Summary

Oran
Lina Schultze is a pawn。
A shiny piece of plastic I’ll use in my plan for revenge。

I’ll seduce her。 Claim her。
Then flaunt my acquisition in front of her ex, Lawrence Wellington—
The man I plan to destroy。

Once my mission is complete, I’ll send Lina packing。

She’ll be the easiest and most … pleasurable part of my vengeance。
Charming her away from a man old enough to be her father won’t be an issue。

And if it comes down to it, I’m not above using force。

Lina
Oran Byrne has made his intentions clear—
He’ll stop at nothing to have me。

But he’s just like every other rich, entitled asshole。
He doesn't know me。
All he sees is a pretty object to be possessed and discarded。

They all underestimate me。

I’ve come back to the Olympus Club for a reason,
And I won’t let anything stop me,
Least of all a smooth-talking criminal with arsenic on his tongue。

If Oran expects me to fall into his open arms,
He’s in for a world of disappointment。


*Vicious Seduction is the fourth book in The Byrne Brothers series。 Each book in the series features a different couple and can be read as a standalone with a happily ever after, but for maximum enjoyment, follow the recommended reading order。 A dark romance with adult themes, Vicious Seduction may not be suitable for sensitive audiences。

A Note from the Author: Rivals to lovers has never been as deliciously seductive as Oran and Lina’s story。 Bold, determined, and ruthless, these two go head-to-head, and the result is explosive in the most delectable way。 Get ready for sexual tension dripping from every captivating page!

For those of you who are new to me, I write what I'd call "mafia lite。" My heroes are hardened criminals with soft spots for their heroines。 There may be violence and cruelty in my books, but never between the main characters。 Enjoy!

This is the last book in the Byrne Brothers series and this one is my favorite。Oran will make you want more, I didn’t want this book to end。Lina has a goal by going to go to the Olympus Club and nothing will hold her back。 She keeps her secrets, and along the way, answers will be given。Oran and Lina are a perfect combination, the chemistry is undeniable。 And now I am excited to see what comes next。 This series may be over, but I’m sure will see more of them in the future。

Highly recommend。 。。。more

DNF 25%。Don't think this author is for me。 I think if we knew why her sister was missing and what she is trying to achieve with Lawrence, that i would actually be more interested。 But I feel like the miscommunication trope will go on for a long time and I'm already frustrated as it is。 DNF 25%。Don't think this author is for me。 I think if we knew why her sister was missing and what she is trying to achieve with Lawrence, that i would actually be more interested。 But I feel like the miscommunication trope will go on for a long time and I'm already frustrated as it is。 。。。more

This book was full of secrets, lies, a few missteps and had me all twisted up, I was captivated from the start。 I was desperate to finish this story and a little sad to get to the end but wowsers what a fantastic book。 。。。more

Book 4 and the final book in the Byrne Brothers series。This installment gives us Lina and Oran’s story。 Fast paced, dark, slow burn deliciousness with plenty of twists and unsuspecting turns to keep me intrigued。Suspenseful and seductive these characters have met their match abs how they get together was not what I imagined!

The last book in the Byrne Brothers series and Oran Byrne is a man on a mission in this dark, slowburn mafia romance。 His target is the wealthy Lawrence Wellington, on the surface a successful businessman but underneath is something dark。 When he sees Wellington with Lina he sees a way of doing it。 But what starts out as revenge against the man he holds responsible for the death of a young girl soon becomes more when he learns of a depraved secret society hidden in plain sight within the elite c The last book in the Byrne Brothers series and Oran Byrne is a man on a mission in this dark, slowburn mafia romance。 His target is the wealthy Lawrence Wellington, on the surface a successful businessman but underneath is something dark。 When he sees Wellington with Lina he sees a way of doing it。 But what starts out as revenge against the man he holds responsible for the death of a young girl soon becomes more when he learns of a depraved secret society hidden in plain sight within the elite club Olympus。 With plenty of tension between the hero and heroine, even though the romance is slowburn, the overall story moves at a fast pace as the plot unfolds。 They both have trust issues, but their main problem is a lack of communication。 Oran is a bit of damaged character with some guilt after his estranged wife was responsible for his father’s death。 Even though theirs wasn’t a love match he hadn’t seen the evil in her so when he looks at Lina, he initially assumes sees a younger woman out with an older man for his money。 Lina has her own agenda for dating Lawrence Wellington。 She’s desperately looking for her younger sister but after already being betrayed by her mother she doesn’t know if she can dare trust Oran with her secrets。 After Noemi and Connor’s story this is my favourite book in the series although I am a little upset that we haven’t had Shae’s story especially after she was last heard of keeping company with a mysterious Irish man。 。。。more

end of an era!It’s time for the final Bryne Brother and I was the most curious about Oran because of his past。 In past books, we see how he is betrayed in the worst way by his soon to be ex wife so to say that he is jagged is an understatement。 He begins to second guess his gut instincts especially when he meets Lina。 Lina is looking for answers in dangerous places。 She is willing to risk her safety for any sort of information that will bring her closer to serving our revenge。 She was making goo end of an era!It’s time for the final Bryne Brother and I was the most curious about Oran because of his past。 In past books, we see how he is betrayed in the worst way by his soon to be ex wife so to say that he is jagged is an understatement。 He begins to second guess his gut instincts especially when he meets Lina。 Lina is looking for answers in dangerous places。 She is willing to risk her safety for any sort of information that will bring her closer to serving our revenge。 She was making good headway until Oran blackmails her so she will pretend to be his fiancée。 Their story was filled with tragedy, gut wrenching confessions and mutual enemies。 Oran does his best to keep his feelings separate from the task at hand but the more he gets to know Lina, the harder it is。 I loved seeing the natural change in him, especially when he lets his protective alpha side out and begins to seek vengeance against all of her demons。 Jill does SUCH a great job telling their story along with the romantic suspense aspect in it that kept my heart pumping until they got to their well deserved HEA。 I loved seeing the other characters come in and embrace Lina the way I knew they would。 I’m going to miss this family but so excited to see what is next。 。。。more

What an ending!
