An Enemies to Lovers Mafia Romance

De: Sophie Lark

Narrado por: Faith Clark, Alan Carlson

They murdered my father, so I stole their daughter....

She’s my captive, my little ballerina who dances only for me.

Nessa is sweet and innocent. She doesn’t deserve any of this. But that’s how our world works. The wolves eat the lambs, no matter how gentle they may be.

I’ll use her to get my revenge. Unless I give in to my hunger first....

Stolen Heir is the dark and gothic second act of the Brutal Birthright series. It’s a stand-alone enemies to lovers romance, complete with HEA and no cliffhangers. It contains blazing hot bedroom scenes for mature listeners only!!!

Fantastic

I loved the difference in the characters, the atypical enemies to lovers
Narration was spectacular

Creative, dark reimagining

My Rating: ❤️❤️❤️❤️.5

In Short: Retellings can be hard to do well. Sophie did this loose Beauty and the Beast retelling really well. Dark, gothic, and executed well.

General Thoughts: The first caught me by surprise by how much I loved it. So, I had high expectations for this one. It didn't disappoint. Retellings/reimaginings can be hard to do well, because you always feel like you know how the story is going to end. Sophie did this one well. Close enough that you felt the familiarity of the classic story but new enough that it still felt fresh. How she made me love these two characters? I love the contrast between the FMCs in books one and two and how the author shows both a bolder, in-your-face character and a quieter, gentler character can both be strong in their own way. These books are dark. This one had the added appeal of having a Gothic vibe. Really strong writing by Sophie. Onto the third now. I received a review copy and a review listening copy for free and am leaving this review voluntarily.

Spice Meter: ❤️‍🔥.5 Slow burn book, so not as spicy as some.

A great beauty and the beast retelling with mafia goodness

I absolutely love that Stolen Heir is a interconnected standalone and if you read Brutal Prince, you will see some returning characters. Miko is the “son” of The Butcher and after his father’s death he wanted revenge. And what better way to do that then take something from the Griffin family that they treasure, the baby of the family Nessa. This story had me in the chokehold from the beginning, just the hatred and anger you feel from Miko and all the light from Nessa. Stolen Heir is an excellent enemies to lovers, they are polar opposites but complete each other so perfectly. Sophie Lark’s books always just pull you in to their world. I don’t regret staying up until 2am devouring Stolen Heir , it was mafia yumminess.

Breathtaking emotional perfection

My favorite most personal relatable story yet. Don't wait once you start. BUY THEM ALL!!

Loves this book so much

This was an amazing book, the spice is 3 1/2 flames and the story is a 5 star! Loved it so much! Cannot wait to read the third book!

OMG!! That Accent! 💜

I’m so addicted to this series and it gets better and better with each story.
Sophie Lark does an amazing job bringing all these characters together each having their own unique story. So romantic in a Stockholm sorta way lol. This story has angst, romance, suspense and camaraderie. I love all the characters.
Faith Clark was absolutely brilliant as Nessa. Her performance and voice fit her character perfectly.
Alan Carlson couldn’t be more sexy if he tried. His voice is absolutely amazing as the average hero but his accent was so sexy, I could listen to him all day. Well done everyone!
This is book 2 with an HEA and can be read as a standalone.
I highly recommend this book/series.

Enemies To Lovers Mafia Romance

Stolen Heir by Sophie Lark is an enemies to lovers mafia romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Faith Clark and Alan Carlson. This is the second book in the Brutal Birthright series and each book can be read as a stand-alone.

This is the second book of Sophie’s that I have read and it definitely won’t be my last. I was hooked from the first chapter and couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next. I really enjoyed the relationship between Miko and Nessa.

I can’t wait for the next book in the series Savage Lover to be released on audio so I can get Camille and Nero’s story.

Faith and Alan did a great job on the narration. I can’t wait to listen to more of their work in the future.

I would highly recommend this book if you love enemies to lovers, mafia romances, or romantic suspense.

Enemies to lovers

So good. The female voice was not my favorite voice actor I’ve heard but the voice actor for Miko was perfect. Loved the story all around

The ballerina and the beast

Beauty and the beast vibes, but mafia style! The Ballerina and the beast is more fitting for this one. Nico was intense right off the bat while Nessa was so soft and naive. She softened him up pretty quick, though. Grumpy/Sunshine, opposites attract, forced proximity, virgin FMC. Loved this read!
