AUTHOR: Alexa Land
PUBLISHER: Self-Published
LENGTH: 66 Pages
BLURB:
It’s Christmas Eve at Nana Dombruso’s house, and a wild party is in full swing. Gangsters, strippers and Nana’s ‘gay homosexuals’ are certainly bringing the holiday cheer. But all I can think about is what will happen when I see Constantino Dombruso again.
Connie and I have a very long, very complicated history. The last time I saw him, he’d tracked me down because someone had hired him to carry out a hit on my brother Luca and me. He didn’t go through with it, but the tension between us is through the roof.
His life has been on a troubling trajectory over the last decade. But the fact is, Connie got under my skin a long time ago, and despite everything, the attraction between us has always been electric.
When we see each other tonight at the party, there could be fireworks or gunfire. It could go either way.
REVIEW:
So…as any of you who read my reviews will know…I love everything Alexa. I’ve loved every single book she has published so far, both in this series and outside it. This lady can write. (Understatement).
In Hitman’s Holiday, we get back to the brothers of the two MC’s in All I Believe. The brothers are Nico’s brother Constantino (Tino), who is one of the world’s preeminent contact killers, and Luca’s brother Andreo (Dreo), who is an antiques dealer…who just happens to carry a Glock.
We met both of these guys during the events in All I Believe, and I was so hoping they would get their story told. I think it was a little bit of a cheat Ms. Land to only give them a short story for Christmas, but hey, we’ll take whatever we can get!
We knew from the previous book that there was something between these two because they kissed each other when Tino came to Tahiti to carry out a hit on both Nico and Luca which had been ordered by Tino and Nico’s uncle Jerry Dombruso. The hit had been called for their bringing shame on the family, since Nico and Luca’s families have been involved in a mafia “war” for generations.
Well, that story ended happy, and this one did too. No more spoilers. I’m recommending that you hit “one click” right now to pick the story up and see how the guys have a Merry Christmas! One more word about it…it left me going awwww. 🙂
This story is part of the Firsts and Forever series and I, and many of you, have read them all. If you are not already part of the Alexa Land Fan Club, you could probably easily read this as a standalone if you wanted to, but I still recommend you read the entire series! You will thank me when you do!
Ohhhh, almost forgot. Make sure you go all the way to the end on this one. There are some pretty shady sounding drink recipes after you go past that page that says “The End”! I would personally like to walk into a bar and order a “Santa’s Slippery Schlong”…but try saying that out loud…bet you can’t…lmfao. 😉
