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.

SOOOO Good! 🖤

Corvin King with an Irish accent? Yes, please!

I jumped into this one blind after I kept seeing the reviews on socials… I love a good mafia romance and this one did not disappoint! So many twists and turns, plus all the best tropes. Told in duet style by Lucy Rivers and Corvin King, the narrators were phenomenal and kept me glued to my earbuds. Their performance was incredible. This book was dark, fast-paced, and addictive. The story makes you fall in love with falling in love.

Read the TW’s.

Absolutely must read

This was an absolute 6-star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ read for me. I absolutely adored this story. I can’t wait for the next book in this captivating world. It’s scheduled to be released in November 2025. This book was a rollercoaster of emotions, leaving me gasping, tearing up, and laughing throughout. It’s a mafia romance, an arranged marriage, a story about disability, an age gap, trauma, banter, and a dark mafia romance. Once you start reading this book, you’ll find it impossible to put it down. It will consume you.

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
