Summary

Dante

My life is a tale of betrayal. I killed so many because they betrayed our cause, because they betrayed the Outfit. A hypocrite. A liar. A murderer. That’s what I am.

Five times I betrayed the Outfit. With my blood I made a vow to our cause, swore my life to it, promised to put the Outfit first. Above all else. Five times I chose a woman over the good of the Outfit. I betrayed my father. My vow. My men. You reap what you sow. Would my betrayals destroy everything I swore to protect?

Valentina

On our wedding day, I made a vow to stand by Dante’s side. In good and in bad times. To love him through it all.

Growing up in the mafia, I knew the challenges in our life would be numerous. I never expected them to tear at the very base of our family, of our existence.

Great steamy Mafia love story!

Loved both the narrators who bought the story alive especially Connor’s smooth tones; he encapsulated Dante’s controlled heated emotions.

Stuck

Great narrators deliver a very middling tale with gusto. At almost 12 hrs long I was looking forward to a feast, but half way through I am stuck. Uninspired by the first half, I don't want to face the disappointed of another 6 hours of the same. Will I make it to the end? It's taken me over a week to decide on how to word my review.

Average would be a positive word for the drama, the action, the characterizations and dialogue. It's like a poorly cooked meal at a top restaurant, you expected so much better than cold unremarkable fare.

Recently had Canary by Tijan and Revenge by Meagan Pearce who really take the Mafia genre to the next level. These books are perfectly narrated, are thrilling, have smart MCs in clever intricate plots. So enjoyable.

I wanted this story to be good as Connor Crais is now my favourite Audible narrator since Christian Fox left.

SO DISAPPOINTING DNF RETURNED
