Irish Mafia MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE and AGE GAP Romance.

Lethal Enforcer X Damaged Ballerina

Cruel. Insane. Furious. Lachlan O’Rourke crashed my wedding, saw the bruises under my veil, and now… he’s my new husband.

He’s untamed and reclusive and says I’m way too young and innocent for a monster like him. He keeps reminding me this is just a marriage of convenience to keep me safe until the ballet conservatory accepts me.

Dancing is my life. Unaliving is his.

Only, I’m falling for him, and you know what they say?

The devil you know is better than the one you don’t.

Or will this deal with the devil be both our downfall?

Surprisingly Romantic

This story was unexpectedly romantic in the best way! Even though I haven’t listened to the other books in the series, I never felt like I was missing anything—it stood strong on its own. The narration was engaging and brought the story to life, making it an even more enjoyable experience. Overall, it was a fantastic listen from start to finish!

Beauty and her Beast

Wow! I read this book before and now have had the true pleasure of getting to listen to the audio version. I couldn't stop listening. The narrator's did a truly amazing performance and really brought all the characters to life for me. Love the accents and all the emotion put into it. Highly recommend either version.
Below is my original book review.

This book is fantastic. It's non stop action kept me glued to each page. Lachlan is a beast of an enforcer. Katya is a bratva princess. These two meet and have an instant connection. A few years later they reconnect and Lachlan is there to save her. They are polar opposites but complete each other. I love their story and to me it has a beauty and the beast vibe but in the mafia world. 5 star must read.

Katya and Lachlan

I really enjoyed this age gap book and would recommend all of the Astoria Royals series. Even though Lachlan was a k!ller, there was something really likeable about him. I love how possessive Lachlan was of Katya. Troy Duran was awesome as Lachlan. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

A Blessing in Disguise Romance that Danced Angelically in my Soul

Amen! I don’t know how she does it! I have adorable every book in this series and I keep thinking after finishing every entry, “There’s no way they can get any better…the new couple become my favorite…” And every time, I’m wrong.

Totally okay with that.

The twists hit hard within the first hour or so of the audiobook, our sweet ballerina making an innocent suggestion to help someone she loved set all the events in motion for this whole series! And the type of soul and dreams our brute of an enforcer had shook me to my core in the best way.

These two truly needed each other, complete the other, their rapport so touching that not only do you wish for that, you melt for the possibility of having someone like that at your side.

And I think we all relate to these two in someway. A girl who was ignored. A guy who will go to any links to protect, but he questions the morality of himself in secret because of it. The patient and loving they have for each other, even just as acquaintances is so beautiful. And of course really steamy in the appropriate ways. It balance both flawlessly.

The universe continues to build in the Astoria royals, although you can listen to the story on its own. And like the other stories, it has a cliffhanger for the next one.

With the cast expanding, I really love how each male from the previous stories get to come in and have cameos. Hearing DB West, Tyler, Griffin, and the superstar Logan Anare reprise their roles was a real treat. Lexi Evans has been the main lead for all four books and she is the queen of accents in this series! I follow her and her amazing career and I am just awestruck and so proud of the loveliness and heart she puts in every single female. And she had to really showcase this since all of the previous females also had cameos. I wanted to be best friends with Cat and I really appreciate how she does that. Lachlan was brilliantly played, and he had been hyped up for every book having cameos. It was great for him to be the lead and he did not disappoint. Hearing four different Irish accents and male voices was really a gift. Every voice was as comforting as a grilled cheese sandwich.

The realism of this one did hit me hard. And this is it no fault of the author, but I do want to mention it because I might not be the only person who has to deal with this. The scene at the school, no spoilers, really affected me. Which shows the power of the author of how they composed it. But, as an educator, I have actually been in this situation and it’s quite frightening and it did bring up some trauma for me. I just wasn’t expecting it and if I missed a trigger warning, then I apologize. But I’ll just say for anyone who’s had to go on lockdown at a school for an extreme, terrifying situation, that is in this book so before warned. I did have to pause the book for a day because it hit me so hard. But I do know that and I pray that I am in the very minority of that.

I would recommend this book to anyone who loves spice, heart, wittiness, and of course, sexy Irish men with an edge. Especially once you are willing to tattoo.

Danger, Drama, and Twists and Turns!

This is the fourth book in the Astoria Royals series, an Irish mafia romance. Lachlan and Katya's story is entertaining, and engaging, filled with danger, drama, and twists and turns. Lachlan, an enforcer, is enigmatic, ruthless and protective. Katya, a mafia princess, is beautiful, strong, and determined. This is a great marriage of convenience and age-gap romance. The full cast of narrators did a fantastic job bringing these characters, and this story to life. I enjoyed it. Looking forward to listening to Ring of Truth, the next book in the series.

Deal With the Devil!

This is a great read/listen and sixth story in the mafia "Astoria Royals" series. I have enjoyed all of the stories in this series. Although not completely necessary, I would probably read them in order. I absolutely loved the story and the surprises that were in store. The story is about Eoghan and Jillian and has some many unpredictable twists. It is a steamy read that is engaging, captivating and realistic. I love the characters! It is an age gap read with an arranged marriage, twists, surprises, passion, suspense, danger and more. The narration was good and really brought the story and characters to life.
