The Favor Collector

The Russo Mafia, Book 2

By: B. Lybaek

Narrated by: Desireé Ketchum, Theodore Zephyr

I never should have stolen from the mafia. But the gorgeous, scarred stranger I had a one-night-stand with didn't come with a last name—he came with my name on his lips.

And like the irresponsible menace I am, I walked out with the one thing I shouldn't have touched.

The worst part is he comes for me. Matteo doesn't forgive or forget. He corners me. Gives me an ultimatum with consequences I can't escape. Then collects the favor I now owe him.

The favor? Pretend to be his girlfriend while he hunts the mole whose betrayal almost got him killed last year.

And it should be simple. But nothing about Matteo is.

Each touch turns into a claim, each kiss into something possessive. It doesn't take long before I can't tell where the performance ends and our obsession begins.

Matteo Russo isn't just a man—he's the very fire that's tried to kill him twice. And me… I'm the moth that can't resist the tattooed and scarred flame.

The Favor Collector is the second book in the Russo Mafia series, featuring the Russo family. Each book is a standalone with an HEA. This is a spicy dark mafia, favor-driven, possessive antihero romance. For mature listeners.
