Summary

Welcome to Hell, little one。

ALARIC
Monroe was in the wrong place at the wrong time。
I should’ve killed her when I had the chance。
But instead, to make her keep my secrets, I took her freedom and made her my captive。
She swore she’d hate me forever, but that was before I stole her innocence, too。
Now she knows how good my forbidden touch feels, and it won’t take long before she transforms into the broken toy I’ve always wanted。
And after that, there will be no going back…

MONROE
The first time I met Alaric, he fired a bullet into an innocent man’s head。
He’s a hitman。 The worst scum of the planet。 He kills for a living and wrecks lives for fun。
Now he’s my jailor, the only one who holds the key to my gilded cage。
He says he’ll never let me go。 He says he’ll force me to keep his secrets。 He says I’ll kneel for him。 But even he knows I’ll never, ever love a monster。
And Alaric’s the devil himself。

USA Today bestselling authors C。 Hallman and Isabella Starling present Hitman。 This is a full-length, standalone dark mafia romance set in the Black Hearts world。

This Hit man has a surprise for Monroe。Monroe is just trying to make enough money to pay for the home she has her Grams in and keep herself fed。 That's why she works at Purgatory, but when she meets Alaric she can't seem to tell him no even when he thinks its okay to offer her money for sexual favors。 After her encounter with Alaric she can't stop thinking about him and it seems he might be a little obsessed with her。 Not only does Alaric decide to steal Monroe for himself, he also seems to have This Hit man has a surprise for Monroe。Monroe is just trying to make enough money to pay for the home she has her Grams in and keep herself fed。 That's why she works at Purgatory, but when she meets Alaric she can't seem to tell him no even when he thinks its okay to offer her money for sexual favors。 After her encounter with Alaric she can't stop thinking about him and it seems he might be a little obsessed with her。 Not only does Alaric decide to steal Monroe for himself, he also seems to have a little bit of an unusual kink when it comes to s*x。 This is a great read and I highly recommend it! 。。。more

Dark and twisted!Hitman is a very dark and twisted story that will keep you riveted to your seat and shocked at every turn。 Monroe and Alaric’s whirlwind story is not for the faint of heart, it’s thrilling, intense and deliciously sexy (but with some triggering moments)。 These two will take you on a dark and depraved rollercoaster ride that you might not want to get off of! I highly enjoyed it and was thoroughly entertained。

Buyer be ware; this is not for the faint of heart。The story of Alaric and Cassandra is for the dark heart。 There are scenes that will make you question and could be triggers。This world and the characters are unique, flawed and fascinating。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 STARSAlaric and Monroe’s story was fast-paced and highly entertaining。 The chemistry between them was sizzling, which made the sex scenes extra dirty。 Hitman by C。 Hallman & Isabella Starling is a MUST read that will join the ranks of the BIBLIO-ELITE!!!

Quick read with dark tones that are going to made your day。 Love the characters and how they portrayed them as the story has a simplicity yet it has some intense and situations that will have you wondering until the end 。 Highly recommended it。 But just know that is steamy。

This book brings us Alaric and Monroe - two very different character names。 Alaric works for the Lombardi family as a hitman, as they took him in at 16 after the death of his parents。 Monroe works at Purgatory, a bdsm club。 One night, after a kill, Alaric spots Monroe who is desperate for money to pay for her grandmother's nursing home care。 He tells her he will give her money if she goes into one of the rooms with him。 She has never done this before, but she sees this as her way out of debt。 Al This book brings us Alaric and Monroe - two very different character names。 Alaric works for the Lombardi family as a hitman, as they took him in at 16 after the death of his parents。 Monroe works at Purgatory, a bdsm club。 One night, after a kill, Alaric spots Monroe who is desperate for money to pay for her grandmother's nursing home care。 He tells her he will give her money if she goes into one of the rooms with him。 She has never done this before, but she sees this as her way out of debt。 Alaric is not interested in sex, and he isn't interested in a long term relationship, but he can't seem to get Monroe out of his mind。 He follows her, and when she gets herself into trouble, he saves her, but she witnesses him killing some men, so he has to "take her" with him。 Monroe is afraid of Alaric, but also finds him interesting。 She does lie to him, and when he finds out about the lie, he feels terrible。 I'm not into drugging women into sex which Alaric does, so that was a little hard to read, but overall, I enjoyed the book。 I did receive an arc for an honest review。 。。。more

Monroe and Alaric certainly have an unorthodox relationship that works for them。 Underneath it all Alaric seems to care for Monroe。 Its a good read though 。。。more

This book was sinfully delicious。 The intensity, sparks and tension are practically tangible as this story unfolds。 Please keep in mind that this is a dark read。 There is content here that will not appeal to every reader or even be triggers for others。 As for myself, I thoroughly enjoyed Alaric and Monroe's tempting tale of dark and twisted desire。 If you enjoy books that keep you on the edge, deliver massive amounts of heat and believe in pushing boundaries to their limit, you'll love this one。 This book was sinfully delicious。 The intensity, sparks and tension are practically tangible as this story unfolds。 Please keep in mind that this is a dark read。 There is content here that will not appeal to every reader or even be triggers for others。 As for myself, I thoroughly enjoyed Alaric and Monroe's tempting tale of dark and twisted desire。 If you enjoy books that keep you on the edge, deliver massive amounts of heat and believe in pushing boundaries to their limit, you'll love this one。 By my own volition I am posting a frank review。 。。。more

Alaric is a Mafia man, Monroe is a woman that is in the wrong place at the wrong time。 Alaric's kink is consent non-concent, so if that is subject matter that bothers you, be aware this book contains it。 That being said, this book was written really well and has incredible characters。 I especially like the background character Grams, Monroe's grandmother。 This is classic Isabella Starling, which is a co-author in this book。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily lea Alaric is a Mafia man, Monroe is a woman that is in the wrong place at the wrong time。 Alaric's kink is consent non-concent, so if that is subject matter that bothers you, be aware this book contains it。 That being said, this book was written really well and has incredible characters。 I especially like the background character Grams, Monroe's grandmother。 This is classic Isabella Starling, which is a co-author in this book。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

The Hitman is part of the Black Heart Romance books set around Lucien’s club Purgatory。 This can be read as a standalone because the story is all about the couple’s relationship and only has one scene in the club when they first meet。 It is a twisted dark tale that includes kidnapping, murder and sexual kinks that are unusual to say the least but he always looks after her and keeps her safe。 Be aware of the trigger warnings as it might not be your type of book。 This book features one of Lucien’s The Hitman is part of the Black Heart Romance books set around Lucien’s club Purgatory。 This can be read as a standalone because the story is all about the couple’s relationship and only has one scene in the club when they first meet。 It is a twisted dark tale that includes kidnapping, murder and sexual kinks that are unusual to say the least but he always looks after her and keeps her safe。 Be aware of the trigger warnings as it might not be your type of book。 This book features one of Lucien’s barmaids Monroe, who is a young, sweet but naive girl。 She doesn’t partake in the activities of Heaven or Hell but likes working at the club because it pays well and Lucien looks after all his staff。 Alaric is the mob’s hitman, a ruthless killer who lives in the dark。 He enjoys his job, killing gives him power and makes him feel alive。 He has been part of the Lombardi family since he was sixteen and they trained him to work for them。 One evening after a hit, he visits Purgatory and persuades Monroe to accompany him to one of the private rooms。 She has never met anyone like him before so takes the chance as he offers a substantial amount for the service he requires。 He likes how she plays the innocent but knows she too young for him and leaves。 She confused and then frightened when Lucien informs her who the mystery man is connected to。 He doesn’t want to start something with her as far too dangerous for her but he becomes obsessed and intrigued with her。 He is determined to find out her story, what secrets she is hiding and why she needs the money so desperately。 One evening while stalking her, he ends up saving her and taking her home。 He threatens to kill her if she leaves but she shows such strength trying to escape。 Their relationship slowly develops and although they are complete opposites, they are attracted to each other。 He likes all the control and she likes that he takes care of her and makes her feel safe。 She surprised to realise she likes pleasing him and letting him dominate her, never knew that side of herself before。 She had a rough childhood and he hates she still has nightmares over what she went through, which is the first signs of her effect on him。 Alaric hates showing her his true emotions and feelings for her。 It makes him feel weak and vulnerable which he despises。 He is shocked at how all he wants to do is kill and hurt anyone who touches her。I loved how she changes him slowly into someone with feelings and we get to see how he has fallen for her as much as she has for him。He has to keep her away from his work but circumstances become out of his control and they are faced with some interesting situations。 She has to faces the fact that as much as she thinks he likes and cares for her, she is still his prisoner and plaything。 Great twist at the end and an epilogue that sums this couple up so well。 I really like dark books so to me this was an enjoyable quick read that was scary at times and then exciting as you waited to see what was going to happen next。 Plus Alaric was the perfect hitman to me。 。。。more
