Summary

"You’ve got to stop trying to escape me." He chuckles.
"I’m not trying to escape; I’m trying to leave."
"From where I am, it looks like you’re trying to run because you are scared of what you’re going to find out if you stay."

Massimo Domenico Sovrano is arrogant, mean, full of swagger, and oh so hot.
As one of the most feared gangsters in Italy, he can have any woman he sets his sight on.
But for some reason he wants me.
The chemistry between us is off the charts.
So I sleep with him on our very first meeting.
Only, he breaks my heart.
Which is why I lie to him. I tell him I am in love with someone else.
I turn my back on him and decide to focus on my fledgling career as an actress.
Now he's back in my life.
Only problem?
He's engaged to my sister....

Full-length love-to-hate-to-love mafia billionaire stand-alone romance filled with heightened tension, hate-filled looks that turn to longing when the other person is not watching, plus one bossy mafia guy who might stop glowering enough to realize he's hopelessly in love...with the wrong (right!) firecracker of a woman.

Massimo & Olivia

3.75 stars

Massimo and Olivia’s HEA starts with a shteamy ONS encounter. Massimo is very alpha, very smexy and very very Mafia. Olivia has been running from her origins and struggles to come to grips with her past life and the life she always imagined for herself.
If you like overprotective but totally besotted mafiosos and a heroine that cannot tell the difference between being loved and being smothered this is the book for you.
My slight eek with this book was Seb becoming Massimo’s younger brother when he has always been the older and second oldest in the Sovrano siblings.

Mackenzie Cartwright was amazing as Olivia, and as much as I love SebYo, his slight Italian accent when reading Olivia’s parts and saying that is and sounds American was just a no no for me.

Wish the Author had reviewed/edited these things before releasing the audio files. Despite this the book is still a good one

Yeah, yeah she wants to be an actress!!

Right I have to admit that I really did like this book and I truly believe you will too!!

BUT......

I got so fed up on Olivia's constant moaning and griping, about the fact that she wants to carry on acting. I love any woman who wishes to maintain their identity, as well as following her dreams.

However it's all she says on every page, (ok slight exaggeration there!!) Even after she's married and Massimo follows her to London, just so she can carry on chasing her dreams, she's still b*tching about it!!

FFS woman he's not once said that you can't carry on and even though he does everything to ensure your happiness, she's screaming out yet again, "I need my own identity and want to pursue acting!!" Gesü Christo!!!!It

But guess what.....

Seb is no longer the second oldest of all seven, marking him as Massimo's second oldest brother, as he's now....apparently Massimo's younger brother.....did anyone else notice that??

You didn't?? Not to worry and sorry for bringing it up right now, Che Cazzo!! Lol

But if you don't mind Olivia being a moaning ninny, you'll find this book is great. Although truth be told, I'd have preferred more written about Alvaro and made more of an issue and more lethality with the interactions with the Sovrano brothers.

It just didn't grab me as believable if I'm honest!! It felt like the author couldn't really be bothered with him. As either the bad doing and things, OR a really seriously and buy doing more despicable and deplorable things!!

The narration side is by two fantastic narrator's, Sebastian York and Mackenzie Cartwright, whom I've always thoroughly enjoyed listening to them!!

The only issue is that Sebastian kept doing a mild Italian accent, when doing Olivia's voice, even after stating how Massimo thought she was American due to having an American accent!! So that was the only issue as far as their portrayals of each of the characters.

So when it comes to both audio and reading the book, at the same time.....I would truly and completely fully, and without a doubt recommend!! I only gave this four stars due to the slight annoyance of Olivia and the siblings positional line-up 🙈🙉🙈🙉

Mafia Bride

My first book in this series.
I like L. Steele's style and enjoyed listening to the story a lot. The narrators too did a fantastic job.

Massimo and Olivia fit together perfectly. Their story is a whirlwind of drama, action, and full of emotions.

bride

Olivia is determined not to be ruled by her family, she left home to become an actress. She just landed an understudy role in the Beauty and the Beast. She meets Massimo and they have a one night stand.

Olivia is shot during a performance, falls and scars her face. They find out that each are part of Mafia families , when they realise that Massimo is getting engaged to her sister. There is plenty of action. Oh her wonderful brother wants to sell her to an Mexican Mafia family. Action.

I love this series

These characters give so much to us as readers/listeners. With a gripping storyline and so much chemistry between them I was hooked. An absolutely brilliant performance from both Mackenzie and Sebastian.

Awful British and Italian accent

I really tried to listen to this book. I loved the female narration but I can’t understand why SebYo was doing an Italian accent for the women when the women spoke with an American accent. I love him but he can’t do a good English accent.
