A new stand-alone dark mafia romance from USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author, Siobhan Davis.
Natalia Mazzone has grown up knowing she is promised to a made man. As the only daughter of one of New York’s most powerful mafia dons, she knows she can’t refuse. It’s her duty, and she would never dishonor her beloved father.
But the man she’s promised to is a monster. And there is nothing but torture, pain, and heartache lying in wait.
So, she grabs happiness when she finds it - in the somewhat reluctant arms of Leonardo Messina.
Leo is her brother’s best friend. A soldato for the Mazzone famiglia. A man with strong ambition and an even stronger resolve. He won’t allow them to give in to temptation, so Natalia is forced to love him from afar.
Until one forbidden night changes everything, and she readily hands Leo the key to her heart.

One that doesn’t involve him.
Years have passed, and his feelings remain the same. Yet he keeps his distance, dedicating himself to his new role as underboss to Bennett Mazzone, while the love of his life is married to another man.
Until a twist of fate puts Natalia in his path again, and this time, he is powerless to resist.
This is a full-length stand-alone novel with no cliff-hanger and an HEA. For listeners who enjoy brother's best friend, second chance, dark mafia, forbidden romance.
REVIEW
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I am offically obsessed with this mafia world Siobhan Davis has created! After finishing Condemed to Love, I could not wait for Natalia and Leo's story, and what a story it is! Forbidden to Love is dark, emotional, gritty and heartbreaking at times. The suspense and danger lurking at all corners kept me guessing from start to finish.
Leo and Natalia's love story begins when they are teenagers, they love each other so fiercely but a relationship between them is strictly forbidden as Natalia is the daughter to a Mafia Don, and has been promised to another. The way Leo protects her and watches over her made my heart soar and break at the same time.
Natalia is the pillar of strength! My heart squeezed and ached for her. She has endured so much, lost so much and still came out fighting every single time.
Sarah Puckett and Michael Gallagher are such incredible storytellers. They tell this story in duet and it made the story come alive in my ears so perfectly. Their voices are strong, emotional, captivating and engaging. I felt all the emotions with their performances from love, fear, steam and angst. I need more stories narrated by these two asap!
I am in love with Siobhan Davis' writing and the Mazzone famiglia and I am dying to find out what she has in store for Serena and Alesso in Scared to Love next!
