#1 Twisted Loyalties - Fabiano Scuderi (younger brother of Aria, Gianna, and Lily, and who is now the enforcer for the mafia in Las Vegas) meets and falls in love with Leona, a nice but destitute girl who knows nothing about the mob. Bound By Blood Anthology - contains a novella about Matteo & Gianna, and short stories about Aria & Luca, Lily & Romero, and Growl & Cara. #7 Bound by the Past - Dante’s past and his and Valentina’s experiences after the first year of their marriage. #6 Bound by Love - Aria’s and Luca’s story continues from after their first novel to the next 10 years of their lives together. Cara is given to their enforcer Growl, as a deterrent to other mafia men. Cara’s father, a high-ranking mobster, betrayed and stole from the head of the Las Vegas mafia. #5 Bound by Vengeance - If this series was a TV show, this novel would be the episode that’s really a pilot for a spin-off series. #4 Bound by Temptation - Lily, Aria’s youngest sister, and Aria’s bodyguard Romero Cancio fall in love and have to overcome the marriage her father arranged for her to a man his age. He chases after her for months, catches her, and they marry. #3 Bound by Hatred - Gianna Scuderi, Aria’s sister, runs away before her arranged marriage to Matteo Vitiello, Luca’s brother, despite the fact that they like each other and made out at Aria’s and Luca’s wedding. Dante is the head of the mafia in Chicago. #2 Bound by Duty - first year of Dante Cavallaro’s marriage to his second wife Valentina Aresco.

#0 Luca Vitiello - Luca’s POV of Bound by Honor, written a couple of years after the start of the series. Luca is the heir to and eventual leader of the mafia in New York. #1 Bound by Honor - first two months of Luca Vitiello’s and Aria Scuderi’s arranged marriage. The romances between most of the couples are wonderful and most of the sibling relationships are awesome too. Cora Reilly’s Born In Blood series, its Camorra Chronicles sequel, and the next generation sequel series Sins of the Father are so damn good.
