About this listen

Forevers don’t exist when you’re on the run.

Amelia cannot get attached - not to the town or the people in it. And definitely not to the tall, dark, and handsome mafia prince who sweet-talks his way past her carefully built walls.

Why put yourself through that, knowing it’ll all be ripped away when you leave? And she will have to leave.

This life isn’t hers to keep.

Sam calls her Snow, like the fairy-tale princess. But her life is far from a fairy tale. Even a prince can’t change that.

For Sam Beneventi, there’s a difference between his family and The Family.

He’s been raised to one day take control of The Family, putting that above all else. Strength and power are all that matter.

Weakness isn’t an option. It’s an excuse. And Sam never makes excuses. Until his future walks into his life and blows it up with one single bullet.

When the lost princess stumbles into this mafia prince’s city, all bets are off. And Amelia is all he sees.

To keep her safe, it’s time for Sam to take control. To take the throne. To wear the crown. It’s time for the Rise of the King.

WOW!

Great story line and the narration was perfect. A totally enjoyable book. This book had a lot of characters and sub plots, so many in fact that I lost track, but I usually have more then one book going at a time so that can add to my confusion. Well worth the credit if you are into details, plots and lots of characters.

Principessa + Sam

I do love how he worships the ground she walks on and she is strong enough to stand on her own.
a lot of characters in play, kind of confusing at times.
🌶🌶
male voice was super sexy. Female voice is not my favorite. drags out letters and ends in up tones.

Hooked on this story

I was hooked on this story the moment I started listening. There were so many secrets and twists and turns in Sam and Amelia story. Erin Mallon and Jason Clarke were great at capturing these characters emotions. I can’t wait to check out more form Bella.

Romantic Suspense

Rise Of The King by Bella Matthews
Narrated by Erin Mallon and Jason Clarke

Wow great way to find a new to me author as I try to read/listen to as many books as I can before Indies Invade Philly!

I love romantic suspense novels and this one held so much more. It brought in friendship, family both real and ones we create and hold dear. Throw in mafia familial and we get action, intrigue and death.

No subtle moments here and it’s just the beginning of a series. Colour me happy. The narrators are both amazing and I love them. I have many audiobooks by both and they’re fantastic for this book too!

Intriguing story and great narration

I enjoyed listening to the audiobook of Rise of the King. Jason Clarke and Erin Mallon do an amazing job with the narrations. Their voices are perfect for these characters and give them so much depth and emotion.

Sam and Amelia’s story is intriguing, hawt and filled with a hidden identity and suspense. This is my first Bella Matthews book and I enjoyed her writing and story development.
