Empress in Lingerie

Lingerie Series, Book 5

De: Penelope Sky

Narrado por: Michael Ferraiuolo, Natalie Eaton

I'm Vanessa Barsetti, the daughter of the infamous Crow Barsetti.

My father taught me how to fight. If a man lays a hand on me, I'll put him in his grave. As a Barsetti, I'm proud, stubborn, and don't take nonsense from anybody.

I walk home from a bar and take the wrong path.

And witness a brutal crime.

The murderer won't let me go. He's handsome, lethal, and terrifying. With tattoos on his forearms and a presence full of threat, he's a shade of evil I've never encountered. And then he tells me the most terrifying thing of all.

His name is Bones.

EXPLOSIVE AND SO FREAKIN GOOD

This time its Crow and Buttons daughter Vanessa who gets entangled in a desperate push/pull relationship with a sworn enemy when she accidentally witnesses Bones doing what he does best and what he is paid to do.. killing someone. It was an accidental meeting.. Vanessa was in the wrong place at the worst time.. however, Bones took the opportunity and grabbed her with the sole intention of humiliating her, videoing her and ultimately killing her on camera to send to Crow as revenge for his father. But, when Vanessa shows she is tough and determined to survive by fighting him at every chance, lines get blurred and things get hot and emotionally very complicated.

I love the way Penelope Sky writes.. she draws you into an instantly addictive dark and twisted story of hate and passion.. and she makes you intrigued by a sexy dangerous alpha anti-hero who you know you shouldnt like but whose backstory has you warming, melting, forgiving, routing and ultimately falling for. However, we are not there yet with the merciless Bones as this ends on a cliffhanger.. and even then it will take ten more books before all the Barsetti family members get their HEA ending.. thankfully they are all written and should be released monthly. This book has explosive chemistry, palpable tension, sensual scenes, angst, suspense and sex (no rape) as Bones and Vanessa tentatively reach an agreement.. a deadly pact.. and a tumultuous relationship that is promised to end in bloodshed.

Worth a credit? Definitely YES.. I have loved each and every thrilling book in the Lingerie series and I always crave the next dual POV instalment because I know its going to be epic and awesome. Great narration brings this riveting storyline to life and ensures its a 5 star listen.

Bones & Vanessa

*****Spoiler Alert*****

Audible review. Dual POV. Lingerie Series Book 5 of 15. There is so much more story to tell for this couple, it ended far too soon. Narrated in an average American accent even though both characters were born and raised in Italy; Michael's narration makes it seem like he's bored with the story. Trigger warnings: kidnapping; murders; bondage.

Vanessa witnesses Bones murder a man, he then takes & drugs her, he dumps the body of the man he killed, Vanessa shoots Bones in the arm, he has her stitch up his wound, Bones tells Vanessa that both her aunt and mom had been his dad's slaves, that his mom killed his dad and that now he would kill her but he couldn't do it. Bones put a tracker in Vanessa's ankle. He promises not to touch any of her family members as long as she doesn't tell them about what he's done to her and continues to be his. Vanessa and family spend Christmas together, she talks to Crow (her father) about dropping out of school and selling her paintings at the winery. When she returns to her home Bones takes her to one of his other houses where he set up a room for her to paint, takes a pic of her in lingerie and then demands that she paint it for him. He left her in his home while he went to "work" (he's a hitman). Vanessa completes the painting of herself, realizes he wanted it to remember her by after he kills her, she takes it to her own apartment and prepares to shoot him, Bones returns, she tries to kill him but can't pull the trigger, he shows her that it wasn't loaded.
