About this listen

Cameron didn’t realize how much he loved his grandparents’ bakery until Angelo Marchesi, a man he’s hated since high school, threatened to take it away.

But Cameron owes Angelo a debt.

A debt he can’t pay...

Unless he accepts Angelo’s indecent proposal and risks finding out how thin the line between love and hate really is.

okay, brothers can be similar and Angel and Lucien have very similar"tastes" but a few chapters in those similarities shift and the many layers to Angelo begin to be unveiled. I will admit I questioned the dubious concent early on and the unique "arrangement" Angel makes with Cam but really this is a second chance/highschool crush to lovers story with a wicked and sexy bad boy with a good heart and at its core is a (extremely) passionate lust to forever love story. Mobsters deserve love too 😉

A thoughly enjoyable read and I'm just itching for Devil's story...

Sizzling!

Both the main characters in this book are fighting desperately not to acknowledge or act on their true selves. Angelo has to always appear tough and untouchable within the family or risk losing his power, position and possibly his life and Cameron has to resist his long standing feelings for Angelo that could cost him everything he and his family have built. Watching these two work toward a loving relationship through all the stuff going on around and inside them is sad, angsty and hot as everything. A great tale on the hate/love, enemies/lovers trope. Michael Dean's performance was spot on. The accents were well done, the characters were all clearly differentiated and most importantly, the emotional beats were all hit with just the right amount of angst to be believable and not over the top.

Another great entry in the series

Angelo is book 2 in the Marchesi Family series and I guess it could be read as a standalone. We get enough background information that you don't need to read Lucien, although I suggest you read it for maximum enjoyment. 

I loved Angelo. I don't care if he was a mobster and as such did questionable things, he was also loyal, protective, caring, and sweet, even if the way he went about things with Cameron skirted the dubcon line. Cameron, on the other hand, I wanted to kick more than a few times. He was just so stubborn and difficult and I was so frustrated with him. He was so judgmental about Angelo's family from when they were in high school and I, for one, was happy when he realized he'd placed the blame on the wrong party, and even if Angelo could let go of that, I found it difficult to do so myself. What can I say? I hold grudges. LOL Frankly speaking, while I could appreciate how hot Cameron and Angelo were together, I never really thought Cameron deserved Angelo. *shrugs* 

Michael Dean did a great job with both the main characters and the supporting cast. And the book was entertaining, even if I felt the secondary storyline and very hot, so there's that. I can't wait for Devil's book, though. 

Entertaining...

Angelo is the second book in The Marchesi Family series, and can easily be read as a standalone, although I found it much more fun reading it directly after Lucien, the first book in the series.

Angelo, or Angel as everyone calls him, is brother of the The Marchesi Family head and one of the most trusted enforcers. Angel knows how to get a job done, and he isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty. When his high school crush comes back to Boston, Angel immediately knows what he has to do: make Cameron his. High school had been a tough time for both Angel and Cam, but now Angel finally has a second chance. Cam moved back to Boston after his father was murdered and left the family bakery to him. Although his childhood had been less than desirable, Cam still has fond memories of his loving grandparents and the bakery they devoted their lives to. Unfortunately, Cam’s no-good, dead father messed up the financial standing of the bakery and now Cam finds himself in debt to the one person he can’t stand: Angel. It’s a rocky start, but soon these two men realize how perfect they are for each other.

I loved this book. Angel and Cameron’s relationship was intense and full of fire – Angel demanded and Cameron pushed back, both of them loving the fight and Cam’s eventual submission. But even with all that friction in their sex lives, their relationship had it’s sweet and tender moments as the two men fell in love with each other. There was a lot of action and drama in this book, and Silvia Violet did not flinch away from mafia-level violence. These men are in the mob and dangerous, deadly things happen in that world.

Michael Dean narrated the audiobook and did a spectacular job. The voices for the characters were perfect and consistent, and I had no trouble differentiating who was speaking. Michael put so much energy into his voice during the sex and action scenes. I was either on the edge of my seat, or fanning myself from hot the performance was. I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook and definitely recommend it.

Silvia Violet created a great series. Some very interesting characters. Michael Dean had the right voice for the characters. Book can stand on its own and in my opinion even better that the first.
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
