THE SANTINIS: Vincente, Book 4

THE SANTINIS: Vincente, Book 4
4.5 STARs

Vincete “Vince” Santini, Marine, is the oldest of the Santini brothers and holds the honor of being the "last man standing."
... Jules is local florist shop owner, and former high school friends with the Santini brothers. Jules had a strained marriage that ended in divorce, and his subsequent death.
Vince has been in love with Jules since he was seventeen and now Jules is back and unattached. Will Vince be able to convince Jules to take a chance with him.
We also get to see the whole Santini Family and new members of the family together. This story was funny and sexy, and we also get a glimpse into the matriarch of the family as well.
This is the final installment of the Santini's, and I think Melissa Schroeder saved the best for last. It was bitter sweet when the story finished and I was left wanting more. I am hoping we get to see into the life's of the Santini's when she branches out to MJ's brothers.

Santini's-Marco by Melissa Schroeder

The Santini's-Marco. Book 2
By Melissa Schroeder
Review by
W.jackson.
ARC
4stars

Marco Santini is the reserved brother of the Santinis. He's a Navy SEAL, who has an attraction to his landlady. Alana Kailikea Is not what you expect when you hear the term "landlady", she's young, beautiful, and rich (due to tragic circumstances, beyond her control). Alana tries to do good things with the wealth she has, but has been hurt by men with other motives.

In this book we get to meet ALL of the Santini brothers. I really enjoyed their interactions with each other and Alana. Marco's brothers flirt with her mercifully, which actually prompts Marco to finally go after what he wants.

This is a novella and quick read. There are some hot scene's( but come on, we are talking about Melissa Schroeder. Does she ever not write a hot scene).

I liked this book because we did get meet all the brothers, but I felt, with the book being so short, that we didn't really get the full experience of Marco & Alana's story. Their "conflict" seemed to be rushed and glossed over. I just wished there had been a little more.

We also get an update on Leo & Maryanne and a glimpse at what's to come for Gee's story.

Looking forward to the next installment.
