Guarding Her Gangster Queen

The Colombo Family Duet, Book 2

By: Persephone Black

Narrated by: Mara Vincent, Ada Sinclair

I fled the Colombo Family as a widow. But I'm coming back as their Queen.

I'm done running. And I'm done having Nik Kusek sacrifice everything for my sake. She's protected me, killed for me, even turned against her own people…

Now, it's my turn to step up. I'm ready to claim what belongs to me: the casino, the Family, and the truth about who really killed the old Don.

The problem? Everyone wants me dead.

The Colombos think I'm a traitor. My husband's killer is still out there, gunning for me. And the Novak Consortium wants me out of the way to pull their deadly operative back into line.

But Nik isn't theirs anymore. She's mine.

With enemies closing in from all directions, we're playing a deadly game. The stakes have never been higher. But this time I'm playing for keeps.

Guarding Her Gangster Queen is book two of the Colombo Family Duet, a steamy, contemporary, sapphic, mafia romance. This explosive conclusion features a ruthless bodyguard, a widow turned queen, sizzling heat, and a fight for power that could leave Las Vegas burning. For mature listeners.

The Colombo Family Duet

Another amazing mafia romance duet!

Widowed Brie "Breezy" Colombo teams up with a reluctant Dominika "Nik" Kusek to try and solve her husband's murder. Nik is tasked to be Brie's bodyguard as they dodge hit men, play in mafia politics, and look for any clues that could lead them to a killer.

There was action, mystery, loyalty, betrayal, passion, lots of steam... it was all around awesome! I breezed through both books in one day!
Mara Vincent and Ada Sinclair were excellent narrating!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Amidst all of the spicy revelry, is a really great story!

Is there a sequel? Yet? If not, I am definitely expecting one. There’s a perfect set-up at the end and well, I need that next story to know that our main characters are truly going to be OK! Even minor characters are well written, leaving plenty of room to explore their back stories, The narration is outstanding with clear and distinct voices, includiing excellent acting skills that it’s difficult to notice, because they are so good. The storyline is clever and constantly surprising, but believable. And the author does what she does so well in this book. Highly recommended.

Great story

The twist was great, never saw it coming. For sure I thought it was one of the capos

Entertaining and well written

Another great story from Persephone Black. The plot was engaging and the narration was excellent. This title is a welcome addition to my audio library!

Loved it! Want more

I’m a big fan of Brie and Nic! This book did not disappoint. I love how Brie is growing into her role. The narrators were great, the story engaging, and the relationship sweet. I would love to see more of this amazing couple.
