Lie to Me: A Second Chance Mafia Romance (The Romano Empire Book 3) Kindle Edition

4.2 out of 5 stars 375 ratings

She was forbidden, our families rivals.

It's been ten years since I stared into those blue eyes and broke her heart.

After that, she disappeared. She left and never looked back... until now.

But she can't hide the heartbreak that's still in her eyes... and something else that I can't place.

Now that she's back? In my city? In my sights? I'll never be able to let her go. Except new dangers outweigh the old ones and I'm not sure we even stand a chance.

The question is, will she look me in the eye and lie to me?

This is a dark mafia romance told in dual POV and has no cheating and a HEA. This is book three in a series of three interconnected standalones, each of which features one of the Romano brothers. Trigger warnings listed inside the book.

    It's hard to put in to words what a magnificent story this was to read. Kudos to S. Wilson for writing this book.
    I don't know how the chapters that made me cry like a baby was written so beautifully. It had to have been really hard. My heart broke so bad.
    This was one of the best books I've ever read.

    Loved the series and would recommend to anyone. Almost cried my eyes out but laughed so hard at times I did cry!

    Very long & convoluted. Stupid ending. Stupid no marriage stupid no kids. Sad just seems like letting fear control you. &. No marriage is dumb for legal reasons & the mafia would fly

    Worth the Wait

    Lie to Me is a gripping second-chance romance wrapped in danger, betrayal, and an undeniable connection that refuses to fade. The story follows a man who has spent the last ten years haunted by the memory of the woman he once loved—and lost. Their love was forbidden, torn apart by a longstanding rivalry between their families. He broke her heart, and she disappeared without a trace.

    Now, she’s back.

    Seeing her again stirs up everything he thought he’d buried—the love, the guilt, the regret. But there’s something different about her now, something hidden beneath the heartbreak in her blue eyes. And as much as he wants to claim her once more, new threats loom over them, far more dangerous than the past that once tore them apart.

    A perfect blend of forbidden love, suspense, and raw emotion, Lie to Me delivers a powerful story of love that refuses to be extinguished, no matter the odds. Fans of second-chance romance with a touch of danger will find this book impossible to put down.

    I always thought the suffering, broody MMC wasn't my type, but Marco has proven me wrong! Much as I love Enzo and all of his crazy, I think this is my favorite book in the series.

    Marco and Sloane are so good together and complement each other perfectly. Wilson did such a good job with the second chance trope here and managed to create tension and drama between alternating past/present chapters.

    The story was interesting and kept me engaged the entire time and there was a twist that I didn't see coming, but it was a great addition to the story.

    Sloane's past contains serious heartbreak, and while I can't relate to this, I thought Wilson handled it very well.

    Please check triggers for this book (and series), and if they're ok with you, I definitely recommend them!

    Oh, how I am obsessed with this series! I've been anxiously waiting for Marco's book and I absolutely loved it!

    This follows Sloane and Marco and their emotional, second chance romance that definitely breaks your heart before putting it back together. 10 years have gone by since Marco broke Sloane's heart, but now that she's back he is never letting her go again. Sloane has been through SO MUCH and my heart broke for her. She was so strong and resilient. Marco was also a wonderful mmc! He was so patient and loving with Sloane. I loved how he gave her the space she needed to work through everything while also never giving up hope that they would be together.

    This book is a must read for all mafia lovers! I can't wait for more books from this author in the future!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars what a roller coaster
    Reviewed in Germany on April 27, 2025
    This book was everything and more!! Marco intrigued me the sending he was mentioned in the first book and why he is the way he is and I suspected it was a girl and what a girl that was
    That whole story and the flashbacks and the background was amazing and gave the best insight onto their relationship
    The horrible stuff that happened and how it all affected them both in the moment and after the truth was revealed
    They let themselves have time but the Romano men have no patience when it comes to their woman and Marco was no different but he still gave her space where she needed it and I think that was beautiful
    Izzy is still my favorite but Sloane is up there with her in my rank, Robyn is still the biggest sweetheart, I loooove Marco and basically all the Romano men are amazing in their own way and I want one too

    Loved this whole series and the characters, who I learned to love so much!!

    And also I’m very curious about Skye and what her story is, there is a whole book there and I hope there is one where her and Finn are the MCs cause there’s a reason for that one scene, where it basically was set up for that

    Forever reading books of a HEA with marriage and kids at the end. Was a really refreshing ending. Don’t ever stop writing this magic 🪄

    5.0 out of 5 stars No More Lies.
    Reviewed in Canada on January 30, 2025
    I’ve been so excited for this one. I was up bright and early (3am) just to dig in. Marco and Sloane were perfect for each other and I hate what they had to go through to get their HEA.
    I loved seeing what Salvatore has done behind the scenes for years to make sure his boys were happy. Finn and his role in protecting his sister was just as impressive. Their twin bond really stood the test of time.
    Of course Enzo still has my heart. He was so attentive with Robyn. Getting to see 12 year old Enzo was adorable.

    4.0 out of 5 stars ‘You’ve always been mine, baby. And you always will be.’
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 9, 2025
    I could not put this book down, finished in a day!

    So, my heart still belongs to Enzo BUT Marco Romano!!! Wow, his vulnerableness stood out to me immensely, he wasn’t afraid to share how he was feeling. It just came so effortlessly to him, even though he didn’t always want that communication. And That connection with Sloane is swoon worthy, isn’t that the goal?! It’s hard to believe that he was this emotionally mature at just 19. I got them Romeo and Juliet vibes with this story.

    Sloanes ability to set boundaries and not fall to her knees for Marco, which he also respected in turn. She was a strong FMC which we don’t see enough of, a breath of fresh air. I also enjoyed to see Sloane and Izzy’s friendship, would love a background story on their history!

    I thought the back and forth to the past and present flowed so well and really showed their story. I loved the glimpses that we were given of the previous couple’s within this family, it’s kept the story strong and real.

    I ate this book up! Thank you S.Wilson!

I'm so happy that we finally got to know him more and Sloane is just amazing. I loved her so much. Yes she was stubborn , but so brave and so strong. They are so perfect together.
