The Sweetest Oblivion

The Sweetest Oblivion is the debut novel and series opener of Danielle Lori's Made series, a dark mafia romance set among New York's Cosa Nostra families.

Elena Abelli — "Sweet Abelli" to the world — is the poised, favored daughter of mafia boss Salvatore Abelli, carrying a private guilt beneath her graceful surface.

When her younger sister Adriana becomes engaged to Nicolas Russo, the feared and magnetic Don of another powerful family — a match arranged to seal a deal between the two families — Elena wants nothing to do with him.

What she feels instead, the more time she's forced to spend in his orbit, is a pull she has no business indulging toward the man promised to her sister.

As duty, loyalty, and a forbidden desire collide, Elena and Nico's attraction grows impossible to ignore. Lori delivers the slow-burning tension, possessive hero, and simmering banter that made the Made series a mainstay of the genre — alongside explicit content and the moral grey areas of mafia life.
