Book Synopsis

Since his brother’s death, Benny Bianchi has been nursing his grudge against the woman he thinks led to his brother’s downfall. He does this to bury the feelings he has for Francesca Concetti, his brother’s girl. But when Frankie takes a bullet while on the run with Benny’s cousin’s woman, Benny has to face those feelings.

The problem is Frankie has decided she’s paid her penance. Penance she didn’t deserve to pay. She’s done with Benny and the Bianchi family. She’s starting a new life away from Chicago and her heartbreaking history.

Benny has decided differently.

But Frankie has more demons she’s battling. Demons Benny wants to help her face. But life has landed so many hard knocks on Frankie she’s terrified of believing in the promise of Benny Bianchi and the good life he’s offering.

Frankie’s new life leads her to The ‘Burg, where Benny has ties, and she finds she not only hasn’t succeeded in getting away, she’s doesn’t want to.

    You can't go wrong with a KA novel. I've read all of her books and no one tells a story like her. This is no different, brilliant from beginning to end.

  • Frankie and Benny

    All I can say is WOW. They are such a hot couple from beginning to end. It is a tad bit crazy how Frankie seems to get in so much trouble. Benny is so refreshing to read about a man who from the beginning know he wants a woman and goes about securing happiness for the both of them.

  • Awesome yet again!

    I love Kristen Ashley so much, I pre-order her books. "The Promise" was the latest...but not the best. I appreciated Benny's tender and silent alpha-ness, really, I did...but would it have hurt the story if maybe he kicked one or two bad guy butts (like Layne in "Golden Trail" or Colt in "For You")? Frankie was much in the same boat. She seemed to be missing the secret ingredient that made KA's female protagonists so friggin' lovable - their sweet bad-a**ness (like Nina in "The Gamble" and Rocky in "Golden Trail"). Sigh. Please don't let this be a shift towards a kinder, gentler writing! :-)

  • Meh, just ok

    I love KA. I waited so long ... Anticipating this book ... Built up by the drama in At Peace, because Benny said some harsh words to Frankie. And then in The Promise, that drama sloped downwards... I will continue to buy KA's books, because she's awesome, but I just expected more angst between people who held a grudge for 8 years. Like Lanie and Hop? No grudge, but Totally hot after all those years. Shy and tabby, hot too. Deck and Emme? Years later, they' burn hot. Benny and Frankie? Water thrown on them.

  • A must read

    Kristen Ashley is one if my favorite romance authors. I suggest reading the Rock Chick series first then the Burg series. You won't be disappointed. Great plots with sexy alpha males that you can't help but fall in love with.

  • Another winner
