De: C. Hallman, Isabella Starling

Narrado por: Heather Firth, Jack Calihan

Welcome to Hell, little one.

Alaric

Monroe was in the wrong place at the wrong time. I should’ve killed her when I had the chance. But instead, to make her keep my secrets, I took her freedom and made her my captive. She swore she’d hate me forever, but that was before I stole her innocence, too. Now she knows how good my forbidden touch feels, and it won’t take long before she transforms into the broken toy I’ve always wanted. And after that, there will be no going back…

Monroe

The first time I met Alaric, he fired a bullet into an innocent man’s head. He’s a hitman. The worst scum on the planet. He kills for a living and wrecks lives for fun. Now he’s my jailor, the only one who holds the key to my gilded cage. He says he’ll never let me go. He says he’ll force me to keep his secrets. He says I’ll kneel for him. But even he knows I’ll never, ever love a monster. And Alaric’s the devil himself.

This is a full-length, standalone dark mafia romance set in the Black Hearts world.

3 STARS

The heroine works at Purgatory and uses the money to help take care of her grandmother. Alaric sees her there and becomes OBSESSED with her. He breaks into her house does some questionable things while she is asleep and stalks her. He is the type of villain I love but everything was too insta for me. I wish it would have been a duet so we could see more of his crazy. He is definitely a bulldozer and forces her into a relationship. So if that isn’t your jam this book isn’t for you.

Narration 4 STARS

Someone’s been watching too much raunchy porn😏

I liked the interaction between the characters. I thought it was sweet the way this ruthless man took care of her so tenderly. Of course that was after he brutalized her..so there’s that. The writing was ok but some of the lines read like bad porn. The narration was decent.

The story was rather superficial and the sexy times were mostly just porn scenes in novel form. And bad porn at that. On the fence about his kink..consensual…questionable 🤷🏽‍♀️

Lastly, he called her sugar. My grannie called me sugar so that was kinda creepy for me.

Pretty Steamy

I liked the narrators. The guys voice kinda reminded me of the guy in the candyman movie back in the 90s. He really got into character. I like that. Sometimes narrators are monotone. I like it when they really play the character.

Dark and freaky

I listen to a lot of dark romance but this one had me cringing. I love the narrators and probably why I bought the book. But it had some elements I don’t even listen to willingly. If nothing bothers you, you may really enjoy this title. I love the narrators in the next books but I’m afraid it’s just going to be my limit to have gotten through this one.

surprisingly good

I was not quite sure in the beginning but it turned out to be a good Mafia romance. his kink was different then most of these types of books so it set it apart. she wasn't very thankful about being rescued....with his drastic actions her reaction to him was rather confrontational thus setting up the plot from stalking to kinda kidnapping for you own good territory. she wasn't overly winey and adapted to her circumstances pretty well once she finally accepted he wasn't going to kill her. even being a hitman he was actually really good to her, most of the time to the best of his ability given the circumstances. the story had a few twists in the side characters to spice it up. narration was good.
