Özet

Serve the Family at all costs. That’s my purpose in life. No one asked me if I wanted it. Now there’s no way out.

And there’s definitely no place for Jake, a do-gooder military vet who sticks his nose in where it doesn’t belong.

He thinks he saw darkness in the Army? He hasn’t looked at the depths inside me. He’d run screaming if he knew. But he’s made something in our crumbling neighborhood I thought couldn’t exist. Something I want to be a part of. Just like I want him. But I have to walk away. No one betrays the Family and lives.

Knight in the Shadows is a full length m/m mafia romance featuring a wounded army vet trying to make the best of his neighborhood and the mafia enforcer with a dark past who never expected to fall in love!

I’m not a huge mafia fan but I’ve enjoyed Ali Lyda’s Get Ink’d series, so I figured I would give this one I try. I did enjoy it.

Jake is an injured warrior. He lost his guys in an IED attack - as well as his leg - and he suffers from physical and emotional pain. He’s come back to The Elm to take over his uncle’s gym to teach. He’s even got a kid’s program where the kids learn math, English, and boxing. He’s got a good set-up going but when one of his guys goes missing, his search for the man brings him into contact with Max Russo, a ‘good’ mob boss.

Mafia books are always ambiguous at best with violence sprinkled in and questionable men eventually taking the high road and changing their ways. Except does Max really change all that much? Like I said, morally ambiguous. Although when push comes to shove, he does in at least one case, choose the less violent route.

Mike Peterman narrated the book and I have to say his voice is perfect for the rough and tumble guys who make up this crew, and I have the second book cued up.

The Dark Side

I really enjoyed this book and like the take on a Mafia Romance. Mafia with a heart of gold, sort of...
I loved the dynamics of a dark mafioso who wants to be better and a damaged war hero with a sunny personality. I feel these two played off each other well and acknowledged their differences and the "ethical" dilemmas of them dating rather than being blinded by lust. That being said their connection and lust was steamy AF and I loved their give and take.

The story builds intrigue and hints at some things here and there. They don't ride off into the sunset but they do work towards an HFN ending. There is, of course, the mini "fall out" but thankfully everyone sees the error of their ways quite quickly and comes back together. I really enjoyed the energy and layout of the story and The Elm and look forward to more stories for The Elm and these characters. I can't wait for the next book!

Great narration, character voices, and dialects! I could feel the difference in the characters, their emotions, and their motivations. I really liked this narrator and look forward to more from him!!

A Brilliant series opener.

Jake had returned to the Elms and the gym that his uncle had left him after being discharged from the armed forces after losing part of his leg while deployed. The local Mafia family the Russo's are causing issues but he's determined to fight to save his gym. Max has been sent by his stepfather the head of the Russo's to find out whats going on in the Elms and deal with it. Jake and Max are attracted to each other but its not safe for them to get involved..Powerful story that keeps you guessing what's going on? and who's behind it all ? Mike Peterman gave the characters their voices fantastically. loved this story.

Ali Lyda is one of my favorite authors so any of her books is a must have for me. This collaboration with Alexa May is captivating and kept me at the edge of my seat the whole time. The characters are intense and complex, with a lot of difficult emotional dialogues, full of heartfelt meaning and some angst. This book started a new series and I cannot wait to read what is next. Now this is the first book I have ever heard narrated by Mr Peterman and his voice acting, charism and general performance were truly enjoyable. A wonderful narration!!

Wonderful narration!
