Her Protection

De: Roxy Sinclaire

Narrado por: Piper Fairweather, Wade Vessey

Jane is a US Army Vet turned investigative reporter - five years ago, she broke the story on a drug ring that sent a dozen men to prison, including boss Tommy Tilucci. Tommy recently got out of prison with the help of a crooked judge, and wants to pay Jane back for the damage she did to his organization. She did this in part by starting a dangerous relationship with Max Malone, one of Tommy's enforcers. Max was among those that went to prison, and he's also never forgiven Jane for betraying him.

Jane, though, has become famous for her investigative reporting, and although she was offered a job as an anchor for ANVC, she turned it down because what Jane loves is to be in thick of it; a desk would kill her spirit. In part this is because during her tour in Afghanistan her unit was pinned down and in order to save the two surviving members she nearly sacrificed herself and barely survived - in the process, however, she killed three Afghan civilians, and has never gotten over the guilt.

Five years later, Jane is investigating another potential notch in her reporter's belt - infamous bad boy Bryce Baron, widely believed to be a former hit man for Tommy Tilucci, and if Jane can prove it then not only will Tilucci end up back in prison, but Jane's career will be cemented as a household name in investigative journalism.

Bryce Baron, though, is both more and less than Jane expects. He was never really a hitman for Tilucci, though he was an enforcer for him after Bryce won a fight that he was supposed to throw and was forced to work for Tilucci to pay off his debt. It was that, or Tilucci threatened to take Bryce's most precious thing - his daughter, then a four year old girl, who didn't and still doesn't know that Bryce Baron is her father.

Justice!

Mafia romances have been a favorite of mine, and this book was so good. I loved the narration on this book! Both narrators were perfect for the parts and they added so much to the story with their distinguished voices for various characters. I read this book before I listened to it and found both to be excellent, but I think the audiobook might even be better. I received this book as a gift and have voluntarily written this review. This book is a standalone listen and part of a series. I thought the storyline was original and fast paced. The suspense was terrific, and I loved the entire book.

Mafia romance and drama at its best

I loved this listen! I don't always enjoy mafia romances as a genre but when they are well done, there's nothing better. This listen was well-done.

The two main characters are raw and emotional and intense with baggage aplenty. You knew they had to find each other. You knew there would be an HEA. You knew the bad guy would get his. The joy and the intensity and the drama in this listen was in the getting there. The author, Roxy Sinclair, made us wait. She kept the drama taut and complex and the romance high.

The narration sold it! The duo narrators were the perfect choice. This is my second Fairweather/Vessey listen and the partnership delivered again.

This looks like the second book in a series (nothing missing in the listen though) and I'm looking forward to the next installment.

Bad Boy or Good Man

Jane is an ambitious investigative reporter who had done a story on the head of the Tilucci Mafia family. He was sent to prison but unfortunately due to corrupt judges and law enforcement he is now free.

Jane decides that she is going to dig deeper and make sure he goes back to prison for good. To do this she seeks information from Bryce who she believes is a hit man for the family. Bryce was forced to work for Tilucci after Tilucci had his wife killed and threatened his daughter. His daughter is now living with her aunt and uncle and Bryce has had no contact with her in order to keep her safe.

The chemistry between Jane and Bryce is instant and hot and they work together to bring down Tilucci. The story is very fast paced and full of action, none of which I can tell you about without spoiling the story for you.

I really recommend this story if you like action, hot chemistry and a good love story you will enjoy this book.

Creative romantic suspense

Investigative reporting can be so dangerous! Jane is an investigative reporter who finds out someone she put in jail 5 years ago is being released. She tracks down one of the witnesses and hopes to be able to get this criminal put back in jail. Bryce is a mechanic by day, MMA fighter by night and can help Jane blow this case wide open. These two embark on a trip of rick, uncertainty, fear and deadly harm. Roxy Sinclaire has released another romantic suspense taking us on the inner circle of a mafia ring. It gives all the feels of fear, determination and budding love.

Roxy Sinclaire picked a good narration team for this series. Piper Fairweather gives her characters strength and vulnerability and she also voices Bryce's young daughter with perfection. Wade Vessey gives the men the gruffness and steel necessary for the rough characters and the warmth for Bryce with his many ongoing emotions.

Jane is FEARLESS

I was provided this audiobook through Audiobook Boom at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review.

Not the best Mafia romance but very good. There’s a twist in that the female is really the strongest character. Bryce is hot, honest, caring, and devoted but without Jane’s strength, he would not have been a part of the final take-down.

I like that Jane and Bryce have a slow romantic build and the story itself is full of action and suspense. Has an HEA, always a good thing ;)

Great narration, even the child’s voice.

Two thumbs Up.
