Fractured Secrets

Lies of the Underworld, Book 2

De: Haley Jenner

Narrado por: Veronica Fox, Jason Clarke

Gabriella Ferrari is new to the mafia life.

Following the devastating loss of her mother, and with no other options, Gabriella seeks out the morally gray men her mother begged her to avoid.

A family found in mourning, Gabriella struggles to live within the confines of the fractured secrets her mother bestowed upon her.

She's traded one prison for another. Yet, while protecting her life is a reality she's all too familiar with, guarding her heart never even crossed her mind.

Standing at the altar, forcefully betrothed to one man, she pledges her life to another. A man she despises. Her brother's best friend and the head of the family.

Lorenzo Caruso may be a boss, but she'd sooner stomp on her own heart than hand it to him, even if she does like the way he makes her feel behind closed doors.

Up for the challenge and accustomed to getting what he wants, Lorenzo is determined to hold the little liar's heart in his hands before she even realizes it's missing.

The question is... what does he plan to do with it once he's claimed it...

Great but the audio cuts off

The performance was great. Story is good. The main issue is that the audio cuts off at around the 4th or 5th paragraph in the Epilogue (last chapter of audio book). It literally cuts off in the middle of a word and goes straight to end credits. Very sad.

it was good-but cut off mid epilogue

it was good but for some reason it cut off mid epilogue!!!

it was excellent performance

Amazing narration and solid story

Narration was 10/10 duet narrated. Spice 3-4: lots of it with details and well-written. Nothing too klnky (no NC or BDSM).
Story had complexity and great character depth. Side characters added additional complexity and I liked how it ran parallel with book 1. A little over the top effusive and melodramatic in some parts, but in the typical way of over possessive MMC with touch her and X vibes.

Good

ok first 6 hours was recap of 1st book from Enzo and Gabbys point of view. could have really condensed. last 7 hours great. narration great! I will continue as long as next book isnt 13 hours.

sssooo goood

• Thoughts:
I liked this book a lot. I liked the 1st book. This one. Really good. It does overlap the first book. So for the first oh I dunno 50 ish percent if the book. The events that took place in the first book you are reliving in this book. However, I felt it was needed and done very well! Since you are getting how these 2 MC's connected and fell for one another.

Narrator Thoughts:
The duet style narration was amazing. Jason Clarke and Veronica Fox are the narrators, and they were incredible
