Publisher's summary
Top 100 international Amazon best seller
Issa Dubova is the queen of cloudy diamonds: a Bratva princess.
My reluctant new wife.
A pretty bargain in exchange for the names of the men who killed my father.
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.
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.
Black Skies Riviera is a heart-stopping arranged marriage mafia romance set on the French Riviera with NO cliff-hanger and a guaranteed HEA. For mature listeners only.

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.

Story
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.

Mikhail Dmitriyev is a beautiful devil with a villainous heart and a thirst for revenge. The choices he gave me when he stole me away from my home with an army of men were very clear—marry me or die. I chose to marry him and live. But there’s one small problem with his grand plan to rain Armageddon on the Mexican Cartel. I’m not the woman he thinks I am. I’m not the cartel princess he thinks he took to make his enemies bow to him. When my captor finds out my secret and realizes he married the wrong woman, love won’t be enough to save me. And neither will his obsession.

You’ll judge me. Hate me, and tell me I’m wrong. Refuse to see how my darkness is what she needs. While I don’t particularly care about your feelings in the matter, and while I pursue her - despite the wedding bells that rang for another - only I can see how she is drowning beneath mediocrity. He had his chance to make her happy. He failed. He didn't see how she was dying inside, because he couldn't know her. Not like I know her. I am her stalker. Her protector. And the only man that can bring her back to life.

Triple Falls wasn’t at all what it seemed, nor were the men that swept me under their wing. But in order to keep them, I had to be in on their secrets. Secrets that cost us everything to keep. That’s the novelty of fiction versus reality. You can’t re-live your own love story, because by the time you’ve realized you’re living it, it’s over. At least that was the case for me and the men I trusted my foolish heart to. Looking back, I’m convinced I willed my story into existence, due to my illness, and all were punished.

But when her cousin dies and leaves her with a long-as-hell and sexy bucket list, Kit turns to me for a helping hand. What can I say? I’m a sucker for a woman in need.

His proposal came in a little black envelope with 13 unlucky words: You still owe me that favor, doll, and I'm cashing in. Marry me. In a normal life, I'd never get hitched to Calvin Randolph. Not with his heart-stopping blue eyes, infamous player reputation, and an ego bigger than the part of his anatomy he loves boasting about the most. Been there, done that. All except the last part, which he's left to my shameful imagination for seven years apart. Of course, the fake fiancée contract I just signed is anything but normal.

When Cristiano Grigori came for me, he didn’t come alone. He brought his army to kill the soldiers at my door and took me for himself. He put his ring on my finger and marked me as mafia property. His property. Cristiano is my enemy. He’s also the only man with whom I’ve ever felt safe. Protected. But I have to remember that he married me with one purpose in mind—revenge. I would be the bridge to his real enemies. I can’t let myself forget that he isn’t the hero of this story. His hands are covered in blood. I saw that with my own eyes.

In the morning, she was gone and had taken my solace with her. I left for the military that day, vowing never to return to Pennsylvania. When my father dies, I’m forced to go home to bury him. At least I'll finally be rid of his farm, which is grown over and tangled with memories I've fought to forget. And that’s when I find her. She’s even more beautiful than I remember and has the most adorable kid I’ve ever seen. Years have passed, but my feelings are the same, and this time I refuse to let her go. They say you can't bury the past, and they're right.

A Dark Mafia Romance!
This is a beautifully written enemies-to-lovers dark mafia romance. Aiden and Issa's story is intense, suspenseful, and captivating, filled with danger, secrets, betrayal, and twists and turns. Aiden is the perfect antihero, dark, ruthless, and revengeful. Issa is strong, and smart. I loved to see again the characters from Hearts of Darkness, the first book in The Santiago Trilogy. Elizabeth Russell and Gregory Salinas did a great job with the narration. If you like dark mafia romance, this audiobook is for you. #PinkFlamingoProductions #TheFlock #AudiobookObsession

dark, intense
Adrian is looking for the murderer of his parents. To get the names, he must marry Issa Dubova. She's just a pawn for his own agenda. Love doesn't have anything to do with this.
When the game changes with the mafia, can Adrian afford to lose everything for the woman he became to love? Who can he really trust?
Catherine Wiltcher story is full of twists, turns, lies, mystery, betrayal and murder. It's fast paced, full of action, steamy sex.
Elizabeth Russell, Gregory Salinas narration is very good. They bring depth to each character.

Black Skies Riviera
Black Skies Riviera is a story told from dual points of view from Aiden Knight and Issa Dubov. Aiden and Issa end up in an arranged marriage. Issa will do anything to protect her sister's whereabouts, and Aiden is hired to find the sister. Issa fights Aiden every step of the way. He thinks she's a spoiled rich girl, and he grew up with nothing.
As the story goes on, Aiden learns there is more to Issa than meets the eye. As Aiden and Issa get to know each other, so many secrets come out about her family, and about his past.
Can Aiden protect Issa when she needs it? He protects what's his. What happens when he meets with her family? Will Issa believe Aiden or will she turn on him when she learns some of his secrets?
I really enjoyed getting to know these characters. I feel that Issa was a strong heroine, and would do whatever she had to to survive. Aiden was originally on a mission, but he learned a lot about himself through this book as well.

aiden & issa!
one of my favorite tropes is arranged marriage & this book did not disappoint! aiden & issa met out of pure luck & then come to find out they’re supposed to marry each other. they both don’t like each other in the beginning because neither of them want to marry the other. but oh how it all changes!
gregory salinas is becoming a favorite of mine! i love his russian accent but his english accent might be taking the #1 spot. elizabeth russell is new to me but she didn’t disappoint. can’t wait to hear more from both of them!

A Profoundly Awesome Story! Excellent Narration🎧
This is my second book written by Catherine Wiltcher and she blew my mind once again with another amazing story. She is a gifted author with an impressive and creative mind, her store swept me write in, it captivated my attention for the entire book. It is the type of book that you can not put down because you need to know what happens next. This romantic suspense is dark and twisted, it takes you to the edge of your seat at times and there are several mind-blowing twists that you never see coming nor would have ever guessed. Aiden Knight’s parents were murdered when he was 16, he turned to the one person who can help him find the killers and get revenge. Tommaso Zaccaria is the head of the Zaccaria family, a powerful mob family. But he does not give with out getting so Aiden needs to make a deal to get what he wants, that entails devoting 14 years of his life to Zaccaria. The story fast forwards 14 years, Aiden has done very well for himself, owning several businesses including a casino. He has connections and business dealings with several mob families, including the Italians and the Russians. He is at the cusp of getting his revenge for his parents murder but he has to do one more thing, which is to marry Ielena “Issa” Dubova, the daughter of a Russian Bratva boss. He was not expecting this development but has to go along, he is not happy about it, nor is he happy about how it come into play. Issa was not the intended bride but she too had no choice, she is protecting her sister and doing her duty as a Bratva Princess. Issa and Aiden first meet as strangers to each other, the meeting did not go well at all and impressions of each other were not good at all. So when it came time for them to officially meet a crappy situation got even crappier. Issa thought she was marrying a Zaccaria and did not know what to make of the change, Aiden started to put more of the pieces together when he found out it was that it was the sister who was the intended. The chemistry between Aiden and Issa was explosive, the dialogue and back and forth banter was amazing, Issa could give as good as she got. While Aiden could be ruthless but he had a soft side he seldom showed anyone. I loved how everything played out in this book, the story is cleverly plotted, with plenty of drama, angst, twists and turns, mystery, thrilling suspense, heartfelt emotions and some hot romance. Catherine Wiltcher, thank you for another awesome story and emotional rollercoaster ride, I loved every minute of it.
🎧📚🎧 Elizabeth Russell and Gregory Salinas were the perfect cast to bring these characters and their story to life. They were awesome at portraying the characters, giving each their own distinct voice, accents included. They had a complete understanding of each character they played, I loved how they took each role and made it their own, sounding believable and just as I pictured the character to sound. Gregory Salinas played Aiden masterfully and Elizabeth Russell did the same for Issa. Both were awesome playing the secondary characters as well. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all of the characters emotions which was reflected into their performance. These two talented voice artists are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another awesome listen.

Classic Dark Enemies To Lovers
Hi really enjoyed this one as it is an example of the classic dark enemies to lovers trope. Aiden hates his bride he is forced to marry just because of who her family is and his belief that she wants the marriage. He treats her so badly in the beginning until they both succumb to the heat between them and he learns she didn't want the married either.
After that they are all heat and chemistry. They need to be a united team because they face danger that they never saw coming and they will learn that love is the best thing ever worth fighting for.
Really good narration by Elizabeth Russell and Gregory Salinas.
This audiobook is definitely worth a credit!

Wow. I'm impressed!
Some parts were a little hard to keep up with for me. That is most likely a personal thing. Anyway. I really enjoyed the read. It's not something I really thought I would like. The cover is really pretty as well. I loved the narrators in this book as well. I'm curious to see if this becomes a series. If so, I wonder where it's going to go from there. There are so many possibilities.

Never Disappointed!!!
Catherine Wiltcher has done it again! I love the way she can pull me into a scene and keep me wanting for more! I look forward to reading more from her. This is the 2nd book I've read from this author and I'm hooked!

Black Skies Riviera
"Fell." He feeds the word into the space between us like a morsel of truth. "You're making me feel, princess. And that's the most dangerous thing of all." ~ Aiden Knight, Black Skies Riviera by Catherine Wiltcher
Aiden is on a mission to find out who killed his parents. After fourteen years serving with La Famiglia, he is eagerly awaiting the names of his parents' killers when he is told there has been an amendment to the agreement and he must wed Issa Dubov, the daughter of a Russian mafia leader. As secrets start to come out, all bets are off.
Black Skies Riviera is my first book by Catherine Wiltcher and I am still fairly new to mafia romances. I enjoyed the story and the twists and turns. Aiden was witty but a little over the top at times and Issa seemed like she was always trying too hard at whatever emotion she was trying to convey. By the end of the book, they were good together but it took a bit to get there.
Gregory Salinas did a good job as a British character. This was my first experience with Elisabeth Russell and I enjoyed her as a narrator. Both narrators did a good job of bringing the story to life.
