Ruthless Saint: An Arranged Marriage Romance

DeSantis Mafia, Book 1

De: S. Massery

Narrado por: Stephanie Rose, Jacob Morgan

He wasn’t the one I was supposed to marry.

He’s cold.

Brutal.

Calculating.

To his family, I’m a strategic move in their war. To mine, an alliance offers protection against our enemies.

Still, there’s something about him that calls to me. A dark edge threatens to revive me. His gaze steals my breath. Even if my heart thinks this could work, my brain knows better.

We say “I do” with his brother’s blood on our clothes and the bars of my gilded cage slam closed. Our wedding vows are forever - ’til death do us part. But with enemies closing in from all sides, death might be closer than we think.

Please note: This book contains dark content that some listeners may find distressing.

Meh...skip it

No emotional connection b/t characters. Meet, sex, no real connection, separation, he treats her like shit, and then they just reconnect and she’s his one true love? No mafia stuff, just in background. And a big plot point is just wrapped up in a couple of paragraphs. Didn’t work for me.

great book

need to read it, it wasn't what I expected but a lot of things made sense near the end

Really enjoyed it

I was pretty impressed that it was better than I expected. I loved their story line. I did want a better epilogue about them not the brother.

Loved this arranged marriage

I’ve enjoyed S Massery’s audiobooks before so when I saw Jacob Morgan was narrating it really was a no brainer and he was such a great Luca! I loved getting to hear Stephanie Rose narrate another of her books too.

Let me tell you I love going into books blind and this book was so perfect for that. I was so ready for this book after reading Wild Fury and I enjoyed every second of it. Amelie and Luca were both not how I expected them to be. Luca had a side of him that was unexpected while Amelie was basically thrown to the wolves by way of an arranged marriage and expected to fit a mold. Amelie had a backbone that made it so she didn’t just comply after being married which I loved. I’m a sucker for a book with a heroine who has a backbone and knows when to show it. I really enjoyed this book but with Luca had to grovel just a little more but it still even with that was a great book.

Wow!

This book was good! There was always some type of action taking place. I loved Luca from the start except for one part of the book that left me disappointed in him. I knew it was bound to happen at some point but at the time he thought he was protecting Amelie. It was so heartbreaking from Amelie's POV and later when Luca saw for himself what his actions had done. There's so much to this story. These two characters really went through some tough times and I was constantly thinking about how they were going to get out of it. It was definitely action packed and there was hot, hot, hot sexy times. The narrators are amazing! When Stephanie Rose reads her inner thoughts she sounds like William Shatner but has a beautiful voice when speaking to others. Jacob Morgan!!! Awe.... I could listen to him ALL DAY LONG! His voice is so sexy. I'm glad the audio was released early. I was so excited and now I cant wait until Aiden & Jemma's story. I'm anxious to see how this wonderful author will make their story work for a HEA. Definitely recommend this book.

Exciting!

Ruthless Saint was an action-packed, fast moving, arrange marriage gone wrong...excellent book! I loved it from beginning to end. This is my first read from this author and I will be checking out her other work! I was completely engrossed in this book. Great read!

Meh spice, no plot

This book is all over the place. If you like mafia romance pick something else

Wow!

This was different & in a great way. Loved how this story flowed. This was my first story I’ve listened to from this Author. Loved this couples story & how complicated their love story was. How we are introduced to the characters that will obviously be in the next book. I’m intrigued.
So of course I basically got this because of Jacob Morgan. Which of course he rocked it, I love his voice. Stephanie Rose has a great voice & I enjoyed her reading as well.

Ruthless Saint

I listened to this a few months back so I don't remember a ton of specifics. What I do remember, though, was that I thought the heroine was very frustrating. She was always doing childish things, which a friend of mine blamed on her being sheltered, but I wish she would have grown up.

Great story!

I could listen to the male narrator all day, but the female narrator sounded like sh was trying to seduce with every word she spoke. She could've toned that down some in my opinion.
