About this listen

The continuation of international best-selling author Maggie Cole's highly-received secret society, drenched in dark undertones, next-generation Mafia series about two enemy lovers never meant to be together until one action catapulted their arranged marriage. Now, Fiona O'Malley and Kirill Petrov will have to let go of their preconceived notions, emotional scars, and everything they knew to be true about themselves.

My brother arranged for me to marry a stranger, one marked with a diagonal scar across his face and a tattoo necklace on his hand.

Neither disgusts me. They also aren't what scares me.

Kirill Petrov's a sworn enemy of our family and King of the Underworld. A towering man with darkness in his gaze, an unspoken promise of what he'll do to me, and something so deep in his expression it hurts my heart.

Yet the blaze of his allure only grows hotter, singing, until I can't resist him any longer…until I'm his Queen wearing his necklace night after night, staring at the beast inside his soul.

If I could, I'd kill that beast until the world saw my husband as the man I see—the man I love.

Except I give him my heart before I learn the full truth. And once you see the unforgettable, how can you go back? How can you forgive your husband for sins that aren't his, yet he's tied to? Especially when the people you love got hurt in the most vile of ways?

Bride by Coronation is a standalone novel with interconnected characters and book two of The Underworld series. This dark, secret society, Mafia, enemies to lovers, forbidden, arranged marriage, and emotional scars novel is not meant for the faint of heart. Expect violence, taboo, and graphic scenes.

From the moment Kirill speaks, I was trapped. I had already read the book but I wanted to hear the story too! I was sucked in again, deeper this time, into Kirill’s and Fiona’s story. I didn’t like Fiona’s character in the previous books but I fell in love with her here! Such a strong woman to show how easy it is to look past the face value and see everything!

Kirill stole my heart from the beginning. His struggle for self acceptance is a beautiful journey!

Both narrators did a beautiful job of pushing the emotion through. I loved every minute!

Can’t wait for Brax and Valentina!!!

Fiona & Kirill’s story definitely did not disappoint. This is a continuation of the Underground Series focusing on Sean’s sister Fiona.

Because of Sean’s actions in Bride by Initiation Fiona is forced into an arranged marriage to a man she hasn’t met. However what Fiona doesn’t realize is that the scared man she hasn’t been able to stop thinking about is actually her new groom.

Kirill is the King of the Underworld but he’s being forced to marry his Queen. Kirill would do anything to protect Fiona especially since the secret he’s keeping about her father’s death could destroy any happiness the couple could have.

Fiona is a fiesty, no holds barred FMC and Kirill’s will protect his Queen by any means necessary. I wasn't a big fan of Kirill's constant insecurities concerning his scars and Fiona's feelings towards him. I wish he’d been a little more secure with his scared appearance.

I loved how Kirill wrote to Fiona before the wedding to make her more comfortable with their reality. The suspense and tension in the book kept me coming back for more and I can’t wait to see what Maggie has in store for us in book 3.

The narrators and audio was amazing.

What plot this did have… was predictable and redundant. I found the storyline not really exciting at all. I would not get this book and would return it if I could.
