and hard as stone, the kind of guy women want and men respect. At twenty-three,
he’s survived tragedies that would break men twice his age. And he owes it all
to his father’s closest friend, Giovanni Spontagio, who took him in as an
orphaned teenager. Pietro would give his life for Giovanni . . . but his heart
belongs to Giovanni’s daughter.
Raised in Chicago under the spotlight
of power and privilege, Lucy Spontiago feels most alive on stage. Determined to
become a prima ballerina, she escapes her father’s protective gaze long enough
to audition for the ballet in New York City. Soon, however, Lucy realizes that
she is not alone. Pietro is watching her back. And though he’s like a brother
to her, Lucy cannot deny the thrill she feels knowing his eyes are on her.
Pietro could never betray his mentor
by sleeping with his only child. But Lucy follows her passions, no matter how
forbidden. Soon their nights are consumed by explosive, red-hot temptation—a
dance that will expose shocking secrets and burn everything else to the ground.

Review:
This started off a little slow for my taste but once it going, it was actually a great read!
And sexy, too!!
There is a cliffhanger and I wasn't too excited about that because I don't really care for cliffhangers but it has me intrigued enough to read the next book, so I guess it did it's job.
Pietro is a very hot character and the mafia element makes him even hotter to me. He's a very loyal character and his affection for Lucy shows his sweet side. Lucy was a great character as well. She doesn't let her overbearing father turn her into a victim. And their sexual tension creates some of the sexiest scenes!!
The mystery surrounding what really happened to Pietro's family is very intriguing and I'm interested to learn more about what happened there. I'd love to see a little more of the mafia aspect in the next book in this series. Overall this was a great read and I look forward to reading more about the characters in this series.
