Corbin + Irish Accent=perfection

I looooove Corbin & I love Irish Mafia. This listen was like my dream come true. Bravo!! Unique, clever & just an overall excellent listen!

Phenomenal job portraying these characters

5⭐️ 3🌶️
This book was by far my favorite read of 2025. Leigh has really outdone herself with this one. 5 stars doesn’t even begin to describe how phenomenal this book was. I went from listening to it on audible to reading it. Corvin King with an Irish accent chefs kiss. There wasn’t anyone more perfect to portray Tiernan and all his deliciously unhinged ways. And I was here for every minute of it. Lucy Rivers did such a good job as well. Also the side characters had me kicking my feet giggling. My heart broke for these characters and what they endured. The possessiveness on Tiernan top freaking tier. And Lila was such a bada$$ FMC she gave it as she good as she got. She truly was his equal. And I loved it. I couldn’t get enough of this book!! And I can’t wait for Achilles book!! That plot twist at the end had my mind blown 🤯 I did not see that coming. This book is definitely a must read. And I can’t wait for the rest of this series.

yes!

i wish i could read this again for the first time. haven't loved an LJ Shen this much since Angry God. and I love all her books. and Corvin...dreamy

My Fav Mafia Romance So Far!

This was so unexpectedly good! The storyline is great and the plot was richly layered. The spice was really well-done and fit nicely into the story- instead of the plot solely existing as a catalyst for the spice… Tiernan and Lila are my new favorite Mafia couple! Some good plot twists too. I must admit, I didn’t figure out who attacked Lila, which is saying something cause I usually figure it out early on. I was surprised and really appreciated that the author gave us a unique FMC with teeth! The narrators did a great job and Corvin King’s Irish accent was spot on. I loved their banter! I giggled and kicked my feet to this audio. Tiernan is hilarious and very, very sexy ❤️‍🔥 I’m definitely excited to read book two- hopefully Tiernay’s story. I also felt very resolved by the epilogue… whew, I was worried at the ending for a moment. HOWEVER… do check the trigger warnings first. The SA that happens is really heartbreaking and later is spoken about by the perpetrator very graphically and callously. There’s a lot of heart in this story and the disability element is handled well and integrated as key in the character’s representation. Loved this so much I went out and bought the limited edition book version while I was still listening to the audio! 10 out of 10 would recommend 👍🏾👍🏾

My new favorite

Ahhhh this was amazing!! Move over Tate…..Tiernan has entered the chat 👏🏻 I didn’t think anyone could be more unhinged but here we are! 😍🖤
