Review: Contempt (Renzo + Lucia Book 3) by Bethany-Kris

Review of Contempt (Renzo + Lucia Book 3) by Bethany-Kris


CONTEMPT

It's been 5 long, lonely years since Renzo and Lucia were together. She's still so angry at her family, it's part of why she's lived in California. But the time has come for her to come home when an emergency arises.


Renzo's 5 years is almost up with The League. He's this close to being out, to being able to contact his love, Lucia, again. Surely he can wait til this one last job is up before he sees her again? He's spent the past 5 years training, hating, filled with anger, filled with CONTEMPT. But he's never forgotten Lucia, will never forget her, the only woman he's ever loved.


Sigh...I cannot express how much I love Contempt!! This whole trilogy, actually. Renzo and Lucia's love, although a young love, is so solid, so epic that they and their story feel like they've loved each other forever. Their journey back to each other is crazy intense, filled with all the things you'd expect from a Mafia love. It's gritty and raw, but it's so damn beautiful that I admit to shedding a few tears throughout, and especially at the end, during the epilogue of Renzo and Lucia's story. Bethany-Kris has surely solidified my love of her Mafia romances with this final installment of the Renzo + Lucia trilogy. I will never forget these two young lovers and their beautiful, painful story of love, Mafia style.

You TV series

Wow, hubby and I watched You on Lifetime last night. It was creepy and suspenseful. Hubby likened it to Dexter , and I have to agree. Penn Badgley was on point - creepy, stalkery, but fascinating. I didn't think too much of Elizabeth Lail's acting, but I'm not sure if it was just that her character was bland, or if it was truly bad acting. Can't wait for next week!
