About this listen
She’s an innocent.
Caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.
My Angel is the one who got away—the only person in the world I love. When she is caught in an unsanctioned bank robbery in my territory, only my reputation protects her.
She should have stayed away.
Instead, she charges back into my life like a shining beacon in my otherwise bleak existence. She has no place in my world where hardened criminals toy with the lives of the innocent.
A better man would let her go—again.
There’s no white picket fence in life with a Bellandi, and she deserves so much more. I pushed her away once, but now that she’s back I won’t let anything else come between us.
Not even Ivory herself.
Bloodied Hands is a full-length standalone novel with dark content. The Bellandi Crime Syndicate Series includes several full-length standalones that can be listened to in any order, but would present a better listening experience following the suggested listening order.

Story
Rafael Ibarra tore through my life like a raging inferno. Consuming every part of me he touches, he promises to show me passion and the real Ibiza. Though our tryst can never be anything but temporary, I never want to leave the man who makes me wish things were different. But there’s a nightmare hiding within his multicolored gaze, a phantom rattling at the cages who wants to devour me, to take me and claim me as his. He’s temptation, pushing me toward sin with his wicked touch. As much as I hate his secrets…I will never tell him my own.

Running away from home at 17 wasn't easy. Let's face it, though, nothing before or in the ten years since has ever been easy for me. And I'm doing okay—sorta. I just need to keep scraping by, living under the radar. Staying out of people's way, off people's minds. When a man walks through my open patio door, stepping boldly into my home and my life, I should be scared, frightened, terrified. I must be more broken than I realized because I'm none of those things. I'm intrigued—and I'm wondering if the way to take control of my life is by giving in to him.

Gabriel Corso is the stuff of nightmares and dirty dreams. He's a sinfully gorgeous mafia prince from a brutal rival family. In school, he was the bane of my existence. The dark villain to my sheltered princess. Then–poof–he disappeared. If only he’d stayed away. Turns out, our marriage is a term of his inheritance and now he’s returned to collect what’s his. That means ripping me from my gilded cage. It means locking me beneath his searing flesh. It means war. I’m not supposed to like it. To beg for more. To fall for him.

Story
Money. It’s the root of all evil and I need it bad. You could call it the wrong place, wrong time. To me the day I met Enzo was the day the old me died. When he kidnaps me thinking I’m the daughter of his enemy, the only thing I can do is pretend to be something I’m not. But the more I pretend, the deeper I fall. Enzo is dark, cruel, and menacing, but he’s protective, fierce, and determined. Soon he wants to forge a contract between our families, making me his bride, but he has no idea I’m not whom he thinks I am and when he finds out … well, I know I’m as good as dead.

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.

A bit of a miss on audio
I had some issues with the story, but the female narrator really ruined it for me. So flat and monotone and didn’t do a good job with the occasional Italian words thrown in (i.e. cara mia). It just really took me out of the story, which was already just “meh” for me. The “hero” did a couple of unforgivable things and there was zero grovel. Not even a come to Jesus with the heroine. She just accepted it because his fears about her safety were proven true.
Not sure I’m going to continue the series, but I definitely will NOT be continuing on audio if the narrator is the same.

Brutal narration
The narration was brutal. The female was whining and monotone. Males voice wasn’t much better. I powered thru it but will not listen to book 2 because it has the same narrators.

Weak women make Sick!
Ok, there is being persuaded, and then there is simply weak. Overall, the storyline is ok, but the extreme way the female character just takes everything with little to no pushback is annoying.
Surely, we can do better.

Narrator
From the first minute I was not sure if I will make it to the end… I could not stand the female narrator. I’ve checked opinions and agree with all regarding it. Question in each sentence… I am sure the author did not want get character to be whiny and weak, but narrator has made her so. Out of respect, as I am a polish writer too, I have listened to the end. To the narrator- your voice is ok, but please work with someone and learn. You can do it, but you need someone to teach you how to not waste author’s work. You can do it!

Female voice was awful
The male voice was smooth and sexy but the female voice was so annoying I almost didn’t listen to the whole story
Had to stop to get a break from her voice

Terrible female narrator
I will not listen to another audiobook narrated by this woman. She has zero soul. Do yourself a favor and read this don’t listen. It’s awful. Can’t think of a worse narrator. Even virtual voice is better than her. Good story though.

The story is simple
I like that the story is simple and straightforward but I don’t like the narrator’s. The female is kind of robotic and her voice doesn’t fit the character the male is fine but still not the greatest narration.

good story
Teenage heartbreak 😭💔 so hard to get over. Liked they both felt the same. Hard to get over 1st loves. I enjoy mafia stories. Loved the lizard. I've heard these narrators before in another mafia stories and I had to get over how she reads in order to get through the books. loved the ending.

Bloodied Hands
WTH 🤦🏼♀️ Who chose the female narrator? They should be fired! The voice was awful (no offense to Ms. Kelly) it was sooo wrong for this book the only saving grace was Patrick Zeller’s yummy voice.🫦 Storyline was good, ending with an HEA & a bambino was helpful lol. Is it worth a credit? NO, thankfully this book was free!
