Forget-Me-Not Bombshell

De: Caroline Peckham, Susanne Valenti

Narrado por: Laurie Catherine Winkel, Troy Duran

I was sold to my enemies.

The Butchers of the London mob, who run an empire built on sin and greed. The stories I’ve heard about the way they rule their underworld are enough to make my heart race. But those rumors have nothing on the truth.

Danny, Church, Frank. The three men who own me now. The head of this so-called kingdom and the two savages who enforce his wrath.

They made a peace deal with my family, which came at a cost—me. A mafia princess gifted to them as a bride.

So here I am in my white dress with a gun to my head and a knife in my garter.

I won’t become their plaything. I won’t become their prize.

The war between our families might have ended with this union, but I’m starting a battle of my own. And I’ll trade my body for a chance to leave this wedded bliss behind.

The only question left is whether they’ll be the ones bleeding out, or if I’ll end up with my heart torn from my chest and fed to these hungry British dogs.

This is a dark mafia romance where the main character will end up with more than one love interest and is part of a series of stand-alone books, Mafia Wars.

Perfection!

I am so happy I got this book on audible because the narration definitely elevated this book even more. I wasn’t exaggerating when I say Perfection! The writing, plot, and smut are all 5 ⭐️s. This is my first Caroline Peckham, Susanne Valenti book and I can’t wait to add more to my TBR. I mainly read books on mg kindle and occasionally I will listen to an audio book, if you’re trying to decide DEFINITELY listen to this one. Narration is amazing in it. Highly recommend

Good story, mediocre narration

The story itself is engrossing, with lots of suspense and surprising turns. Unfortunately, the (really) bad and inconsistent accents distract from a good story. (BTW, Troy, infinitessimal has 6 syllables, not 5.) I enjoyed reading the book much more than listening to it.


Read the book, skip the audio book.

best of the series

it was long but filling. perfect amount of action and spice. the characters really came alive and the epilog was perfect hea

Loved this story

I read it when it first came out and devoured this story. The Narrators took it to the next level. A mafia princess who’s part of a pact that the families came up with to keep the peace. She has to marry a member of the English family. Just listen to this story it’s got everything, it’s dark and violent but appropriate for the story line. There’s found family, laughs, cons, a little kidnapping and a very satisfying honeymoon-

It was…okay.

Let me preface by saying that I LOVE the Twisted Sister authors, but this story…lacked. I almost DNF, but pushed through because I didn’t want to disappoint C&S (as if they’d ever know).
I always love their female leads. They’re witty and independent but for some reason this story just always had me wanting more.
For spice factor, this book get 5/5 peppers, but the story? It’s hard to explain, but even with 26 hours, I was just left unsatisfied.
As for the narrators, I think they did a great job! Only thing that would make the audio better would be duet narration.
I don’t regret listening, but it’s not one I would listen to again.

Mafia wars best

Definitely one of the best Mafia Wars books I’ve listened to. I would say at least #2 in my heart lol

Overall.

This was overall a fun listen. While I prefer male voices be done by the male performer and likewise with the female performer, I was able to get past that. Laurie was more talented with the array of accents required vs. Troy, even though her voice sounds quite young, so it all flushed out. I will say I love Troy’s gritty baritone voice. Damn sexy! The writing/story was fun and creative, as to be expected by this dream team. What I did appreciate was the length of the story vs. how writers are now only giving you 6-9 hours of storytelling so they can come out with another book. I prefer investing in a good 20+ hour listen even if there is another release in a series.

Another great read

This book was great. I found the female lead to be strong, which is always nice to see in a story but she also came across like a brat at times. The men were great, sexy the accents were hot! Definitely worth the credit!!!

Awesome!!!

I'm not sure why I didn't listen to this sooner. These authors have the best books. Narrators nailed it! Also, I love Church! I seriously need a church in my life

The best out of the series

All the books in the Mafia Wars series are good, but this one is the BEST. This one, Ruining Dahlia, & Blade of Iris have the best character development & character story.
