    About this ebook

    She fears the dark.
    He rules it.

    Her dresses are too tight, her heels too tall. She laughs too loudly, eats without decorum, and mixes up most sayings in the book. Little do most know it’s just a sparkly disguise, there to hide one panic attack at a time.

    Nobody can crack Gianna’s facade . . . no one anyway, until he comes along.

    Most see a paragon of morality; a special agent upholding the law. In the New York underworld, others know him as a hustler, a killer, his nature as cold as the heart of ice in his chest. Christian Allister has always followed the life plan he’d envisioned in his youth, beneath the harsh lights of a frigid, damp cell. With a proclivity for order and the number three, he’s never been tempted to veer off course. But perhaps one should never say never . . .

    One winter night and their lives intertwine. She hates him—his stone-cold demeanor, his arrogance and too-perceptive eye—but over the years, even as their games consist of insulting each other’s looks and intelligence, she begins to live to play with him.

    Nowhere in Christian’s plans had he ever prepared for Gianna. She’s chaos embodied, not his type, and married, but none of that can stop his eyes from following her wherever she goes.

    All along, she doesn’t even know that she’s his—his frustration, his fascination.

    His maddest obsession.

      I’m obsessed! Completely and utterly obsessed with Christian Allister. Danielle Lori you satisfied my alpha loving needs with this fabulous and entertaining mafia romance. The Maddest Obsession has everything I like and enjoy in a mafia romance. It’s dark, brutal and sexy.

      I have to admit that when I was introduced to Gianna in the first book The Sweetest Oblivion she didn’t make a good impression on me. I was intrigued but that was it. Gianna knocked the socks off me in TMO. She is a fantastic heroine. No filter and honest with a complicated family history. The perfect match for a dirty fed agent.
      The hero Christian. Oh my! As cold and ruthless he can be there’s a soft and vulnerable side to him when it comes to Gianna. I knew his past must have been rough to make him the person he is. He’s a killer but there’s so much more to him. So many layers and Gianna is the only one to peel them off of him. Their chemistry is explosive. The build up is deliciously sensual in the way of their bantering and the push and pull. They both give as good as they get. It’s fun and so sexy at the same time. Christian’s obsession with Gianna goes back many years and I enjoyed the little twists and turns along the way. He is one smitten man and it was sooo good!

      The other characters from book 1 - The Sweetest Oblivion appears too and it was incredible to be back with Nico “Ace” Russo and Elena. I recommend reading it before The Maddest Obsession cause it so worth it. Especially because of Ace.
      With The Maddest Obsession Danielle Lori has created a mafia series I can add to my favorites along with book 1. The Made series is a must read. Her prose is poignant, haunting and gritty. Her character development and storytelling are flawless leaving me wanting more of her words. I especially hope I get more from The Made Men. I don’t want to leave this world of hers.
    • 5/5
      Christian for sure is a character ... both of them have had a tough childhood, have taken bad decisions and so on, both with their own insecurities.. for sure this isn’t a traditional relationship or a normal one, he for sure is obsessed, bordering on stalkerish but what i like is that they addressed that issue from the start. It didn’t have senseless fights that dragged on for days and days... all in all i enjoyed reading the book

      Gianna and Christian are mafia excellence. Their banter is so much fun. I love them.
