Resumen del Editor

What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object in the field of death?

In the dark underbelly of the mob, Tristan Caine has been an anomaly. As the only non-blooded member in the high circle of the Tenebrae Outfit, he is an enigma to all. His skills are unparalleled, his morality is questionable, and his motives are unknown. He is lethal and he knows it.

As does Morana Vitalio, the genius extraordinaire daughter of the rival family. What Caine does with weapons, Morana does with computers. When a twenty-year-old mystery resurfaces, Morana infiltrates Caine's house, intent on killing him, unaware of a tie that binds them together. Hate, heat, and history clash together with unexpected sparks.

But something bigger, something worse is happening in their world. And despite their animosity, only they can fight it down.

LOVE

I love these books.. I was so excited to see the audible book available.. I’ve read them all an I kniw I just needed to listen to this story bc I loved it so much. Get story and marvelous job on the performance ❤️

Predator

Loved the narrator. But where is the rest of the book. I love this series.

Stick With It

I didn’t love the beginning but I am so glad I kept reading. The entire book is a slow burn and I LOVED it.

🖤🖤🖤

super smart FMC in a mafia setting
-dark hair blue eyed MMC with BDE and a voice of whiskey and sin 🌶🌶🌶

Slow burn. Witty Banter.

****Narration**** Not a huge fan of their voices, maybe it will take a few chapter to get used to listening to their voices. Also not a fan of the narrators talking about their character in third person. I wish that they would talk in first person.

update: Took me until Chapter 6 to get used to the third person narration and the narrators voices.

****Story**** (update from chapter 6) The story is enjoyable, it has a great story plot and the tension is soooo nice haha I love the banter that they have between each other. she knows how to push his buttons and he just knows how to get her interest.

One negative review that I read a lot was that "they just kept staring at each other", not sure if its because I am terrible at eye contact but I loved the ominous stare. The title made so much sense with just these act alone, I could see the predator side of him and I loved it.

The author repeats a lot of phrases and it kills the vibe of the story. example "she has changed", "she is unable to describe it, so she wont", etc. if you can't explain it... don't and don't write it in the story because its pointless.

Amazing performance

Loved everything and was enamoured with the way the story took a different vibe by being told in this audio

Start of one of my favorite series

"𝙉𝙤 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙚𝙡𝙨𝙚 𝙜𝙚𝙩𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙠𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙮𝙤𝙪, 𝙈𝙨. 𝙑𝙞𝙩𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙤," 𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙥𝙤𝙠𝙚 𝙦𝙪𝙞𝙚𝙩𝙡𝙮. "𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙡𝙖𝙨𝙩 𝙛𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙨𝙚𝙚 𝙗𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙞𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙗𝙚 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚. 𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙞𝙩 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙙𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙝, 𝙮𝙤𝙪'𝙧𝙚 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚."

Oh, it’s so good to be back! This is my first time re-reading this series, one of my favorites, and I’m loving it even more the second go around.

Morana has had her computer codes stolen, and she’s pretty sure the culprit is Tristan Caine, known in mafia circles as The Predator for his lethal skills. Morana intends to kill him, but what she doesn’t know is that Tristan has been intending to kill HER for a VERY long time…

The tension in this one is so thick. And what’s so amazing is that Tristan can cause so much lusty tension with just a LOOK…and we, the reader, can’t even see him! (👏 RuNyx)

Morana and Tristan’s story is so complicated and emotionally charged, you can’t help but root for them through all the messy feelings.

“𝙄 𝙨𝙚𝙚 𝙝𝙤𝙬 𝙝𝙚 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙠𝙨 𝙖𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪. 𝘿𝙚𝙨𝙥𝙞𝙩𝙚 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙢𝙮 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚, 𝙄 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙝𝙚’𝙙 𝙗𝙚 𝙖𝙨 𝙝𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙮𝙤𝙪.”
“𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙞𝙨 𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙢𝙚?” 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙙𝙨 𝙚𝙨𝙘𝙖𝙥𝙚𝙙 𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙨𝙤𝙛𝙩𝙡𝙮 𝙗𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙨𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙢.

“𝘼𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙚.”

(I do have to say, on a re-read, I loved the little glimpses of my absolute favorites, Dante & Amara. Just enough to whet my appetite while I await the rehash of their story. 🖤🖤)

Loved it!

Wish it were told differently as with more of Tristan chapter but still great! The intensity and mystery were awesome !! But the reveal was even better!! Loved the brother!

Ms. Vitalio

Ms. Vatalio is something else when she broke into Tristan house and pulled out the knives one at his neck and side asking for the drive. And told him that she will carve his heart out. They love is out of this world. And then when he said her “you’re death is mine “ took my breathe away.

Entertaining

It is well written with great detail. You get to really know the characters but still trying to piece them together. Not slow at all the dark romance isn’t too dark that you don’t like him or question her mental state.
