He is a little bit scary, but no girl could ever been able to resist him. His father is the boss of the local mafia circle and Nero's true wish is to join it. That wish is ready to come true if he manage to earn Elle's trust and find out what she really saw that night!!!! He has a deadline for one month That's why from nowhere, Nero entered Elle's life and Elle entered Nero's I won't tell you much more about that book, but believe me when i tell you that you have to read it!!!!

I have to say that i admire Elle's character I didn't like that she took all the bullets in her shoulders, but i admire her loyalty not only to her friend, but in everyone I'd liked the way she was trying to protect Cloe. But i didn't like when she was trying to protect her torturers I liked Nero's change.

In the beginning, he didn't care for anyone except himself but when he start to know Elle, he changed He became more protective of her, more gentle Yes, he was still bossy and demanding, but it was for her own good I liked the development of their relation, even though in some point i just couldn't breath Every single one of them were unique and i loved them I really have a lot of questions about Chloe Maybe could we expected a book about Lucca and Chloe???

That's all for now I have to admit that i feel lost and i don't know how i will overstep that intension that was build inside me from reading that story But I want some more View all 88 comments.

I ended up liking the characters, and you know how much I love a possessive asshole, someone who would beat the crap out of someone for looking the h the wrong way, imagine what Nero could do to her bullies And despite it not being realistic at all because come on, high schoolers made men, and she suddenly was so mature, and their made men friends OTT much?

But it's not the diet where you think you don't even notice the lack of sugar, no, this is like one of those rice cakes that tastes like styrofoam and eating it you realize that you rather die from an overdose of lard than eat another styrofoam bite. Elle is a poor high schooler going to a fancy prep school and she witnesses a murder by some mob guys.

The boss wants to know if she saw them, so he sends his son, Nero, also a senior This book is odd. The boss wants to know if she saw them, so he sends his son, Nero, also a senior at the fancy prep school to infiltrate her secrets and find out what she knows. When he succeeds he'll be a made man. That's the plot. Let's address the ridiculous in this book 1. How is finding out what Elle saw going to finalize Nero's spot as a made man in the Italian mafia.

That seems rinky dink. Hell, that's it? I could be a made man in a second. Elle has gotten the shit kicked out of her all of high school and not just pushed around, no, she's had bones broken and endless bruises, but no one ever notices. How does not one teacher ever notice this? That seemed super far fetched that the teachers or any person of authority was never around. Why does finding out what Elle knows seem to be the only mafia thing Nero has ever done?

He may have experience fighting, but he seems like a regular hs kid besides it. I don't seen him as very mafia-y.

Chloe is the mayor's daughter and somehow that holds zero clout for her. It literally matters to no one, students, teachers, etc. I don't see that being true at a fancy and expensive prep school. The rest of the plot of the book is all about Nero and his gang protecting Elle and Chloe from all the bullies.

That's the rest of the book. Yay for them doing so, but again, it seems crazy intense the type of bullying that Elle is suffering. Maybe if this was some inner city ghetto school where they're overcrowded, underpaid, understaffed, etc. How is there never any one around. Nero was both nice and a controlling douche. Elle was what she was, a victim in a bad situation with no friends, but Chloe. The book wasn't bad, but it was really odd reading a high school mafia book.

It kind of felt like a show you'd see on the CW for teens, TV because they do get frisky. The ending is ridiculous. If I read anymore in the series it'll be for Chloe and Lucca.

I want to know what happened to her face. View all 11 comments. God help them. The book took me on a ride and i enjoyed every single minute of it!!!!! I won't go into detail, because it inevitably involves spoilers for those who may wish to try this story If you lov "Elle was dreading lunch. If you love bad boys, mystery, or stories about the mafia this book is it. To the author: Pleaseeeeeeeeeee make Chloe and Lucca a couple View all 3 comments.

I'm in the mood to read for a mafia romance books and this has been on my kindle for years. Originally, this is one of my entries in smutathon but I wasn't able to finish it due to my busy schedule. It's also my first Sarah Brianne novel. A mafia themed book loaded with drama and cliques.

The story is about Elle Buchanan. She's a senior high school student at Legacy Prep. High I'm in the mood to read for a mafia romance books and this has been on my kindle for years. High school is supposed to be memorable and fruitful, that isn't the case for Elle. It was horrible and traumatic.

She's bullied by everyone and she's defenseless just like her best friend, Chloe Masters. Being a working a student doesn't help her case as well. Good thing she has a scholarship, at least that lessens her burden. One night, she witnessed a crime at the diner and it caught the Caruso Mafia Boss' attention. He puts Nero Caruso on his first task by gaining Elle's trust and extract information about what she saw that night. Unexpectedly, he falls in love with her and he wants to protect her at all cost.

However, he needs to fulfill his job in the mafia family and he wants to prove that he deserved to be a part of it. I don't know about you guys but my main problem in this book was Nero himself. He's a jackass and I can't stand his possessiveness over Elle. How he treats Elle was absolutely disgusting: "Oh, I got her on her knees, but I want her crawling.

I'm the one with the dick, and the sooner you realize that, the easier this will be. Trust me, baby, you'll start to like that way. He's problematic and abusive. For his years of stay, I'm SURE he's aware of the rampant bullying going around his prep school and he just decided to protect Elle on their 4th year?

It's impossible. He even ignored Elle during those times until he was given a task. I dislike this guy even if he redeemed himself for Elle. As for Elle, I wish she has more backbone instead of being a martyr and enabling those bullies to be their personal punching bag.

What she and Chloe went through was disturbing because it's really brutal. They're physically, mentally, and emotionally abused. The rampant bullying was awful. I pity them to be honest. Overall, it's an okay start but I wish the series gets better and less dramatic. I have my eyes set on Lucca Caruso and Chloe Masters. Omg those two have chemistry.

I prefer Lucca than Amo. It's twice better if this was written in first person than in third person.

It was exactly what I needed! I enjoyed every single minute of it! The things she suffered and willingly bears to protect her friend, Chloe is so admirable.

I loved that about him! And I will fucking enjoy them screaming in pain. I had expected not to like the characters because I know the plot is a recipe for a disaster. Instead, I found myself totally absorbed with the story and the characters surprised me too, I ended up loving them.

It was a fast paced, suspenseful and sexy read! View all 23 comments. I absolutely fucking loved the fuck out of it! View 2 comments. On Friday evening I saw a post in a trusted Facebook group raving about the books so I Ipurchased Nero and settled in for what was sure to be an amazing series. It's now Sunday at pm and I've finally finished this epic fucking disaster!

On an average, I'll read between books on a weekend. All those reading hours were wasted as I determinedly plod through this mess.

Why I did not stop I really can't say. This is an epic manwhore and a completely untouched virgin story. Only one teacher seems to work at the school and she suffers silently with the bullying. Her only friend is Chloe who she tries her best to protect. Nero is the 18 year old son of a mob boss. He and his crew are Kings of the school.

He fucks anything that looks at him and only speaks to Elle at his father's command. While working , Elle witnesses a mob hit, Nero is commanded to get close to her to find out exactly what she knows. He's ordered to not be with any other girls during this time. Let me start by saying this is the weirdest writing style I've ever encountered.

It read like the author was confused as to exactly which tense she had planned to use. Confusing and frustrating as fuck! Then there's Nero, to say this boy was a manwhore is an understatement. While there are not explicit details we are left in no doubt as to what he gets up to. It isn't until the half way point I think that he realized he only wanted Elle. I'm not upset that he fucked everything that moved really because he and Elle were not together and when they finally got together he was loyal Then when they got together he started seeking out all her bullies to put the hurt on them?

Motherfucker too little too late!!! I cannot respect a hero who stood by and allowed that shit to continue for as long as it did! Nero and his guys were trying to get their button but they were supposedly bad asses nonetheless. However I don't think I've met more ineffective badasses in my life. They tried threatening people to find Elle's abusers but it wasn't until Lucca stepped in that anything was done. I'm not sure why Elle allowed things to get so bad, her dad was in a wheelchair but I would think that a school counselor or he principal or the police would've been able to help?

I want to say I liked Elle but I'm still not sure I did. She was strong at some points other times she was annoying as hell, she was mature sometimes other times she was not. Elle's parents were ostriches, they saw nothing and so did nothing though their daughter was bruised and battered and even had her hair cut off? Much of the plot of this book was utterly unbelievable. Even in fiction there's comes a point where a reader thinks the plot might be plausible, nothing here was believable at all.

Elle, I am going to have fun with you. Nero heard the bathroom door open right on cue. Stacy came out, showered and dressed. She headed for the door. Stacy beamed and jumped on top of him. No, he was not quite done with her tonight; he had only grown harder at the thought of Elle.

Nero was sure he would fuck Stacy until the thought of Elle disappeared. All the times she had been bullied, all the laughs and stares—she blamed them as much as the ones causing the actual pain. She learned to walk behind me when everyone started bullying us. However, yesterday he had decided no other girl was going to satisfy him.

His dick craved Elle. It will have her, too. His balls officially hated his guts. His dick had been inside so many girls, and then, when his dick had finally gone inside Elle, there was no comparison. Nero had to take a freezing-cold shower, one right after another, to ease the pain in his groin. View 1 comment.

And more than that, he is perfect for me. I don't make that statement lightly. He was absolute perfection. I've had book heroes that I've loved before, and some that I've joked about wishing were real, but seriously, if I ha Nero was perfection in fictional form. I've had book heroes that I've loved before, and some that I've joked about wishing were real, but seriously, if I had my choice of 1 guy that could walk out of my kindle and come to life, it would be Nero.

He was pure perfection. He was completely alpha but not in an annoying way , he was protective oh boy was he protective! And once he committed to me Elle, he was committed. He only wanted her, she was the only woman he could think of. I can't think of any other hero that actually made me giddy at the mere thought of reading him. I'll be perfectly honest and say, I didn't read the blurb before reading the book.

I had two trusted friends rec it to me aka torture me and decided to jump in blindly the first time I read it. So I wasn't prepared for the bullying aspect of the story line.

But the author did a fantastic job with it. It was heart breaking and awful and Elle was amazing for having dealt with that for so long. I have so much respect for her. And I think because of everything Elle had been through, that made me love Nero so much more because of his feelings when he found out the extent of her torture.

And it wasn't just Nero, Vincent and Amo's reactions were amazing. They were just as upset as Nero at Elle and Chloe's treatment. Vincent and Amo definitely gave me some warm fuzzy "Awwwe! I loved how Nero's feeling for Elle kinda snuck up on him and then completely took him over. And that's what I loved about him. They were pure genius! And masterpieces! And the way Nero set out to gather all the information he could and systematically went about achieving retribution was what I've wanted from every alpha in every book I've ever read.

As for bullying, I know there's at least one popular book out there with that as a theme, but since bullying typically comes with angst and I'm not typically a fan of that, I didn't read it. And I can't say bullying will ever be a type of book that I would seek out, but I'd definitely be willing to give said book a try in the future.

Edward Champlin reinterprets Nero's enormities on their own terms, as the self-conscious performances of an imperial actor with a formidable grasp of Roman history and mythology and a canny sense of his audience. He then murdered his mother, with whom he may have slept.

He killed his pregnant wife in a fit of rage then castrated and married a young freedman because he resembled her. He mounted the public stage to act a hero driven mad or a woman giving birth and raced a ten-horse chariot in the Olympic games. He probably instigated the burning of Rome, for which he then ordered the spectacular punishment of Christians, many of whom were burned as human torches to light up his gardens at night.

Without seeking to rehabilitate the historical monster, Champlin renders Nero more vividly intelligible by illuminating the motives behind his theatrical gestures, and revealing the artist who thought of himself as a heroic figure. Tacitus, Suetonius and Cassius Dio. History Biography Ancient History Nonfiction More details. Edward Champlin 5 books 4 followers.

Search review text. This is not a book for people approaching Roman Imperial history for the first time.

Champlin's Nero is much narrower in scope, attempting to understand why Nero is so memorable a figure in later antiquity a cult hero for the Greeks and a sort of anti-christ to the Jews and Christians , second only to Alexander the Great in singularity, Champlin affirms, in his epilogue.

Champlin determines this by triangulating the distorting perspective of both the later aristocratic historians who despised him and his populist dissolution, and Nero's own grandiose ideology, to develop a picture of this raving mad, Macchiaveillian decadent. Champlin, perhaps dishonestly, reads Nero as a figure with constant purpose, although this does lead to some interesting inferences on the reality behind such things as Nero's last words that were distorted by Suetonius and Tacitus' hatred for Nero's memory.
