Publisher's summary

Milene

Rules. I know them, but I didn't follow them. I moved into his city, his domain without approval. Now, it's time for me to pay the price.

Marry the cold, calculating Don of La Cosa Nostra—the man many have never seen or could recognize—and be bound to the mafia forever.

But when he comes to collect me, I realize that this isn't the first time we've met.

Salvatore

Nothing amazes me anymore. I've seen and done too much. Until her.

She's an anomaly living in poverty in my city without approval. I'm drawn to her in ways I never imagined. She ignites me and intrigues me.

I want more than stolen touches. I want it all.

What Salvatore Ajello wants, he takes.

Stolen Touches is a full-length novel with several open-door steamy scenes, no cheating, and a guaranteed HEA. It is the fifth book in the Perfectly Imperfect mafia series. Each book in this series features a different couple and can be enjoyed as a standalone, but for maximum enjoyment, follow the recommended listening order.

5s Across the Board

Milene is a working woman and I'm here for it. Not only did she want to leave the Mafia life behind, but she made a life for her and got a job. When she talked about her apartment being smaller than her room at her childhood home, following it up with but it was paid for with her own money. Two girl power hands in the air!! But I got weary Salvatore put cameras in her house....sir I'm sorry? 🥴 However I soften a little when he had her apartment cleaned and fridge with food. I found it amusing, still creepy, but amusing.

Not going to lie I'm glad Salvatore took care of Randy early on. He couldn't take no for an answer, maybe a bullet to the thigh will help. Though it would have been interesting if he maybe became one of the villains in the book. He just disappears.

Milene and Bianca are by far my favorite characters in this series. Both taking what they want. Milene wanted Salvatore, invites him back to her house, and would of had a good time if it wasn't for the sniper 😭. I believe Milene and Salvatore had instant chemistry or maybe lust at first sight. Whatever you want to call it. Until the dummy forced her into a marriage. Why couldn't he just let the relationship play out, and still protect her from the shadows.

Milene made me laugh, and it was just natural with her. Not to mention despite having money given to her, she still insisted on spending her own from nursing. Prior to marrying Salvatore. And what does bother me is him preventing her from working, he could have easily hired bodyguards for her. But I suppose she gets to use her skills in the family infirmary.

I liked the slow progress of this story. Milene could have slept with him like she planned to the day after their date, once they were married. But she made him work for it after uprooting her life. Their banter was refreshing, because they could match each other's wity. And Salvatore allowed Milene to be herself, when everyone else around him needed to be perfect. Though her inner monologue got a little annoying. And I said many times, just sleep with him already 😭.

Milene running away from Salvatore's office was crazy to me. I get she didn't want part of this life, but surely she knew what her husband does for a living. She clearly just wanted to see Pippa. And I wonder if she could have seen her often if she asked. I will say her having to call him every hour is insanity. I mean I get it, but still.

Once they finally start sleeping together and more or less admit their feelings for each other the story picks up. The constant will they, won't they was dragging. Especially since we as the reader knew their feelings for each other. Communication is key people 😭. When Milene threatened to leave if Salvatore got shot again, was the silliest thing I ever read. Honey the man is a Mafia don, the odds of him getting shot again are high. What does she expect him to do, sit back and let other people run the family? Girl bye 💀.

I loved Salvatore's mother. Finally a high ranking Mafia man with a good mother. The care she verbally shows for him was refreshing. Not something I've seen much in the mafia books I've read. Her words about Salvatore were "ominous". But is what caused me to want to continue to read. As the book was getting a little dry for me. However I do wished it was explained why he called her by name and not mother.

Overall this definitely takes the second spot in my favorite book by Neva Altaj. The kidnapping scene was somewhat lacking, but since it happened towards the end of the book that was to be expected. The ending of this book was so cute, between Salvatore and their daughter Mia. I was not expecting that when Milene stormed into his office. And am very much looking forward to Alessandro's book after the brief conversation we overheard in this book. And a light bulb quickly went off AZ from Sergei's book is Alessandro!!!! 😲

More please

I need more of these books. Love the author, plots, and narrators. Wonderful listen. Love
