41 years between the two of them...
Giuditta Franco is a singer who has just turned 21, born into a family of musicians, who has probably always sung, but who also decided to train her voice by studying at the Conservatory.
The beauty of her velvety timbre, aided by impeccable vocal technique, reminds us of a forgotten, storytelling style, for which some of the greats of the past even created a precise definition for this way of singing: "crooner." And these greats range from Frank Sinatra, to Nat "King" Cole, to Tony Bennet, but also, on the female side, from Lena Horne, to Rosemary Clooney, to the very famous Diana Krall and Norah Jones.
Giuditta sings with a deep, velvety timbre, characterized by persuasive low notes and sparkling, firm, and never aggressive high notes, thus accompanying you into a dimension of true music, harmonically complex, melodically enchanting. All characteristics that find authentic exaltation and full appreciation in the great repertoire of classic bossa nova.
Pietro Pasinato is no less. A 20-year-old, excellent guitarist who, alongside rigorous academic studies at the Conservatory, has always maintained curiosity and dedication to other musical genres, primarily jazz, Brazilian music, and why not, with a nod to rock and blues.
His technique is unrivaled; it is a "metabolized" technique that, despite his young age, allows Pietro to focus on the nuances of the specific style he chooses to tackle each time: a kind of extremely elegant Zelig at the service of great music.
Giuditta and Pietro represent a mix as perfect as it is exclusive in today's young music scene. Far from being servants of a commercial system that would push them into completely different areas, both in terms of content and media space, they have instead chosen to ride the dangerous tiger of past masterpieces, a repertoire in which all the greats of all time have already expressed themselves.
It's a challenge that I know is already won, and it's no coincidence that I decided to capture it in an album that will make it clear to that more curious and attentive audience, far from the sirens of mass communication.
Retrato Brasileiro is the title of one of Baden Powell's most famous songs, which also perfectly describes the meaning of this album: a meaning that is even better captured intimately by the very famous song "Chega de Saudade," which means "No More Longing," and in the original lyrics is dedicated to a woman. But we want to interpret this text with a transferred meaning, dedicating the statement "No More Longing" to Great Music.
No more longing for the Great Brazilian Music of the Bossa Nova era, from all that audience tired of the plastic clichés imposed by the great media circus of contemporaneity: Great Music returns, and it does so not with an old glory on the decline, but with two very young artists who know how to breathe new life into true notes, those that will never die.
Enjoy listening!

Fun with a late blooming omega
Format: Kindle
I like this book. The story is fun, cute, and sexy. There's just a little drama, some excellent, steamy scenes, and a fairly good relationship building storyline. I especially like how all the main characters are a bit older than the usual 20 somethings I tend to see in this kind of book.
Having said that, I wish there were more descriptions of the places, as well as the food in the fancy restaurant. I enjoyed the cocktails at the club, so I missed that kind of detail when Gray took Madison on a dinner date. I also wish there had been more interaction between Lucas and Madison, and Lucas and Rian. It felt a bit lopsided, with a focus on Rian, Madison, and Gray.
I wish it had been proofread - there are a lot of typos, but nothing too distracting.

Madison Deserved Better
Format: Kindle
Madison was a beta...except she wasn't any longer. She was a late presenting Omega. And she was struggling. She was tall and thin, not tiny and curvy. She was opinionated. She was everything an Omega was not. After suffering through her first heat, her friends took her to Ardor, a club where Omegas came to safely find Alphas. She's not expecting much but then she connects with a sexy beta. And when she meets his Alphas, they set her body on fire. Maybe, she's found her no-strings-attached heat pack. Maybe, she's found something more.
I could not connect with the characters in this book, so their story never resonated with me. And there was no love story; there was sex. Grey made it clear from the beginning that he had a true love and it was his beta boy, Rian. He went so far as to reassure Rian “Say the word, I’ll never touch her again. Lucas can put the babies in her. I only need you, beta boy”. So, Madison was there for babies, no emotions needed. Nice. No, thank you. I want the Omega to be the center of their world, not an incubator. Lucas and Rian weren't any better. After her heat, they let her leave. Not one of them made her feel valued. No one gave her a reason to stay or even offered a cuddle. And the sex didn't even come across as mind-blowing. Madison deserved better.

Pretty Darn Good
Format: Kindle
So I’ve been on a omega kick and this definitely hit the spot. Madison was frustrating at times with how she acted towards Lucas, Gray, and Rian. It was like she said towards the end, she didn’t believe she deserved nice things.
It would have been nice to hear from her best friends again. They kind of were there in the beginning and the gone except for mention of text messages received from them. I feel like her friends would have been great help in encouraging Madison to go with the pack and never give Brent another chance because he was toxic.
I loved Rian. His personality was awesome. His humor. His ability to make Madison comfortable whenever she was feeling overwhelmed. And the fact he fell for her and she fell for him first. They are cute together.
I do feel like Lucas was the odd man out though. Like Lucas didn’t develop as much of a relationship with Madison. I would have really liked to see more development in the relationship between them. It was also the same with him and Rian. There is really no relationship displayed. Most of the relationship being displayed is between Rian and Gray.
Nevertheless, I loved reading about the dynamic that came to fruition during the entirety of this story. Madison finally got her happiness. And Brent finally got punched in the face. Everyone got exactly what they deserve.

Pack's Promise was okay but not great
Format: Kindle
Pack's Promise was okay but not great. I won't recommend it to anyone that I know.
PRO:
* Very likable characters
* Lots of steamy scenes that are written very well
* The spelling and grammar are good
* The punctuation is good with the exception of using hyphens instead of commas. Lots of hyphens. Lots and lots of hyphens.
CON:
* Almost no interactions with any characters outside of Madison and the pack
* Nearly no plot. They meet, get together for a heat, agree to make it permanent, done
* Quite a few typos such as extraneous words, missing words and words out of order
THINGS TO KNOW:
* More steamy scenes than storytelling
* A lot of MM & MMM, some MFMM during heat
