Castellani family is hosting, in fact insisting on, talks between the warring factions of the Bernardi family. Their violence is spilling into the community and the FBI is sure to follow if it does not stop. Running point for this will be Darian, the very efficient butler who has been there less than a year and has not experienced the true mafia yet, and Raffi, the second in security who knows one mistake could ruin his future and his life. The problems both men will have to deal with are a multitude. Even before they can deal with Julian wanting to kill AJ Bernardi, the new Don, they have to deal with each other. There is so much potential for violence. The Castellanis expect problems and expect Raffi to take care all the security in hand. Darian finds his introduction to the mafia to be brutal when AJ's consigliere assaults him. The talks were a delicate balance under the best of conditions. Honestly even before the assault they were not the best of conditions. When the first murder occurs things quickly spin out of control. Before Raffi and Darian can have their time together, they have to solve the murders. Julian now wants to kill AJ plus his consigliere for touching Darian. Don Castellani would Julian do it if it did not break the vows of the parley. It is a hot mess. I really enjoy the relationship growth between Darian and Raffi. It was not a smooth road to happiness. Which makes a better book. Every book in the West Coast Mobsters series has been five stars. I preordered His Guilty Pleasure. Once I finished the book, I preordered the next book in the series. This has really been a wonderful series full of fun characters.
