Action-packed gangster story

This story is well-written with lots of action - described so well you feel a part of it - and a budding [doomed?] love story thrown into the mix. Aiden Snow is also one of my favourite narrators!

loved it..

I read the book a while back and really enjoyed it so when I saw it on Audible I had to buy it!
Great narration made it even better and I highly recommend this book,my only complaint is that book 2 isn't available on audio yet and this one ends on a massive cliffhanger 😒

The voice!

I loved the narrators voice, for me that was the best part of this story! Dom was brought to life in a way you couldn’t mistake him for anything other than an Alpha! It’s not the kind of mafia romance that I go for and I am not sure I am willing to pay for the second instalment but, you never know!

very fun

book may seem superficial and stereotypical i know, but i love it! i love the story, i love the MCs, i love the authors, i love the narrators, i love it all [heart]. i keep smiling when listening to it on my way to work, and i just had to listen through the whole thing again when it ended so abruptly. the sad thing was that there was only one sex in 6 hours and it finished wayyy too quickly, dom keeps saying stuff suggesting that he's very good at sex but in reality he finished way too soon, the sister interrupting was a huge bummer as they could've moved to the bed and enjoyed themselves through the whole night till morning. all in all, i love it but there was too much on poorly-written mafia storylines, i felt like a lot of stuff like what's going on between chef and little sister was kind of boring

Narrator grows on you

Didn't like the narrator at first but I got used to him. This book is in two halves so it ends on a cliffhanger. Enjoyable listen, but it gets going towards the end.

Uninspiring

Hmm ! How did these esteemed writers (creators of the fantastic The Elite Series) come to pen something so lack lustre? With a dry lack lustre performance by the usual excellent Aiden Snow/Caleb Dickinson? The Elite performed with Christian Fox allowed their characters to spar dramatically and with enjoyable amusing banter allowing the MM relationship to sparkle. Here the single narrator was just monotone and uncharasmatic. The violence, and interractions by two equally unlikeable MCs plus the potential cannibal "Chef" make the tale very sour. There was little background and backstory to formulate our impression of how these men got to be the MCs of this tale. I am not inclined to get Book 2. It's just not that interesting or engaging. Almost 6 hours I will never get back.

By comparison If The Seas Catch Fire by L A Witt (on Audible) fantastically performed by Michael Ferraiuolo shows us the different sides of mafia life where another Domenico comes to terms with the cards dealt in his life. This is an excellent tearjerking fully fledged drama, which I would recommend to anyone who has found themselves reading my review and is seeking a real in depth tale to get their teeth into.

Aiden Snow narrates the excellent: Luca: A Mafia Romance by Sarah Castille (on Audible). An indepth dramatic expose of passion at it's best which I would also recommend.

VERDICT: SADLY DISAPPOINTING AND BLAND

Lack a story

Not that good. Its feels not fully developt as it lacks a worldbuilding and reasonings. The MC's are incomplete as they are generic and just steriotypical with no depth.
