About this listen
His family dared to challenge mine, so I am going to ruin them... starting with stealing his bride.
Only a cold-hearted villain would destroy an innocent bride's special day over a business deal gone bad...
Which is why I choose this precise moment to disrupt New York High Society's most anticipated wedding of the season.
As I am Luc Manwarring II, billionaire heir to one of the most powerful families in the country, no one is brave enough to stop me.
My revenge plan is deceptively simple: humiliate the groom, then blackmail the bride's family into coercing the bride into marrying me instead.
My ruthless calculations do not anticipate my reluctant bride having so much fight and fire in her.
At every opportunity, she resists my dominance and control, even going so far as trying to escape my dark plans for her.
She is only supposed to be a means to an end, an unwilling player in my game of revenge.
But the more she challenges me, the more I begin to wonder... who is playing who?
Tearing off the gilded veneer of elite privilege exposes the sordid scandals, dark secrets, and taboo desires of New York's jaded high society in this dark romance series from best friends and USA Today bestselling authors Zoe Blake and Alta Hensley.

Story
When he invited me to join him for a drink, I thought Alessandro was an ordinary guest at my family's hotel. I didn't know I belonged to him until he told me right there in the restaurant. I thought I had a say in the matter. But when I stood up to leave, it just earned me a sore bottom for the plane ride to New York, where our wedding was already planned for the next day. But I was soaking wet for him before he even walked me down the aisle.

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.

Story
He’s evil incarnate, cloaked in a beautiful disguise. My father uprooted our family, forcing me to relocate to America. If that wasn’t bad enough, he’s making me marry the son of a psychopath. Maxim Volkov. Heir to the Volkov Bratva. I’d rather die than be shackled to a man so evil. A man who has no soul. His piercing blue eyes are as cold as his stony heart. And he’s not exactly thrilled, either. My life has never felt so hopeless.

Roman Melnikov is a deadly man in an expensive suit. I know what lies beneath the façade—the scars and tattoos that hint at the man he really is. He came here to find his sister, and his search led him to my dad and his friends. We both want to take them down, and the only way to do that is together. I had no idea how dangerous it would be, or that by the end of it, we'd all be covered in blood. Loving Roman is dangerous, but I can't let him go. His path is leading him straight to hell, and it looks like I'm coming along for the ride.

A wedding is supposed to be the happiest day of a girl's life. For me, it was a nightmare. The man I'm promised to isn't exactly Prince Charming. And the way I ended up on this altar isn't exactly the stuff of fairy tales. You see, my family isn't like yours. My father and brother do... things... that should never see the light of day. Things like wagering me at a poker game to be the wife and baby momma of a dark-eyed devil.

You know the story where the hero comes in and saves the day, rescuing the heroine right in the nick of time? This isn't that story. Instead of a knight in shining armor, he's a sexy, tatted-up Bratva boss with a reputation for being brutal and fierce. Vasily finds me after I've already been brought to my lowest—broken by cruel men until I barely recognize myself. He doesn't offer me salvation. He offers me protection and revenge. And I gladly take it. Because I don't need a knight in shining armor. I need a villain who doesn't mind getting his hands dirty.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Story
Beckett: If you’re reading this, well, you know the last-letter drill. You made it. I didn’t. Get off the guilt train, because I know if there was any chance you could have saved me, you would have. I need one thing from you: get out of the army and get to Telluride. My little sister Ella’s raising the twins alone. She’s too independent and won’t accept help easily, but she has lost our grandmother, our parents, and now me. It’s too much for anyone to endure. And here’s the kicker: there’s something else you don’t know that’s tearing her family apart.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

I’ve slapped my cuffs on Luna Lancaster too many times to count and not a single one was for fun. As the sheriff of Starlight Cove, I shouldn't crave her, but I do. She’s chaos, mayhem, and sunshine wrapped up in too-tight yoga pants. The lawbreaker might have the town enamored with her free spirit, but she’s a thorn in my side, even if she is the sexiest woman I've ever seen. I want her out of my town and out of my head. Trouble is, she's made it perfectly clear she's not going anywhere.

But I was soaking wet for him before he even walked me down the aisle.

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.

We were always told as children that monsters are the things that go bump in the night, but they were wrong. Monsters are often the ones that warm your bed, poison dripping from their teeth and claws, embedding in your skin. I hunt them. I end them. Without hesitation. But…then I hesitated. I stumbled straight into the monster’s den, the biggest and baddest of them all. The king of New York. Roman Antonov. I fell in love with him, and his demons. And I hate him for it.

Just okay
The story was fine. Not my favorite, and a bit on the nose and predictable, but fine overall. I actually really liked Luc and thought he was a strong MMC. He was an alpha and rude and just didn’t care and that’s exactly what I was hoping for when I picked up the book.
Amelia is a little all over the place for me. She was offended by the f word, but then in the same chapter was referring to her lady bits as the p word. ??? She was very conflicting.
I would not recommend getting this audio book though. The MMC was fine to listen to, but the FMC was doing this weird over acting voice the whole time and no one speaks like that. It was weird and breathy and really off putting. I’ve never heard an audio book by her before, and I wouldn’t buy one by her again.
They were speaking so slowly I ended up listening on 3x speed and still understood the whole book.
If I had to do it again, I would just read the physical book.

Well written story with great characters… mostly
Really enjoyed the story. Liked the characters… well most of them. The mother could…. Sigh… I have to be nice or my review won’t post. But she deserves whatever happens to her.. always!
The narrators were new to me and I’ll have to hear them again to form a better opinion. These authors are separately excellent and also together!

This book is a great start to a new series. It is spicy, interesting, and delicious to listen to. I cannot wait for the next to be available on Audible! I love Zoe Blake and though Alta Hensley is new to me, I’ll be downloading her books too.

Mine… oh my ❤️🔥❤️
These two authors give the story a different twist, it’s a combination of naughty and nice. I wish the storyline would have been developed a bit more since it has potential. There are a couple of characters that you will love to hate… that’s an understatement!!! The love scenes are very steamy, and if you love an alpha male that is possessive, but knows how to love and take care of his woman,.. than this novel is for you. The male narrator has a deep voice that brings you to your knees especially in chapter 24. The female narrator is great as well. Both of them bring the characters to life. The one thing that could have made this novel better would have been a Duet Narration… where each character only narrates their character from start to finish.

Everything was about power and its expression thru sexual dominance. Pretty sickening. Narration was whining and self aggrandizing. Terrible!
