Publisher's summary

"You'll know them. They have the letter 'M' branded on them like cattle."—Henry Melvin

Since Yakima's been able to date, her detective father has reminded her of the type of men to steer clear of. At twenty-seven, she's done just that until one night of partying and a botched raid lead her into the house of mob boss Francisco Matisse.

Calm, cool, and collected are frequent words used to describe Francisco "Frisco" Matisse. His main focus is business, and everything else, including his relationship with his longtime girlfriend, Alyce Smalls, comes afterward. In a hostile takeover gone wrong, Frisco schemes his way into Yakima's life, proving to his adversaries that his reach is far. Despite her skepticism, Yakima gives Frisco a chance.

As their relationship intensifies, he realizes he's in too deep to pull himself out. In a twisted turn of events, his scheme backfires, putting everyone involved at deadly risk. What was meant to be strictly business turns into something deeper, faster than he expected. With Alyce in his ear, Yakima in his heart, and people trying to threaten his empire, his back is against the wall.

When Frisco's secrets are threatened to be unveiled before he can reveal them himself, he must decide where his love and loyalty lie. Will it be with the woman who's been in his life or the woman who has his heart?

Wowwwwww

So goodt let's go part 2. I enjoyed the characters and the love triangle was crazy.

Great Story

I wish the females voices were switched because I was struggling through the main one. However the story was great.

Can we redo this and switch the main female character voices?!?

Okay so I loved listening to this book but I struggled so hard with the main females voice. I feel like she made Francisco’s voice sound childish for a man of 36 he sounded more like a man of 25-26. Then the voice for Francisco was amazing as usual but when it switched to the woman portraying him it was like two different characters. Ahh!! 😌 I wanted to love this book all the way around because it’s great!! Storyline and plot twist and all. I just hope the author uses someone else for the male voices.

I Loved it

Everything I was looking for in a book. The book was funny and held my attention. Can’t wait for the next one.

Great book

Great read. VAs were great. I think someone said one of the females VA were to animated but I think everyone did great. Some of the story was heartbreaking. Especially Alice hearing them in the closet. My heart broke for her. However it was a messy steamy story which is what I love to read.

Great Story

I absolutely loved this book. I read the book then once the audio was released I listened to it. Look there is NO WAY I would have put up with Frisco’s mess! Ain’t no way! But I love a good messy book and this one did not disappoint!

Loved It 😍

I love the story. It was a well written romance, comedy of sorts/kinda. All I know is, I was laughing almost through the whole story. 

Great Author

So this book was well written but for some reason, I couldn't bring myself to like the relationship formed by the 2 main characters. The man made 1000% excuses for why he dogged his ex so I couldn't root for them. Good book besides that.

Romantic drama

I love that this book was not violent! I loved the ups and downs in the relationship while discovering she has an additional parent. She spoke her mind, was spontaneous, and funny. I hope Bianca puts all of her books on audible…please.

Couldn't put this down!

This was a good read a really well written book with a lot of twists,turms, deceit. My only complaint was Katherine Dollison as a reader. her voice is TOO strong and she reads in a rough and aggressive tone that didn't mix well.
