Criminal Movies

Based on the novel by Cora Reilly. As the heir to the Chicago mafia, Dante is logical to a fault. The only thing Valentina has in common with him is being a widow. When Dante chooses her as his next wife, it's a business decision made by a man still haunted from losing the love of his life. But Valentina won't repeat the lovelessness of her first marriage. As she struggles with her own desire for her new husband, little does she know -- his heart may have already started beating for her.

In Bound by the Past movie, 8 years after Dante took a bullet for Valentina, a mafia war rages between Chicago and Las Vegas. With a world of bloodshed knocking on their door, they must decide how to protect their daughter, and their marriage.

Fay Thompson thought she understood the mafia world -- but the arrival of a scheming rival, a shocking pregnancy, and her lover's arrest will force her to become the Mafia Queen she was always meant to be, or lose Kent Lippert forever.
