About this listen
Drowning in the murky waters of the mafia, I’m determined to find a way out.
I have my sights set on becoming a film producer and won’t let anything or anyone stand in my way. Then my mother marries a retired Godfather, and I get the head of the Greek mafia as a stepbrother.
Nikolas Stathoulis is set on ruining my well-laid plans. His ruthless reputation has me running for the safety of my apartment.
But he’s always there. On campus. In my apartment. Expecting me to play by his rules. If only I can ignore his godlike features and stop my heart from doing cartwheels at the sight of him.
Greek God? Pretty much.
But he’s rude, demanding, and hell-bent on making my life a misery.
Two can play this game…right?
From USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Michelle Heard comes a standalone Greek mafia romance.
This book is intended for mature listeners.

Otherwise I liked the twists of the maffia world building. Usually there’s torture and maiming in seedy abandoned factories or some such, but here you see it in broad daylight light on the sixth floor of an office building. I liked that take on things.
Good narration too but I recommend not googling your narrators. It’s strange how much it can ruin a book cos instead of the character they work so hard at portraying you see the person behind the narration. I read that someone else had done it and it ruined it for them too but I didn’t take heed. I just had to go and do it myself too. So here I am trying to warn the next guy but probably just ending up doing the same thing to some other poor soul, waking the curiosity and ruining their listening experience by dangling the bait. Don’t let it be you. 😅😅
An ok book

Well, what can I say but that I was totally underwhelmed and, as usual don't understand the 5 * reviews!
Personally, I haven't heard of Greek mafia based in Vancouver and step-siblings allowed to marry in the Greek Orthodox Church, both issues being very doubtful.
The story started off really well. I liked Nikolaus but I do wish authors would delve more into the mafia world if this is what they are writing about, and not only concentrate on the romance.
So far as Tess was concerned, I wanted to know more of her childhood and how her mother met Nikolaus' dad and why he was now the mafia boss.
The romance was good and the tiny bits of drama were fun but not intense. I kept thinking something is about to happen and it didn't 🤔
I suppose this is what happens when you put down an excellently researched book and then pick one up which is simply mediocre.
I won't be continuing with the series and definitely wouldn't recommend it.
Pity.
The narration was good, however, by #KelseyNavarro (although she sounded much older than 21) and #JamesAndersonFoster, who is new to me, was excellent as Nikolaus.
Underwhelmed!
