I am wavering between 3 and 3。5 stars。 For Genevieve to be forced into an arranged marriage with Lucien, I thought she would be resistant and combative much longer than she did。 She seemed to cave pretty quickly。 Genevieve continued to that thoughts of rebellion, but her actions didn't really match。 I guess it was understandable since she didn't have many, if any, options。 There were a few sweet, gentle moments between Lucien and Genevieve。The story about the potential war between families, the I am wavering between 3 and 3。5 stars。 For Genevieve to be forced into an arranged marriage with Lucien, I thought she would be resistant and combative much longer than she did。 She seemed to cave pretty quickly。 Genevieve continued to that thoughts of rebellion, but her actions didn't really match。 I guess it was understandable since she didn't have many, if any, options。 There were a few sweet, gentle moments between Lucien and Genevieve。The story about the potential war between families, the intrusion of the cartel, the betrayal, violence, danger, corruption, and family dynamic was much more interesting than Lucien and Genevieve's relationship。 I thought that was boring。I voluntarily read and reviewed the Advanced Reader Copy of this book received via Booksprout。I guess I will go with the 3。5 stars。 。。。more
Lisa A,
It started as an arranged marriage。。。Mob boss Lucian blackmailed Genevieve’s father into a business deal which included marriage to Genevieve and she was not happy。 Betrayal, violence and deception seem to follow her new husband and his family。I received a free copy of this book。 This review was posted voluntarily。

Peggy Henstra,
This was a great story。 Lucian sets up an arranged marriage with Genevieve hoping for a calm and obedient wife。 That is not what he got。 As these two work on their marriage, outside enemies threaten his family and wife。 Receiving a call from Genevieve and hearing her capture, Lucian will stop at nothing to get her back。 This book is fast paced and the tension between these two is amazing。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。

Third book in the King Mafia series with Lucien and his artist bride Genevieve and boy it’s a hot and steamy story, and a little more darker than the first two books。。Lucien is a dark and dangerous man and with Genevieve a wise intuitive innocence they seem to be both well balanced and with all the feels of a mafia story with mystery, suspense, drama, violence as well as the chemistry between Lucien and Genevieve sizzle and with a threat of war coming at the King family from different fronts。。。d Third book in the King Mafia series with Lucien and his artist bride Genevieve and boy it’s a hot and steamy story, and a little more darker than the first two books。。Lucien is a dark and dangerous man and with Genevieve a wise intuitive innocence they seem to be both well balanced and with all the feels of a mafia story with mystery, suspense, drama, violence as well as the chemistry between Lucien and Genevieve sizzle and with a threat of war coming at the King family from different fronts。。。definitely for me made this a hard to put down read。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

Genevieve and Lucian's story begins when her father Angelo betrays an agreement he made with Lucian。 So Lucian calls the debt in but this time he wants his daughter Genevieve as part of the deal along with entrance into the Diamond Dealer's Club。 Angelo is angry because he promised his daughter to another crime family's son Lazaro Vitali and is afraid of the backlash if he doesn't get her。 Genevieve realized that she was nothing but a possession to everyone that her life was never going to be he Genevieve and Lucian's story begins when her father Angelo betrays an agreement he made with Lucian。 So Lucian calls the debt in but this time he wants his daughter Genevieve as part of the deal along with entrance into the Diamond Dealer's Club。 Angelo is angry because he promised his daughter to another crime family's son Lazaro Vitali and is afraid of the backlash if he doesn't get her。 Genevieve realized that she was nothing but a possession to everyone that her life was never going to be her own。 She won't go down without a fight。 She wants to hate him yet as she spends time with him her heart begins to have other ideas。 Their chemistry is undeniable, their connection is intense, it wasn't candlelight dinners and sweet strolls in the park it was dark,dirty, rough and no holds barred。 Lucian is coldhearted, emotionally detached, brutal man yet you see glimpses of a human being especially when Genevieve is in danger。 She brings out a different side of him。 Their journey wasn't easy but nothing worth having comes easy。 I received an ARC from Booksprout for my honest review。 Five dark delicious dangerous ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 。。。more
DD11,
Good story lots of very rough sex。 There are two parts that lowered the star count。 One the first time between them was very questionable about consent。 It almost to me was no consent。 Very big no no。 I also didn’t like the “punishment” scene。 It was more like a beating to me。 The story was good though and the progression of their relationship was good too。 If you can get past the questionable parts you will enjoy。Received a copy from BookSprout。

Jenni,
Genevieve knew her father saw her as a bargaining chip, she never thought the man her father would sell her to for paying his debts would become a man she would learn to care for and respect。 Lucian King was in for a surprise with his sassy new bride, Genevieve could stand on her own yet she came to understand Lucians life and wanted to share in it with him。 Only the King family have enemies willing to take what ever they can and some are closer to home than any could imagine。 this is well writt Genevieve knew her father saw her as a bargaining chip, she never thought the man her father would sell her to for paying his debts would become a man she would learn to care for and respect。 Lucian King was in for a surprise with his sassy new bride, Genevieve could stand on her own yet she came to understand Lucians life and wanted to share in it with him。 Only the King family have enemies willing to take what ever they can and some are closer to home than any could imagine。 this is well written part of the King Brothers series but can be read standalone。 with action, suspense, desires, captive themes and more!I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

A totally captivating third book in this simply breath-taking seriesGenevieve had always known that her father had no time or interest in her, his dis appointment that his only child had been a daughter had been blindingly obvious and he had guarded her anonymity jealously seeing her as a bargaining chip。Lucian King had decided that he was going to take her as his repayment, he was not going to allow her father to marry her off to a monster like the Vitali’s。 She had been nothing like he expecte A totally captivating third book in this simply breath-taking seriesGenevieve had always known that her father had no time or interest in her, his dis appointment that his only child had been a daughter had been blindingly obvious and he had guarded her anonymity jealously seeing her as a bargaining chip。Lucian King had decided that he was going to take her as his repayment, he was not going to allow her father to marry her off to a monster like the Vitali’s。 She had been nothing like he expected she was wise and she could read him like no one ever had, she valued his honesty and did not shy from the horrors of their life and the discipline and killings that sometimes were required。As they both realise that the unimaginable has happened and that the arrangement has become so very much more, Genevieve knows that that she has fallen in love with her husband and cannot envision a life or world without him in it。 Lucian knew that he would protect his beautiful and talented wife with the very last breath in her body。The King family is under attack and they are trying to discover who is behind the threats and attacks, who would have thought that they should have been looking closer to home。I voluntarily received and review an Advanced Reader CopyI thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the great writing。 。。。more
Jo,
This book is part of a series about the King brothers from New Orleans。 It can be read as a standalone but it’s so good, you’ll definitely want to read about the others。 Lucian King is very dominating, dangerous and powerful。 Genevieve is forced to marry him when her father sells her to pay off his debts。 This mafia story has a lot of danger, murder, kidnapping, intrigue and of course hot romance。 This is the second book I’ve read from this series and I can’t wait to read more。 I’m hooked!I rece This book is part of a series about the King brothers from New Orleans。 It can be read as a standalone but it’s so good, you’ll definitely want to read about the others。 Lucian King is very dominating, dangerous and powerful。 Genevieve is forced to marry him when her father sells her to pay off his debts。 This mafia story has a lot of danger, murder, kidnapping, intrigue and of course hot romance。 This is the second book I’ve read from this series and I can’t wait to read more。 I’m hooked!I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more
Elizabeth,
I love this series of books and while Lucian might be darker than Christianity and Michael he is still able to sneak into your heart until, like Genevieve, you fall in love with him。 There are some gruesome scenes in this story but there are more hot, sensuous scenes。 There is a nice balance between Lucian and Genevieve’s story and the King family story and the pace is perfect。 Another great addition to the King family saga。
