Man of Honor

The Fausti Family, Book 1

De: Bella Di Corte

Narrado por: Antonio Amato, Verla Bond

If you knew love could kill you, would you still fall?

The moment Brando Piero Fausti appeared in the snow-filled night, he made the blood hum in my veins. With a body worthy of a statue in Italy, he tethered my life to his with an irrevocable bond. He was the most dangerous man I had ever felt. A savage beast lurked just beneath his surface, ready to battle for what he loved the most—me.

Little did I know that he would lure me into a gilded cage with his beautiful words and searing touch. Little did he know, I’d always fight to follow the true alignment of my stars.

Man of Honor is the beginning of an eight-part Royal Organized Crime Romance saga.

Previously released as The Beautiful Years I.

the story is just boring.

this is a love story and very slow burn which I hate specially when theirs no action in the plot. I still have 3 more hrs to finish but honestly I am considering not finishing this book. Scarlett is prude and weird for someone 18 years old. yes she's she's sheltered but she's been around people who aren't and has friend who isn't sheltered and yet scarlet is a prude or just very slow at getting what she wants when it comes to this one guy who she obviously likes or loves. the foreplay is just insufferable to hear her pov sometimes. I will try and continue and will be back. wish me luck!! 😑🤣

update: it's chapter 26 and 1 hr left , this is dull and BORING, spoiler alert: ⚠️

finally she loses her virginity but this story is boring. I hope this girl grows a backbone is not that she's weak but she isn't fully strong willed yet. now the story between mitch violet and mick is interesting. 🤣 and I'm not even into cheating . Overall it's an ok love story fitting for the time which this is in the 90s but I feel like the only level headed one or mature (wise) is violet not scarlet who is so inexperienced in life. she is lucky to have a man like bradon but this isn't my type of my love story. I rather more excitement and spice.

Very sweet slow burn mafia romance

This book was a wonderful surprise that just managed to wet my appetite for more of Brando and Scarlett’s star-crossed lovers story. Bella di Corte’s writing is elegant, very touching and the characters are both very endearing. Brando is sexy, dangerous, mysterious and wholly dedicated to Scarlett who is so sweet, talented and sad. They have a Romeo and Juliet air about them and yet I know from the Fausti background story that mafia danger is just around the corner in the next books in the series. This love story is not rushed, I like that Bella took her time setting the stage for whats to come by dedicating this entire book to Scarlett and Brando’s relationship. The narration was superb. No one does a more authentic Italian character and voice like Antonio Amato. Verla Bond was new to me but she captured my heart immediately. When she sounded happy I was happy and when she made Scarlett sound sad I wanted to cry. Wonderful and exciting and im just cant wait for the next book. Bravo 👏🏻

Mafia romance

A little ballerina dancer can have so much power over one man? Hm. I wasn't to surea bout this audiobook and I'm glad I took a chance on it. I sort had to be in the mood to listen to this, it's ok. I think I'm running into a block wall and I sort of downt want to listen to romance books for a while. LOL omg why am I admitting this now and why am I writting this. I found the story so so and the voice actors all right. so...I think I need to re-listen to this when I am in a better head space no?

intense love

Brando was so entranced with the ballerina he decided to stay and talk with her instead of going to a party with his best friend. that evening, Scarlett saved his life, but lost her brother
They bonded by grief, The story revolves around Scarlett and Brando's love for each other.. They vowed always to each other. He was her everything, .
Their bond is forever, consuming their lives. but he had to let her go.
This is romantic, brutally honest, emotional.
Very well written, exploring Scarlett and Brandos thoughts throughout this story,
 Antonio Amato  and Verla Bond narration is very good, giving all the emotions , voices, intensity and personalities of the characters in this story. i was gifted this audio and offered my honest review

What a Roller Coaster

This book was good but woo it had my head spinning. I do love all types of books so of coarse I got hooked. Watching the pain of Brando and Scarlett and the love that seems to always be in the way of something life throws at them. The tragedy that sits in their life’s with Scarlett brother is also a weight they both bare. If you love Mafia books, books with a twist, romance that comes and goes you will love this story. I can’t wait for book 2 to come out so I can see what Brando does and how long he has on this deal he made to bust loose. The author is new to me but love the writing so far💕. Antonio and Verla both keep you hooked as emotions run wild in this book. You can really feel the pain and love everyone has on this book.
