Publisher's summary

Fifteen years ago, she fell into my world. Fifteen years ago, I fell for her. She’s the love of my life. No going back. Loving someone means sacrificing your own happiness to protect them. Loving someone means making them hate you to keep them safe, to get them away from the toxicity that is your world. I destroyed us before we even had a chance to begin…

Can a near death experience bring both my kid and the woman who owns my heart back to me? This is Declan O'Donnelly's story.

So perfect!

Teddy Hamilton and CJ Bloom were perfect for this story! Teddy brought Declan to life and I loved listening to Declan growl at his brothers! If was so perfect! CJ did so good for Aela. The depth of her character was so spot on!

Declan was the misjudged brother of the Five Points. He loved the arts and his father always found a way to be hard on him because of it. I feel that even though his brothers love him and would do anything for him, they don't understand him or what makes him tick.

Aela was such a strong woman. The decisions that she had to make were so tough but she did what she had to do to protect her family.

I normally don't like second chance romances but this one was beyond good! You completely understood Aela's reasoning and sometimes love was just not enough. The miscommunication and the assumptions made it equally as hard for these two! I loved how the past and present took us on an emotional journey! I absolutely love this series!

Loved this story!

I’m listening to all the 5 points books for the first time and despite the fact that I started this one thinking ’bleh!’ Declan’s too quiet his story will be boring. Oh wow! How wrong I was! Loved Aela’s story and loved the inclusion of Sheamus too! Looking forward to starting the next one, but I so hope I get more of them all together as a family!!

I loved it!

This audiobook is beautifully written, I was consumed with this audiobook from the very first word. The narrators voices were perfect for these characters. They both gave an outstanding performance. Serena Akeroyd has given us an epic love story interwoven amongst the dark world of the five points mafia. Declan was such a wonderful surprise in this book. Who knew he had such a sweet side behind that tough guy persona. His love for Aela is passionate, all consuming and eternal. This audiobook is filled with passion, intrigue and love for family and I loved it.

WOW WHAT A RIDE!!

AUDIBLE EDITION EXCELLENT NARRATION!!

OMG!! Declan and Aela made the perfect Five Points Mafia couple. After being separated for 15 years the two teen lovers are reunited and Declan finds out he has a 14 yr. old son named Seamus. Seamus is a wonderful character. He is very well written. Aela was a badass she took no prisoners. The story was action packed and fast paced. Decland was pure Alpha Male!!

I usually don't like stories where one parent doesn't know they have a kid that is already basically grown up. I like the kid to be under 5 yrs. old in this kind of scenario. But for the way the story is written Seamus had to be written as a teen.

Filthy Dark is my favorite in The Five Points Mob series so far!!

Great story!

I loved all the characters. The characters have mature emotional character. It’s a very balanced story and I would listen to it again.

Another Chance

This story takes a different turn from the previous two books in the series. Secondary characters and hints of their stories are provided in the previous books, so as. Reader I’m anxious to see where this goes.
I did get frustrated with Declan, some of the choices he made..yet also felt for him as he, as a teenager, made some poor decisions. 15 years it takes for a chance meeting and a love he has always had comes back into his life.
I do like that the H and h do act like adults and certainly live Seamus.
Looking forward to that two last brothers stories.
Teddy Ha I,ton and CJ Bloom do a great job.
Loving this author..I will be interested in exploring other series of hers.

My art loving heart swooned!

Teddy Hamilton and C. J. Bloom brings Aela and Declan to life in the best way, their performance was amazing and Serena's writing was perfect as always! I loved this one so much! Its like each book gets better and better! This is a beautiful second chance romance story. Declan is treated so differently by his father because of his love of art and he falls in love with Aela when they are still so young. But thats not all, its not that easy, he is being forced to stay with a wretched girl. Years later Aela comes back and she brings his son with her. They have such a long hard road to get to there happy end but when they do it is amazing. I love their family and how their son is integrated into the family, the interaction and especially certain scenes will have you laughing and crying
