#Review and #Giveaway - Easter's Lilly by Judy Serrano

It was Easter Sunday; the day Lilly's life went from safe and comfortable to dangerously unfamiliar. Her transformation takes her from a small town girl having an affair with a low ranked gangster in the Montiago crime syndicate, to a woman of grace and fortitude married to the head of the organization. Easter's Lilly is an inspired journey from the idyllic to the darker side of self-discovery. Read as the over-privileged brothers embark on their journey that twists and turns down the road of unbridled passion in this first book of the series.




Don't let the simple cover fool you, this is one book you need to read right away.


The story is romantic, yet fast-paced, suspenseful and sure to grab you with both covers and have you captivated till the very last page.


Lilly falls in love with Johnny, rather blindly, but I think we can all relate to that. When she is warned how dangerous he is, she still won't stay away. I think in a way, I fell in love with his character right away, too.


Once tangled up with the Montiago family, the pace of the book quickens. Because Lilly is soon left pregnant and without Johnny. Don't worry because the mob takes care of it's own and things are going to get complicated!


Judy Serrano created a great cast of characters for this first book. I love trilogies and I can't wait to see how the drama unfolds over the next two books, Brother Number 3 and Relatively Close.


You can order your copy of Easter's Lilly from Amazon and be sure to check out Judy Serrano's blog for updates on her writing and more about the other Motiago brothers.
