I've inherited my sister's fiancé.

She had him first. Alessio Salvatore. Charming, gorgeous, and completely off-limits.
I watched him propose and counted myself lucky when my sister said "yes" to the notorious gangster. I have plans for my life. None of them involve sleeping with the enemy, even if it's to broker peace between our families.

But when my sister mysteriously dies, my life turns upside-down. I'm now the heir of my father's assets, and without an arranged marriage, our families are on the brink of war.

Until my father gives Alessio an offer he can't refuse.
Me.

Author's note: This is a dark, mafia arranged marriage, standalone romance. A young woman desperate to leave a life of crime and violence fights her arranged marriage to her late sister's fiancé, a ruthless mob boss who demands three things from her: marriage, loyalty, and a baby. As their wedding date approaches, Mia struggles with a decision that once seemed easy--escape his control or surrender to her heart?

Received this as a ARC. The story is a stand alone in this series. A good love story almost gets a tear to the eye in a few spots. Love the characters. Could use a little more depth but still works ss it is. Will read the next book from Vanessa.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the greatest. Got tired. Of the hot/cold back and forth and too many other threads gping on.

Not a bad story, but not the greatest either. It had potential, but failed in execution. An alliance of two mafia famiglias, to be secured by marriage between the Ricci's eldest daughter, Carmela, and Alessio Salvatore, underboss of the Costa famiglia. But when Carmela dissapears and is presumed dead, Mia is brought home to step into that role. There was attraction when these two first met, before the first arranged marriage. But Mia struggles with her attraction, the loss of her sister, and wanting out of the mafia life. She's tired of the violence and death. Alessio wants Mia, cares for her, but struggles with his loyalty to his mafia don, a man who's been like a father to him and what his wife wants.

I love a mafia romance that has a plot other than just the romance. It adds some excitement and danger to the story. But this one was all over the place..too many things going on and none of them developed enough to make sense or make it exciting. It was all just too much. Additionally, while I liked Mia, I really got tired of her hot and cold. She knew the life, grew up in it, so she either loved him and accepted him or she didn't...but please, make up your mind.

Honestly, I stuck it out up to the 65% mark but then she got cold again; I just couldn't take any more and started skimming through it to see how it ended. 3.5 stars.

Style: Erotica / Mafia/ Mobster
Story: 4/5
Sexual: Enticingly GOOD
Enjoyment: 5/5
Series: Book 1

THE GOOD
I really really really enjoyed this book. Sometimes the sex in a book can keep the momentum going and that gets boring after a while or the story captivates you and the story actually kept me engaged and I did not want to but this book down. Mia, I have to admit, in the beginning annoyed me to hell, however, tremendous growth with her character. Alessio, man after my own heart, he is such a ZADDY, even though it took Mia forever to see who he really is.

I loved the journey the author took me on as I was glued to everything unfolding, half way through the book I went and purchase ‘TAKEN’ the second book that’s how invested I was in this series and whose next. The moment Alessio and Mia finally came together, I did not lose interest and I liked that as the author definitely gave me my money’s worth.

THE BAD
I really don’t have anything bad as the good definitely out weighs the bad.

OVERALL
Overall, for me good read and it goes with my personally taste on what I love to read in my books. If you are definitely a fan of the mafia romance, this will be a good read.

** First time reading author

So I saw an ad for Monster by this author and I wanted to read it, but it said it went with these books. And if you are anything like me you want to start at the beginning of a series, even if it says "standalone". So that is what I did. I started Arranged, and I am so glad I did. Vanessa Waltz was a hidden gem out there that somehow I missed.

Arranged is an emotional ride at times and twisted at others. Mia and Alessio have many things to overcome before they can have their HEA. Mia will hate Alessio many times in this book due to the situation that they are in. But Alessio will show her that life doesn't always have to be the end of the world, and that they can find common ground to make a marriage work.

I enjoyed this story so much I jumped at the next one.

This is really a very good mafia romance. I thoroughly enjoyed all of it, when I had to stop reading I was itching to get back to it. The characters are very good, the whole book is very believable. The chemistry between Alessio and Mia is scorching hot and I loved all of it they were so hot when they got together. Terrific read!!😍😍😍😍😍

This was an extremely nice and easy read. There was some action, angsty emotions and more importantly some very steamy moments. I loved Mia, she was such a beautifully written character with so many intricate facets and I found myself relating to her and her moments of panic. I also very much like Alessio he was written so beautifully that I couldn’t help falling in love with him. Gentle, kind and generous but tough as nails with everyone else. Characters like him are the kind of bad boy vibe that every woman craves for.
