Beneath the Mask Series, Book 2

By: Luna Mason

Narrated by: Maxine Mitchell, Robert Hatchet

Grayson

Seven years ago, I left the special forces and my home after a tragic betrayal. I carefully constructed a new life in New York. I thought I had it all. A world-famous boxing trainer by day. A mafia hit man by night. Free to live in the darkness to do what I was trained to do. To kill. I finally felt free.

But one kiss was all it took to shatter life as I knew it. The one woman who hated my guts scaled the walls I built around my black heart. My ray of sunshine.

Just when I believed I could have it all, life blows it up right before my eyes. I know how far I’m willing to go to fight for her. But can she truly love someone who could never give her the fairy tale she so desperately craves?

Maddie

I was sick of being the family disappointment. The one who could never get a man to stick around. So I kissed a lot of frogs to try to find my prince. Instead, I fell in love with the villain. The last man on earth I thought I could ever love.

He might call me sunshine, but I crave his darkness. I wasn’t meant for his world, but he took me anyway, and I never wanted to leave. Sometimes, life doesn’t give you a choice. Can I give up on my search when I have the monster offering me the world? Even if loving me puts us both in danger.

So Emotional, Love It

Maxine and Robert are two of my top 10 performers. They are so emotional, and everything comes with them, tears, laughter, shock, they're they best together. The storyline was good that I got through this book in a day or two, great while driving home.

Mafia with great banter

I just love a mafia romance. Greyson and Maddie are the definition of enemies to lovers. They bicker and love to get under one another’s skin. However, it quickly becomes apparent that the “hate” they feel is in fact fueled by desire. After denying their connection for over a year, one night together makes Greyson realize he will never let Maddie go.

This was a hot and spicy read with a sassy FMC and a possessive, obsessed MMC. Basically everything you want to see in a mafia romance. I also really loved all of the side characters and I cannot wait for book 3!

I lowered my rating slightly because the tension broke so quickly. Greyson went a year denying his feeling for this woman but we didn’t see that struggle in the book. I would have liked a little more struggle and tension. Overall, this was a really fun read.
