Cora’s childhood was tough because she was an immigrant living in Germany. Her mother did her best. Unfortunately, money was scarce. Cora’s last name was enough to mark her as an immigrant.
She felt like an outcast and had to work harder than everyone else to get good grades. That sense of isolation stayed with Cora. She remembers what it felt like for the people in her community to view her as a foreigner. Those experiences inform some of her stories.
Best Cora Reilly Books
Cora still calls Germany home. Her family includes a cute collie and a cute but crazy man. Even though she has a law degree, the author prefers to spend her days writing and discussing novels. Cora’s best books:
Bound By Honor: Luca Vitiello was the most sought-after bachelor in the city, and for a good reason. It wasn’t just his wealth and good looks. Luca had an animalistic charisma that mesmerized women.
Aria couldn’t deny the young man’s magnetism. However, she also knew the truth. Luca was not your average bad boy. Hidden behind his striking gray eyes was a predator, a blood-soaked monster.
His reputation was well-earned in the circles Aria frequented. After all, the man had casually crushed his cousin’s throat. One day, the New York Famiglia would bow to Luca as their new Capo. His destiny was written in stone.
Aria wanted nothing to do with him. Unfortunately, her own destiny was also decided. The mafia princess’s beauty was unrivaled. Many people saw it as a gift. But Aria’s looks had stolen her life.
As the daughter of a leading Chicago mob family, Aria was expected to marry Luca. Their union was a political ploy meant to secure peace between two dynasties.
No one cared that Aria was afraid of Luca’s brutality. They expected the girl to play her part diligently. Escape was not an option. Luca would hunt her down no matter where she went. Her only hope was to win his affection.
People told Aria that Luca had no heart. But the girl would find it, break the walls hiding it, and worm her way into Luca’s soul. The only way to survive the future Capo’s wrath was to become the most important person in Luca’s life.
Sweet Temptation: Cassio’s world was harsh. When his wife died, he mourned her. He also did what he could to care for his two small children. But Cassio had an empire to run and couldn’t afford to let his attention falter.
Otherwise, Philadelphia would slip out of his hands. Cassio needed a helper. Other men married for love. But Cassio’s world had strict rules and traditions. One chose a wife for the function she served. Pleasure was a secondary consideration.
Although, Cassio would be lying if he said he would have rejected Guilla. Yes, she was too young, barely of age. But Guilla was disturbingly beautiful, and Cassio couldn’t have asked for a better woman to warm his bed.
Unfortunately for Guilla, she did not have a say in the matter. The girl knew from an early age that her father would choose her mate. However, Cassio was so much older. More importantly, he had two small children.
What did Guilla know about children? She had never held a baby in her life. What business did she have raising two kids?
If that wasn’t bad enough, it was clear that Cassio expected her to bow to his leadership. He did not expect his wife to relate to him on equal footing. But that wouldn’t do. Her mother had warned her. She told Guilla that powerful men like Cassio wouldn’t tolerate insolence.
But the girl had no intention of falling in line. If she couldn’t choose a better, age-appropriate husband, she would make do with the one life had given her. She would create the sort of marriage she admired.
Clearly, Cassio wanted a nanny, possibly even an innocent child bride. But he would get a proper wife. Guilla wouldn’t stop fighting until she secured the happy family she deserved.
