Story4.5 out of 5 stars 318
You’ll judge me. Hate me, and tell me I’m wrong. Refuse to see how my darkness is what she needs. While I don’t particularly care about your feelings in the matter, and while I pursue her - despite the wedding bells that rang for another - only I can see how she is drowning beneath mediocrity. He had his chance to make her happy. He failed. He didn't see how she was dying inside, because he couldn't know her. Not like I know her. I am her stalker. Her protector. And the only man that can bring her back to life.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 29
Being attracted to her isn't wrong…but acting on it would be. As the patriarch of the powerful and wealthy Cavalieri family, my choices come with consequences for everyone around me. The roots of my ancestral, billionaire-dollar winery stretch deep into the rich Italian soil, as does our legacy of ruthlessness and scandal. It isn't the fact she is half my age that makes her off-limits. Nothing is off-limits for me. A wounded bird caught in a trap not of her own making, she poses no risk to me. My obsessive desire to possess her is the real problem—for both of us.

Mikhail Dmitriyev is a beautiful devil with a villainous heart and a thirst for revenge. The choices he gave me when he stole me away from my home with an army of men were very clear—marry me or die. I chose to marry him and live. But there’s one small problem with his grand plan to rain Armageddon on the Mexican Cartel. I’m not the woman he thinks I am. I’m not the cartel princess he thinks he took to make his enemies bow to him. When my captor finds out my secret and realizes he married the wrong woman, love won’t be enough to save me. And neither will his obsession.

I can still remember the moment I first heard Cyrus Holt's deep, commanding voice. I didn't know who he was or about the life he'd left behind. I was just a trembling orphan on the run from a monster, and he was the man offering me shelter and not giving me a choice about it. This boss of bosses didn't assign someone else to watch over me. He slept on the floor next to my bed when I woke up scared, then spanked me like a naughty little girl when I lied to him.

She calls it a devil’s bargain. I call it a deal she can’t refuse. I was owed a debt and I expected payment. That payment? One night in my bed. My rules. The debt cleared, and she could walk away. There are worse things. And besides, debtors can’t be choosers. The night started as it should. She obeyed as she should. But then something happened. Something I was unprepared for. And what I saw changed everything. I broke my own rules after that.

Of two things I'm certain: When something sounds too good to be true, it is; and when Alexius Del Rossa makes you a deal, you run far away and never look back. Me? I didn't run. I stayed. I opened that envelope, and I accepted his offer. Why? Because my life was a mess and on a downward spiral to a big, fat nothing. And he just offered me everything in exchange for six months of my life. It was supposed to be a simple arrangement, but I learned the hard way that nothing is simple when it comes to Alexius.

All I knew about life was anger and violence. Pain and suffering. Kill or be killed. I was a “fixer” for the Ruin - a syndicate for the Bratva, Cosa Nostra, Cartel, and any other organized crime faction that dealt in the darker, crueler aspects of humanity. I was a free agent who was called upon to do things weaker men didn’t have the stomach for. And when you surround yourself with death for long enough, soon you don’t remember what it felt like to be alive. And then I saw her.

Publisher's summary
It was an innocent mistake; she knocked on the wrong door. It was mine.
If I were a better man, I would've just let her go. But I'm not. I'm a cruel bastard. I ruthlessly claimed her virtue for my own. It should've been enough but it wasn't
I needed more...I craved it.
She became my obsession. Her sweetness and purity taunted my dark soul. The need to possess her nearly drove me mad. A Russian arms dealer had no business pursuing a naive librarian student. She didn't belong in my world. I would bring her only pain. But it was too late...she was mine and I was keeping her.
Sweet Cruelty is a dark romance stand-alone novel intended for mature audiences.

WARNING: Trigger Alert
The first five chapters of the book describe Emma's rape by Dimitri. Once she gets away from her rapist, her roommate calls her a slut for losing her virginity to a rapist "with a pirate scar." It goes downhill for another hour from there. Couldn't finish the book it was so poorly written. The only saving grace were the narrators.
If you are looking for a good Russian Bratva audiobook series - go check out JT Geissinger's Queens and Monsters.
Sweet Cruelty is NOT creditworthy.

Great book!
Dimitri was an over-the-top alpha and became extremely possessive and obsessed with Emma. With him, no meant nothing. He was filthy rich and when she knocked on his door by mistake looking for someone else, all bets are off. I hope Emma's best friend Mary, and Dimitri's best friend, Vaska, get books of their own. Lauren Sweet and Tor Thom did a great job with the narration. Tor Thom did an especially good job with the Russian accent.

LOVE
I love this book so much. It has been one of my favorites for a while. It is my go to when I can't decide what I want to read next. I was so excited to see that it was available on audible. I like to listen to books while I am working, doing chores around the house or when I want to actively want to ignore my husband and kids.
Lauren Sweet and Tor Thom had very pleasant voices to listen to. I found Lauren easier to listen hear clearly, probably because Tor's voice was significantly deeper so I had to focus more to hear him clearly, especially when he is using a Russian accent. Overall, the listening experience was great.

LOVED IT
Loved it!! I read the books almost a year ago, so when I came across "Sweet Cruelty " on audio I had to get it. It was narrated beautifully. I absolutely loved it.
I sincerely hope that the rest of series will follow.

Sweet Cruelty
Awful! I only got as far as the end of the 3rd chapter. The mmc was cruel, self centred and refused to listen when the fmc said no several times. When he realises she was a virgin and wonders if she is even of legal age, he is still determined to continue! (She was, but still….) I have to warn readers that this wasn’t dub con - it was rape! I usually like dark romance but this was too much for me!

Insta everything
Insta-love, insta-lust, dominant male, naive female, fast pace story. I didn't really get to know the characters or the relationship. The sex was rough and I'm usually fine with that but this felt a bit rapey. Always pain and no safeword and no consent (sometimes the opposite). If they're gonna play they should have safewords so that's a big no for me.

🔥🔥❤️ Hot romance
First time listening to this author and the book was surprisingly good. I really enjoyed it, I do tend to avoid sweet little librarian stories but this one was worth a listen. The narrators did an excellent job. 5 ⭐️

Straightforward story
I absolutely love this story. The contrast of Emma and Dimitri makes it wholesome. Though I prefer reading, being able to listen saves me time. Great story telling as well.

Deliciously hot and romantic
Good girl Emma meets Russian arms dealer Dimitri
She is a sweet virgin and he is a cruel criminal
The story is full of hot 🥵 scenes and some BDSM… I loved how Dimitri embraced his protective and possessive instincts towards Emma, and how Emma allowed herself to be open not only sexually but emotionally
This is a very sweet romance with tons of triggers… so please check those. There’s dub con and lots of spanking
Did I mentioned this is really hot?

Lacks plot but great narration
It’s better on the erotica than on the storyline but easy to listen to while doing other things.

Good story
Good story but it definitely needed more s*x. There were a few scenes that were discussed but we’re not elaborated on.
For example, Dimitri goes down on Emma in the shower, but there is no detail or dialogue of said scene.
More dialogue between Dimitri & Emma during s*x scenes would’ve made this story hotter.
Also the statement ‘you’ll be the death of me’ being constantly said was a little annoying.
The narrators did a good job.

Intense
Narrators were captivating, especially Tor Thom.
Plot did have a borderline Non Con scene in the beginning so please be mindful of that when listening. Found Female POV could drone on about unnecessary details sometimes. No cheating or OW drama.

It took awhile to work out...
I couldn't put my finger on exactly why this book fell short for me until near the end.
There is WAY to much internal dialogue from both characters at critical moments. Right in the middle of sex or during a kidnapping moment it would meander off into a lengthy explanation that made you forget what was actually happening. It made the sex scenes tiresome and boring and what little action there was fall flat.
The other problem was the male narrator didn't pair his voice with the explanation of the emotion Dimitri was supposed to be feeling. He would be speaking in a calm monotone when it says Dimitri was furious, frantic, aroused...it didn't fit. Other than deepening his voice occasionally he didn't really change. The 3 stars for performance is for the female narrator...she was quite good.
As to the story there really isn't one. The beginning was very dub-con and Dimitri was OTT controlling over someone he had barely spoken a complete sentence to or listened to a complete sentence from.
Insta love on steroids from both sides but we had to listen to endless internal dialogue from Emma regarding how hot he was, no he is a criminal, oh he is just too sexy, no he is too controlling, oh I'm too horny to say no, but wait you guessed it she does...play, rewind, repeat.
Again the tired troupe of bad boy meets innocent virgin though the author tried to make it slightly more palatable by making Emma 23yrs old. God only knows how old Dimitri is - I might have slept thru that part 😴

For weeks, I've been watching her. Stalking her. Now, it's time to start playing with my beautiful little pawn. From the moment I first saw her from afar, I knew she would become my prized possession. I will gaslight her into thinking she is my obedient ward, trapped in the Victorian era.

If not, she will pay a painful price.

In my world, a bride can be given...or she can be taken. When Winter O'Brien was given to me, she thought she had a say in the matter. She was wrong. She is my bride. Mine to claim, mine to punish, and mine to use as shamefully as I please. The sting of my belt on her bare bottom will teach her to obey, but obedience is just the beginning. I will demand so much more.

He warned me what would happen if he lost control. I didn't listen. He told me to stay away from him, that if I got too close he would not be able to stop himself. He would pin me down and take me so fiercely my throat would be sore from screaming before he finished wringing one savage, desperate climax after another from my helpless, quivering body. Part of me was terrified, but another part needed to know if he would truly throw me to the ground, mount me, and rut me like a wild animal, longer and harder than any human ever could.

I can still remember the moment I first heard Cyrus Holt's deep, commanding voice. I didn't know who he was or about the life he'd left behind. I was just a trembling orphan on the run from a monster, and he was the man offering me shelter and not giving me a choice about it. This boss of bosses didn't assign someone else to watch over me. He slept on the floor next to my bed when I woke up scared, then spanked me like a naughty little girl when I lied to him.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 29
Being attracted to her isn't wrong…but acting on it would be. As the patriarch of the powerful and wealthy Cavalieri family, my choices come with consequences for everyone around me. The roots of my ancestral, billionaire-dollar winery stretch deep into the rich Italian soil, as does our legacy of ruthlessness and scandal. It isn't the fact she is half my age that makes her off-limits. Nothing is off-limits for me. A wounded bird caught in a trap not of her own making, she poses no risk to me. My obsessive desire to possess her is the real problem—for both of us.

Maximo Giovanni Santaro is a king. A real king, like in the old days. The kind I didn’t know still existed. The kind who commands obedience and punishes any hint of defiance from his subjects. His Majesty doesn’t take no for an answer, and refusing his royal command has earned me not just a spanking that will leave me sobbing, but a lesson so utterly shameful, that it will serve as an example for anyone else who might dare to disobey him.
