Zano and Allegra are strangers, but both have made a commitment to make their marriage work. When all seems lost, a spark of hope appears.
My Review:
Simply amazing. This is again one of the best Reign books ever written. I have read them all. They keep impressing me either a little or by some or, like in this case, a lot!
We are back with Reno's crime family and it was nice to see the spotlight back on the Nostra Casa. Zano and Ally have a powerful story that shows sometimes life will throw you into the path of your true love. You can never plan for it; it will just happen.
What blew me away in this book is the suspense plotline aside from the excellent romance. There is a force working against all the families and they need to uncover it. To do this, they need help. This brings the Reign series into its first in-depth crossover with the Satan's Pride series, also by this author.
Having read all thirteen books of the fabulous Reign series, I am fully familiar with all the players in the four families. For you to truly get into the plot of this book you need to have one of two things going. One, you could read the amazing Satan's Pride series along with the great Reign series. Two, you could be married to your soulmate who has read all the Satan's Pride books. That works too.
No spoilers here, this book is fantastic. The romance is beautifully written and the love story of Zano and Ally is excellent and spicy reading. The action is comprehensive and thought-provoking. I was so drawn into this story I had a hard time putting the book down. Just one of the best Reign's ever and I can't wait to see where this story goes. I will follow it to wherever it leads!
A true award-worthy novel by one of the great authors of the 21st century.

Author Biography:
I was born in a small town in Italy. My parents are loving people; and true traditionalists. I grew up being a chatterbox of a child and evolved into a quiet and shy teenager. I was definitely not the life of the party. As a matter of fact, I never wanted to go to any high school dances or any activities the school offered. I was good with being alone. I had to grow into my own and I eventually became the fun loving, open-minded and creative person I am now. I love the ‘me’ I have become and I am grateful that this is where I have landed.
Writing is my release and I have escaped in my imagination to some incredible places meeting the most awesome characters. I also wanted to be a rock star but anyone who has ever heard me sing kindly convinced me that I do not have any talent. (In other words, I suck at it.)
Although I have been writing since I was in grade school, and I am a hopeless romantic.
GUARD is the first book in a seven book series. In 2019, WAR (Book 2 in the series) will be launched. Each book introduces characters who you will learn about in the next series.
Why I write romance? I thrive on two individuals connecting in mind, body and soul. The understanding of wants and needs and placing them as a priority and not out of fear of losing them or because you feel you need to concede; you do it because it feels easy and right in your own heart.
My other passion is cooking! I enjoy making meals for my family and friends and bantering around the table. I have colourful people in my life and they all add to my rainbow. I love music! I like it all, depending on my mood.
And lastly, I love to travel. I want to enjoy all that life has to offer. I want to meet people, learn from them and create the most fantastic, sexy love stories. If I can do this overlooking the ocean and feeling the breeze wash over me then I have my heaven on earth.
Stay tuned for more novels in the Satan’s Pride motorcycle club and Dark Reign mafia romance series coming soon!
