His Sinful Need is the fourth book in Leighton Greene's West Coast Mobsters series. I have loved all the books (and her Morelli Family series). This fourth book is another five-star book. The main characters in this book are Max Pedretti, the Castellani head of security, and Bricker Soldano, a Capo for the Esposito family. This is a very well-written story that brings the two families into contact through Max and Bricker.
Exploring other families and how they interact is one of the things the author does very well. I got a good idea of the power structure for the Espositos. The head of the family is a woman, a smart and powerful woman, and that is a nice change. Characters from previous books drop in to help, like Jack with his Pinto driving people around. Or to scare the ever-loving-$hit out of people, like a smiling Julian offering to send Max's friend (Bricker) "straight to the cells? They're partially filled in, but the cement's still wet, so --". The plot has a mystery, lots of action, and a May-to-December romance. The mystery took me as long as the characters to solve. I did not guess the solution earlier and that is always fun. The romance was hot, angsty, and sweet. I pre-ordered the fifth book in the series today. The Morelli Series is being released on audio and I am buying them as they come out. If you enjoy gay mob romances (three years ago I did not know this genre existed), you will enjoy the Morelli and West Coast Mobsters series. I received an advanced review copy from the author. I had already preordered the book. I read the arc, wrote an honest review, and was happy to receive my paid copy when it was released.
