About this listen
Rome Armanelli is supposed to be a monster—an enforcer for the strongest family in the Italian Mafia.
Yet, when I saw him take a man’s life, he did it to save mine. Since then, Rome doesn't want me anywhere near him. Sparks may fly when we're in the same room, but his famiglia is all he cares about.
He tells me to leave, but he, of all people, should know—the Mafia doesn't let anyone go. Blood, ties, and partnerships sink their claws in. And when we find out exactly why his family kept me around, there's no turning back.
I have to trust someone to survive now. So, I choose him, the man with a stare as cold as ice but a touch that sets me on fire.
I'm about to hand my heart to a monster. Let’s see if he’ll rip it apart.

Story
Running away from home at 17 wasn't easy. Let's face it, though, nothing before or in the ten years since has ever been easy for me. And I'm doing okay—sorta. I just need to keep scraping by, living under the radar. Staying out of people's way, off people's minds. When a man walks through my open patio door, stepping boldly into my home and my life, I should be scared, frightened, terrified. I must be more broken than I realized because I'm none of those things. I'm intrigued—and I'm wondering if the way to take control of my life is by giving in to him.

From a poor underground street fighter, I rose to fame as the world heavyweight boxing champion. No one knew I was also a monster who hunted in the shadows. Trapped in the mafia until my debts were paid. A simple deal held my freedom—unify my belts. It seemed simple until an enchanting British firecracker landed on my lap, knocking me sideways. Wanting her was dangerous for us both, but I took her anyway. Leaving me with the choice, fight for my freedom or hers. When the truth is unmasked, could she still love me? Would love be enough to battle our demons and come out on top?

I never wanted a wife. No one is safe with me. No one is good enough for my daughter. But if I want to rule over the wealthiest crime family in New York City, I only have two weeks to find one. When Elsie broke into my home, I saw an opportunity, so I forced her into a marriage she didn't want. No one crosses me, not even someone as beautiful as Elsie. She may fight me with that smart mouth, but she will obey me–or return to the hell she came from. I told her she was mine for a year. Then she'd be free.

The NHL’s been at my door since I was 18, but I’d never leave the Swedish Hockey League—not while raising my little brother. But now he’s grown, and the Carolina Reapers show up with my greatest weakness: Langley Pierce, their new head of PR. I’ve never been able to say no to her. She’s fierce, independent, and the sexiest woman I’ve ever met. She also has a stubborn streak wider than my entire country. One comment from her smart mouth about never dating again, and I propose. No, really, I actually propose.

But when her cousin dies and leaves her with a long-as-hell and sexy bucket list, Kit turns to me for a helping hand. What can I say? I’m a sucker for a woman in need. Besides, I’m not about to let another man steal away my girl, occupy her bed, or fill my shoes.

Monsters don't hide in dark alleys. They lurk in plain sight, clawing into your soul with cordial smiles. They wear Armani, they drive Cadillacs, they attend fundraising balls... And they rule the city with a merciless fist. The Familia is a mystery to most, and sitting on its throne is Kage Malvagio. Vile. Sadistic. Painstakingly beautiful. Some say: Ask for forgiveness, never permission. Kage asks for neither—especially when he gets his hands on me. I should hate him. I should run at the first chance I get. But how could the devil be so bad when he looks at me like that?

Arrogant bosshole with some dirty secrets. Sounds tempting, right? Wrong. Kirill Zaitsev is anything but tempting. Sure, he’s tall and broad and muscular in all the right places. And sure, he’s richer than several small countries. And yes, fine, his eyes do make me feel loopy, and he does smell like mint and musk, and there’s also the way his jaw clenches when he… Sorry, where was I? Oh yeah. Bosshole. Dirty secrets. Anyway, all those things sound fine and dandy. For a little while, I thought so, too. Then I learned who Kirill really is—a killer, a tycoon, a mafia don.

When I took over my late father's biker bar, I also took over the payments he was making to Savva, the leader of a powerful mafia family operating on the edge of Las Vegas. But Savva couldn't be satisfied with money alone. He wanted more. He spilled into my life like a dark, inescapable shadow, stealing my dignity and drowning me in his sin. But his twisted promises and dark desires aren't enough to convince me to fall for him. Neither are his whiskey kisses and his iron abs.

My adoptive parents came over to my apartment for dinner, just like they do every week. But this time, they brought bombshells. They tell me I'm not who they said I was. And all those dance lessons, those etiquette classes? They weren't just for show. They were to groom me. To mold me into what I'm about to become—the forced wife of a don. Then, with my jaw on the floor, they opened the door and let the nightmares in.

I didn't expect a Russian mafia boss like him to be gentle with me...and he wasn't. Not when he spanked me for daring to wear panties under the dress he chose for me, and certainly not when he stripped me out of that same dress and made me scream in his bed.

My mother trained me to be numb. To keep my volatile emotions carefully locked away. But when my drug-addicted stepfather decides to clear his debt by offering my sister to the Ruthless Mafia Men that run our city, I have no choice but to react. Keeping her safe is the only thing I've ever been good at. And, unlike her, I've already been scarred by the cruelties of our world. So I did the only thing I could do, the only thing that would ensure that they'd never go looking for her. I offered myself to big bad wolves instead.

Dark and dangerous
I recently purchased the audiobook for Heart of a Monster, and it’s safe to say that I’ll be grabbing book two just as well. Shain Rose has written an all-new mafia duet to capture every dark reader’s attention.
Book one in A New Reign Mafia duet is an enemies-to-lovers romance filled with violence and mayhem. Rome is the enforcer, a hardened man with a soft spot for the broken girl who has been dealt a bad hand. Katie may appear soft and kind at first hand but don’t be fooled, this woman is as headstrong and ferocious as her counterpart. It has taken years to act on their love. When secrets are unveiled and the truth comes to light, I’m not so sure love will be enough to keep them together.
I enjoyed listening to Heart of a Monster and realized my love for Marcio Catalano’s work grows with each narration I listen to. His distinct voice is seductive as the characters described in each book. This man’s talent shines bright and you can always expect him to deliver a high-caliber performance.
This was my first time listening to Joy Beharie and was amazed by her talent and skill. Her tone and emotions were on point every time.
I’m looking forward to hearing more from this duo. Now it’s time to grab the next installment, Love of a Queen.

The story was good, but the performance made the series. Mr. Catalano & Ms. Beharie are at the top of my list of favorite narrators. Shain Rose is an author I'd read anytime. Well worth the credit.

It's worth a listen but won't be in your top 10
I enjoyed this story and didn't think twice to use credit on book 2.
The male narrator does a good job with the characters though he made Cade's voice sound immature. Since Corrupted Chaos was my first love of the series, that threw me off a little. I struggled to get used to the female narration. Her voice did not match the female lead's age and I had to listen on .85 to understand due to the lack of natural pauses.
The spice in this book is plenty, however, it does become redundant, I had expected more variety after reading Corrupted Chaos.
Overall a fun listen if you like Mafia Romances / darker themes.

I love the story and the male voice! The female voice was good too but, she seemed to skip over paragraphs and change a lot of the wording.

MFC Annoying
Good performance. MFC was annoying and she also lacked critical thinking. Made decisions that were frustrating. Already got 2nd book before finishing & now I am second guessing doing that. I will read & hopefully the character will redeem herself.

Ends on a cliffhanger
I'm not sure what the author was trying to accomplish here. The MFC was supposed to be strong, having endured some awful situations. But her decision making didn't match that of a survivor. She was also a brat who had little to no situational awareness. I didn't notice that this was part one, and the synopsis didn't mention that this would end on a cliffhanger. While I really wanted to like this, I don't care enough to buy the second book.

made her a black jezabel stereotype
the writer is a good writer. however she made the lead female a black jezabel stereotype. this is my book by this author. I bought this bwwm because it was written by a black woman and I expect her to write an black woman with a lot more nuance and complexity than what she did. I am extremely angry about this.
