Shield and Savior

The Four Families Series

By: Meg Fitzpatrick

Narrated by: Christian Leatherman, Paige Reisenfeld

She feels unwanted and alone. He never thought he needed anyone. Will a simple job unlock a match made in mafia heaven?

Izzy Marciano hates being the prodigal daughter. But with her ex getting too stalkery for comfort, the competitive single mom grabs her nine-year-old son and retreats to the safety of her mob-boss dad’s East Coast stronghold. And when her father hires a smoking-hot bodyguard, she has to constantly remind herself that the chiseled guardian is supposed to be totally off-limits.

Lance is loyal to the core. So the skilled security specialist forces himself to ignore the sizzling attraction between himself and his adorable new assignment beyond some laid-back flirting. But when she erupts after being denied cake at a tension-filled wedding, amusement at her over-the-top frustration leads him to offer a delicious kiss as the perfect dessert.

Delighted by the fierce man’s gentle embraces, Izzy is brought harshly down to earth by a disturbing message from the past. And while Lance would do anything to make her smile, he fears that continuing to break the rules could leave them both lethally exposed.

Can they dodge an oncoming tragedy and arrive at happily ever after?

There’s no CAKE!?

I nearly cried at work because of this! I even had to stop and get cheesecake on my way home! Okay, but seriously the narration was great and I wasn’t lost at any point (that’s usually my trouble with duet narration but that didn’t happen here). I’m hoping Dimitri will have a book. 🥺🙏 Please Meg, Dimitri book, pretty please. 🥺

Absolutely loved this story!!

I absolutely loved this story! It checked all my Rom-Com boxes—witty banter, all the feels, swoon-worthy romance, and just the right amount of spice. Important to note: This is not a dark mafia romance. If that's what you're looking for, you’ll want to look elsewhere. This story feels more like the kind of comedy-mafia show I could easily see playing out on TV, and I'd binge every episode! The narrators are phenomenal, delivering multiple voices in a duet style, and they absolutely nailed it. The storyline was intriguing, and there’s clearly more to come. The only downside? As of now, only the next book is available in audiobook form. There are so many interesting side characters that I was hoping this was a spin-off from an established series... but no, this is the very beginning. (And what a strong start!) I cannot wait for book two! Highly recommend if you're in the mood for an excellent Rom-Com with a clever twist.
