    About this audiobook

    She’s a romantic at heart, living in the most unromantic of worlds ...

    Nicknamed Sweet Abelli for her docile nature, Elena smiles on cue and has a charming response for everything. She’s the favored daughter, the perfect mafia principessa ... or was.

    In the murky waters of New York’s underworld, Elena’s sister is arranged to marry Nicolas Russo. A Made Man, a boss, a cheat—even measured against mafia standards. His reputation is darker than his black suits and ties.

    After Elena’s first encounter with Nicholas, she realizes he’s just as rude as he is handsome. She doesn’t like the man or anything he stands for, though that doesn’t stop her heart from pattering like rain against glass when he’s near, nor the shiver that goes down her spine at the sound of his voice.

    And he’s always near. Telling her what to do. Making her feel hotter than any future brother-in-law should. Elena may be the Sweet Abelli on the outside, but she’s beginning to learn she has a taste for the darkness, for rough hands, cigarettes, and whiskey-colored eyes. Having already escaped one scandal, however, she can hardly afford to be swept up in another.

    Besides, even if he were hers, everyone knows you don’t fall in love with a Made Man ... right?

    • 5/5
      One of the best Mafia books I've read, I loved it so much.
    • 5/5
      Spicy and I loved it can’t wait for the next one!
    • 5/5
      It was a perfect story. I loved every plot and twist of it. Kid me not, I love anything Italian mafia
    • 2/5
      I wish if the narrators did the mmc and the fmc by their sounds
    • 5/5
      I am so in love with these characters. I can not wait to read the next book in this series
    • 1/5
      The female voice omg I can't. Where can I read the book instead ?
    • 5/5
      Sweet, spicy and and everything costra nova. Can't help falling in love with bad boys! Another Niko for me to love. Not your typical Mafia romance, it's not gore nor does it have the 3rd act break up special these books tend to have. 10/10 for the story and plot although it was hard at first to look past the Narrators. The need to speak in different accents was unnecessary and almost made me skip this book. Book is amazing thou!
    • 5/5
      It is based in Ny and about crime families. Original the main character’s was promised to Nicholas. Her sister falls and love with another man. Her sister becomes pregnant by this other man. Since Her father cannot have the main character’s sister married of to Nicholas now, she is on the chopping block to be married off. If you love beauty and beast, this book is a modern twist.
    • 5/5
      As a feminist I’m so embarrassed by how much I loved this misogynistic book ? love a good spicy romance!
    • 5/5
      I absolutely adore this book. I cannot recall how many times I have read/listened to it. The banter between the FMC and the MMC is so angsty.
    • 5/5
      Loved the story line and different play on enemies to lovers!
    • 1/5
      Misogyny, but make it sexy?? I wanna go back in time and stop the author from learning how to read and write?

      Loved the book. Just struggled with the narrators over exaggeration of “ Nonna” and “Momma” each time she said it.
    • 3/5
      Couldn’t get past the first chapter, the narrator’s accent was too much.

    • 3/5
      Narration was trying.... story was great, keep me entertained, that's the only reason I finished the book.
    • 3/5
      The accent from the narrator is so over the top… makes the book sound super cheesy
    • 5/5
      Good storyline. Not a fan of the italian accent on the female narrator but I enjoyed the storyline.
