BLURB:

I'm a mob boss with a tarnished name, leading a kingdom in the shadows of disgrace.
She's a ballerina, the sister of my underboss, dancing her way through life.
Until her, all I wanted was to be straightened out.
But with power comes sacrifice.
With respect comes fear.
With love comes death.
The rule of the streets is to take or be taken.
Some legends are born, others are made.
But not all survive.

*Originally featured as a novella in Mobbed Up, the #TNTNYC20 exclusive paperback anthology, Straightened Out is a full-length mafia romance novel and the first installment in The Pastore Crime Family series. *

My Thoughts:

Rocco has a short fuse when it comes to certain things.  Like a lot of us, Violet has dreams and aspirations that she’s had to put on hold due to family obligations.  This is not a story that romanticizes what it means to be a part of the mafia.  It shows the pain these people inflict and receive.  Plus it shows how the life effects loved ones. 

 

Got to love a story that slowly builds a relationship between two people.  You can feel the heat these two create when their in the same space.  They don’t act on what we can feel right away.  That’s one thing that has you continually turning the page.  The other thing is trying to figure out what Rocco is going to do.  Rocco is the bad boy who loves the good girl but can they both live in the same space.  His profession could make that hard.  You think that Violet is going to be the typical good girl but you’ll find her to be a surprise.   

 

One thing I loved was how the author had our characters talk to us – like we’re a confidant.  We know a secret that no one else knows about.  And isn’t that one of the main things for those that work for the mob?  So many secrets.  That includes the mystery of book two of The Pastore Crime Family series. 

About Janine:

Janine Infante Bosco lives in New York City, she has always loved reading and writing. When she was thirteen, she began to write her own stories and her passion for writing took off as the years went on. At eighteen, she even wrote a full screenplay with dreams of one day becoming a member of the Screen Actors Guild.

Janine writes emotionally charged novels with an emphasis on family bonds, strong willed female characters, and alpha male men who will do anything for the women they love. She loves to interact with fans and fellow avid romance readers like herself.

She is proud of her success as an author and the friendships she's made in the book community but her greatest accomplishment to date would be her two sons Joseph and Paul.
