Chicago’s Ferraro crime family will do anything to protect one of their own in this thrilling entry in the Shadow Riders series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan.

Nicoletta Gomez was a terrified teenager when Taviano Ferraro and his brother saved her life. Ever since, she’s been trying to rise above what was done to her, molding herself into a survivor under the protective eyes of the Ferraro family. All the while, she’s been falling hopelessly in love with the man who knows her darkest secrets.…

With one look, Taviano knew that Nicoletta was his, just as he felt their shadows connect. But no matter how much he wanted to claim her, he knew she needed time to become her own woman. When Nicoletta once again finds herself in the sights of dangerous men, a split-second decision has Taviano breaking all of the Ferraro family’s rules to keep her safe. And as far as he’s concerned, the reward is more than worth the risk.

Eloisa put her doubled fists on her hips and leveled her cold gaze at Taviano's wife.  "I would prefer that you didn't speak to me at all."
Before Taviano could reprimand his mother, Nicoletta nodded.  "I would prefer that as well, but in my home, which is here and obviously, with Lucia and Amo, you can do your best not to be rude or don't bother coming around.  Outside of either place, we'll agree I won't speak to you and you don't speak to me."  (Kindle location 2918)

Oh my, how I've wanted someone to lay that women flat!  You go Nicoletta!  I've hated Eloisa since book 1.  I admit we learn a lot about her in this book but nothing changed my mind.  She may have reasons but they will never be good enough for me after all she's done.  

Have you read this series?  I have thoroughly enjoyed it.  This one is available today.
