Publisher's summary

When he decided he wanted me, he took me.

Treating a mobster shot by a rival’s goons isn’t really my forte, but when a man is powerful enough to have a whole wing of a hospital cleared out for his protection, you do as you’re told.

To make matters worse, this isn’t first time I’ve met Giovanni Calduchi. It turns out my newest patient is the stern, sexy brute who all but dragged me back to his hotel room a couple of nights ago so he could use my body as he pleased, then showed up at my house the next day, stripped me bare, and spanked me until I was begging him to take me even more roughly and shamefully.

Now, with his enemies likely to be coming after me in order to get to him, all I can do is hope he’s as good at keeping me safe as he is at keeping me blushing, sore, and thoroughly satisfied.

Awesome mafia crime story.

You know that when Piper Stone writes a mafia crime story it will have backstabbing, action, mystery, spankings, explosive love scenes,males that will die protecting their mates, unexpected outccomes, and in this case a hidden secret. All of these create a captivating story.Thomas Locklear is a master storyteller who will immediately capture your attention. I highly recommend this Audible book.

2.5 Stars

I listened to the audio book. The narration wasn't bad. The narrator had a moment of two when he spoke in the female lead's voice when it was Gio speaking. That have me pause, but it wasn't completely distracting.

I don't know the female lead's first name, or I should say that I don't know how to pronounce it. I'll refer to her as Minx. That is the name Gio used.

Gio was a mafia don. Had no expectations of him being gentle or soft or romantic. Minx was just crazy. This woman blew not and cold. She alternated between wanting to hit Gio, and craving him sexually.

I didn't really get if Minx had a secret about her past, or if she blocked out information about her past. I

I think there was a fairly interesting back story about a mile infiltrating Gio's organization, but it was overshadowed by the craziness of Oof and Goofy. I would give this book 2.5 stars.

I was sucked in...

Once this story took off, I was completely drawn in and listened through for hours. Time flew by. If you like dark mafia romance, you’ll like this one. The female lead is strong and smart, a capable foil for the alpha make lead. Great narration moves this story along nicely.

Can’t handle female voice(But got over it!)

Uhg I’m bumming right now! I think this book could be exactly what I want but I seriously can’t get over the narrators female voice. The male voice could be deeper too but I could live with it. I’m sure it’s hard for a guy to do a convincing female voice but this is ridiculous. It’s breathy and “fake girly”. Unfortunately it makes everything read kind of silly and vaguely embarrassing, at least for me. Makes me want to cover my face with my hand. I think I’m going to try this book again when I can read it for myself.

Edit*
You know what? I take it back, I love this book! I waited awhile and gave it another shot. I remember the “girl” voice making my teeth hurt but I guess I got over it! Def worth the credit, I would buy it again! My advice is don’t start this book strait after listening to a good dual narration book. Wait a bit and start fresh. It may take a few min to get used to but once you let yourself get into the story, no problem! Talk about a sexy HOT steamy dominant alpha male story! By a few chapters in I cared very little about the narration 😏😉❗️
