Mini Review: Venetian Love Knots by Normandie Alleman

In Venice, Allison Fox will find love in the arms of two men. Her past collides with her future in a battle for her heart. Which one

will win?

Travelling to Venice to be the maid of honour in her best friend’s wedding sounds like a great vacation, and a romantic way to spend Valentine’s Day. But when Allison Fox discovers who the best man is, she is torn between duty and self-preservation.

It has taken Allison four years to put her tumultuous relationship with the rodeo cowboy behind her. A violent incident ripped them apart. Now Allison must find a way to face her past and find closure with her old flame. But will she be able to put the past behind her?

Cole is the Texas cowboy has never got over his love for Allison. But when he declares his love for her after all this time, is she strong enough to walk away from the intense passion they share?

For years Nico, a handsome Italian, was committed to nothing but
his work. Nico never expected he would meet an American beauty who would awaken in him a desire to love again. Once he finds her, Nico vows to never let Allison go.
It will be a Valentine’s Day to remember, but who will win Allison’s heart?

Venetian Love Knots started off with me completely loving Allison. I respect a woman who can shoot, and I loved that she was able to see that she was afraid for good reason. Then I met Nico and I came completely unhinged. They had this instant chemistry that was obvious but not annoying. And to top off their relationship, they were both adults. They weren’t fighting their attraction to each other, or playing the “what if he doesn’t like me” game. They saw their chemistry and wanted to get to know each other. I even did a little happy dance for them!

Then Allison broke my heart and I wanted to break her face.

What bought on this sudden change in emotions? Cole. Allison’s ex-douche bag jerk-face boyfriend. I now understand why she almost shot his ignorant ass. Oh yeah I just went there (snaps fingers and rolls neck). Cole! UGH!!! He was so darn aggravating, and disrespectful, I just wanted to scream. But all the blame can’t be placed on him because Allison’s ditzy butt went along with it, even though she had a perfectly nice, respectful, and yummy man in Nico. I’m all for a little fun in your bedroom, but you have to respect yourself and the person your with has to respect you too.
