Summary

Sold to one man. Forced to marry a monster.

Today, I become a mafia bride.

My father’s sold me into marriage for the good of the family. In the back of the limo, next to my Daddy, I promise myself I’m going to do everything I can to be a good wife. It’s what I was raised for.

But the driver takes a wrong turn, stops the car, pulls a gun on Daddy and says, “Your daughter is mine. Get out.”

From then on, I am Dario Lucari’s prisoner.

He's both beautiful monster and cruel angel, and no matter what he makes me do, he will not rest until he has taken his revenge on my father.

Suddenly thrust into a world of betrayal, lies, and deviance, all I have to do to escape is betray everything I’ve ever loved, and try not to love the man I must destroy.

Mafia Thriller

Take me, Manhattan Mafia #1 by CD Reiss
Narration by Erin Mallon and Teddy Hamilton.

This series has three all-stars so I knew it was going to be an amazing start to the series and hearing it, it checks off so many boxes.

Mafia world ✅ virgin bride✅
Alpha badass✅ deception and questions ✅✅

Sarah is a Colloanian, on her way to her arranged marriage. One she’s been groomed for all her life but she’s taken on the way to the church.

There’s so much happening. Who can Sarah depend upon to survive all she’s been thrown into.

Dario is brutal at the start, the kind of alpha a-hole everyone loves to hate. But Sarah is resigned to accept her fate for now. Until she can escape back home.

Yet there is deception and twists that will have you questioning who is friend and who is foe.

There definitely heat between Sarah and Dario and he opens up somewhat to her, so she opens her eyes to the Collonians she swore would save her, only to be disillusioned by her family and with it she questions her life so far.

Just when she starts building trust in Dario. There’s a huge what the hell that happens with a cliffhanger that left me seeking the next book now!

I have missed hearing the talented Erin Mallon. She is amazing here. Bringing out the innocence of Sarah while showing us her resilience and strength as she tries to come to terms with the direction her life has taken. I really love her ease of switching characters from male to female with care for showing us each character so that we feel like we’re right there with them.

Teddy’s voice is also one that I love. He’s got the attitude and chalkiness of Dario hands down. I’m just not sure if I like Dario at this point but love when a character redeems themselves which I believe he will do in the future books.

CD Reiss’ dark romance will make you think long after it’s done.

Sarah lives to be obedient. In her secretive, cloistered crime family, women are raised to serve the men in their lives- husbands, fathers, brothers. Cut off from a normal education and confined to their own churches, schools, and homes, they are married off young and know nothing of the outside world.

Sarah is on her way to an arranged marriage, just like every woman in her family. Fate hands her a blessing and a curse: Dario.

Dario wants revenge, and the best way to do it is to kidnap Sarah. Taken from her father’s limo, Sarah is literally stolen by Dario. Through manipulation and deprivation, Sarah succumbs to Dario’s demands. She is forcibly married to him while her family is made to watch.

Dario seems beyond redemption. Hell-bent on destruction, he is cruel and dismissive toward his new bride. Sarah is also in for a rude indoctrination as the truth about her previously sheltered existence becomes clearer by the day. Her family’s casual and intentional cruelty becomes more and more obviously sinister to her as Dario refuses to let her look away from the truth.

Dario won’t let Sarah remain ignorant to the truth, but her genuine strength and goodness may be his undoing. Even though Dario begins to have feelings for Sarah, he won’t be deterred from his mission: Bring down her family at any cost.

This is book 1 of this series. It’s truly an excellent listen. Erin Mallon and Teddy Hamilton breathe life into CD Reiss’ characters. Could not stop listening to this book.

Wow

This one looked intriguing and oh boy was I right that it was going to be good. There are so many twists and so many lies to unravel. Each time I thought I knew which way the book was going to go it changed and I just loved it so much. This was just a fantastic read and the narrators gave so much more depth to the story

Take Me

I was so angry for this young lady for not fighting back, yet she was taught not to. And I may not agree with the way the Author used BDSM but the story was very good. The more the story goes along the more you will understand.

Fantastic narration by both
Narrators!

Not what I expected

I probably should’ve looking into this more before I started, but the FMC is very naive and innocent having essentially been raised in a patriarchal cult cut off from the rest of society. This is pretty much the opposite of what I look for in a heroine.

Narration: I love both of these narrators, but I’m too use to Teddy Hamilton in the good guy role that I couldn’t believe I him as a dominating mafia boss.
