Publisher's summary

Pleasure has never been so deadly.

Rose Cassidy doesn’t truly live; she just exists. Numbing herself to fear and pain is the only way she can survive in this cruel world. So when she’s taken as collateral by the notorious Danny Black in a deadly game of power, she’s thrown by the deep fear she feels rising within her. And, worse than fear, a profound desire. She’s heard tales of The Brit. He’s callous. Coldblooded. But no one ever said he was wickedly beautiful and darkly captivating. He sees past her mask, giving her a cruel sense of hope. But she must fight their twisted attraction or risk losing the one thing she survives for.

When Danny Black took an enemy’s beautiful lover as security, he never anticipated the repercussions. Or the warped attraction they would share. Rose Cassidy pushes Danny to the brink of madness with her impenetrable façade and savage allure. He has to remind himself that she’s bait. A solution to a problem. Yet she evokes powerful feelings in Danny, and feelings are risky when you’re wanted dead by endless enemies. The most dangerous game is about to be played. But can either of them win?

*This story is gritty, dark, edgy, and contains scenes that some people may find uncomfortable to listen. It is NOT for the fainthearted.

What will I do now?

This story has completely entranced me. It has been in my thoughts and even in my dreams for two days. The story is brilliant as are the performances by the narrators. It’s a beautiful match between the characters and the narrators. I highly recommend this audiobook!

Fantastic!!!

This is honestly, one of the BEST audiobooks I’ve ever listened to, and I’ve listened to a LOT.

It’s exciting, lovely, dramatic, suspenseful, surprising, sad, and everything in between.

I HIGHLY recommend this book. I know it’ll be one of only two books I listen to again and again.

Raw, gritty & emotional. Great story & narration

I’m a huge Jodi Ellen Malpas fan and when I read that she was releasing a Mafia romance I was a little unsure as it is not a genre that I normally read. However having said that I found this book to be well written and I quickly became invested in the story.
This is a gripping, raw and dark book about Danny Black, a man who is easy to hate and yet he got to me on a number of levels which shouldn't be a surprise given Ms. Malpas past heroes. Rose Cassidy is a pawn and is taken to capture the attention of the mayor who owes Danny.
Shane East and Vanessa Edwin did an outstanding job with this raw and gritty story and their performances were spot on.
However Rose is perceptive and sees under the unemotional, cold and brooding mask that Danny shows the world to the man despite herself she is attracted to. Rose was such a strong woman and not afraid to stand up for herself which I admire. The chemistry between them is crazy and impossible to ignore. The twists and turns only added additional layers to this complex book as did the secrets and lies.
Can Rose convince Danny that he is so much more than what he thinks he is? Can she bring light and love into his dark world and make him feel again?
One click and find out.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

This was the first book I’ve ever read from this author and I absolutely loved it! The character development is phenomenal. I was hooked from the first page and never lost interest. The performance is outstanding, I have listened to many books narrated by Shane East and this one has to be one of his top performances ever! Vanessa Edwin was incredible too. I’m so glad I got this book!

Stayed up all night to listen!

Loved this book- and loved the performance. I was secretly rooting for them the whole way. Steam doesn’t start until the second half.
