Ruin

By: CD Reiss

Narrated by: Brian Pallino, Mindy Kennedy

The thrilling follow-up to the best-selling Mafia romance.

Antonio is a killer. He's beautiful and educated, a prodigy of a thief, and as violent a badass as ever came off the boat from Napoli. Theresa knows it, but that doesn't stop her from getting emotionally and physically entangled with him, and this is how she gets it in her head that she can protect him. But it's not her job to save him, and she's just not getting that. Every time she tries to protect him, she practically gets him killed, and the tighter he grips her, the more dangerous she becomes. It's almost as if protecting her the way he does is the one thing he should stop. As if the only way he's ever going to find a moment's peace is to just embrace her as a partner rather than a defenseless creature. But he'd never do that. Not this violent badass.

WARNING: This book contains delicious sex scenes with a hot man dirty talking in Italian; women handling firearms and explosives; and scenes of violence with a crystal Virgin Mary cigarette lighter.

loved it

I really enjoyed reading this book. I look forward to reading more books by this author in the near future.

THE DRAMA IS RISING... SO TOO IS MY BLOOD PRESSURE

More nerve-racking and action-packed drama as Antonio and Theresa's worlds continue to collide and spin out of control. But they're holding on tight to one another and will destroy anyone who threatens or stands in their way of them being together forever..... but unfortunately the tension and danger is rising and amplifying because, as much as they want to stay together, external and internal enemies are sharpening their blades, loading their weapons and making plans.

I just couldn't stop listening as the plot continues to crank up the suspense and danger - as well as Antonio and Theresa's deep love and passion for each other.... which results in some pretty hot sex scenes.

This time the story was dual POV and Brian Pallino's sexy and smooth Italian accent gave it authenticity and made this a bellissimo listen as he seamlessly flipped from American, female and Italian accents with ease. Mindy Kennedy did a great job too.

Worth a credit? For just one credit I got so much in return...... an exciting, unpredictable and emotional plot with action-packed drama, angst, steamy sex scenes and a very romantic and passionate love story. So YES, I'm one happy listener.

Entire series pretty good!

Any additional comments?

Entire series was pretty interesting and suspenseful. I was at least interested the whole time unlike a few others I have read as of late. Was worth my time.

WOW!!

What a love story! Christine you out did yourself. I thought Mr. Fastbender (I may have spelled his name wrong) but you get me. ) was something but “contesa and Capo is what love stories are about! I also loved Monica and Jonathan but these 2!! They will burn the earth for each other! Holy “Front door”!!!!

5 AMAZING STARS!!!!!!

This book was unreal! I enjoyed every thrilling second. CD Reiss knows how to keep you on the edge and Mindy Kennedy did another stellar job of narrating, totally bringing Theresa and Antonio to life. These two gave the term RUIN a new meaning, and it was EPIC. 5 delicious stars for an amazing and intriguing, romantic journey! Highly recommended and credit worthy.

The drama and deliciousness get hotter and hotter!

What made the experience of listening to Ruin the most enjoyable?

Brian Patillo as Antonio Spinelli! His authentic Italian accent offered a deeper appreciation of Antonio's character. Mindy did a phenomenal job as Antonio as well!

What did you like best about this story?

As a reader, I loved the growth between the Capo and his Contessa. Their relationship evolved so much in this second installment. I absolutely love and agree a gazillion percent of Theresa submitting to her Capo!

What does Brian Pallino and Mindy Kennedy bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The duo definitely bought the book to life! I felt as if I rushed through the book because I wanted to know what happened. With the audio I could savor the relationship between the Capo and his Contessa. I experienced every wonder and experience with them as it happened. Brian and Mindy's chemistry...no words! It's beyond phenomenal!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Definitely not! Like fine wine this story is meant to be savored and consumed leisurely.

Any additional comments?

I cannot wait until book 3 is on audio! I absolutely adore this series and the narrators!

Another one for the passion. Oh my goodness Antonio is just a fictional character but how wonderful it would be to have that sensual relationship with him. Bravo!👏👏
