He was a vision of power and privilege.
Ruthless arrogance personified.
A total stranger and an irresistible challenge.

I approached him in a busy casino and felt the sting of his brutal rejection.
Then I did something incredibly brazen. Impulsive. Reckless.

I stole from him.

The object was inconsequential, only worth a handful of dollars.
I didn’t do it for the money; it was about making a statement.

I went back home thousands of miles away without giving him a second thought until I spotted those quicksilver eyes glaring at me across a busy nightclub.

It was too impossible to be a coincidence.
Yet, there he was, seething with a violent promise of retribution.

He thought he’d intimidate me.
Hunt me down and make me pay.
What he didn’t realize was I don’t scare easily.
My name is Giada Genovese, and I’m a goddamn mafia princess.

**Impossible Odds is the fourth book in The Five Families Series but can be read as a standalone novel. This book is a mafia romance containing adult themes and may not be suitable for sensitive readers.











Within a year of self-publishing her first book, Jill Ramsower quit her job as an attorney and dedicated her days to churning out romantic adventures. She likes to think of her books as contemporary romance with a touch of fantasy—at its core, her writing is about the connection between two people. Sometimes that connection involves a little magic…

With Jill’s books, you can count on confident heroines, plenty of steamy tension, and deliciously assertive leading men. There are no guarantees in life, but with her books, you know everything will work out in the end. However, a perfect ending would not be nearly as satisfying without a seemingly insurmountable challenge. Jill loves to add plenty of adversity in her stories, creating unforgettably dynamic characters and sneaky plot twists you will never see coming.

Jill is a Texan, born and raised. She manages the hectic social calendars for her three active children and occasionally spends an evening with her dashing husband. Aside from being an author and a mom, she's a travel junkie and loves to read when she is not lost in her own stories.

My Review
5 Stars
 Impossible Odds by Jill Ramsower is book 4 in The Five Families Series.  This is the story of Giada Genovese and Primo.  I have read the previous books (and Loved them!) but feel you can make this a standalone book.  Giada is the cousin of Maria who story was told in that book but this will be Giada story with Primo who we have also met in the previous books.  Primo had a terrible childhood from loosing his family to living on the streets until around twelve he was taken in by Naz who is a Cartel Kingpin.  Now in their present day Primo is a strong part of the Cartel.  Giada is a mafia princess who is a person onto herself.  Giada works to be independent but when she happens to see Primo in Vegas she does try to catch his attention but he turns her down.  Giada does a little revenge steeling thinking to server her justice to him.  But Primo ends up tracking her down and that starts their dance to love.  Their story along with this series is nothing but a page turning read for me. 0
