    Age gap mafia romance
  

*by D***M on Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2022*

I know many did not enjoy Sofia and Danilo, but I sure did! Danilo had caught my attention in Twisted Pride and knowing he now “had” to marry Sofia, I knew this book was going to be angsty. I loved the character development for Danilo! He did go through a difficult phase but I mean who wouldn’t ? Having his bride kidnapped and then being told you’d have to wait to marry again and marry the little sister yeah, I understood why he went through that wild phase. Now Sofia, my dear Sofia.. I felt so bad for her. But she just needed to grow up and realize her worth. I loved how both Danilo and Sofia worked on their relationship and gosh them spicy scenes were everything!! This book was just amazing! And will forever be one of my favorites!

    Danilo and Sofia Forever
  

*by S***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2023*

Sofia and Danilo get their happily ever after in Fragile Longing! For those familiar with the Cora Mafia world, Danilo was supposed to marry Seraphina, Sofia's older sister, but since she was no longer available... he is offered Sofia instead. Sofia is thrilled. She's had a huge crush on Danilo and she sees this as her chance to be with him finally, but her fairy tale prince façade comes crashing down, because Danilo wants nothing to do with her.For starters, they enter the contract when Sofia is 11 and Danila is 21. He gets to party his way through society, and basically ignore the fact he has a fiancé (granted she is extremely young when they get engaged), which gets worse when she's older.I feel so bad for Sofia, because she feels as if she is trying to take her sister's place, with her parents and then Danilo. She wants to be loved so badly, but she never feels seen.Danilo is given almost 7 years to pretty much do what he wants, and he takes full advantage. As Sofia gets older, she makes advances, especially as they get closer to their wedding and she's almost 18, but Danilo shuts her down and continues to date with blondes (Sofia is brunette but older sister was a blonde), and continues to break her heart.Just before their nuptials, Danilo has a birthday party that was supposed to be like a one last big hurrah before the wedding and he screws up, and so begins his epic groveling. He really, really has to grovel to Sofia. And she deserves it. He didn't have to be such a jerk for so many years. He could've been sweet but still kept the rules and been polite.Danilo had a lot of making up to do to earn Sofia's heart and forgiveness in my opinion, but I think he was redeemable and he earned his redemption. I love Sofia, and I eventually liked Danilo. The Chicago guys have a bit of a complex, those dang rules they all follow!! I also love seeing Anna and Santino, their book is sooo good!!

    Love this book
  

*by V***A on Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2020*

The author did it again, this story was beyond amazing!!  Fragile Longing is an intense, passionate and emotional age gap romance that captivated me from beginning to end.Sofia is a sweet and naive girl who is promised to Danilo instead of her sister who ran away with the enemy.  She has always had a crush on Danilo, but now her insecurities win the game, she feels that she is not enough to fill the void that her sister left. But with the passage of time I loved to see her transform into a mature and confident woman determined to achieve her goals.Danilo is a proud, caring and protective man that loves his family but he is blinded by the rage of betrayal and the thirst for revenge towards Remo Falcone, who stole his ex-fiancée.Their relationship begins full of confusion, problems and misunderstandings, and the beginning of their marriage is difficult, but as time passes they get to know each other better, I loved to see the evolution of their relationship and how little by little their feelings change, and their connection is EVERYTHING, their chemistry jumps off through the pages. I swooned so hard! I loved them together.Cora Reilly is an exceptional author, I can't get enough of her words, this world and its families.This is a story about love, redemption and second chances that gave me all the feelings, get ready for a mafia romance that will leave you breathless
