Publisher's summary

Jacob

My father is dying, and I’ve been called back to Brooklyn to take my place as the head of the Italian syndicate. After a seven-year absence, my first test of loyalty is to marry the granddaughter of the Irish mob’s leader. I may not want a wife, but I’ll kill anyone who tries to harm her.

I only hope she doesn’t expect love in our marriage. I can’t—won’t—love her. Not ever. I don’t have it in me.

Brenna

My life has always been about duty. When my grandfather signs a marriage contract, I become a pawn in an alliance between the Irish and the Italians. Once again, I’m bound by duty.

I’ve always been invisible—the person who fades into the background—except soon my new husband begins to see me.

He’s a Brooklyn king, but will our enemies destroy my chance to become his queen?

story

would've liked an epilogue regarding the future of Brenna & Jacob, and if they had any kids?

mafia romance

I enjoyed lIstening to this mafia romance story. the relationship between Brenna and Jacob developed throughout this story. Brenna was shy, quiet, shielded ,granddaughter of the Irish mob. she had a fire underneath, that made her become, the strong woman she needed to be.
Jacob, strong, dominant was hiding a secret that haunted him. He accepted the arranged marriage, as his duty to his family.
Eva Caine and Walker Williams narration is very good.

Family, betrayal, revenge, love

This was an amazing job with narrators. I loved listening to it. It had suspense, family ties, revenge, love, angst. Held my attention from beginning to end.

So good

Oh this book is so good! I want more and can’t wait for the next book: Eva and Walker did an excellent job at narrating

Captivating!

This is the first book in the Brooklyn Kings Series. Jacob and Brenna's story is well written, and captivating. Jacob, son of the head of the Italian syndicate, is enigmatic, ruthless, and protective. Brenna, granddaughter of the Irish mob’s leader, is beautiful, strong, smart, and brave. They are both interesting characters. The storyline is intricate, and enthralling. I liked the twists and turns in the story. This is an excellent Arranged Marriage Mafia Romance. I enjoyed it. Eva Caine and Walker Williams did an excellent job with the narration. Looking forward to listening to The Enemy in My Bed, the next book in the series. If you like Mafia Romance, this series is for you. #TheFlock

Excellent Audiobook

I absolutely love the books LK Shaw writes! She writes well with great storylines and excellent characters. I was so happy to be traveling so I didn't have many interruptions when listening to this! I started this series in the middle. I loved it so much that I began reading the books I missed. Listening to it just brought more to the story. My heart squeezed throughout this book. Jacob and Brenna are favorite characters. I'm so invested in the characters. They are like family.

Eva Caine and Walker Williams are EXCELLENT narrators. I totally zoned out and was able to live in the story. Their performances were perfection. Love their voices.

The Devil I Don’t Know

This is the first book in the Brooklyn Kings series. I think all books will be stand-alone books. This is a Mafia romance. Jacob is the estranged son of the Italian Mafia. He is called to come take is spot as the head due to his father’s health. Brenna is the granddaughter of the Irish Mafia. They are to have an arranged marriage. I really enjoyed this book. Eva Caine and Walker Williams did a phenomenal job narrating this book.

Crazy Awesome Good

The story was way better than I anticipated. The narrators were so good. Emilio (aka Jacob) and Brenna meet on the day they get married as part of a union to bring the Irish and Italian mafia families together for added manpower against the Russians. And Jacob is the new King of the family as his father only has a few months to live. Don’t miss the chance to see how Brenna is stronger than expected and the ways she surprises people. And how the two of them take on the world.

LOVE THIS!

OM Gosh did I enjoy this!! This has three of my favorite things! Romantic Suspense, Arranged mafia marriage and Walker Williams narrating! This story is one for the books! It easily drew me in, then kept me intruiged and later I was surprised and shocked (there were many Oh my gosh moments!).

This is one that WILL be going on my favorites list! The character building is wonderful and there is a lead in to the next book in the series!! I did listen to this on audio. Walker Williams and Eva Caine do a great job as narrators. Walker W. holds a special place in my heart as I love listening to his voice.
