A Dark Mafia Romance

De: Rebecca Johnpee

Narrado por: Jaclyn Kelso, Marcio Catalano

"THE WICKED is a perfectly executed enemies-to-lovers that feels impossible to put down." —Autumn Woods, USA Today bestselling author of Nightshade

He is the king of mafia kings.

She's the risk. He’s the ruin. Together, they unleash the storm.

Elio
They call me “The Wicked.”

I’ve earned that name with blood, silence, and the weight of every secret I carry.

As head of the Marino Family, nothing slips past me. Not lies. Not weakness. Not fear.

But when she enters my world…everything tilts.

Zahra
I’m dangerous—and I’ve had to be.

I grew up with men who treated bullets like sugar cubes.

I’ve risen from the streets to create the most notorious gang of thieves in the country. But after a job goes wrong, my crew and I are held captive by The Wicked, and I’ll do just about anything to take advantage of it. Even if it means working with the most deadly man I've ever encountered, and pulling off the biggest heist I've ever dreamed of.

I’m dancing with the devil, and the cost might be my body–my very soul.

But I’m willing to pay the price if it means I get him…

The Wicked is slow burn mafia meets heist romance that explores darker themes, subjects, and scenes that may not be suitable for everyone. Please see the author's content note at the beginning of the book.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Praise for The Wicked:

"Each and every chapter is an emotional roller coaster. You're gonna be laughing one minute and crying the very next. The very next chapter will send your blood boiling." --Ssan_V

"I'm still nursing the cliffhanger hangover." --furmomof5andup

"I'll never be the same again." --emilyf98

I was hooked

Wish it was duet format. This had me hooked so bad and the cliffhanger ugh June needs to hurry up! The plot was good and I have so many questions. I loved Elio and his short and blunt dialogue. Sometimes I would question some of his decisions because it didn’t feel like a mafia king but a lot man in his trauma but I’d take him any day and help him lol. And Zahra ugh she annoyed me at times with some of er decision making. I found kind of odd the fact that they spoke Spanish instead of Italian when the story is held in Italy. Overall I really enjoyed it and looking forward to book 2.

So in love!

Omg i loved this book the story the plot the characters i loved everything about it! I NEED A SECOND BOOK IMMEDIATELY

❤️ love it

I love this.. waiting for the next book...hope it's sooner than later . hopefully

mafia mystery romance with plot twists galore

3.75 stars rounded up, mafia romance with plot twists galore! This starts out kind of slow but by 60%ish I was hooked...and confused! I didn't know who I should be rallying behind, Zahra or Elio. I enjoyed the banter and tension between the two, and the found family that Zahra has. Check your triggers for this one, lots of past trauma between the MMC and FMC.

Why did I wait so long

This is my new obsession. This world , the writing, the narration was perfect. I can not wait for the next one to drop.
