My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars
Dark Ties
is an interwoven duet by mother and daughter duo Jamie Begley and Sarah
Brianne. The book tells two different stories, one of Dante Caruso and Desmond
Beck.
Dante
Caruso’s story can be seen as book 9 in the Made Men series and focuses on
Dante Caruso (father of Lucca, Nero, Maria and Leo). We see a more human side
of Dante as he meets a new woman who although can sometimes be intimidated by
him, also gives him some things to think about as well as trying to get him to
see past the trauma of losing his wife and think about what he has now. It was
nice seeing Dante in a different light and a bit more reflective. I would have
liked a longer story, but I always feel that was about Ms. Brianne’s writing. I
can’t wait to see who is next in the line up!
Desmond
Beck’s story was also good. I hadn’t read previous books my Ms. Begley so I don’t
know if that would make a difference on knowing Desmond a bit better and more
about his background. This story was quite fast paced, and Desmond and Hailey
try and figure out their relationship and how everyone was interconnected. Hailey
was a bit of a nerd a suited Desmond well and also had her own issues which
made her more relatable.
Overall, two good stories in the Mafia genre with some sexy scenes, some intrigue and some vulnerability.
