About this listen

Our first meeting was at a nightclub, and it was something straight out of my most romantic fantasies.

My ovaries exploded at the sight of the Russian God. And by God, I mean he was ripped, tall, dark, and deadly attractive. There were enough sparks between us to light up a city. Then an explosion blasted through the nightclub, and we got trapped together for three hours, sharing our most personal details...everything but our names.

Two years later, our second meeting is the complete opposite of the first. It's clear Misha Petrov, a Russian enforcer for the bratva, despises me. The emotional night we shared meant nothing to him.

You see, my family is sworn enemies with the bratva and Italian mafia, which means Misha considers me a threat.

I wish I could hate him the way he hates me. But no, my stupid heart wants what it wants. Every rough touch from Misha makes my skin tingle. Every low-rumbling threat growled through his clenched teeth has my breath speeding up. We might be sworn enemies, but I can't stop myself from wanting this dangerous man.

Then there's the other problem. If I can, by some miracle, get Misha to fall in love with me, we'll only have to face the entire bratva and my family. What could possibly go wrong?

From USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Michelle Heard comes a new standalone, full-length mafia romance novel. Contains mature content.

Forbidden romance

Romeo & Juliet meet the Bratva/Mafia! Michelle Heard's writing style will hook you from page 1 and keep you engaged until the end. Destroy Me set the bar high for this series, and I cant wait for it. The talented Samantha Cook and Duncan Cole nailed the narration and keep the story captivating.

Misha and Aurora

Wow! A nonstop action packed, dark and gritty journey to go on with Misha and Aurora. This is a definite page turner that kept me in the edge of my seat the entire time. I couldn’t get enough of the rawness and intensity of this story.

The MFC can’t be that dense

She grew up with a mob boss father, who dumbed her in a school she was ill prepared for. She runs around acting like she didn’t understand consequences. Some of turmoil is self inflicted by the MFC. Not saying I’m not sympathetic towards her but she acts like she doesn’t know what 2 and 2 is. She has no common sense and doesn’t seem to want to remedy that issue. She better stick to her man because lawd knows she’s not looking both ways before crossing any streets.

The narration was awesome. I felt immersed in the storyline even with all the hard eye rolls I had to do with the MFC and her dumb a$$ bestie.

Aurora and Mischa story

I am a sucker for second chance romance. But adding it to a mafia romance had its twist. I loved the tension between aurora and Mischa at the beginning. The fact that Mischa is a bad ass and is a sucker for aurora gets me every time. This is my first book from this author and I will definitely read another. Can’t wait for the next book.

Hot Mafia Romance

Fast paced, suspenseful plot. Great action mixed throughout the story and fabulously engaging. Keeps you guessing about what surprising twist would happen next.

Sizzling s3xual tension between Aurora and Misha was to d!e for. His over the top possessive vibe had my toes curling. He literally couldn’t control himself when he went ham on anyone who harmed her. Then in the next moment his amazing tenderness and sweetness while taking care of Aurora (((chefs kiss))).

Also the world building — I haven’t read many mafia romances so I’m unsure if this is unique to the Destroy Me / Corrupted Royals series. The war college that trained criminals from across all walks of life and strictly enforced a no murder on the grounds (but all other forms of violence and torture were fair game) was a genius and novel idea. I loved envisioning it like an adult, dark and spicy version of Hogwarts. I mean they were both set in castles. 😊

The narrators, Samantha Cook and Duncan Cole, were perfect for this story. Normally I’m not a huge fan of accents because I think many narrators struggle to stay in character. That wasn’t the case and I AM HERE FOR IT. Soooooo s3xy. I think both Cook and Cole are new-to-me narrators so I definitely plan to find more books read by them.

Overall - fabulous story! Highly recommend it. I look forward to continuing with the series.

Check the TWs. There is copious amounts of extremely GRAPH1C VI0LENCE, including torture, awful detailed descriptions of violent acts of torture and injuries.
