Fantastic

Wow. This storyline keeps on giving!! With so many twists there’s no way I could of predicted what has happened. These characters are great and the way the book unfolds is brilliant. A great performance.

Apples to oranges??

Ok there's a few mistakes of you've read all the books pertaining to "The Seven," but the main one is, that it is Nikolai Solonik's daughter who is married to one of the seven and not his sister....After all there was no sister only a brother!! But you don't meet the brother or hear about him in the aforementioned books!!

There's also the fact that Theresa's scent changes from Apple Blossom to Orange Blossom!!

But let's forget those mistakes and the couple more, as it really doesn't detract from the story!! The one thing that I do argue with is the statement that it's a standalone and no other books need to be read beforehand.

You see, you really do need to read them in order. IF you don't you lose pivotal information, as well as the fact that there is kind of a cliffhanger at the end of each and the following book picks up from that point.

Let's take the end of this book....

It ends with Elsa banging on the door, screaming for help.....

The next book continues with her pounding on the door....

Ergo.....follow on, a continuation of, you get me??

Same with this book. You need to have read the other four books to be able to read this one, or you'll be scratching your head asking questions that wouldn't make sense.

For example

Why did he blackmail Aurora??

Why did he shoot Christian

Who is Xander and why/how did he die!!

And so many more. So trust me when I say, you need to read the books in order.

Regardless this story is great!! Oh did I call hard for Axel!! And what a great love story, but oh boy did Theresa get on my last nerves on the odd occasion!! Yes we get it, you thought you loved Xander and how you knew Axel wasn't Xander and lastly how you still liked to dream that he was Xander come back to you!!

After all of the woe-be-me of A Very Mafia Christmas, book four, I'm kinda over it!! But I know I'm going to be cursed on this as we all know grief affects everyone differently, but when It's a character (and the main female character,) in a book, I'm sorry it just gets a bit much after awhile!! So I am finally grateful once she stood with all the Xander stuff!!

But thankfully it all ends well....Or does it?? Can it??? Will it?? Only one way to know. Buy the book and read it. However if you're like myself, then you'll also buy the audio to go with it!!

I love to listen to the narration as I'm reading my book and the narrator's this time is one of my favourite male narrator's of all time.....

Mr Shane East!!

And reading for the female lead is one I've not come across before now and her name is Rose Dioro!!

Well what can I say about this, that I haven't said before when it comes to Shane?? He is yet again just fantastic. As for Rose, I felt that she was just as good as Shane, but the one thing that did shock me, is the fact that Cassandra is Italian and everybody else has kept the Italian accent, yet Rose decided to give her an American accent instead in her narration!!

Well whatever, both Shane and Rose brought all the characters to life and the pages just seem to go by in a flash. I love it when It's like that, as you know that you was fully immersive in the experience as opposed to counting the pages until the end!!

So why not do as I do and buy both and give yourself over to the real experts, as you listen and read the book you're ready to throw yourself into and enjoy 😏😉

Axel & Theresa

Mafia Crown brings us Axel and Theresa story and what a story it was. Axel came out of nowhere, a long lost brother, Christian and Xander’s triplet and with him also came a ton of intrigue and mystery to add to this already intriguing mafia family. Theresa has been in love with Xander all her life but when Axel shields her from a bullet she can’t deny the complete attraction she feels towards him even when he is in a coma.

This audiobook is full of smut, dirty words and a twist that left me gasping towards the end.

Shane East and Rose Dioro bring Axel and Theresa to life with their brilliant narration.

Mafia Romance

Even though this is book 5 in this series it can be read as a standalone, I’m sure they are all interlinked, however having never read the previous books I didn’t feel out of the loop. An arranged marriage with a twist, a mafia romance with a twist, and a story with a twist. Revenge, betrayal and romance. This book has it all. Jason Clarke narrated alpha Brit Axel perfectly. Wasn’t too keen on Theresa as a characters or the narration, I couldn’t relate to either.
