Drowning in the murky waters of the mafia, I’m determined to find a way out.

I have my sights set on becoming a film producer and won’t let anything or anyone stand in my way. Then my mother marries a retired Godfather, and I get the head of the Greek mafia as a stepbrother.

Nikolas Stathoulis is set on ruining my well-laid plans. His ruthless reputation has me running for the safety of my apartment.

But he’s always there. On campus. In my apartment. Expecting me to play by his rules. If only I can ignore his godlike features and stop my heart from doing cartwheels at the sight of him.

Greek God? Pretty much.

But he’s rude, demanding, and hell-bent on making my life a misery.

Two can play this game…right?

From USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Michelle Heard comes a standalone Greek mafia romance.

This book is intended for mature listeners.

I picked this book up as I am going to a book fair and thought I'd read some of the works of authors who are due to attend.

Well, what can I say but that I was totally underwhelmed and, as usual don't understand the 5 * reviews!

Personally, I haven't heard of Greek mafia based in Vancouver and step-siblings allowed to marry in the Greek Orthodox Church, both issues being very doubtful.

The story started off really well. I liked Nikolaus but I do wish authors would delve more into the mafia world if this is what they are writing about, and not only concentrate on the romance.

So far as Tess was concerned, I wanted to know more of her childhood and how her mother met Nikolaus' dad and why he was now the mafia boss.

The romance was good and the tiny bits of drama were fun but not intense. I kept thinking something is about to happen and it didn't 🤔

I suppose this is what happens when you put down an excellently researched book and then pick one up which is simply mediocre.

I won't be continuing with the series and definitely wouldn't recommend it.

Pity.

The narration was good, however, by #KelseyNavarro (although she sounded much older than 21) and #JamesAndersonFoster, who is new to me, was excellent as Nikolaus.

Underwhelmed!

I loved the story up to a point, and at one stage I was stressed when the marriage was arranged. But then she became a killer herself and then for me it did not seem real. I ended not liking either of them as they killed a family member without a second thought. I could not like Tess after this and the change in her to be so cruel.

She became a different person

Nicolas and Tess relationship starts like a typical mafia love story .Tess working hard to finish her degree with one very weak mother not giving her daughter the love and support. Nicholas rules everything around him.

There are crime families in every country so don’t let the comment about Greek mafia deter your imagination.

Eventually the book comes to life, full action and adventure,

In my opinion,…in the series book 2 and 4 had better plot and I enjoyed the book from beginning to end.

Slow beginning

I’m normally into dark mafia (non romantic) books but this had both with a HEA that was just perfect. The entire story hit just the right spot for everything you’d expect from a mafia story yet also covered the sweet tenderness of their tumultuous relationship. I loved how she had a story as well as him and not just a pathetic innocent girl who knew no life before she met her man. Such a good easy listen that I know I will listen to again and again
