Mafia Wife 
By Lynda Milito with Reg Potterton

   Mafia Wife is the story of a young girl desperate for love and looking for it in all the wrong places. Lynda Lustig spent her entire childhood trying to win the affection of her mother. However, Sally Lustig seemed to hate her daughter. My personal opinion is that Sally was jealous of her daughter, for Lynda was indeed a beautiful girl, and her father adored her. Sally wanted no other woman around that would share of the affection of Lynda’s father, Louie Lustig.

     This drove Lynda to look for any way to get away from home. She had no friends in school, so she began to spend her time at the candy shop across the street from Lafayette High School in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, New York. That was where she first became acquainted with the lifestyle of those who preyed on other people to get what they wanted. She also began to go to nightclubs, and it was there she met Louie Milito.

     Louie was not yet a "made man" with the Gambino family, but he was already supplementing the income from his job as a hairdresser with the proceeds from various thefts. Mafia Wife details how Lynda and Louie married and how she dealt with his life of crime. It is a story filled with warnings, both for the young women like Lynda who fell in love with these men and the young men who think they want the life of a "made man" in organized crime. She also details why she married Louie knowing he was a criminal. It is an eye-opening tale letting everyone know why this is not a life but an existence. Read Mafia Wife. It will open your eyes to the existence of a totally useless sector of society that few know much about.
