Nasty Bet

The Anti-Hero Chronicles, Book 2

By: Mika Lane

Narrated by: Laurie West

The things they made me do...

Okay. So I’m not perfect. In fact, I might have a little problem. And it might involve breaking the law. So, when mob boss Leo Borroni and his buddies catch me in the act, well, I’m pretty much screwed.

They take bets on how far I’ll go to get out of the mess I'm in.

And the winner?

Well, it looks like he gets...me.

This hot, over-the-top romance includes sexy mafia hit men with a penchant for pursuing and protecting the women who give them a run for their money.

If you love outrageously naughty stories as a way to indulge your not-so-secret bad girl side, this is for you!

Loving Leo

Book 2 of the Anti-Hero Chronicles proves to be as much fun as the first! I thought Luca was going to be the one of the twins that I love, but Leo shows his warm, passionate side in his story, Nasty Bet. Maray is an ordinary girl, trying to make her way through college. She belongs to a sorority whose members are upscale and snooty. To keep up with them, she attempts to steal an expensive hand bag and Leo catches her. And our fun begins. He and his friends make a bet of things she will do, but in the midst of it all, she spends the most time with Leo. What I really love about this book is the transformation of Maray. She starts out a little mousey, and with a little guidance finds her inner self and confidence. Leo is the perfect match, with his over protectiveness and ability to see what she can become. I can't wait to see what happens next in this series. It's exciting, the couples are easy to become invested in and the action just makes this romantic suspense shine.

Laurie West continues her narration of the series and brings it all to life. She is a fantastic storyteller with a variety of voices that are easy on the ears and can be distinguished effortlessly. Loved this one too!

Nasty Bet

Enjoyed book 1 better than book 2. I was not a fan of Leo, who is Luca's twin from book 1. I did not care for him in book 1 either and could not connect with him. I will try this one again at a later date and, at that time, update the review if necessary. Laurie West did a very good job with the narration. I received this free copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
