Dario DeLuca

Savage Bloodline

By: Sade Rena, M.L. Preston

Narrated by: Troy Kain, Eden Lafon

The first lesson my father ever taught me was that power is the only currency, loyalty is the law, and always take what you want.

When the Mayor of our city begs me to keep his precious daughter safe, I seize my chance to strengthen the DeLuca hold on the town.

I’ll keep her safe, but it’ll come at a price.
Mia Gordon, the sheltered heiress, must become my wife.
She’s a stranger to our brutal world.
A symbol.
A means to an end.
A strategic move, nothing more.

But as I draw her into my shadowed life, shielding her from the ghost of our fathers’ past, I realize she’s more than a pawn. Every defiant glare, every whispered challenge stirs something dark and hungry within me. She’s an enigma, a mystery wrapped in innocence and hidden depths.

Protecting Mia becomes more than duty; it’s a burning need. The deeper we dive into the lies that bind her family to mine, she becomes more than just my wife in name. Mia’s the unexpected light in my dark world.

But can love be our salvation in a life built on blood and deceit, or will buried secrets destroy it all?

Dario DeLuca: Savage Bloodline is an interracial (BWWM), forced marriage, age-gap, mafia romance that is a gripping tale of love, loyalty, and survival in a world where nothing is as it seems.©2024 Sade Rena & ML Preston (P)2024 Recorded Books

Great narrators

Nice story, not too graphic; mmc actually not too bad but the story wasnt too impressive. It was predictable and as soon as we have the plot twists, its quickly untangled and book ends 😅

Great read

I really liked this book and wish the series had more male and female narrators. I know it makes for a great story however I would've had some long stranding issues with my father if he gave me away as currency for family protection....ESPECIALLY since the protection wasn't even that great lol. I'm like, Dario, how you call yourself a protector, security team and the ppl you're supposed to protect are getting shot up??? Great read though!

Disappointed!

I would have enjoyed the story if the female narrator was less dull and annoying. And it definitely was way to wordy and descriptive than needed. On more than one occasion I said enough I get it shut up already. The only saving grace was the male narrator. He kept me invested in the story.

Dario

The emotionless female narrator. Made this such a tedious listening journey!!! It almost drove me to drink!

Story is good but unnecessarily wordy and descriptive

I enjoyed the story but it’s hard to stay invested in the story as it’s overtly descriptive… (I.e…I’m acutely aware that I’ve crossed an undying precipice… “) it’s a lot of words, which takes away from the story.
