Publisher's summary

In a world where the secret society and the Bratva reigns, villains and monsters own you from birth.

I was torn between two hearts: The devil who stole me and the man I was promised to.

I was supposed to marry Viktor Volkova, heir to one of the most powerful families in the society. But his older brother stole me on our wedding day, just as we were about to take our vows. Like a hellish wild card, Desmier Volkova stormed into my life, seeking revenge for my father’s sins. He forced me to marry him, dragging me into his game of lies, revenge, and deceit.

Then our twisted arrangement turned into something else neither of us saw coming—obsession, passion, and a war between three hearts. A war that will either destroy me, or the man I choose to love. Everything spirals out of control when skeletons from the past unleash dark secrets and whispers of death. Then the real war starts, and I won’t just be risking my heart.

Devil’s Kiss is a dark mafia enemies-to-lovers arranged marriage romance, which is part of the Savage Legacy series. This book is a stand-alone romance that contains dark themes, dubious situations, mature content, and graphic violence some listeners might find offensive and/or triggering.

Wow what a Story!!! 🩷

Hands down one of my favorites. Loved it. I couldn't put it down!! 🩷 Can't wait for the rest of the series. This needs to be a movie. Desmier and Anastacia. This one you will listen to it over and over. Great story! Performance was excellent, story was nail-biting, overall 5 stars.

An amazing story! Loved every minute.

This book far exceeded my expectations!

The twists and turns in this story were well done. I enjoyed the pace and progression of the characters. My only "criticism" is that Sarah Puckett sounds so much older than Michael Gallagher, but both narrators did an excellent job on this.

I can't wait for the next book in the series!

Loved it!!!!!

Sooo good! Just the right amount of spice and the story kept me up late because I just had to know what was coming next!

💘💘💘 WHAT A VERY VERY NICE SURPRISE 💘💘💘

This action-packed listen wasn’t absolutely perfect, but it grabbed my attention, hooked me in from the start and I really enjoyed it!!

Twenty-eight yr old Desmier and nineteen yr old Anastasia’s story is not a love triangle.. but a twisted rollercoaster of revenge, lies, secrets, betrayal, combustible chemistry, angst, mystery, a discovering of truths, murder and a united love overcoming enemies. Anastasia’s hand was given in a Brotherhood of Knights Bratva contract signed in blood to a firstborn son.. but that son is not the one she thinks she loves who’s standing at the alter. Instead, handsome ruthless ba$tard son Desmier will claim his rights.. will be a virgin’s first and last.. will get his revenge.. will open her naive sheltered eyes.. and will fall in love with his enemy’s daughter. Anastasia was just groomed to be a sacrificial pawn.. but, through her twisted journey of revelations, she will become so so much more. This isn’t an ‘insta’ romance - Desmier makes his claims, throws spanners in the enemy’s sinister plans and takes the bride. However, he also waits a few weeks where there’s a time of friction and fire and a time of getting closer for them. And then he becomes obsessed and protective, Anastasia is strong, she starts to understand, empathize, care and fall in love with her damaged fiancé. And then comes their long-awaited wedding vows. There’s sizzles and some hot steam and OW/OM drama but no cheating. It does finish with a happy ending.. but a villain is yet to be caught - so does book 2 continue through someone else’s story 🤷🏻‍♀️.

Worth a credit? Yes, I thought the drama, action, family angst and chemistry expanded into a really really good listen. Ok some parts were a wee bit predictable, but then there’s surprises in there too and a “meh” who cares flaw or two which didn’t spoil anything. The drama and mystery flowed well.. the romance had a nice grumble and growth to it.. the cold-hearted hero was redeemable.. the heroine wasn’t stupid and the dual POV narration was good.

Great storyline

Normally I cannot listen to books that I have not read first, but I did with this one and I absolutely loved it.

worth it

This was a pleasant surprise, just wow.

I highly recommend it

the narrators were excellent.

Wow! Really Great!

Action, suspense and mafia romance - what more can you ask for! The writing is excellent and the dialogue is believable. The narration is fantastic as well. There is action from beginning to end and it kept me drawn in. You could definitely stop after this book, but there is a teaser for the next book - which isn’t out yet.

Just really enjoyed this one! This author is new to me and I’m going to listen to more from her for sure!

Nice plot twist in this book. I wish I had a book 2 ready to read.

Couldn't finish

I tried but I just can't. I have listened to so many books and this one just didn't do it for me. Narrators were just so blah.
