Resumen del Editor

Keir

The governor’s daughter has gotten herself into a mess.
If I protect her, her father will owe me, bigtime.
But the best way to keep her safe is to marry her.
Claim her as one of our own.

The catch? She’s got a boyfriend she’s not ready to part with.
Good thing an unwilling bride isn’t an issue for a guy like me.

Rowan

How is it that years of toeing the line could unravel so damn quickly?

I’ve done my best to make my parents happy in every way.
But when a six-foot tatted Irish gangster showed up at our house, my entire life began to crumble.

Now, I’ve woken with a ring tattooed on my finger, and I’m starting to worry there’s no going back.

*Corrupted Union is the second book in The Byrne Brothers series. Each book in the series features a different couple and can be listened to as a standalone with a happily ever after, but for maximum enjoyment, follow the recommended listening order. A dark romance with adult themes, Corrupted Union may not be suitable for sensitive audiences. For a more detailed content warning, you can visit the books tab on my website.

A Note from the Author: Keir is my Tommy Shelby, and I am so utterly in love with him. A savage ruthlessness hides beneath his calm exterior, which is shattered when Rowan comes crashing into his world. They may not see it at first, but these two are perfect for one another!

For those of you who are new to me, I write what I'd call "mafia lite." My heroes are hardened criminals with soft spots for their heroines. There may be violence and cruelty in my books, but never between the main characters. Enjoy!

Love this book

Absolutely loved this book and this series is amazing. The author has us tangled in the web for each characters story and this one has me on the edge the whole time!

author

The author is so poetic.
loved the fact it wasn't drawn out long monologs of inner thoughts . if I thought the first book was good this was freaking phenomenal

Great story!

I enjoyed listening to this audiobook. The characters were great . I loved keir he was perfect even thought he had a hidden agenda. Rowan who suffered her tragedy in silence wrung my heart and to be with such a supposed upstanding guy. How these two met and how keir got what he needed , without knowing how he would want it even more. Watching these two fall I love was beautiful. I love how they discovered treachery in the ranks of the Irish family and also seeing the disposable deeds of certain people. The narration was Beautifully done and brought more excitement to the words that were written .

Irish Devine

Fairy tales was not in my future, but suddenly it was there. I was swept of my feet and all my fighting against it, couldn’t stop the train to collide with me.

Loved it!

This is my favorite so far in the Byrne Brothers series! Kier and Rowan are fantastic characters. I loved this story. Gregory and Lidia bring this story life.

Even better than the first book

🌶🌶🌶 3.5/5 (light bondage scene, otherwise steriotypical scenes that arent every other chapter). Nothing terribly dark or twisted here.

I liked this story better than the first book. This girl had a good sense of survival by texting someone before she waddled into danger. I like seeing at least some brains. Their first encounter is so disturbingly adorable. There is an occasional playfulness in the stories that I wish was incorporated even more but I do like the bits given to us. With some tweaks I could see a story like this being a movie, I was able to picture the interactions so well.

My biggest issue is that the irish accents were sparse and not the best. Narrator was otherwise good.

Loved it

I love a story where both characters are portrayed with strength instead of a dominant, toxic Alpha and a weak heroine. (Sometimes those are fun, but I love a strong heroine.) Rowan and Keir were perfectly matched to each other and each also had their interesting quirks and backstories which I won’t spoil here. Though Keir is in a position of power as a Byrne, I loved that he rarely used it too high handedly… well except that one time LOL. I loved how Rowan, though young and impulsive, was smart and as her backstory unfolded, you really understood her motivations for the things she does in the story. I thought the way her inner monologue was written was really clever and, in its own way, a bit heartbreaking.

Rowan, the governor’s perfect daughter, uncovers some truths about a family friend and paints a target on her back with dangerous people turning her way. Keir has been trying to get the governor to see eye to eye with the Byrne family on a matter when he meets the governor’s daughter. She intrigues him and their chemistry is tantalizingly hot. To garner favor with her father, Keir agrees to marry Rowan, offering her protection by claiming her as a Byrne. Unfortunately she has a boyfriend, but that won’t stop Keir. So Rowan wakes up with a tattooed ring finger, a marriage license, and no memories of the past 48 hours.

I listened to this story and have to say that Gregory Salinas and Lidia Dornet did an amazing job of portraying Keir and Rowan. Gregory toes the line of gruff alpha with a bit of a sweet middle and Lidia nailed Rowan’s challenging inner monologue. Overall, this story has a lot of twists and turns with a slightly dangerous edge. It’s spicy and Rowan’s backstory will pull at your heart. This series is one I enjoy every time I pick up the next story and I can’t wait to read what’s next.

Loving this series!

The books in this series are amazing! Really well written and performed. The storyline and all the back sorties are fantastic, the writing and dialogue are too.

Just listen to all these books - you won’t regret it!

Mafia Romance-Amazing

Rowan and Keir is a mafia romance that is soooooooo good. I love this story. There are some uncomfortable parts, secrets, and true love plus lust. I hated needing to sleep. I wanted to listen to this story non stop. The narrators are very good and kept me immersed and wondering what happened next. Jill Ramsower-you are a wonderful author and this was as good as Silent Vows. Thank you for creating men who aren’t afraid to show their vulnerable side and how much they love their women and their family. Can’t wait to see what’s next in the Byrn family drama.

Love the narrators

Good story a little predictable, but good. Loved Kerr a lot better than Connor. I recommend audiobook.
