Publisher's summary

Claudius

My story started out with a guy who liked a girl. She looked like an angel to him. I was the guy, Ava the angel. But...my life turned into this world where I got married to her twin sister and Ava hated me. Then, I got caught in a game with the devil I didn't want to play. My enemies used my weaknesses against me, and killed my wife. Ava could have died, too, so I stayed away.

The universe, however, had other ideas and threw her right back in my path.

An angel like her didn't belong in the dark world of a Mafia boss.

I know that, except, I'm selfish. I should leave her alone, but I can't.

Ava

Ten years ago, when I first met Claudius, I knew he was trouble. He'd made me love's fool and broke my heart in so many ways when he married my sister. So, what was I doing running back into the arms of a man I shouldn't be with?

Coincidence reunited us, but my heart did the rest. My heart stifled the voice inside that told me to run away. My heart made me selfish...I wanted him for myself.

I knew I shouldn't be with him, but I couldn't leave him alone. That very thing could be my downfall.

Contains mature themes.

Marissa made me so mad

Beware: the plot of the story is exposed here. The power that Marissa had in the lives of so many (alive and dead) made me sick; she had no redeeming quality, and while the author was probably trying to humanize the “mob boss” with facial tattoos, it only made him look like more of an asshole. I’m supposed to believe that he was going to stay with a conniving sister and not the twin he loved when the sole purpose of their union was gone? Claudius tried to act like a tough motorcycle guy, but the truth was, he lacked self awareness. IMO - the only one I felt sorry for was Ava; For both sticking by her sister and forgiving Claudius.

Mild mafia story.

Nice story but a bit on the tame side for drama and sex for a mafia story. I still recommend if you're not into dom and sub type mafia stories.

FIVE STARS X 2

I absolutely loved this story. I love the flashbacks. I loved and hated each character that was to be loved or hated. I only wish Ava would’ve been able to properly confront Marissa. I should be satisfied that she is dead. But I wanted more.

Unforgivable Love

Claudis’ actions were unforgivable and never redeemed himself. He said he loved and wanted to marry Ava but he married her twin and was going to have a family. He spoke about his love for the FMC’s sister. Ava’s twin was devious, a liar. and her actions were cruel causing so much pain and heartache to Ava.
The MMC was stubborn, immature and alcohol doesn’t excuse you for indiscretions. I felt for the FMC she had to lived with the heartache of her sister
being married to the person she loved but she was weak and accepted everything. He broke her heart. I’m sorry but the MMC married her sister and that is something you cannot excuse. No redemption! I

Infuriating!!😡

The story was good but I had a few issues
The betrayal between the sisters. The silence of the parents when Marisa got with Claudius. The fact that Claudius didn’t step up and tell Ava what was going on.
I had a hard time with Ava having to be the bigger person. I hated most when Claudius talked about loving Marisa 🤬

Narrator…

Worst women narrator I ever heard… I don’t know if she wants to make her voice sexy or what her issue is…

Claudius and Ava

An adrenaline-charged, twisted and darkly suspenseful romance. Claudius and Ava embark on a road filled with secrets, betrayal and so many twist and turns that you feel like the insanity will never end. I enjoyed every single second of this story.

Lame narrators and plot.

After listening to the Accidental Mafia Queen series, this book was disappointing. I’m glad I didn’t pay for it!
