She’s the mayor-to-be’s perfect daughter. He’s the ruthless villain set to ruin her.

I’ve spent my life putting others first. So when my father runs for New York City mayor—on a promise to take down the city’s most notorious crime family—I do what I always do: push my own dreams aside to help him win.

Until I wind up at the wrong party. Trapped in a bedroom with Romolo Ferraro—the dangerous, merciless youngest son of the man my father has sworn to destroy.

He terrifies me. He fascinates me. Six foot four and covered in tattoos, he’s everything I should avoid.

When he starts pursuing me, I know I’m just a pawn in his game. A means to an end. And yet… part of me wants to play along.

I tell myself it’s to protect my father’s campaign. But I’m not thinking about politics when Romolo’s rough hands slide over my skin, teaching me how good it feels to burn.

They say good girls don’t fall for the villain.

But maybe, I’m tired of being good.

Be With Me is book 1 in House of Ferraro, a series of interconnected standalones following the Ferraro brothers, where dark and sensual romance plays out against a backdrop of family secrets and mafia intrigue.

Firstly, I would like to thank the author, Gabrielle Sands, and her lovely assistant, Marian, for a copy of the audiobook!!

This year, I have been really getting into listening to audiobooks and this was EVERYTHING!! It has been a dream to hear the characters, Mia and Romolo, being brought to life! I thought the narrators, Vanessa Vasquez and Gabriel Spires, did an exceptional job!! Especially at my favourite part when Mia and Rom first meet and Rom's speech near the end!

Mia Morales is a 25 year old personal stylist, who enjoys bedazzling and taking care of everyone. She is very creative and the best at what she does. She is the daughter of the mayor-to-be, Carlos Morales, who has a mission that he is determined to see through. Mia is really relatable as she wants to keep the peace and does not want any conflict. Enter Romolo.

Romolo Ferraro is the youngest of three sons. His father is Gino Ferraro who is the Mafia don. He has been through a lot and doesn't believe he is capable of loving or being loved. I love the little things he does that show he cares like how he steals Mia's lip gloss and refuses to let his brother throw it away!! He is completely infatuated with Mia!!

Overall, I absolutely love the audiobook! I love the way they met. The build up. Everything. I love everything about this book, with the exception of a few characters. This had me giggling and kicking my feet in the air! It was like reading it for the first time all over again!! Be With Me was by far my favourite read of 2025 and has become my favourite read of 2026, too! I cannot recommend this book enough! Anyone who knows me knows I haven't stopped talking about Be With Me! I am really looking forward to reading the sequel and finding out what Gabrielle has in store for Cosimo and Fabi!

The voice of the male narrator is one of the best matches I’ve heard, especially in the spicy scenes and where he’s whispering to her or intimidating the males around Mia. The plot is great and there’s no mess up in the timeline.
Great job ❤️

Story and voice

Good story, with a hint of Romeo and Juliet. Families who hate each other, but the couple fell in love although their initial intentions were quite different . Well written, and really nicely done the recording. The actors give the story life. It was hot!

That’s a great book!
