Audiobook Review: His Fatal Love
Title: His Fatal Love (West Coast Mobsters Book 3)
Narrator: Michael Ferraiuolo
Thank you to Leighton Greene for providing me a copy of this audiobook in return for an honest review.
Castellani assassin, Julian, the psychopathic younger half-brother of the family Don, has been given permission to look into his mother’s murder from when he was a child. Meanwhile, the second son of the Bernardi Family Don, and their enforcer, Leo “The Lion”, has been charged with seducing Julian with the aim of turning him into a tool for the Bernardi’s. As the two men work to outsmart each other while entertaining all of their desires, feelings start to form, but as their families are enemies how can the situation end in anything but heartache?
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, Michael Ferraiuolo is fantastic at narrating this world that Leighton Greene has created.
Julian intrigued me from when we first met him in “Vow of the Vigilante (Morelli Family book 7)”, and his appearances in the previous two books of this series have been a delight. Needless to say I was impatient to start this audiobook as soon as it was available to me. Learning more about what makes Julian tick has been an emotional journey, and I’m so glad Leo was deserving of him. Their relationship, while bumpy with misunderstandings, was incredibly sweet. The mystery aspect of the book was as twisty as usual, and while I, again, figured out who did it way too early, the who’s and why’s along the way kept me guessing.
Holy heck, one of those spice scenes was way outside my comfort level! I appreciate LG’s ability to cater to a wide range of kinks, but sometimes I’m left shuddering (and not in a good way), this was one of them, even MF’s gorgeous tone couldn’t help.
A captivating addition to the West Coast Mobsters series.
Adults who read darker romances with a mystery element. To avoid spoilers, read the series in order.
