Publisher's summary

Filthy Rich Alphas is a series of stand-alone interracial romance stories featuring sexy men falling in love with kickass Black heroines. All books explore different tropes, have steamy illustrations, and will have you laughing as you listen.

Meet Dima

A mind-blowing enemies-to-lovers romance!

Dima rules the North of Paradise—a city for the darkest alphas. The only gangster heaven on Earth. Due to his unique talent for capturing brutal enemies, he also heads the Diamond Syndicate with other Paradise Mafia Kings.

However, a serial killer has come to Paradise. And this sicko is targeting top Syndicate members. And Dima is having a challenging time finding the killer due to a sexy reporter constantly getting in his damn way.

Rose is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist. Last year, she created political earthquakes in New York from reporting on government corruption. Now that she’s moved to Paradise, her mission is to expose the Diamond Syndicate and all their wrongdoings.

Too bad Dima won’t let her.

He blocks.

She pushes.

Sometimes she wins.

But most of the time she submits.

And a dark, erotic attraction blazes between them, so hot they can’t ignore it. And she’s catapulted into Paradise’s criminal underworld, where gangsters are heroes and the villains are the most unsuspected people. Meanwhile, a killer sits within the shadows, waiting to kill them both.

New Narrators for me

Audio version, this was so entertaining. There is so much going on, mystery, cockiness, attraction even though she fights it. I can't say alot without giving it away but I couldn't stop listening. The narrators were good I had to get used to the female narrator which is the reason for the 4 stars but overall good. I need tthe other ones in the series.

Good

This was a great book. However, I wish they would’ve did the ending better to the story and left a lot of things on. Answered
If the ending felt thrown together a little bit

Amazing story!

I loved Dina in this story and found myself laughing out loud a few times. I also liked the strong female lead.

I need more!

This was an amazing story and I loved the characters. Dima was the perfect manipulative a|pha a$$hole. He was passionate, powerful and in charge. Rose was the perfect match to Dima. She is strong, independent, and intelligent. The storyline and narration was *chef’s kiss* and I listened to this in one sitting! My only complaint was that there was no definitive ending. There was a cliffhanger and I’ll have to read/listen to the next books to get the whole story!

Rating: 4/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Amazing narration

The narration truly helped bring this to life. I loved the voices of Dima and Rose. I adored Dima😍and his emotional development. To be honest, I prefer listening from his “quirky” perspective, as he so eloquently put it. Lol! My only gripe is that I didn’t want to jump so far ahead into the future. Because it leaves me with a lot of questions, I could’ve settled with them ending without the epilogue; however, all in all, this was a fabulous book, and I enjoyed staying up late and being tired the next day at work because it was captivating. Ms. Wright, please continue with the duet narration. It is outstanding 💜💜💜🎉🎉🎉

benefit of the doubt

i’ve got the mystery from the bloody message, but i like the duet format. it’s weird, but i got used to it. there’s a section after the interview where the reporter’s voice is very obviously SUPPOSED to be put in, but it’s just silence. luckily, we’d heard the interview so we got the gist. giving kenya the benefit of the doubt with the number of stars (since i’m like halfway through), and trying not to separate the outspokenness/introspection/lack of social cues of one of the characters from their space on the spectrum. so much nuance and subtlety in discussing autism as a character trait, and i love the little things kw adds to the story to remind the reader. the character’s awareness of themselves sort of helped me to think ‘oh, yeah, they’re not JUST being crass (because they certainly are), it’s also [whatever trait is being exhibited] contributing to how i’m perceiving/should perceive them in this scene.’


okay back on ‘no’ means ‘no’. i wish she was OUTWARDLY and enthusiastically consenting to their relationship. i don’t like that it seems her ‘no’ was a suggestion and he has control over her. i want her to not just be stubborn, but strong and i don’t want consent to be implied. ugh. something really bugs me about it.

Could we please change the female Narrated

I love the story, but the female narrated I just can't get over how she elongates ever word. It's like why does ever word sound like it has an S at the end or is a hundred syllables long . This is the same reason why I stop buying there audible books for the Lion and the Mouse when the female lead narrator was switch from Shari Peele to Lacy Laurel. Lacy narration does feel like it fits in the story. This means I will only purchasing the Kindle books.

Great all around except her voice

I enjoyed the story including the autistic aspect of Dima. But though I appreciated having a male and female voice to narrate the story, Lacy Laurel's voice kept taking me out. The way she narrates and pronounces words is like a person trying to say "gonna", when they normally say "going to". It doesn't translate well and makes it difficult to embrace. What happened to Shari Peele? Her voice was perfect! Otherwise great story!

I enjoyed this book

This was an interesting story. Mafia romance with tons of action, a little suspense and lots of steamy moments. I liked that the author gave us an alpha hero with unique characteristics. As a mom of a child on the spectrum, I was able to relate to DIMA’s personality and quirks. Rose was a strong and independent heroine that stood her ground with DIMA. What I wasn’t a fan of was how the story ended. It felt sort of like a cliffy and didn’t delve too much into how their story played out.

Tim Paige did a great job narrating. Lacy Laurel did a good job, but at times I was not connecting with her portraying Rose.

The female narrator’s voice is extremely annoying!

I can’t stand this female narrator; why is she reading like this. The story is good but I’m finding it difficult to listen to her!
