About this listen
Everything I've done, everything I will do...there will be no regret. The world is a vicious place for a woman. It's even crueler to the daughter of the Ceann na Conairte - discarded, married off, left powerless...But I am no ordinary daughter of the mafia.
Unlike every other mafia family, my mother was Melody Callahan, Bloody Mel, the Don of the Italian Mafia, and the Don didn't raise some precious mafia princess. Bone by bone she broke me first, so no one else could - and bone by bone, I pieced myself back together.
I am no longer just the daughter. I am the Don. I am Donatella Aviela Callahan, and there is only one way - my way.
Contains mature themes.

I didn’t know Raphael Amado when he turned up on our doorstep demanding restitution for an old debt. My grandfather knew him well, though, and he quickly conceded. That restitution? Me. Six months later, Raphael came to claim me. He took me from my home, taking me to his Tuscan estate, where from the crumbling chapel to the destroyed vineyard to that dark cellar, the past stalked him like a shadow. Even the walls held secrets here, and I’d need to uncover them all to survive.

Our first meeting began with a contract that forced me to marry him and sign my life away. I was a debt repayment and a pawn in his game to exact revenge against my father. The only way out is death. I belong to him now. Me, the Balesteri Mafia princess. Pure and untouched. Owned by the devil who placed me in a gilded cage.

I was stolen away and held prisoner in Italy, a bride for a mafia king's only heir. Except I'm no innocent, and it's the king himself—the man called il Diavolo—who appeals to me in sinful ways I never dreamed. Fausto's wickedness draws me in, his power like a drug. And when the devil decides he wants me, I'm helpless to resist him—even if it means giving myself to him, body and soul. He may think he can control me, but this king is about to find out who's really the boss.

A UNIQUE & COMPELLING STORY EPICALLY NARRATED
Wow.. wow. wow.. this exciting four book series is growing - and building - and brewing ready to explode in its climactic end later on in the year. Meanwhile the perfection continues with Donatella’s story and she’s definitely her mother’s daughter.. she’s cold, ruthless and very ambitious.. but the top spot in the Callahan/Giovanni Mafia has already been taken by her brother.. so where does that leave Donatella? It leaves her craving more.. it leaves her vying for power.. and it leaves her carving out her own destiny thanks to a mysterious alpha stranger who only has a first name.. well, he’s also got an agreement to marry her.
Book 1 was a pretty much an insta-love story.. but this book is a delicious slow-burn of quick-witted banter and a push/pull relationship that sets the groundwork for another spin-off series and for love.. but there are many hurdles to cross, secrets that are yet to be revealed, revelations that are shocking and a bloody tbc ending no one saw coming. Donatella’s got to be conquered not wooed so it’s light on romance and I daren’t say any more.. except JJM’s writing abilities are absolutely limitless. She continues to spin a unique and intricate Mafia web, she continues to plot-build and plot-bomb, she continues to grab, grip, shock, chill and thrill.. she continues to leave me speechless.. and she continues to make me yearn for more more more. Again there’s multiple POV’s and Joel Froomkin’s awesome skills as a narrator continues to blow me away.
Worth a credit? Yes very.

Another FANTASTIC book:)
This is the sister's story of the series and the
name is Donatella Callahan. This is book 2 of 3 in the Callahan Children book series:)
This author is absolutely gifted Really need I say more! The narrator is so good I don't even need to think about having to genders and that's hard to find even with the best narrators but in this series it just works all the way and it's an instant automatic purchase for all audiobooks!!!:)

Audio drama at its best!! Superb!!
I am a huge fan of this series and every book seems to get better and better. It could easily be said that this book is the most tame of all, but un the overall drama and plot side of things it's a phenomenal, unexpected and crazy ride. You are able to see so many great POVs of each family member, you are able to take into account so many nuances and how the author weaves, tangles and then lets all loose. Nothing and no one is safe and it might sound crazy but it's the surprise factor and the way that so many things are able to come together that make this series one of the best mafia series out there. The narration is a master class in performance!! Joel Froomkin takes every character and has no fear with delivering the truth behind the intention and giving the listener a gripping experience. I can not wait for the final installment of this series. BRAVO!!

OMG the last hour was crazy!
I am in love with this series. That being said.. Donna was not my favorite. Spent the majority of the book wishing someone would just kill her already!!! I did enjoy the story over all, lots of twists to figure out. The ending was a whirlwind! I am rushing to book 3 to see what happens. Narration was awesome as always with Joel!!!

Not as good as book one!
I didn’t enjoy this book as much as book one, especially the ending. Why the author chose to eliminate this character, is beyond me.
My other big issue is that I did and don’t like the Heroine, Donatello. I know that her character had to be tough but her selfishness and ambition, and the way she expresses this, are very ugly traits. I did find the way that the Hero successfully handled her crap, very amusing. This book also gave us more insight into Wyatt, The Heroine’s twin brother.
There is also a Cameo from a couple of characters from the original series. I have not listened to or read that series, but I think I will.
This series isn’t quite as brutal as book one and there is only one sex scene.
That being said, even though book 2 didn’t have the same impact on me, as book one did, I’m still just as anxious to get started with book three!

Homs again
We’re back with my favorite mafia family! Flashbacks to Liam and Melody, made me weepy, so happy to hear their voices again... watching their children become the new leaders is great and sad at the same time. I mess their parents.. the family is still as crazy as before.. of course you’ll never see the twists approaching... and they are doozies! Thank JJ for bring the family back, and Joel for bring them back to life!
