Publisher's summary

I never imagined the protector I longed for would be a mob boss who demanded complete control. I shouldn’t have gone to Lucien’s office.

Once I looked into his eyes, I couldn’t leave. He commanded me to kneel. Beg. Obey. I couldn’t help myself. One taste, and I craved more.

Lucien vowed to protect me from his enemies.... But who’s going to protect my heart from him?

This MM mafia romance is the first book in the Marchesi family series.

Stockholm Syndrome the book/series

There is so much to say about this book! I am not an expert on Dom/Sub relationships. I know that the sub/dom relationship can exend outside of the bedroom, but this book doesn't understand safe words (pretty basic) nor does it care about consent. Putting that aside my another problem with this book is the author never pre-established Peter wanting to be in a sub/dom relationship. So after meeting his boss, and after the first time Peter is asked to obey,  Peter is then all about having someone dominate him. Without the pre-established desire for a sub/dom relationship I cannot suspend my disbelief. I have bought other titles from this author and I have liked them, but this series is too toxic for consumption. This book makes the relationship in the Twilight look warm and cuddly by comparison. I am worried for the people who rated this title well.

Exceptional

Lucian is a tough mafia leader who has a soft heart very carefully hidden inside. Peter is a shy young man who is sweet but has learned to hide from the dangers in life. From the first meeting the chemistry is explosive. Angel and Devil are the slightly younger brother and cousin who certainly brightens up Lucian's life.

On a personal note, I am NOT normally a fan of crime stories like this. Having said that, this didn't get too crazy for me. Death yes, mention of some crime, yes but not the sadistic stuff I can't handle.

I really enjoyed it. I will eagerly await the next in the series.

A steamy opposites attract mafia romance!

Marchesi Family series and can be listened as a standalone.

This was a steamy and sexy opposites attract!
Lucien is rough on the outside but has a soft side he reserves for people closest to him.
Peter is timid and sweet and when he meets Lucien they clash in the best way possible.

The characters are real, raw and well fleshed out and the writing was engaging. The storyline was compelling and descriptive.

I absolutely loved listening to this, especially with Michael Dean's amazing narration and audio delivery.

MM Mafia Done Right

Silvia Violet does MM Mafia the right way. Engaging from the start to finish with all the action action suspense mixed perfectly with feels and heat you have come to expect from her. Michael does another fab job of bringing each character to life. Bring on book 2.

HOT!!

Wow!! I’d been hearing how amazing this series was in audio, so I waited to pick it up until I could binge all 3 books of the Marchesi Family. Everyone was right. Holy hotness, the narration of this is off the charts HOT. Michael Dean immediately pulled me into this story. His voice for Lucien was so perfectly rough and growly and I loved it. He did such an amazing job telling Lucien and Peter’s story. Honestly there is nothing I didn’t love about this book. There is action, dominance, super smoking hot sexy times and a Mafia family you have to know about. I was immediately in love with both Peter and Lucien. Peter was such a sweet and gentle soul, you wanted someone who was going to protect to him and claim him as their own. In comes Lucien, an alpha male Mafia boss who wanted to dominate and claim Peter as his own. Their chemistry was AMAZING. I loved Lucien’s brand of dominance and Peter’s sweet submission. I’m so sucked into the Marchesi Family I can’t wait to listen to the rest.

A Lust-filled story with heart

So these two were pretty dysfunctional, I mean Lucian basically kidnapped Peter, but they also burned with chemistry. Despite Peter’s initial fear of Lucien he couldn’t fight his overwhelming attraction to Lucien, and even though Lucien tried to keep his emotions out of it was clear from the start his need for Peter was just as emotional as it was sexual. I did like the background story as well, finding out who the mole was and what side Peter’s cousin would land at the end of this. I actually wouldn’t mind a story on Jimmy tbh cause I know there are stories for Lucian’s brother and cousin. I have read some of the spin-offs before this from the Vigilance and Theriot so it was nice to see where those worlds started. I would have liked a little more prologue and to see Lucian’s father fully welcome Peter into the family but maybe that will be touched on later in the series if in just a background way. Either way I enjoyed this a lot, Michael Dean never disappoints with his narrations and I haven’t run into a Silvia Violet book I didn’t enjoy.

Weak Character

Good story but all of the boys should not be so weak and girl like. Have listen to many of the books and none of the sub characters are anything but girl like.
