😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

When Jade’s world falls apart, she discovers a life-changing secret—her dad runs the Outfit and she suddenly has nine brothers 😳. To find her place, she’s thrown into Empire Academy, the ultimate school for mafia kids.

Enter Dmitri—the future Pakhan—whose love sweeps her into a storm of danger, loyalty, and romance. Add in the chaos of the Moretti gang, Ivan’s protective streak = 😍), and you’ve got a story that feels like a full-on blockbuster saga.

This series had me hooked from page one. Resilience, family, action, wit, romance—it’s all here. And the fact that I still can’t stop thinking about it months later? Yeah, definitely one of my fave mafia romances ever.

🎧 Bonus: the audiobook is chef’s kiss. Gabriel De Leon & Amy Hall absolutely nailed the tension and chemistry.

I love this story

I have read this book 3 times. I love the audiobook even more. The story is amazing and the narration is perfect.

My Favorite Mafia Family!

This series wasn't what I expected. While there's violence, The 9 mafia brothers and dad are teddy bears when it comes to Jade and any woman in need. They welcome Jade with wide arms and show her the love she deserves. Romeo is my favorite. He's the oldest sibling that's fiercely protective of his family. I can't wait for his book to hit audible! BTW.... the series isn't complete! Jade and Dimitri's love story is great but the whole family is involved in these books. It's awesome! The narrators are also fantastic!

What a saga

I love long story like this. I loved to see her grow into herself and go after what she wants. Their love wasn’t ever a question and I love mafia stories like this one.

My Biggest Regret ...

Not listening to this sooner!!! I am so taken away with this new world of the Morettis that it's indescribable. This insta love had me insta hooked for sure and I can't wait to get my ears on the next one!!!
