Summary

Pleasure has never been so deadly。

Rose Cassidy doesn’t truly live; she just exists。 Numbing herself to fear and pain is the only way she can survive in this cruel world。 So when she’s taken as collateral by the notorious Danny Black in a deadly game of power, she’s thrown by the deep fear she feels rising within her。 And, worse than fear, a profound desire。 She’s heard tales of The Brit。 He’s callous。 Coldblooded。 But no one ever said he was wickedly beautiful and darkly captivating。 He sees past her mask, giving her a cruel sense of hope。 But she must fight their twisted attraction or risk losing the one thing she survives for。

When Danny Black took an enemy’s beautiful lover as security, he never anticipated the repercussions。 Or the warped attraction they would share。 Rose Cassidy pushes Danny to the brink of madness with her impenetrable façade and savage allure。 He has to remind himself that she’s bait。 A solution to a problem。 Yet she evokes powerful feelings in Danny, and feelings are risky when you’re wanted dead by endless enemies。

The most dangerous game is about to be played。

But can either of them win?

*This story is gritty, dark, edgy, and contains scenes that some people may find uncomfortable to read。 It is NOT for the fainthearted。

Mafia Jodi Style This is a first in this genre by Jodi , but as usual Jodi has done it again。 Twists and turns , from violent gun toting thugs, to the most loving, tender and downright hot love scenes。 The ending , what can you say brilliant 。 Another 5 star read , join Danny and Rose on their epic journey

Wow。 Unexpected。 Dramatic。 Emotional。 Epic。 A thrilling read with drama, suspense and heart。

Ong what a roller coaster of emotions。 Dont think I've cried at a book in a long time。 I've read mafia style books before and loved them and did wonder what The Brit would be like in comparison to previous ones I've read but OMG this was 100 times better than any other book I've read。 Danny is firmly #1 on my alpha list。 Jodi you've done it again, absolutely nailed it, going back in for a re read Ong what a roller coaster of emotions。 Dont think I've cried at a book in a long time。 I've read mafia style books before and loved them and did wonder what The Brit would be like in comparison to previous ones I've read but OMG this was 100 times better than any other book I've read。 Danny is firmly #1 on my alpha list。 Jodi you've done it again, absolutely nailed it, going back in for a re read 。。。more

JEM does it again!Wow。。。。。 I completely devoured this book in one sitting talk about unputdownable! I never wanted it to end。 I could read Jodi’s words forever, another fabulous read to add to her collection and she’s now given us a new alpha to rival Jesse Ward (I didn’t think that I would ever write those words)。 Do not even hesitate to read this, let her take you on a mafia high, I think I’m still coming down。。。。 Bravo Jodi, queen of the alphas 😘

The BritWow! This was the best surprise ever! Dark and dangerous but sexy and intense all at the same time。 This book had all the feels and some。 Every page had me wanting more of Danny and Rose。 They are the true definition of Ride-or-die。 Highly recommend!

He’s got a filthy mouth and a dirty mind, but that’s what we like, right! Imagine Theo, but 10x more dangerous。 He’s easily up there with some of my favourites JEM alphas💃🏼Rose Cassidy is 100% a fighter。 A survivor, not just a victim。 My heart bled for her multiple times throughout the book, her struggles and trauma laid bare for us all to see and read。 The STEAM🔥🔥 you’ll have to read it to understand how good this book is and how good the sex scenes are because phew😳Dark, gritty and explosive - all the good things👏🏻 what’s not to love? If you’re not engrossed in this story from the prologue alone, I’ll be shocked。。。It’s no surprise that this book hooked me from the beginning because Jodi has done it YET again。 The last quarter had me stressed SO MUCH。 I like the darker side, can we stay for a bit?I swooned, I cried, I gasped。 All the best emotions when reading a great book。also, a extended epilogue/ending pretty please?🙋🏼‍♀️😂Please note the trigger warnings before the book, just in case! 。。。more

The story flows very fast, and the twists and turns keep coming at a breathless pace。 The suspense and unpredictability makes it a jaw dropping and mesmerizing read! The love story is strangely beautiful。 The main characters, Rose and Danny, are flawed and scarred people who have gone through hell during their lives。 They find each other being immersed in a very unconventional passion and soul connection which neither of them knows how to deal with or expects。 Nevertheless their steamy, fiery, but tender in some ways relationship is an amazingly heartfelt and moving thing to read about。 I highly recommend this story。。。。。 There is absolutely nothing average about this book。。。 You never know what is coming next。。。。。 The surprises and suspense are cleverly worked in and can take your breath away。。。 You will not be bored。。。 It has a wonderfully satisfying ending。。。。。。 Don't go just by the blurb description give it a chance!!! Bravo Jodi Ellen Malpas。。。。。Great work!!!!😇 。。。more

This darker side of Jodi took me by surprise in the best possible way。  I read everything Jodi writes because she’s the best at what she does but she answered my prayers with this one。   This was everything and more than I could want in one book。  The way she captures the raw emotions。  The heartache。 The alpha, the sassy but real Heroine… My heart was in my mouth throughout the story until the very last page。 The darkness, oh the darkness。  Never have we met a Jodi alpha quite like this one, he’s at the top of my list。  Jodi – darkness looks GREAT on you。  Don’t stop。  Ever。  No second chances。   。。。more

First and foremost The Brit is unlike any other Jodi book。。。like ever! At times you will be thinking am I really reading a Jodi Ellen Malpas book - yes baby you are! I’ve always wanted Jodi to discover the darker path in her writing and here it is。 She touched the surface with Gentleman Sinner and Theo Kane “The Brit is a Tour De Force of action, suspense, passion and gut wrenching emotion” I can finally unzip my mouth and finally talk about DANNY bloody Black! Jem alpha no 11 is finally here! First and foremost The Brit is unlike any other Jodi book。。。like ever! At times you will be thinking am I really reading a Jodi Ellen Malpas book - yes baby you are! I’ve always wanted Jodi to discover the darker path in her writing and here it is。 She touched the surface with Gentleman Sinner and Theo Kane a couple of years ago, but with Danny Black, boy she doesn’t hold back and I truly love her even more for that。 The Brit is the book I’ve wanted for a while now。 I knew Jodi had it in her to write this and what a brutal, tragic story it is。 My advice, definitely go in blind。 I hadn’t even read any synopsis before I was kindly sent an arc from Jodi。 We’ve had no introductions to Danny Black like we have had with Jodi’s previous alphas (via the ampersand app a few years ago) so for me, it was like meeting her first alpha all over again。 Another little bit of advice is please don’t compare Danny Black with any other Jem alpha as he is in a completely different league altogether- for one he would kill Jesse and Co just for fun lol。。。。。I shit you not! Danny has been raised in a dark world, a world where he is King。 A world where there are no second chances and he’s the Angel faced assassin。 This book starts with a double boom。 If you haven’t read dark romance trope before, the prologues alone will surprise you big time。 For me, I was like yassss, get in there Jodi! I just knew this book was going to be for me。 The Brit It’s a whirlwind of emotions。 Danny and Rose’s relationship is a completely toxic one。 This isn’t hearts and flowers。 Again, don’t compare this with any previous Jodi story。 Rose and Danny are two characters who are tragically damaged, fighting their way through this dark life they live in to find the light。I don’t want to give too much away, you simply have to read this masterpiece yourself。。。。and yes it is a masterpiece! It’s undeniably Jodi’s best work to date! Dark Jodi has arrived - and she better be staying! Again, DO NOT compare Danny with any previous Jodi alpha- The Brit is in a class of his own。 Come on。。。come to the Dark Side 🖤😈 。。。more

Danny Black, is a formidable man! After an horrific, rough start in life, he is rescued by Carlo Black。。。a Mafia Boss。 Rose, is formidable in her own right too。 She has also suffered, and is still suffering an horrific life。 These two characters are so broken, they know longer feel; emotions or pain。 They have suffered enough to become numb to it。 Danny and Rose become a cog in each other’s wheels, but they both have an agenda, a goal。。。but at what price?"𝙄 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 𝙮𝙤𝙪'𝙧𝙚 𝙘𝙧𝙖𝙯𝙮," 𝙨𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙝𝙞𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙨。"𝙄 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 𝙮𝙤𝙪'𝙧𝙚 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚。""𝙄 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 𝙮𝙤𝙪'𝙧𝙚 𝙖 𝙢𝙪𝙧𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙚𝙧。""𝙄 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 𝙮𝙤𝙪'𝙧𝙚 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚。""𝙄 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 𝙮𝙤𝙪'𝙧𝙚 𝙙𝙚𝙥𝙧𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙙。"𝙄 𝙩𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙣𝙖𝙥𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙡𝙮 𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙚, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙝𝙚 𝙞𝙣𝙝𝙖𝙡𝙚𝙨 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙥𝙡𝙮。 "𝙄 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 𝙮𝙤𝙪'𝙧𝙚 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚," ~ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝘁。I’m saying no more regarding the plot, I went into this book blind, reading no blurb, nothing, all I knew was the Alpha’s name, Danny Black。 But what I will say is, I’ve don’t think I’ve ever read chemistry between two characters like the chemistry between Danny and Rose, it’s rough, hot and 。。。toxic! The angst is palpable!The twists and turns gave me whiplash。 There is so much depth and content in this book, it grips you from the very first page, and never lets go until the last page。 There is heart stopping moment’s aplenty! As always, this Author describes and paints a vivid picture in your mind whilst reading, putting you there, right in the scene。I was utterly shocked 。。。in a very good way with this book and author。 If you are a JEM fan, you will know, she writes swoon worthy Alpha’s。 Well, I don’t think you will be prepared for Danny, he is the darkest, hardest, roughest, Alpha this Author has ever written。。。and I bloody loved it!Don’t worry, trust this Author, you will love it too。 In my opinion, The Brit is Jodi Ellen Malpas’ best work。 In parts I was astonished and shocked! In most parts not quite believing this was Jodi writing this, then in other parts, the romantic Jodi we know and love shone through。 I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough, reading into the early hours。 I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN! She has absolutely blown my mind with it。 It really has shown this Authors brilliant talent and diversity with her writing。 The story is told from duel POV, which I love to read。 Jodi, writes a male POV with ease and brilliance。 I also have to mention, the location the book is set in is completely different for this author, making it authentic and original。 It’s been a while since a book has effected me has much as this book, I just can’t get it out of my head, major book hangover。 I can not recommend it enough! Five stars, just isn’t enough! Best read of 2021Bravo Jodi Ellen Malpas 👏👏👏 Welcome to the dark side。 MUST READ!!! 。。。more
