Fragile Union by Brooke Summers Review and Release Blitz!
♦ ♦ ♦
Marriages can be fragile, shattered, broken, destroyed...
Holly Gallagher hoped she would find love. That she’d have a happy life, unlike her parents.
Those hopes are dashed when her family arranges for her to marry.
She prays that she won’t end up like her mother. Bitter. Twisted. Evil.
That is until she realizes who she’s marrying. A monster.
Romero Bianchi has given his life to the Famiglia. He doesn’t love and he certainly doesn’t do attachments.
Everything he’s done is for the family. Nothing was going to ever change that.
Until Holly.
She breaks his resolve, piece by piece. She weaves herself deep inside his heart.
He’ll do anything for his wife. Protect her with his dying breath.
But being part of the Mafia isn’t easy. With enemies at every corner it’s hard to know where the threat is coming from.
When Holly’s taken, Romero shows the world what happens when someone takes what’s his.
Now he’s racing against the clock to find her before it’s too late.

This book was a great, fast-paced, suspense-filled story of characters I already fell in love with in the first book in this series, Bloody Union. I knew I loved Kenna and Dante in the first book, of course love Melissa and Danny too, but I think Rome and Holly may be my favorite.
As for character development, as usual- Brooke Summers has knocked it out of the park. I hate and love Rome’s story because it made him into who he is. I love that he was a protector from the time he was a child. I love that Holly loves his protectiveness, but can also take care of her damn self. She may look weak and fragile on the outside, but the girl has got some guts, just like all of Summers’ female characters which I LOVE.
I love that Rome is able to show and share some of his vulnerability with Holly. I love that Holly loves her family so much- her blood and the family she married into.
I wanted to STRANGLE Alessio multiple times in this book. Putting that rage aside, I really hope the next book in this series is about him.
Overall, I really enjoyed being back in the land of the Irish/Italian mafia. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series. I will say though- if there’s one thing I didn’t necessarily love about this book, it has to be the nicknames. They felt a little corny, especially considering who these people were and what they did for a living, but Holly seemed to light up at the term of endearment so I guess we’ll go with it! Anyway, like I said, overall really enjoyed it and hope you will take a chance on this one too!
Brooke is a Londoner born and raised. She lives with her husband and their daughter. She’s a foul mouthed, dirty minded weirdo. An introvert and would rather spend the night in front of the fire reading, rather than going out and partying.
