On The Mob
(2024)The Cuppacio Twins
(The third book in the Put It on the Mob series)
A novel by Lisa Austin
With the Cuppacio family now settled into Jagoda Bay, the past of Chicago can no longer haunt them from the graves holding the men who made their childhoods hell. Now, it’s all about moving forward, elevating, and marriage. Choosing to unite with the Rinaldi Mafia brought fortune and requirements. In order for the men to have permanent seats at the Rinaldi table, they must marry, and their future brides must meet the standards set by the Rinaldi family.Unfortunately, marriage is not an objective as much as it is an obligation to some of the Cuppacio men.
Ezio has fulfilled his duty, and even though it took an overdose and a year of cat-and-mouse games, he is the first Cuppacio to meet the requirements. Now, the remaining Cuppacio men must complete the task at hand, but the crew’s twins have no desire to fulfill their obligations to the Rinaldi Mafia and have no plans to search for and secure women to wed.
Twin one, Metavello, has put zero thought into his future union. Metavello enjoys a good time and feels that because he understands women, his selected wife will be the best of the bunch. He knows when it’s his turn, all he has to do is pay a woman to carry his last name, and all will be well. Money, time, and attention are all women want in Metavello’s eyes, and at twenty-six years old, he has plenty of all three. But what happens when all of his plans go up in flames? Metavello stumbles across a woman who already has money but no need for his attention or time. He finds himself intrigued with “Ms. Independent” and wonders if she is the perfect woman to secure his position in the Rinaldi Mafia. But “Ms. Independent” may not be so independent after all, and the standards set for the Cuppacios’ future brides—Ms. Independent doesn’t meet them.
Twin two, Renello has removed himself from the entire Cuppacio family. While everyone else has moved on from their lives back in Chicago, Renello is stuck questioning everything he knew over the last seventeen years. Seeing his long-lost dead cousin, Pia, at Ezio’s wedding, Renello now despised Ezio, his once favorite cousin. Having thought Pia perished in a house fire during their adolescent years, Renello now feels his purpose is to reignite a once kindred relationship. But Pia is not the young girl Renello once knew, and she also wants nothing to do with the Cuppacio men. Renello is determined to get to know the woman she has become over the lost years, even if it requires him to outcast himself from his crew and keep watch of his Pia until she accepts him back into her life.
With Metavello and Renello uninterested in hunting for wives to concrete the merge of two mob families that were once enemies, what will happen to the Cuppacios and Rinaldi families now?
