They call him Il Diavolo

When the devil dressed in black crashes my wedding, I know he didn’t come to offer me his blessing. He came to collect what was always his.

For months, he’s watched me from the shadows. Haunting me. Biding his time. Planning his revenge.

Before he was King of the Cosa Nostra, I was fated to be his queen. I promised him forever. Now, he’s here to remind me what forever really means.

love it!

i love the this spin off series of the IVI society series, this is a must listen series for any dark romance lovers. Its very spicy i would rate it 5 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶

So good!

Definitely a DARK romance, but wow what a wild ride! It totally progressed in a way I wanted it to as well! The characters are fantastic, not annoying at all (so hard to find!), the writing and storylines are really amazing too. The narrators did an excellent job and really added to my enjoyment of the book. The spice level is HOT and actually really creative too (and I listen to a LOT of erotica!)! NOT a cliffy (I was starting to think it would be!)! Overall 5/5 can absolutely recommend!!

This was a good time

This story kept me turning the page, and the spice was sizzling! Great plot the suspense was driving me crazy! This story gives you a little bit of everything. Dark Mafia, secrets, suspense, secret society, betrayal, mask, touch and …, kink, possessive MMC, and FMC. A must read for my dark romance besties

Hot, Dirty, & Dark

Enjoyed the story line. Intense intimate scenarios; dark & dirty. Narrators were great! Looking forward to the next book.
