Publisher's summary

I warned you. I told you not to set foot in my casino again. I told you to stay away. Because if I see those hips swinging around my suite, I’ll pin you against the wall and take you hard. And once I make you mine, I’m not going to set you free. I’m king of the Vegas underground, and I take what I want.

So run. Stay the hell away from my casino. Or I’ll tie you to my bed. Put you on your knees. Break you.

So come to me, beautiful, if you dare....

Critic reviews

"Dark, dirty, and perfect - Renee Rose has mastered this genre." (USA Today best-selling author Alta Hensley)

A Great Stunner From Ms. Rose

Just lije with every other story Ms. Renee Rose gives us; it just stays on point. This audible was incerdibly enjoyable. With its bad boy mafia boss and the sweet girl next door; it just makes the sparks that fly more intensely bright. This is a hot dark story about the Mafia boss who had all the goodness literally in the palm of his hand and he wanted to keep it. Then you have the sweet girl next door who always seemed to fall for the bad boys. Their adventure is sweet and dark. A great audible that I would highly recommend!

An alright story with hints of kink

I was expecting a little more from this book, although it's hard to pinpoint what's missing. I may be biased because the length was shorter than what I'm usually used to though. The narration was great and I always enjoy listening to Benjamin's performances. I don't know if I'd be willing to try another book in the series out of concern they may be the same, very concise stories with a little kinkiness here and there but not enough to really sink your teeth into. Worth the credit? Eh, I suppose so. It was a good listen.

Read to me again please

I read (and loved) the book, but was curious what the audible would be like. The performance was excellent, made the story come alive and (fans self) the swoon worthy voice of the narrator brought a new dimension to the story that made it so much better. And hotter. Oh yeah. Certain parts of this you are going to want to be alone while you listen (wink wink).

Loved Nico!

This was a great book. I totally loved Nico, although he was totally dominant. Benjamin Sands did a good job with the narration. Moving on to Jack of Spades.

Real live and steamy romance.

This book was well written and the story line kept you on pins and needles trying to figure out what would happen next. Reading it on Audible gave you the feeling that you were right there living this story. I never knew how it would end until the very end. It was an happy ending. If you love reading a true and exciting romance through the end and holding your attention, then you can’t go wrong with this book, I will probably read it one more time to see if I missed anything.

An actual Adult woman heroine

Stars: 4
Sexual Orientation: M/F
HEA or Chain: HEA with a series for other

I would say it had very minimal dark themes but very minimal. There was some Sirs and Spankings but that’s about the extent of it.

Hero: I liked him. He’s well written with could be considered real world problems. He’s dominant, mafia and owner of a casino.

Heroine: An actual adult woman!! She’s graduated and already been working so yeah not another 18 and 19 year old story. She’s also well written but she went from being intensely curious of Mafia to a big OMG you have a gun! So yeah.

Best part of the book: I enjoyed the courtship that happened. There was give and take, so much better than meeting someone and marrying them in 48 hrs, lol. I must say I really enjoyed this book.

Worst part of the book: Don’t really have a worse part this time, I wish it was longer. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was cause I wasn’t OMG I need the next book!!! I will read the next book but Im not anxious like some others.

I've had my eye on this series for a while!!

Whew! It does not disappoint. A bit dark and completely fabulous. Great characters and super narration lends itself to a highly entertaining experience.

Man this book was all kinds oh yummy

This is the first mafia romance that I have listened to. Loved the main and secondary characters hoping to see them in future audiobooks. Both main characters in my opinion are strong. Who doesn’t love a brooding alpha male and a smart woman. Mafia with kinky sex, you can’t go wrong.
I loved this red hot romance! I love everything Renee Rose writes. Highly recommend you won’t be disappointed.

OUTSTANDING I ACTUALLY LISTENED TO IT 2 TIMES!

WOW! REALLY HOPE RENEE ROSE KEEPS GOING AND GOING WITH THIS SERIES! I LOVE THE STORY LINE LOVE THE CHARACTERS REALLY LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE BOOK!

Another winner by Renee Rose

I am not much for the mafia type novel. That being said this was an exceptional read. It helped to change that feeling about them as a character set. I enjoyed the characters and the story development. The narrator was really engaging and made listening a wonderful experience. I would recommend this book in any form. I prefer audio books as they are more exciting. This book came to life through this audio version. I look forward to the next mafia novel that Renee creates. Thanks to Renee for having this novel produced audibly.
