About this listen
Top 100 international Amazon best seller
From Cora Kenborn and Catherine Wiltcher comes Corrupt Gods, a brand-new arranged-marriage mafia duet.
A Santiago is a lesson in ruin.
A Carrera bleeds for revenge.
Thalia Santiago is the daughter of my enemy. A beautiful rebel with a single cause. Impulsive. Fearless. And ripe for her father's undoing.
I recognized her the moment she stepped into my casino. I watched her start the fires that burned her pretty fingers, and then I poured gasoline on the flames. Now she's in my debt, and her dues are a shiny gold ring and a vow of deception.
I'll bend her. I'll break her. I'll turn our mockery of a marriage into a battlefield. And that river of bad blood that flows between our two families? I'll make it an ocean of hate.
This is book one of a new dark romance duet. Tainted Blood, book two, is now live.
Bad Blood is set in the Santiago and Carrera worlds, but it is not necessary to have listened to either trilogy beforehand.

Story
All I knew about life was anger and violence. Pain and suffering. Kill or be killed. I was a “fixer” for the Ruin - a syndicate for the Bratva, Cosa Nostra, Cartel, and any other organized crime faction that dealt in the darker, crueler aspects of humanity. I was a free agent who was called upon to do things weaker men didn’t have the stomach for. And when you surround yourself with death for long enough, soon you don’t remember what it felt like to be alive. And then I saw her.

But the mafia wants her secrets. I'm not the first she betrayed. And Issa? Sweet, not-so-innocent Issa? She's now a debt no sinner can pay.

Wearing the mask of legitimacy, this powerful crime family has returned to Avarice to punish those who have wronged them and take what they’ve always been denied, a place among the elite.

I never wanted a wife. No one is safe with me. No one is good enough for my daughter. But if I want to rule over the wealthiest crime family in New York City, I only have two weeks to find one. When Elsie broke into my home, I saw an opportunity, so I forced her into a marriage she didn't want. No one crosses me, not even someone as beautiful as Elsie. She may fight me with that smart mouth, but she will obey me–or return to the hell she came from. I told her she was mine for a year. Then she'd be free.

The second our eyes connected, I felt the shift in the air. The crackle of fire igniting between us. He was dark, dangerous, and secretive. He came into my life like a storm, ripping apart everything I believed in, everything I thought I knew. With his mischievous smirk, stunning looks, and alluring behavior, I should’ve ran as far away from him as I could. But I was stupid. I trapped myself in his web.

I'm a black suit of spades: determined to bury both her and my demons. I never asked to see the shape of her heart. I never asked for her to fill the blank spaces of mine.

Story
Monsters don't hide in dark alleys. They lurk in plain sight, clawing into your soul with cordial smiles. They wear Armani, they drive Cadillacs, they attend fundraising balls... And they rule the city with a merciless fist. The Familia is a mystery to most, and sitting on its throne is Kage Malvagio. Vile. Sadistic. Painstakingly beautiful. Some say: Ask for forgiveness, never permission. Kage asks for neither—especially when he gets his hands on me. I should hate him. I should run at the first chance I get. But how could the devil be so bad when he looks at me like that?

Story
It's the dog's fault, really. If this untrained Great Dane I'm walking had any manners at all, I never would've ended up here: With my leash wrapped around the most gorgeous man I've ever seen. Lucky for me, the guy is a good sport about it. (Although his joke that “Dogs take after their owners” hits a little too close to home when Rufus starts humping his leg.) He leaves me with his business card and a smile that makes my knees weak.

I did enjoy this dual POV story but it was way more friction-filled enemies than passionate lovers as Santi played his pawn Thalia well knowing she’d do anything to save the reputation of her sister. Which is the blackmail start that got her desperately crossing the line into his Casino.. but she didn’t bargain on getting caught. Now Thalia is a Prince’s pawn however, neither realize she isn’t the only piece on the board.. so, as family and ruling Kings come to voice their suspicions and trigger point, they leave gaps in their defences and the resulting suspense and danger in the Epilogue is the chilling cliffhanger ending.
Worth a credit? Yes, despite the hero and heroine only being 22 and 17, I’ll definitely get book 2 which (hopefully) will have much more spark and sizzle along with the drama. And I really enjoyed Aaron’s great narration which was perfect for alpha Santi but (for me) Stephanie’s male voice was just ok.
AN ENJOYABLE ENEMIES-to-ENEMIES SLOW-BURN

🎧📚🎧 And for the amazing narration, Aaron Shedlock and Stephanie Nemeth Parker were the perfect cast to bring these characters and their story to life. They had a complete understanding of the characters they portrayed, gave each a voice that fit their character’s persona to a tee, accent and all, sounding believable in every role they played and just as I pictured the characters to sound. Aaron Shedlock nailed it as a badass, alpha, cartel boss, enhancing some of the intense moments to another level. Stephanie Nemeth Parker’s Thalia was badass too, showing both her fierceness and caring side. These two mega talented voice artists are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another exceptional listen.
Resubmitting the review for the third time on 11/30 the review was first submitted 11/16 and it still has not posted, Audible please post it thank you.

I've listened to Aaron Shedlock many times before, but this was my first time listening to Stephanie Nemeth Parker! I was so glad these two were narrating this book! I was pulled in from the get go by Aaron and Stephanie's narration. I loved what they brought to the story as Santi and Thalia! They brought the story to life in this new way. They captured these characters, the suspense, hate, and spice in such wonderful ways. I can't wait to listen to more of Aaron and Stephanie in the future!
This first book in Thalia and Santi's journey captured my attention! Theirs is far from an easy story. Thalia and Santi's families are enemies. As they're brought together at Santi's casino, nothing will ever be the same.
Once again, these characters and their story kept me on the edge of my seat! I loved how i felt many emotions throughout this listen. From the way they got under each other's skin to the heat between them, i was so into this listen!
With Bad Blood, Ms.Kenborn and Ms.Wiltcher have created such a good and dark story! I am already looking forward to diving into the next audiobook, Tainted Blood!
