A Dark Mafia Romance

Love is gentle, love is kind, but my love kills.

Introducing a new, steamy Italian mafia romance must-listen for fans of Sophie Lark, Ana Huang, and Sadie Kincaid!

Sold to the mob.

Four words I never thought I'd utter.

Worse, it was my father who did the unthinkable.

When the creditors come to collect, I'm handed over to the most ruthless man in New York City—Luca Valentino.

The head of the notorious Kings is as gorgeous as he is lethal. Dark, possessive, and violent. Nothing like the boy I grew up with, my dead brother's best friend.

And now I'm his….

The longer I spend in this gilded cage, the more certain I become he will ruin me for anyone else.

Buy this audiobook now to devour this spicy, enemies-to-lovers mafia romance. I dare you not to fall for Luca Valentino!

Ruthless King is the first fiery story in the blazing hot Kings of Temptation series. Each book is a stand-alone novel, complete with a HEA, of course, because even villains deserve a happy ending. Please note: This is a dark romance novel with scenes that may be triggering and sexually explicit in nature.

This book captured my attention immediately. The author did a great job. The pace was great, and I liked the characters.

The male narrator had a strange accent. It felt like he was pushing his voice to be deeper than his normal range, and it was occasionally distracting. The female narrator was fantastic.

Overall, this was worth the time and credit. I would definitely recommend it.

Good story

This is my first mafia romance. It had true mafia vibes with all the action, drama, and love; and of course, those spicy scenes were HOT.

Good narration.

Book has to may Latin works every other work was Latin and I assume a curse work. Could have been a bit less.

Fair listen

The characters

... this is the example they would use. It was too predictable. The use of the Italian language was as if someone googled a few words and then used them on repeat to try and build a character. Any actual sentence in Italian was quickly followed by an explanation as if any bilingual person talks like that. The accent on the mc sound South America. Nothing wrong with that if you ignore the fact that he is supposed to be Italian. There is no real story line here. Girl gets sold to the mob by her dad . After having a hard life and dating a douching that is in the rival gang of her " new owner." She falls for him and is put off by his ex, so he has to prove himself to her. They f.. a bunch and once there relationship is cemented, he "betrays" her (really weak in this story.) She leaves, he let's her go.( cause love.) Even though he's pointed out several times that she's in danger because he loves her. She gets kidnapped by her ex from the rival gang and he saves her. They live happily ever after. Que weak intro to storyline of next book and fade to Black.
There I saved you a credit.

(Spoilers, kinf of) If there was a blueprint on how to write a basic mob romance...
