Guys, I've had the great pleasure of reading a very early copy of Twisted Promises by Lilian Harris, and when I say you don't want to miss out on this mafia romance I mean it. It's sexy and dangerous, and it has all the twists and turns that I love about Harris' writing. Read on for more info. 



Lilian Harris has revealed the covers and blurb for Twisted Promises, book 3 in the Messina crime family series, which can be read as a standalone.

“It’s been a while since I've threatened to kill you.” -Iseult (ee-salt)
“Damn, bambina, I love it when you talk dirty to me.” -Gio

🥵 Mafia
🥵 Forbidden (sister's fiance)
🥵 Reverse Grumpy/Sunshine
🥵 Secret Identities
🥵 Female Mob Enforcer
🥵 Touch Her & D!e
🥵 Possessive & Obsessed Hero
🥵 Frienemies to Lovers
🥵 He Falls First
🥵 All the Banter

𝗕𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗯:
I hate everything about him. I hate his smile. I hate his laugh, and most of all, I hate how he makes me feel—so completely alive with every forbidden kiss.

Gio is the son of the Italian Mafia and I’m an Irish Mob princess.
An assassin who swore her life to the cause.

We were never meant to find each other.

But one night changed everything. I was about to end his life, while he was about to end mine.

Instead, we found ourselves in bed hashing out a lot more than our differences.

I disappeared after that. I couldn’t let him get under my skin. I couldn’t let him figure out my secrets.

But he found me and refuses to let me go, reminding me why I crave him.

The only problem is, he’s set to marry my sister.

Cruel Beginnings by Lili St. Germain and Lyra Parish is out now, and it's dark with some seriously taboo subjects but oh so good. Check out my review here and keep reading for the blurb and links. 


I’m not a girl who expects to be saved.
I gave up on fairytales a long time ago.
So when my knight in shining Armani stalks into town and delivers me from my tragic fate, I’m
 grateful.

Darius Prince shouldn’t be in the seedy strip club where I’m paying off my mother’s debts, one piece of my soul at a time. And he definitely shouldn’t be the one who claims me in exchange for a suitcase full of trust fund cash and a deal inked in blood.

His dark eyes shine with a hatred so deadly, I wonder why he wants me at all.
Especially when I find out he thinks I’m somehow connected to his twin sister’s disappearance.

Darius doesn’t rescue me.
Instead, he drags me into his web of tragic secrets and forbidden desires.
He binds me so tight, I can’t find my way out of his grasp.
Not that it would make a difference.
Escaping my fate isn’t an option

I never wanted a wife. No one is safe with me. No one is good enough for my daughter.

But if I want to rule over the wealthiest crime family in New York City, I only have two weeks to find one.

When Elsie broke into my home, I saw an opportunity, so I forced her into a marriage she didn't want.

No one crosses me, not even someone as beautiful as Elsie. She may fight me with that smart mouth, but she will obey me–or return to the hell she came from.
I told her she was mine for a year. Then she'd be free.

But the more I see them together, my daughter and my wife, the more she touches me like I'm worthy, the more I start to wonder, could she be mine?

But when war lands at our feet, when her life’s in jeopardy, I realize I was right all along.

No one is safe with a man like me. Least of all her.

Authors Piper Rayne are branching off into darker territory with their books under the name P. Rayne, and here's their first book!

 

Beautifully Scarred by P. Rayne is now live!

Lilah

Growing up, all we had was each other.

Jimmy's always been the one who protected me—at any cost. I was content to let him clean up my messes. And when he kept his promise to get us out of our hometown and living the lives we always dreamed of, I was happy to pretend everything would be okay... for a while.

While Jimmy was able to leave the past behind, mine felt like a tattoo I could never scrub clean.

Jimmy thinks he can fix me—he tries, and tries, and tries.

Sometimes love isn't enough to heal all the wounds from the past. Sometimes even your savior thinks you're not worth saving.

And he'd be right... until everything changed.

Jimmy

I've loved Lilah for as long as I can remember.

And for as long as I can remember, she's pushed down the traumas of her past until they became poison running through her veins, infecting everything she touched.

Watching the woman you love destroy herself piece by piece is the slowest, most painful form of torture I know.

Giving her up may be the only way to save her. But how do I just walk away from the one person I love most in this life?

“Can we play some music, Daddy?” Sophia asks. “Like always?”
“Sure, princess. Let me get my cell out.”
“Daddy and me always play music when we make stuff together,” she explains. “Do you wanna pick a song Elsie?”
“Ahhh…” She swallows, tugging her brows, biting her lower lip as her eyes land to mine. She appears as though she’s about to burst into tears.
But why?
“How about we leave Elsie alone, okay princess?”
“No.” Elsie shakes her head. “I—I want to. Pick a song, if that’s okay. I don’t even know if they still have it, it’s—ahh…” Her eyes swell with tears, brimming around her lower lashes. “It’s been a long time since I’ve heard it.”
It’s then I foolishly realize that wherever she’d been, there was no music there at all.
I drop everything, going to her until I’m right in front, grabbing her hand in mine. “Tell me the name of the song, and I will find it for you.”
Her chin trembles a little as she clings her eyes to mine, and I could tell how badly she’s trying to keep herself from falling apart. My hand slides to her face, a finger forcing all that beautiful black hair away from her brows. And I’m doing it again, touching her like she matters. Her mouth parts, a breath stilling in her lungs as she inhales.
“‘I Won’t Give Up,’” she says. “By Jason Mraz.”
My hand falls to my pocket, and without separating from her gaze, I fire up the music app and speak the name of the song. Pressing play, the melody slips into the air and her soft smile grows.
“Thank you.” She sighs. And I almost want to kiss her. Too close to doing it.
“I’d ask you for a dance...” I trace my knuckles across the underside of her jaw. “But I’m about to burn our dinner…” My lips quirk up. “And the last thing I want is for my future wife to think I’m a bad cook.”
Her laugh is small, but what it does to my heart is damn right huge.

Luca is finally out! It's the seventh and last book in the series, and I'm so sad this set of books is over. I mean Winners has already started the next series and yes, I'm enjoying it, but Belles and Mobsters is the one that got me started on her books. I fell in love with it from the first book, and I'm going to miss it. Anyway, if you've been reading this series, then you already know that Luca's story is a must read. (Here's my review of it.) If you haven't, then I recommend starting with Luciano. It's the first in the series and oh-so good. (Check out my review of Luciano here.) 




Title: Luca
Series: Belles & Mobsters #7
Author: Eva Winners
Genre: Steamy Mafia Romance
Release Date: December 1, 2022


BLURB

Luca King.
The notorious playboy.
A master of one night stands.
My constant shadow.

Wherever I went, he was always there. Until he wasn’t. One wild night at a masquerade party was all it took. I got pregnant, broke my engagement, and failed my family.

The worst part.

I had no idea who the father of my baby was. I had only one clue. A Prince Albert piercing. Not exactly a smoking gun.

My parents disowned me after I refused to marry the prospects they presented. It wasn’t my fault I became gun shy. The last four men I met ended up dead. It was safer to have this baby on my own.

Our world was a dangerous one. And without the protection of my family... I was running out of time.

So it left me with no choice but to disappear, leaving no trace of where I went.

That was until Luca King found me at my lowest.

Maybe I should have tried harder to stay hidden because he would surely be my destruction.

Eva Winner's newest book in her Belles and Mobsters series is out now, and all I can say is that if you love mafia romance like I love mafia romance, then you NEED to read this book. Sasha is every bit the nutjob the previous books made him out to be, but he's so much more, too. This is definitely my new favorite mafia romance. It's that good. See my full review here.




Title: Sasha
Series: Belles & Mobsters #6
Author: Eva Winners
Genre: Steamy Mafia Romance
Release Date: November 1, 2022


BLURB

Sasha Nikolaev.
The unhinged mobster.
Satan’s spawn with pale blue eyes.

I made him a promise years ago. Granted, I only made it so he’d kiss me. But it was a promise made nonetheless. So I waited.

And waited some more.

He never came back to collect. So I moved on.

Never would I have ever thought I'd see him the day I walked down the aisle.

Except there he was, waiting for me in the pews.

Sasha Nikolaev.

When he snatched me in the middle of the ceremony, for the whole world to see, shit hit the fan.

He claimed I had a debt to pay.

My family promised retribution. My fiancé did the same.

And now, nothing will ever be the same.

The newest book in Eva Winners' Belles and Mobsters series is here, and it's everything I needed it to be. It's very dark, but then Raphael and Sailor together are sweet, too. I loved this book and can't wait for Sasha's next. Check out my full review here




Title: Raphael
Series: Belles & Mobsters #5
Author: Eva Winners
Genre: Steamy Mafia Romance
Release Date: September 1, 2022


BLURB

Raphael Santos.
A criminal.
The devil.

The man was definitely suave and charismatic.
The way he looked at me made me shiver but his eyes rattled something deep inside me.

I hated him with every fiber of my being. His family destroyed mine. His father started a chain reaction that could never be undone. The Santos family ruled the underworld of Florida. They were powerful, vicious, and ruthless. Mine had once ruled D.C.

He may have secrets, but I have secrets of my own. An innocent boy who I’ll protect with my dying breath. My son.

Raphael devises a plan to get what we both want, and without any other options, I reluctantly agree. Even if I know there will be consequences regardless of the outcome.

But in his darkness, a fire burns brighter. Passion grows hotter. Love grows stronger.

Now, we have no choice but to finish this. Together.
