Publisher's summary

Four of them. One of me. Who will give in first?

It started when they stole me from my life. The daughter of a crime lord who ruled with an iron fist. The heir to a family of blood and ruin.

They left only a whisper of a name in the air. Il Diavolo. A man whose reputation preceded him. Ruthless. Merciless. Cunning.

The one they called the Devil. He was as beautiful as he was terrifying. Except I wasn't scared of him or his three friends. They might want to use me in their quest for revenge, but they picked the wrong girl. Or maybe I was the right one and none of us knew it quite yet.

Our connection is undeniable. Our fates are entwined. But loyalty and lies keep us all locked in a battle of wills and denial.

There's only one thing I know for certain in this fight between the five of us. Secrets always catch up with you in the end. And my secrets were the worst ones of all.
A dark why choose romance series set in Sarah Bailey's Dark Universe with cliffhangers and a HEA in the final book.

This is a
DARK romance and therefore comes with a content warning. Please see author's website for full details.

Finally! A real RH series worth following

I prefer male narrators overall so when I find RH titles where it's mostly performed by the female...it doesn't quite turn me away but it isn't ideal. When performed in duet style that is considerably much better - but it kind of defeats the purpose when it's from only 1 POV. This was definitely not the case here!

Robert Bishop is new to me and he blew me away with his 1 man performance of multiple characters - So easy that most of the time I could tell who was speaking without getting the name: with Quinn he sounded very commanding; sometimes with a sexy drawl...with Xav he sounded more angry and at times protective...with Eric he sounded nurturing. As for his performance of Rory...it was quieter; a bit vulnerable... but there is a hint of something waiting to be unleashed (you know that saying? The quiet ones you gotta watch). There weren't many sex scenes and so far Ash has only hooked up with Quinn (because he is OTT possessive) but the sexual tension with the other guys is off the chart!. I can't wait for the next book because I want to explore every one of the guys better. And find out what happens of course!

This is only the first book but wow it has many other RH (that I've listened to or read beat) I see many reviews that said they couldn't tell who was who or there wasn't enough of a distinguish between the characters - which is a shame because if you don't get to know the characters how can you care what's going on? What's the point of continuing? This is the job of a talented writer...I am definitely happy I found Sarah Bailey.

5 starz - I would listen again

Sigh… where’s my reverse harem?

I adored this reverse harem mafia romance. It’s fast moving, dangerous, and sexy… what more could you want?

I generally prefer dual narrated books but I was surprised to find Robert Bishop hooked me completely.

I loved the Quintet

I loved this mafia, captive, reverse harem story from Sarah Bailey. The narrator did an amazing job bringing all the characters to life and I seriously want wait to move on to book 2!
