Resumen del Editor

You can't rise from the ashes if you've never been burned.

When notorious mafia boss Danny Black and lethal assassin James Kelly join forces to hunt down an elusive mutual nemesis who threatens to destroy them both and take control of their city, they know they will be entering a deadly game. A game they must win if they are ever going to live in peace with the women they love away from crime, corruption, and death.

But peace is an illusion, love is a daily torment, and death will always follow them.

As power starts to slip from their grasp, enemies reemerge, and old personal demons return to haunt them both, they finally accept they can never leave their world if they want to stay alive. So they need to protect it at all costs. No matter the consequences. No matter the losses. No matter the pain. They must make choices no men should make. Kill more ruthlessly, love more fiercely, and hate with more rage than ever before.

They're capable. Ready.

But nothing prepares them for the secrets they uncover and the betrayals they face. Or the personal sacrifices they must make to rise again.

Two men.

One goal.

No mercy.

This is The Rising.

Gripping!

This installment of the series was a roller coaster with Danny and James being the most interesting and well defined characters. Beau a close second and Brad hinting of ex coin future installments. The story had twists and turns which were not expected and John Hartley and Shane East perfectly portraying the protagonists. 5 enthusiastic stars. I look forward to continuing the series.
**I went back and re-read from the beginning (The Brit) and was glad I did. I would have been a bit lost if I hadn’t since it was a few years since I read initially.

Fantastic!

Loved this book and series. Shane East is the BEST narrator! Jodi Ellen Malpas is the bomb!

OMG!!!

OMG! Book 5 better hurry up!!! I am so into these characters! I feel like I know them personally! This series is awesome! Narration is Awesome! I just can't say enough good things to say about this series! Jodi is new to me, but I'll be seeing what else she has on Audibles but this time I'll make sure the whole series is out first!!! I did not review the first 3 yet because I had to hurry and get the next book each time!!!! Definitely worth a listen!!!!!!

Amazing

Wow! What a wild ride. This book picks up right where we left off in book 3 (The Resurrection). And these 4 just can't catch a break. So good. The twist definitely didn't see that coming. Great narrators.

What a great story

Jodi you did it again can’t wait for book 5 , Love every family personality ,and the family continues to grow!

Phenomenal

This series just get better with each book. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Can’t wait for book 5

AMAZING!!!

The overall story was amazing!!! But Rose and Beau got on my FREAKING NERVES!!! I’m all for the heroine, but they just needed to sit TF down!!! They make me sick with their back and forth insecurities and double standards!!! If they want to be soooo strong, they need to stop falling back into their trauma and pull their sh*t together!! And this is no dig at trauma….it’s real!! I know that all too well, but geeesh!! Give these men a break and let them love you!!! I may have more to write later because I still have 6 hours to go, but I had to get this off my chest after Chapter 24 ended!!!

Absolute perfection!

I have been anxiously awaiting this 4th book in the Unlawful Men series and let me tell you, it was worth the wait! This book is the exciting continuation (I won't say conclusion because I hope and think that there will be more in this series) of the story of The Brit (Danny) and his wife Rose, and The Enigma (James) and his girlfriend Beau. This new series from Jodi Ellen Malpas is a roller coaster ride through the seedy and violent underworld of the Miami mafia and will grab you from the first page and keep you guessing and on the edge of your seat clear through to the last page. This book checks ALL the boxes for a 5 star listen for me: dark and complex characters that are morally grey (both the men and the women), suspenseful and action-packed plot, plenty of steamy and sensual scenes, brilliant writing that flows seamlessly between action and dialog, and the flawless performance of 4 outstanding narrators that make this book play like a movie in my head.

Shane East, Vanessa Edwin, John Hartley and Emma Wilder perform this book in a dual style yet multi-cast, from all 4 main character POV's and it is absolute perfection. This series is one of my all time favorites and these actors have taken this story to another level that just can't be achieved when reading this book strictly from the page. Fair warning though, once you start this audiobook you won't want to pause it at all so be ready to lose sleep and just take a couple of days off to simply sit and enjoy the ride. Be sure to check for trigger warnings though because like many in the mafia trope this book and series is not for the faint of heart but it is sure to stay with you long after you finish.

Amazing ending 💗

This book was a fantastic addition to a great series. I can’t wait until the next one! Love the narration.

May be my favorite in series!!

Jodi Ellen Malpas has done it again! The Rising my be my favorite within the Unlawful Men series so far. The continuation of Danny, Rose, James, and Beau was beautifully written!

The ups and downs, twists and turns you endure through the entire series have you wanting more and more. Thankfully multiple plot twists are tied up in a bow by the time you are finished but not to fret of course there is yet another small cliff that we get to hang on for a bit! Haha

The story is amazing and loved every second of it, the narration of this series gave an entire new feel to the books and it was amazingly done. The last couple books, having four lead characters and them each having their own narrator took these to a whole new level.
Cannot praise these books and author enough!!!
