Publisher's summary
One day, the life I lead will get me killed. It's my burden to carry.
One I easily accept. One I never thought twice about until the day I met her.
While avenging his mother’s death, Declan Connolly trusts no one, not even the men sworn to be loyal to him as the leader of their Irish clan. The final warning Declan’s father gives him on his deathbed is one he holds close to his chest. But when Francesca Costa stumbles into his life, he must decide whether he will continue to heed his father’s warning or trust the Italian beauty that could destroy everything.

Story
There are three reasons that will get you killed by the hands of your own family. Three rules. They are simple. Don't disobey an order. Don't betray your family. And don't touch a made man's girl. For her, I'll break them all. Mario Leoni had left his home in New York with no plans to ever look back. Taking a job on the opposite side of the country to escape the life he'd been born into was for the best. It also meant giving up the only woman he ever loved.

The only plan I had for myself was my career. My career as a buyer for one of the largest high-end department stores was the only commitment for which I had time. The only one I was willing to make. Now, being left with no choice but to return to my hometown, I'm finding it hard to remember why I left in the first place. Because all that's on my mind is Tucker. He is just as sexy. Just as charming. Just as dangerous as he used to be....

Story
Who needs a man? They're nothing but a distraction. A disappointment. They sweep you off your feet, promise you forever. Then, as soon as another beautiful woman shows them interest, they leave you crying alone on the sidewalk with your dreams of a life together crushed. And the sexy playboy who keeps showing up everywhere I go is the definition of distraction and inevitable disappointment. I can live without that heartbreak. I have everything I need to make me happy - a job, school, friends, and family that I love. Yep. Mind made up. It's just a shame my heart didn't get the memo.

The first time I met Merrick Crawford was during my job interview. Well, technically, I’d met him 20 minutes earlier when he’d barged into a fitting room a few doors down from my appointment. I yelled. He yelled. After an argument while standing in my bra, I proceeded to smash the door into the gorgeous jerk, trying to yank it shut. As you might imagine, I was freaked out when I discovered that the rude guy was my potential new boss. Yet he didn’t seem to recognize me. Or so I thought.... Until we wound up bickering again during my interview and he told me to go sniff my armpit.

Sunshine. It's a nickname I haven't heard since I lived on Woodbury Lane, where the houses were pretty, but the secrets? Deadly. It was a pet name known only to the Bullets. Rough, violent, and ruthless, they laid claim to the town - and my heart. I wasn't supposed to fall for a boy from the wrong side of the tracks‚ especially not four of them. But they were the only ones who understood that sometimes hell hides in plain sight.

Handsome and mysterious, he swoops in to offer me a new life, but this is no knight in shining armor. He’s cold, hardened by his past. But there’s an inferno underneath the ice. I can feel the heat each time he looks at me - each time he gives in to the desire between us. No matter how much I push to unleash the fire in his eyes, he shoves back harder each time. He’s merciless with his cruel words, telling me how naive I am, how little I know of the world.

Story
Handsome and mysterious, he swoops in to offer me a new life, but this is no knight in shining armor. He’s cold, hardened by his past. But there’s an inferno underneath the ice. I can feel the heat each time he looks at me - each time he gives in to the desire between us. No matter how much I push to unleash the fire in his eyes, he shoves back harder each time. He’s merciless with his cruel words, telling me how naive I am, how little I know of the world.

The deal is simple: spend a month with a mysterious billionaire who is the owner of Louisiana’s La Petite Mort Casino, and he’ll forget my father’s gambling debts. If it means saving our family home and business, I’ll do anything. With his strong, sexy, take charge arrogance, Nicolas Dupont is a mystery to me. But it doesn’t matter how hot he is.

Maybe staying in one place for too long is the source of his unhappiness, or maybe it's because he's engaged to the wrong person. Finding his fiance in bed with another man takes care of one problem but creates another. Ridge needs a place to live.

Gitty mafia romance with heart
The Made series is a mafia romance series, and it is not for the faint of heart. This is a fast-paced novel with tons of drama and action, and it's will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
Declan is driven, but like many mafia "heroes" he is driven by the need for vengeance. It's a hard, isolating and soul-sucking existence. Until he meets Francesca. She is unexpected and complicated, and the infiltrates his very soul with her need for answers of her own. Their connection, their bond, is strong.
The narration by Connor Crais and Chloe Ryan was excellent. Connor is a versatile voice actor that do gritty dark mafia and light rom com equally well. Chloe Ryan is new to me, and she's definitely a voice that I enjoyed listening to.

Burden
A great resumption from book 1 in the "Made" series.
Amazing narration, awsome story.
We already met Declan in the first book, but now it's his and Francesca's story (part of her past is entwined too with the first book).
I couldn't stop listening and I need to know what happens in book 3.

Light mafia romance
I love this world that Melissa Ellen has created. It lets me dip my toe in the mafia world, but isn't over violent.
Declan and Frankie's story gives us more into the crime family that Declan is part of and the one that Declan's sister (from book 1) was part of. Frankie never knew about her family's past and Declan will do whatever it takes to protect her from it.
This story was fast paced with a good love story and a good mafia story behind it. Melissa Ellen does a great job and building this world and including pieces that you didn't even know you were missing from the first book in the series. I can't wait to finish the series!
The narrators did a great job telling this story.

Irish Mafia Romance!
Burden by Mellisa Ellen is a swoon-worthy romantic suspense with an Irish Mafia Anti-Hero.
Declan and Francesca's dark romance was a twisty suspenseful story with a hero obsessed with revenge after his mother was killed. Declan did not expect to fall for Francesca and it was great to see him soften a little for her and protect her from harm.
Connor Crais and Chloe Ryan were fantastic at portraying the characters, accents and emotion in the audiobook of Burden.

Good addition to the series
I enjoyed listening to Declan and Francesca's story. It's a great addition to the series as we previously met Declan in book one, Honor. There's action and suspense, and it's relatively mild for a mafia story.
There were times where the accent slipped just a little, but Connor Crais and Chloe Ryan did a great job with the narration.

Great!
Francesca and Declan grabbed me from the first page. This is not only a mafia romance but a story of finding answers and forgiveness. The chemistry between them is explosive and I just couldn't put this down. Listening to the audio of this made it even better. Getting to hear the narrators bring these characters to life was amazing. Connor and Chloe do this justice and so much more.

Declan and Francesca are amazing!
“Burden” was a wild and steamy mafia romance that had my interest captured from the first chapter and I finished in one sitting.
Declan is looking for revenge against the person who killed his mother. Declan has become the head of the Irish mob after his father was killed. Now the leader he groomed for from a young age, he’s the leader everyone fears. Francesca has been living in New York City for college but also has another reason to be there. She wants to find her father, the man her mother has kept away from her whole life. When Declan and Francesca’s paths cross in his night club in NYC. Declan can’t get her out of his mind and when someone tries to kidnap her, Declan takes her under his protection.
This was a fast paced, edge of your seat Irish Mafia that I absolutely loved. Declan is sinfully delicious and a very overprotective alpha. He captivates you from the very beginning. His danger status just pulls you in. Francesca was great. I loved how strong she was despite having her world turned upside down. She wasn’t afraid to challenge Declan and that made their relationship even more spectacular.
Connor Crais blew me away with his performance. His Irish with a hint of Boston accent was so good, I had to double check the title to make sure it was him. That man has a talent for accents. Chloe Ryan is a new to me narrator and she was the perfect one to be cast as Francesca. She brought all of Francesca’s emotions and strength to light.

Thrilling Irish Mafia Romance
Audiobook Review
Burden by Melissa Ellen is the second book in her Made series. This story is full of action, crime, and drama. It is a thrilling read and one I couldn’t stop until I finished.
Declan is seeking revenge after becoming the head of the Irish mob due to his father’s heinous murder. He trusts no one and will not allow himself to get distracted or allow anyone to get in his way. Until Francesca. She is the one thing he never saw coming and her need to seek answers about her own father lands herself deep into Declan’s world. These two were magnetic! Their intense connection and phenomenal chemistry was addicting. The way Francesca sees through Declan and is able to soften some of his hardness and Declan’s ability to ground Francesca made them the perfect unit and they became unstoppable together. One of my favourite things about a mafia romance is the strong theme of family, loyal and love and this story has this in spades and I highly recommend it.
Connor Crais' performance blew me away. His ability to tap into the raw emotion of Declan’s character was impressive. Chloe Ryan is a new to me narrator. Her voice aptly portrayed the emotion and complexities of Francesca’s character and these two brought this story to life phenomenally.

Loved the Twists
Melissa Ellen is a new-to-me author and I was given the opportunity to listen to the audio version of Burden. Mafia-type tropes are not generally my thing, however I am always willing to try new authors. I'm glad I did. This story had some great twists that will keep you on the edge of your seat. I had to stop myself trying to speed up just so I can find out what's next. The chemistry between Declan and Francesca was jumping off the page.
The audiobook was narrated by Connor Crais and Chloe Ryan. Loved the accent from Connor and I really enjoyed Chloe's portrayal of Francesca.
