Lovely Venom

An Irish Mafia Romance (Quinlan Empire, Book 3)

De: Deborah Garland

Narrado por: Maxine Mitchell, Aiden Snow

I’m not the lost girl he thinks I am. He’s not the monster they warned me about.

Drug enforcement isn’t just a job, it’s my passion.

Until another bust goes sideways, crashing everything around me.

Next, I’m sucked into a new world that leaves me with one choice to not only survive but to become a princess:

Murder Connor Quinlan.

He’s not just the Irish Mob’s most dangerous unhinged psycho, Connor is the one-night stand I can’t stop thinking about.

And I’m the one he’s been looking for.

Connor is rich, powerful, and a lethal heartbreaker, who is on a killing spree to eliminate his enemies.

One night in his bed was all it took to unlock the blackness in my soul and breathe new light into my own unhinged ways.

We were perfect and terrible for each other at the same time.

But he murdered my father, and he has to die.

Only, when he catches me, he gives me a choice:

Leave and his team will hunt me down. Or stay and spend the night in his bed.

The catch?

I get to try again.

But every failed attempt turns into another surrender.

To his rules. His hands. His hunger.

I don’t know if I hate him or if I can’t live without him.

When the truth comes to light, he refuses to let me go, even if falling for the woman who was sent to slaughter him will ruin his life in more ways than one.

Good Irish Mafia romance

This was an enjoyable listen. Maxine Mitchell did an amazing job as Raina and Aiden Snow was enjoyable as Connor.

This book was a bit of a departure from my normal type of book, I don't read too many mafia books.

They had one night together and they were both still thinking about the other, when she finds new family from a rival mafia and is sent to kill him. She obviously can't do it.
The chemistry between the two is amazing, the banter is great, and I couldn't wait to read more.

I loved the glimpses at Fallon and Reese and look forward to hearing more about them

Bravo!! One of the best listens of the year!!

Maxine Mitchell, does it again! She is outstanding! Aiden Snow is equally as amazing. Connor. I mean, what is not to love about Connor?! It’s well written. It’s creative. The duet is incredible. I cannot say enough good things about this! Slow clap.

Hot, Spicy, Perfection!

WOW. Just wow. This book completely consumed me from the very first chapter. Deborah Garland crafted a dangerously addictive Irish mafia romance that’s equal parts brutal, beautiful, and intoxicating. Connor Quinlan is the kind of unhinged antihero that makes your heart race and your morals blur, while the FMC is fierce, complex, and refuses to be anyone’s victim. Their chemistry? Off. The. Charts. 🔥

Aiden Snow and Maxine Mitchell, two of my absolute favorite narrators, brought this story to life with a duet performance that’s pure perfection. Aiden’s gravelly dominance matched Connor’s dangerous edge flawlessly, while Maxine captured every ounce of strength, chaos, and vulnerability in the heroine. Together, they made every scene pulse with tension and emotion.

If you love age gaps, enemies-to-lovers, knife play, found family, and that intoxicating push-and-pull between love and vengeance. Lovely Venom delivers it all and then some. Dark, delicious, and deeply addictive.

This isn’t just a listen, it’s an experience. 💀❤️

So good!

This series just keeps getting better. I laughed so hard throughout the entire audio. The narrators were perfection together. I appreciate the banter and how this author always writes strong, capable women and men that support the.. I cannot wait for Rhys and Fallon's story.

Obsessed with the Quilan Brothers

I’m completely in love with the Quinlan brothers, and with each story Deborah gives us, I fall even harder for this family.

Conor and Raina’s book absolutely blew me away. The plot is gripping, the twists are jaw-dropping, and the emotions hit so deep. Their chemistry? Pure fire. Raina is a storm, fierce, strong, and unafraid to show her dark side, while Conor is the man who loves her exactly as she is. He adores his warrior princess who rocks combat pants and lather jackets instead of heels and gowns, and honestly, it’s everything.

And the audiobook? Wow. @aidensnowvoice and @narratormaxine are perfect for these characters. Their voices capture every spark, every heartbeat, every ounce of passion between Conor and Raina. The emotion they bring makes the story even more unforgettable.

I’m already counting the days until Rhys and Fallon’s story, and praying Deborah gives us Val and Ruby’s too.

If you love intense romance, strong heroines, and emotionally charged storytelling, this series is a must-read (and must-listen). 💕
