About this listen
I don’t want a wife. But in the mafia, marriage isn’t about love—it’s about power.
When the Family demands I marry Giovanni Lucatello’s sheltered daughter, I drown my frustration in whiskey and meet a woman who’s everything I shouldn’t want: bold, sharp-tongued, and tempting as sin. One night with her is unforgettable. But by the next morning, she’s gone. Or so I thought.
When I walk into my engagement meeting, I see her sitting there, looking like innocence itself. Gianna Lucatello. The woman I’m bound to marry.
I’ll make her regret what her father did to me. I’ll make her pay for the Lucatello crest burned into my chest. I’ll punish her in ways that leave her breathless and begging for more.
Because the more I make her suffer, the more I crave her—and the more I realize that beneath her defiance is a woman I’ll burn the world down to protect.
Gianna isn’t just going to be my wife. She’s my obsession. And I’ll stop at nothing to keep her.
Tropes: Arranged Marriage, Enemies to Lovers, Touch Her and Die, Forced Proximity, Possessive Hero, Mafia Romance
Note: Charming Villain is Luciano and Gianna's story. This novel features dark themes, steamy scenes, and mature content. Please read the first chapter for a full list of TWs.
Each book in The Terlizzis series can be read as a standalone novel.

I accidentally slept with a much older Bratva guy who tortures for a living… I met him at the library of my university. I’m normally a good girl, but he turned me bad.

But when I’m the eyewitness to a shootout, he’s the one who comes to interrogate me… I had no idea that the underworld existed. I had no idea that guys like him torture people in their basements.

Branded by betrayal, fueled by revenge—I’m back to destroy the brother who banished me. The Castiglione name once ruled the Midwest mafia, but Saverio erased me like I never existed. Five years in exile only sharpened my hunger for vengeance. Now, I’ll burn his empire to the ground—but I need the most dangerous weapon I can find: Raiden Drake. Raiden’s the Destroyers’ enforcer, a ruthless man who bends rules and breaks bones. He doesn’t take orders, but he does take control—of everything. My body. My mind. My soul.

Story
I’m a merciless killer. A hitman with one last job before I can quit and do what I really want with my life. It should be simple. Go to a club, find my mark, and shoot. But when I get there, things get hard. Pun intended. It’s impossible to ignore the intense, blue eyes gazing at me from the group of women on stage being sold to the highest bidder. Something primal ignites inside me the longer I stare at her. She needs me to protect her. On a snap decision, I place a bid and before I know it I own her.

I never meant to fall for my best friend’s father—the grumpy, gorgeous billionaire I should’ve run from. One broken-down car. One reckless night. And suddenly, I’m in Calder Thorne’s arms, breaking every rule without even knowing it. I thought he was just a brooding mechanic with rough hands and a wicked mouth—one drink, one kiss, one night we swore to forget. The real heartbreak comes later—when I realize he’s the father of the one person I can’t afford to lose. He’s older. Hardened by loss. Off-limits in every way.

Reed Ellis is absolutely gorgeous but a total newbie to camming, a virtual nobody in my world. I should have just deleted his message request for a steamy on-camera collaboration. Not everyone is cut out to be a camboy. But there's just something about him I couldn't resist. He's timid and inexperienced, quiet and closed off, but his fumbling first times play out scorching hot for the cameras, and our videos together are an instant success. I know I should just ride this out, sit back and watch the money roll in, and then move on.
