Author Roseanna White is an accomplished author who writes many different genres and I love all of her books! Shadowed Loyalty is her latest book and it is a different time period for Ms. White. In Shadowed Loyalty Ms. White tells the story of Sabina and Lorenzo, both adult children of mobsters in Chicago, during Prohibition. Sabina, the innocent daughter of a mob boss is engaged to Lorenzo, a young lawyer struggling to make a life outside of the Family! I loved the characters and the growth they show as the book progresses. The setting is great and the story reads very well. I loved the plot as Sabina discovers her heritage and her faith. I must add that all of Roseanna White's books are on my must-buy and add to my keeper shelf.
So find a comfy chair, brew up a pot of tea and curl up for an excellent story.
I was given a copy of Shadowed Loyalty by the publisher with no expectations. All thoughts are my own.
From Amazon:
Sabina Mancari never questioned her life as the daughter of Chicago’s leading mob boss until bullets tear apart her world and the man she thought she loved turns out to be an undercover Prohibition agent. Ambushes, bribes, murder, prostitution—all her life, her father sheltered her from his crimes, but now she can no longer turn away from the truth. Maybe Lorenzo, the fiancé who barely paid her any attention in the last two years, has the right idea by planning to escape their world. But can she truly turn her back on her family?
All his life, Lorenzo’s family assumed he would become a priest, but he has different ideas—marrying Sabina and pursuing a career in the law. Despite his morals, he knows at the core he isn’t so unlike his mafiosi father and brothers. Has he, in trying to protect Sabina, forced her into the arms of the Prohibition agent bent on tearing her family apart? How can they rebuild what has so long been neglected and do it in the shadow of the dark empire of the Mafia?
Shadowed Loyalty, set amid the glitz and scandal of the Roaring Twenties, examines what love really means and how we draw lines between family and our own convictions, especially when following one could mean losing the other.
