Bad Guy by Ana Diamond

 The line between good and bad is dangerously blurred after an FBI informant is tasked with infiltrating a dangerous Mafia crew. But when the mob boss turns out to be a woman, he’s forced to question who the real bad guy is.

About the Book: Luke Daniels has done his fair share of bad things. But when the FBI offers him a deal in exchange for infiltrating the local Mafia’s infamous Costa Crew, Luke has no choice but to accept the challenge. 

Beautiful, smart and tough, Sophia Costa wants out of the Crew. Appointed boss by her brother after he’s sent to prison, she wants no part in the murder, deceit and secrecy typical of Mafia life. Just as things heat up between Luke and Sophia, a mysterious hitman targets Sophia, and Luke’s handler starts to wonder if Luke is up for the task.

As the lovers face the possibility of losing everything in order to be together, and the lines between loyalty and betrayal blur.

Our Review: With its fast pace and crisp dialogue, Bad Guy is the next must read for devotees of mob-themed fiction. The characters jump off the page with their logical and relatable goals and conflicts. An added plus is when the lines between who is truly good and who is truly bad keep the reader’s attention until the very end. Putting the roses on this particular cake is the snazzy cover art. Well done all the way around!

Based on a scale of 1-5, Bad Guy merits a 6.

  1. Sounds like a Mafia story with a difference, Ana and Kat, and the cover certainly suggests the atmosphere.
