MANY UNNECESSARY CHILDISH DRAMA. MOST OF THE DRAMA IS ABOUT THE FAMILY, MAFIA, ENEMIES, AND THEMSELVES. This book did both – I feel the storyline was well written and kept me wanting to know what happens next. Both Conner and Noemi would emotionally leap during this story. One minute they're just attracted to each other, but then the next, they randomly decide they want every part of them - their mind, body, and soul. I didn't understand where these deep feelings came from. Seems to me it was done to push the romance forward and give the characters a deeper connection than they really had. At one point, Conner even thinks, "How had I gone from begrudgingly agreeing to marry a woman to obsessing over her thoughts and feelings?". I'm here wondering the exact same thing!

The relationship between him and Neomi is an arranged marriage between two powerful families. Besides, Connor never thought that he would fall for the silent girl, Neomi.

SILENT VOWS is a story of power and control, murder and obsession, betrayal and revenge, secrets and lies, family and relationships, friendships and love. The fast paced premise is captivating and intriguing but not as dark and gritty as many of the Mafia/crime world story lines; the romance is erotic and intense; the characters are determined, desperate and dynamic. Guns, killing, death, car accidents, childhood trauma, abuse, adoption, high on violence, mafia and arrange marriage.

Silent vows is a novel that tells a nurturing relationship between a couple ( Irish Mafia heir Connor Reid and Neomi). Although speech is morally neutral per se, the Epistle of James ( 3:1–12) and writers of the monastic tradition see silence as the only effective means of neutralizing a tendency towards sins of the tongue. [11] There is an ongoing dialogue between Benedictine and Cistercian which speaks of a "monastic archetype" characterized by peace and silence. [12] Trappist [ edit ] Cistercian monastics promote contemplative meditation. [11] Part of the emphasis is on achieving spiritual ascent, but monastic silence also functions to avoid sin.

She kept on saying that she’ll make plans to runaway with her brother. Talking about how she won’t let another man control her.But silence isn’t only observed by spiritual leaders. It’s been used by advocates and protestors to bring awareness to important causes. Conner es sobrino de uno de los jefes de la mafia irlandesa y ellos quieren recuperar el control y el poder que tenían en el hell´s kitchen por lo que él es el candidato para el matrimonio y elige a Noemí por su discapacidad ya que lo ve como una ventaja una chica silenciosa que lo va a dejar hacer su vida pero las cosas no resultan como él las planeó. Though you can observe a vow of silence at home, some people prefer to do it while on a retreat. Here are a few places to find silent retreats. Vipassana Silence at mealtimes may have been a requirement in Daoist monasteries, religious scholars say. The Prophet Muhammad is believed to have said, “Anyone who believes in God and the Last Day should either speak well or remain silent.” A great narration from Kai Kennicott and Wen Ross as they do a fantastic job giving life to Connor and Noemi capturing every nuance of emotion making this a fantastic audio book to listen to on my daily commute. I do have to deduct marks though for Kai’s attempt at an Irish accent when voicing the parts of Connor’s grandparents. It was the only jarring thing in an otherwise great performance.
