Publisher's summary

L. A. Cotton's angsty college mafia romance series, Verona Legacy, continues with Enzo Marchetti's story...

Nora Abato is the kind of girl people gravitate to.

Sassy. Selfless. Stubborn.

She knows what she wants and she’s determined to get it. And Nora wants her very own mafioso, the bad boy with a tortured soul who will do whatever it takes to protect his family.

Enzo Marchetti is the kind of guy people run from.

Rash. Reckless. Ruined.

As the Marchetti crime family's new enforcer, he’d rather spend his days getting his hands dirty than thinking about the future, or the girl with fire in her eyes and fight in her heart.

When a new enemy threatens the Marchetti empire, Enzo and Nora suddenly find themselves in close confines, and the undeniable connection between them is pushed to its limits. He can’t resist the girl who sees past the darkness in his soul and she can’t give up on the guy who has never been taught how to love.

There’s only one problem.

Enzo isn’t Nora’s fairytale prince, he’s the villain who will destroy her dream of a happily-ever-after.

He'll break her...

If she doesn't break him first.

Note: Due to mature content that some listeners may find distressing, this audiobook is recommended for listeners 18+

Enzo owns me, love this series!

Enzo owns me! I was so excited to finally get Enzo's story, he intrigued me from the beginning, such a broken and mysterious guy, and all I can say is I love him! Nora was just the perfect woman for him, but their story wasn't an easy one, it's full of angst, it threw me on a roller-coaster I didn't see coming, I didn't expect such a toxic relationship to work out. My emotions were all over the place, but I couldn't stop reading. The next one is Matteo and I can't wait for it. This is a terrific 5-star read, please make sure you read the whole series, you will love them all. Alan Carlson and Sarah Puckett were spot-on as always, with fantastic voices portraying their characters, the editing and production was well done.

Verona Legacy

Villain of Secrets: A Mafia Romance Standalone (Verona Legacy Book 3) is a angsty new adult novel intertwined with the dangers of a mafia world. Enzo and Nora lovestory is dark, and intense with explosive chemistry. The writing style is captivating and the characters are compelling. Secrets revealed in layers, unexpected twists intricately weaved and dark moments dredged within the pages of this intriguing read. I'm on pins and needles waiting to listen tp the next book in this unforgettable series. I love Mateo and I'm so excited for his story as we got a taste at the end of this one.

Alan Carlson, Sarah Puckett dual narration performance brought the characters and their story to reality. Sarah Puckett is a favourite of mine and never disappoints. Her inflection is sweet and spicy fun.

Getting tired of the damaged guy and nice girl trope

I guess I just get tired of the nice girl who is repeatedly treated like crap and betrayed by a guy who she “loves” because he’s a damaged soul…. but she’ll fix him with her love….Blah blah blah. She likes having sex with him. Cool. Not love. I actually wanted her to end up with Lucas or even Matteo.
