Lydia
The moment our eyes first met, I felt it. I’m not even sure what it was that I felt but I got the distinct feeling that this man would change my life forever.
A week later I’m a witness to something that wasn’t meant for my eyes. Now, I’m locked up inside a bedroom, in a far off compound, in a foreign country.
Emilio
What she saw should’ve cost her her life. Anyone else on the planet, and it wouldn’t have even been a second thought. But something in me wouldn’t let me do it. Instead, I bring her to my home. Lock her in a guest bedroom until I can discern what the hell this feeling is that she stirs in me. With each passing day, the feeling grows, pulling me closer to her instead of pushing me away. I work to maintain my control around her, to preserve the icy exterior the rest of the world receives from me, but she’s making it difficult.
I’m realizing I’m not letting her go because she could be a threat to the family but because doing so would be an even bigger threat to my heart.

Oh my damn!! Oh my damn!!! Tiffany Patterson absolutely slayed her first dark romance. Dark romance has a new queen. Absolutely freaking loved the alpha dog Emilio and the female heroine Lydia. So the reason that the book is called Locked Doors is because Lydia doesn’t like locked doors. I will let you read to find out why. Also in this book we meet other people whose story must be told. People like Christian, Mataeo, and Lorenzo. So for a quick synopsis Emilio is a mobster and Lydia sees something that she shouldn’t. It’s told in different points of view, no cheating, no cliffhangers, and a hea. I highly recommend this book. Tiffany Patterson did the damn thang. You won’t be disappointed.

Anothe hit from Ms. Patterson. I always love alpha men with dark souls and Emilio did not disappoint. Lydia was feistuand i like that as opposed to weak and a pushover. Even in Lydia”s circumstance she still kept Emilio on his toes.
Loved the steamy scenes and the entire book itself. Now, my hope is for Lorenzo and Matteo to have their own story.

OMG!!! She killed it! I’ve been a fan for a few years now and I have to say, Tiffany Patterson gets better and BETTER with each book! She NEVER lets us down. After reading Locked Doors, I am again anticipating her next book. Damn, I’ve GOT to learn to speak and read Italian! Emilio and Lydia’s story made me smile, laugh, cry and curse. I got some strange looks in Cici’s when I first started it because of laughing out loud at one point and no one else was at my table?.

Tiffany Patterson never disappoints. Locked Doors was a very good read. Emilio Genovese is one sexy alpha male!!? He and Lydia made a perfect couple. The story was captivating from the beginning to end. I am looking forward to Lorenzo and Mateo’s story next.

This book had me at Chapter 1. Emilio was not playing with Ms. Lydia at all. I love this author she tell such compelling stories and this story was no different. No spoilers but I definitely recommend this book to others.

Ms. Tiffany I found myself thinking of ways to get out of work that I may focus on this story. I love the realness of this book! He is who he is ( as is true with your characters) and there was no changing him. I also love the tie-in to Rescue 4. I could see why they were written simultaneously. I’m on pins and needles for Christian’s story because his mom….

Ok Tiffany Patterson you never disappoint this story had me on the edge of my seat wanting more. I’ve always loved Italian men and Emilio just made me love them more. Anxiously awaiting the next installment in this series.

Emilio (capo) and Lydia’s story was beautiful. Emilio was a strong dominant make who fell in love when he least expected it. Lydia who becomes a prisoner after being a witness decides to make the best of the situation. I loved this book and wish I didn’t finish it so quickly. I can’t wait to hear about the other cousins and Christian.

Ms. Tiffany Patterson does not disappoint! I’ve enjoyed everyone of her books that I’ve read since being introduced to her writing early last year. Locked Doors is no exception. I loved Emilio and Lydia’s story and how they made it to their HEA, after the way they originally met! Well worth the read! Can’t wait for the next book in the series, Christian, Matteo or Lorenzo? Doesn’t matter, I’ll read it!

I’m in love with Emilio Genovese! He doesn’t need Lydia, he has me!
I loved this book, I loved everything from start to finish, the story was well written, which is expected as this is one of my favourite authors. Even though Emilio is the Capo of the Genovese crime family, you fall for him and how he is with Lydia, the love making was on fire you could feel the heat jumping off the pages.
I’m eager to read more about this couple and the rest of the crime family including their handsome cousin Emmanuel.
Brilliant read with great potential for more stories about The Genovese’s.

I absolutely love your writing, and Locked Doors did not disappoint. I love how you develop the characters, given Lydia the understanding that she can stand for what’s right but also understand the need for things to be fixed a certain way. Emilio is everything in my dreams, I love how protective and certain he is I also love that he don’t take no shit from nobody. I was mad that he scared Lydia with killing the man directly in front of her, but he had to reinstall that fear back into her. Overall an amazing book.
Whose next Christian or the Twins MFM. The twins need a spit fire to surely know how how to handle Matteo and dote on Lorenzo, someone they can equal love and share.

You never ever disappoint your faithful readers. Yes, Emilio (Capo) is the epitome of gangster but he only killed those who harmed his family. No more spoilers. I already read it twice and I loved the chemistry between Emilio and Lydia. I can’t wait to read Christian’s story. I know the twins book or books will be off the chain. Faithful reader for life.

Where do I start? I absolutely loved this novel. I’m a faithful Tiffany Patterson reader and this novel did not disappoint. I’ve read it like ten times! The chemistry between Emilio and Lydia was sizzling hot! I loved Emilio’s alpha persona. Loved the way he put his family first. I also loved how falling in love caught him by surprise. The fact that Lydia was a big girl impressed me. I loved how she also had a strong personality and was not one to cower. The secondary characters were also an added bonus. Loved them! I can’t wait to read Christian’s story !

? I felt like I was right in the middle of the story. I found myself holding my breath several times. I laughed out loud. Emilio left me confused several times. I was an emotional wreck and loved every second. I might have a little crush on Lorenzo and Matteo, their polar opposite personalities gave me whiplash.

This was a great book, I loved it!!! Emilio and Lydia’s story was so good. I loved how Emilio kept surprising himself by the things he said and did for Lydia and his reaction to her from their first meeting and when he realized she had escaped. Great story, loved it from beginning to end. Can’t wait for the next book!

This is my favorite story of the two books, enjoyed Lydia and Emilio. I look forward to reading more of this power couple, and I hope Matteo gets a HEA with someone who’ll be the softness to his roughness. Kudos Ms Patterson

Miss Patterson, awesome as usual. OMG Emilio is my perfect alpha. I loved Lydia’s fire. I needed this fix! I am so glad I found your books. I know you have a life outside of writing, but can you just keep these books coming? No breaks please!!!! Am almost afraid to start Bella. My heart couldn’t take it.

I couldn’t put this book down. I loved getting to know more of the Genovese family. Emilio & Lydia were quite the firecracker pairing from the beginning. I will say the road to HEA is never a dull one with Tiffany. I can’t to hear more about this family.

This is my favorite book out of all her work I’ve read & especially my man Emilio! I can’t stop thinking about Lydia & Emilio story! ?♥️ I devoured Locke ? Doors ? (stand-alone HEA) & just can’t over it! ??? Highly recommend ?? because their story was so easy going, a page turner with such ease, and still held an edginess to their captivating story!! ✨?
Lydia who’s an American girl on a vacation in Italy & being at the wrong place, wrong time, and gets kidnapped. Lydia aroused something within Emilio who’s head of the Genovese crime family ? & decides to keep her alive. Their story begins from there on. I know! ??♀️Typical common story??♀️, BUT there’s just so much more to it than that?? like ugh ??? first page hooked me right off the bat! ? Not dark, not too much, and you can FEEL the connection? between the main couple & see the growth within them!
I’ll let my Emilio do the REAL?? talking:
“The guards will be the least of your concerns should you try to hold back from me the screams that are mine.”
“You’re mine, bella. Your body, mind, and soul all belong to me!” I growl as I pound into her, attempting to drill that conclusion into her, to imprint it on her body and very soul. She is mine. There isn’t one part of her that doesn’t belong to me.
She hates locked doors, my mind reminds me, but I shove that thought aside and insert the key, turning it and locking the door behind me. She won’t be getting away this time. ??
