Resumen del Editor

A new dark mafia romance from USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Siobhan Davis.

Seducing the enemy was the goal—not falling for my mafia boss.

As a rookie spy, my first mission is to seduce the Irish mafia boss's brother and prove he is behind the threat to the mafioso in The Big Apple.

It's a dream job.

Except my new boss is sucking all the joy from my life. Don Joshua Accardi seems way too invested in my personal safety, and he's constantly scolding me for taking too many risks.

Gone is the friendly older guy I knew growing up. His ex's betrayal changed him. Now, Joshua is a cold, controlling man living his life by a rigid set of self-imposed rules.

He thinks he can push me around and I'll do his bidding like every other woman in the city.

But I enjoy pushing back and seeing him lose his cool is the ultimate high.

Sparks constantly fly, and it's not long before we cave to our insane chemistry.

Joshua has wormed his way into my heart, but the downside of loving a powerful man is getting noticed by his enemies.

Now, I'm a target and my mission just got a lot more dangerous.

This is book one of two and it cannot be listened to as a stand-alone. Recommended to listeners aged eighteen and older. This is a dark romance with mature content and themes. Refer to the content list on my website for more information.

Joshua and Gia

Fantastic story and doesn't pull any punches. The chemistry between Joshua and Gia is very hot. it is also cool to know what the characters from the Mazzone series have been up to and that they are still very much in love. It ends on a crazy cliffhanger! Can't wait for the next book!!

4⭐️ BUT IMO, MALE NARRATOR DIDN’T FIT STORYLINE

What a good story this was as strong, independent, fierce Gia goes undercover to get close to her ‘Family's’ enemy.. and struts herself headfirst into danger. They’re life long acquaintances her and emotionally broken Joshua.. but now he‘s been asked to be Gia’s handler. To keep his eyes and ears trained on Gia to keep her safe as she succeeds in getting closer and closer to another man. It's a high stakes dangerous and desperate move to get precious intel on their enemy. However, Gina and Joshua have a hard time keeping it professional, keeping it platonic, keeping it clean and keeping it from becoming something long lasting. And their rollercoaster was full of suspense, intrigue, action, darkness, sex and romance.. which I loved.

BUT, what I reeeeally didn’t love was the choice of narrator for Joshua (no offence Noel) but the Casting Director who actually thought you were a good fit for this listen should be taken out at dawn, paraded in front of a group of us listeners and shot at dawn!! You’d be great in Mysteries and Thrillers but I thought your voice just wasn’t sexy or right for the part of a young Don as your voice was too old for the part you were playing.. and it didn’t fit the picture either. You’re ok Noel - just not in the romance genre please. It was Duet narration which helped a little and Ramona and Sarah were great.. so I’ll continue with Book 2 which is a continuation of the plot but it’s manwhore Caleb Accardi’s story up next.

Worth a credit? 50/50 - Strictly because of the casting - as it wasn’t the fully immersive and deliciously drool-worthy listen I’d hoped it’d be. However, it ebbs and flows well with never a dull moment as the very enjoyable plot twists and weaves its web that’s full of Mafia men and their wars, their schemes and the villains they face. And the young woman who sacrificed herself to save their asses!!
Trigger warning: physical assault/rape

A cold read!

Seducing the enemy was the goal...
Not falling for her mafia boss...

This was the best read I have read so far this year. It was everything I wanted and more.

Such a deliciously dark and cold read that will keep you happily invested throughout the whole book.

Now, onto the next book!

Perfect for readers of dark romances.

Loved the female's voice. Hooking and so compelling!

Amazing story!!!

I was so excited to listen to my favorite author story of the amazing Twins!! The audio bring the book to life and makes you feel like your right there! plus for me it allows me to catch what I missed when I read the book!!! loved the females voices! I was not crazy about the male! he was not bad but he just did not fit Josh or the book! I truly loved the plot and the way they did bring the emotions out of His and Josh!!

worth it

I was so excited about the audiobook and was not disappeared.
The performance was good.
The narrators were good.

the male narrator voice sounded older for my liking. but it didn't take away from the performance.
female narrator always sounds angry whatever book she narrates.

it was worth it and performance was good.

Cold King indeed!

Loved watching the Accardi twins when they were kids in the Mazzone Mafia books so seeing them now as grown men made me chomp at the bit to see where Siobhan would take us in their journey. Gia is an amazing, strong, beautiful character and I loved her and Joshua together. The performance was great by all parties but I'm not gonna lie; Noel Harrison does not sound like what I think Joshua should sound like, but I still liked his style and accents. Loved the cliff hanger with the reveal of an old enemy thought long dead.

4 starz - worthy of a repeat listen

Just the beginning

Siobhan Davis has written another heart-stopping book. I cringed, smiled, laughed, and cringed some more. I had tears in my eyes. I held my breath several times while my heart pounded. I absolutely cannot wait for the next book to see where this goes.

Noel Harrison, Ramona Master, and Sarah Puckett are excellent narrators. Noel is a new to me narrator and I loved his deep, growly voice. Ramona and Sarah are favorite narrators of mine. Once again they, along with Noel, give us an emotional performance that has the audiobook rolling like a movie in my head.

Dark, intense story!!

O.M.G.!!!!! Cold King of New York, an Audiobook by Siobhan Davis is a MASTERPIECE!!!! It’s the story of Joshua and Gia. She’s a formidable member of the team and she’s being enlisted. Joshua is her handler.

Sooooooooo much happening in this wildly imaginative, engrossing, deliciously decadent story….you won’t be able to put it down until you read the very last word!! I was catapulted into this story almost immediately!! My mind racing to discover the truth. This story is a frenzy of lies, deceit, traitorous intent, loyalty, dedication, and so much more!! Ends in the most shocking conclusion ever!!!!! Didn’t see this coming at all!! Ends in a major cliffhanger!!

This Audiobook was wonderfully narrated by Noel Harrison, Ramona Master, and Sarah Puckett. I loved the dark vibes that each of these performances exuded!!! They sent chills down my spine as I listened to this incredibly engrossing, intensely dark story!!! Excellent performances!!

Dark Mafia Romance

4.5 stars. This book was a good dark mafia romance! The FMC, Gia, was strong and feisty. She challenged the MMC, Joshua, and wasn't afraid to speak her mind. I was not prepared for what she experienced, and I loved how Joshua was there for her. It ends on a cliffhanger and will follow Gia’s best friend and Joshua’s twin. The narrators from the Audiobook were perfect!

Duet narration 👍

I liked the book, the characters, the narration. It has all the feels. Check TW because there is SA and rape but not in gory detail. On to the second half.
