Publisher's summary

Nico De Kysa. Cold. Detached. Ruthless. And my new husband.

I didn't want to marry the despicable mafia don. But my father made a deal with the devil, and lucky me, I'm the currency.

If I leave… He'll destroy my father's fortune.

But if I stay… He'll obliterate my heart.

In this union, the lines between love and hate are blurred. So blurred.

He's a cold-blooded monster with ice in his veins and frost in his heart. But in bed, Nico De Kysa burns like wildfire. And in the heat of the night, I begin to forget why I hate the mobster.

I'm trapped in a world I despise. With a man too wicked to fall for. Yet, I can't leave.

Maybe if I knew what was coming, it would be easier to run.

The Devil's Den is book one in the De Kysa Mafia series. A scorching hot enemies-to-lovers romance with tension-filled banter and sizzling chemistry. Expect 'touch her and die' vibes, forced proximity, and all the delicious darkness of a mafia romance. No cliffhanger. For mature listeners.

Awesome!

Loved the storyline and the flow of the storyline. Also, I loved that the author made the female lead a strong character.

Easy but addicting read

The story keeps you engaged with many emotional twists and turns. It was easy to fall in love with Niko and Bella but will their love be enough to keep Bella a part of the mafia world? Will Bella be able to forgive Niko for their mistakes of the past? This is an easy read but will keep you listening to more.

A MUST BOOK!!!!

LOVE THIS BOOK!!! The narrators have brought to life my favorite book! The story give you everything and leaves you wanting nothing. I an amazing story of second chances and arranged marriage. Do yourself a favor and read this book!

Bella and Nico

Penny Dee is a new-to-me author and I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Bella was a strong woman and Nico was a tough b@stard. I love how Nico handled her father for what he did. Bella fought Nico for what felt like forever. I love how Nico softened for her, especially when he realized he loved her. His brother was great. The ending of this book was a good set up for the next one. Kelsey Navarro Foster and Jack Calihan brought the story to life. They did a great job with the narration. I hope the next book in the De Kysa Mafia series comes to Audible soon.

Not bad

The storyline wasn’t bad; kept me listening; just can’t get over the stupidity of one of the characters. Narrators did a good job with characters. The quickness of how things changed in the opposite direction was a bit much, thus the reason for 4 stars.

At 1st i wasnt a fan...

At 1st i wasnt a fan...but then once i got thru the 1st few chapters or so it started to get way better!

How much love they had for each other

OMG this my 1 time l read the book, this is my first time listening to it. I love the narrators they are the perfect fit for the characters. I hope they do the next book.

LOVE this story

Read the book version first and was obsessed with it. Love the audio just as much!

FANTASTIC!!!

What an awesome read. This one goes into my Favorite-Favorite file. Not many books make it to this level of “Favorites”.
This story is well written with twists and turns you never expect. Never a dull moment, you just hold on as it goes. It is true love as it expands through time, throwing you through shocks, heartache, love, fun times, and true love again.
Read it. You will be glad you did.

It was entertaining.

The narrative initially held promise, but unfortunately, it lost momentum. Bella and Nico's stubbornness hindered their ability to communicate effectively, leading them to continuously circulate around their issues. I wished for more mafia-related action. That being said, I did find the story entertaining.

The best part was the dual narration by Kelsey Navarro Foster and Jack Calihan.

Overall, if you are in the mood for a lite mafia romance, this book is a great option.
