'My Review'
'CRUEL SAINTS'
Is a full length mafia romance read, by Author Michelle Heard. Spoken in 'Dual Perspectives.'
'Cruel Saints' is one I've been anticipating like no other book before it, this world this author has created is one I never want to end, whatever she writes I will read, but these mafia reads she's dipping into are ones I'm loving above all else, she always gives me exactly what I crave without me even having to ask, throw in her little twists of darkness which she’s known for, have me coming back for more.

As soon as this dropped on my kindle life was put on hold, I loved the storyline, the characters, the raw grittiness, I loved seeing our heroine go from wings clipped to flying under a man so perfect for her.
Elena: We meet her when she's seventeen years old, because her father is an arms dealer she doesn't get to enjoy life like others, she's locked within a cage of her fathers doing, she's his bargaining chip when needed, even if its to be married to a man which makes her skin crawl, he's much older than her and treats her badly.
When she's sent to St. Monarch at the age of twenty-one she finally has her freedom offered back to her, even if only for a little while.
Lucian: Is to take over from his father one day once he finishes his training at St. Monarch, as one of the most feared men amongst their rivals. He's beyond attractive, radiates power and danger oozes off him. But above all he's in control of everything that surrounds him.
Clapping eyes on Elena straight away she intriques him, he's never seen her before, was shocked she even existed as no one knows about her. She doesn't want anything to do with him because anyone associated with the mafia isn't something she'd jump at.
Whilst at St. Monarch's she asks for his help which has them in close quarters as he teaches her to fire a gun and fight.
