Title: Sparrow
Author: L.J. Shen
Genre: Contemporary Romance/Mafia
Published: March 8, 2016
Troy Brennan.
Every southie in Boston knows that name. The son of a dead mobster. The heartthrob with steel blue eyes. "The Fixer" who can make or break you in this city.
Oh, and my new husband.
Sparrow Raynes.
No one seemed to remember my name up until he barged into my life. And me? All I ever wanted was to get a decent job and to run away from the damn neighborhood Brennan and I grew up in. Run away from him and his likes.
I have dreams, big ones, but I doubt he'd ever let me chase them. I have no idea why Brennan, practically Bostonian royalty, decided to kidnap me, marry me and cage me in his beautiful penthouse.
But I do know this: pissing off this man will not do me any good. At all.
Warning: This book contains graphic violence and adult situations some may find offensive.

5 Awesome Stars
Troy is a mobster’s son, desperately searching for the people responsible for the murder of his father.
Sparrow has grown up knowing about Troy, but has been more than content keeping her distance
a!er hearing the horror stories that surround him.
The story begins on their wedding day. A couple of weeks before, Troy ripped Sparrow from her life
and informed her they were ge#ng married, but gave no reason why. She couldn’t refuse, as her Dad
works for him and her Mom le! years before. There is no one to help her not that anyone will argue
with Troy Brennen anyway.
This story intrigued me from the start, and I loved Sparrow. She was scared but refused to bow down.
Although she didn’t have a choice, she wasn’t about to make it easy for Troy. And I thoroughly
enjoyed the dialogue between them. It was very well wri)en. And I loved the way there rela*onship
+owed and evolved.
Troy is not the tradi*onal hero but I couldn’t help but like him. As I read on, it was great to discover
the many layers that make him the great character he is.
This is not a typical love story but its original and that for me made it refreshing. I loved every word
wri)en. Well done L.J. Shen and thank you for a great story.
