About this listen

A new stand-alone dark mafia romance from USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author, Siobhan Davis™.

Natalia Mazzone has grown up knowing she is promised to a made man. As the only daughter of one of New York’s most powerful mafia dons, she knows she can’t refuse. It’s her duty, and she would never dishonor her beloved father.

But the man she’s promised to is a monster. And there is nothing but torture, pain, and heartache lying in wait.

So, she grabs happiness when she finds it - in the somewhat reluctant arms of Leonardo Messina.

Leo is her brother’s best friend. A soldato for the Mazzone famiglia. A man with strong ambition and an even stronger resolve. He won’t allow them to give in to temptation, so Natalia is forced to love him from afar.

Until one forbidden night changes everything, and she readily hands Leo the key to her heart.

Leo risked everything for the one woman he can never have. He doesn’t regret it. It saved Natalia from a life of hell, but his actions set her on a different course.

One that doesn’t involve him.

Years have passed, and his feelings remain the same. Yet he keeps his distance, dedicating himself to his new role as underboss to Bennett Mazzone, while the love of his life is married to another man.

Until a twist of fate puts Natalia in his path again, and this time, he is powerless to resist.

This is a full-length stand-alone novel with no cliff-hanger and an HEA. For listeners who enjoy brother's best friend, second chance, dark mafia, forbidden romance.

However, their love is forbidden and dangerous; therefore, they are destined to love from a far. This is an epic love story that almost melted my Beats at times. Siobhan Davis was born to write mafia romance! I can never get enough of this story! Storytelling at its finest! The narration was just great. Both narrators gave an exceptional performance.

Sizzling suspense!

Natalia and Leo are everything. They have loved each other forever, but when your the daughter of a mob boss you don't get to love. Every move is like a chess board, made with skill and motive. She must do what's best for her family not herself. This book had me on the edge of my seat so many times. There is so much action. So many times I was afraid for Natalia, but she's a fighter and doesn't give up. I love how she makes the best of her situation, but still holding out hope that somehow her and Leo will be together. Leo is such a good man. He's hot and will do whatever it takes to be with Natalia. He will make you swoon. This is an amazing story by an amazing writer.

Michael Gallagher and Sarah Puckett do an amazing job narrating. They are really great at the voices and keeping you listening.

Absolutely Perfect Book!

As mafia romances go, Forbidden to Love was simply magnificent. Siobhan Davis is an absolute talent; she captures the very heart of the underground world and the characters existing within it. Mazzone Mafia is an addictive series, and Forbidden to Love is a phenomenal second book. The storyline is rich, edgy, thrilling, suspenseful, action-packed, and unpredictable, wrapped in intrigue, passion, and sensuality. The character development is sophisticated. The best way to describe the MCs, Leo and Natalia, is captivating; the complexity of their personalities, strength, vulnerabilities, and emotions they experienced was wholly authentic and compelling.

Their connection felt natural, intense, and magnetic, driven by smouldering desire, devotion, and passion. It was impossible not to get caught up in the dilemmas, angst, tough choices, and drama of the mafia culture and expectations. I was completely pulled into their journey, getting hit by one unforeseen twist after another, feeling the intensity, fear, anger, rush, and heartbreak. I was thoroughly immersed and invested from start to end.

Flawless performances by Michael Gallagher and Sarah Puckett. I felt and imagined every scene as though I was there, watching it all happen. Gallagher and Puckett are masterful narrators, and it was a pleasure listening to them bringing Davis's words to life. The Forbidden to Love was an incredibly satisfying listen, one I'm highly recommending. It was so worth the listen.

Natalia is the daughter of a very powerful mafia don, and her life is determined for her, and she has no power and is at the mercy of the men in her life. For most of her life she has loved her brother's best friend, but she has never acted on it because the consequences would be disastrous. Natalia and Leo eventually have their moment, though short-lived, and Natalia goes on to marry as planned, and everyone lives on, carrying on mafia traditions, but miserable.

Forbidden to Love hooked me from the start like so many of this author's stories do. It was heartbreaking, angsty and gut-wrenching, and full of so much drama and action until it came full circle at which point the world was righted and happily ever afters were made possible, and my heart was healed...mostly.

I absolutely loved how much Leo and Natalia loved each other and my heart broke for all of their missed time and all the hurts they suffered due to their circumstances. I was so engrossed in this story from beginning to end with constantly trying to figure out exactly what was going to happen and where the story was going to lead. Siobhan Davis is a master story creator, and I always know I am going to be wowed when I dive into one of her books, and Forbidden to Love was no exception.

Michael Gallagher and Sarah Puckett did a truly fantastic job with the narration of this story. They really put their all into this so that all the emotions of this story line came through in their narration. I would highly, highly recommend them both and I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future as well as reading more from this author.

Intense, Angsty and Emotional...LOVED It!!!!

A second chance romance done mafia style. This book was a whole journey. Natalia and Leo had this intense romance that had so many highs and lows, so much danger and passion, and so much love that getting to a place where they could truly be together, openly and for all to see, really was a journey. But I enjoyed it. Leo was so loyal to the Mazzone family, and it wasn’t just because of his love for Natalia. I enjoyed the chapters from his POV for the insight into what he was thinking, and it really showed me what kind of man he was. It made it even more satisfying in the end to see two good people in a dark and dangerous world find happiness. Another thing I truly appreciated was the way even though this book was set in the same world as Condemned to Love, and those characters were featured here, it overall felt so different. And I’m excited to see what’s going to come next in this world.
Narration on this one was done by two great performers. I just felt like they were both good fits for the story and not only had varied tones for the different characters but also just brought good emotion when needed. For example, Natalia is a character that went through a lot of emotional moments throughout the book, and I thought Sarah Puckett showed that in her performance exactly right. I wouldn’t hesitate to listen to either of these narrators again in future.
