Publisher's summary

Payton

Running away from home at 17 wasn't easy. Let's face it, though, nothing before or in the ten years since has ever been easy for me. And I'm doing okay—sorta. I just need to keep scraping by, living under the radar. Staying out of people's way, off people's minds.

When a man walks through my open patio door, stepping boldly into my home and my life, I should be scared, frightened, terrified.

I must be more broken than I realized because I'm none of those things. I'm intrigued—and I'm wondering if the way to take control of my life is by giving in to him.

Nero

The first time I took a man's life, I knew there'd be no going back, no normal existence in the cards for me. Instead of walking away, I climbed a mountain of bodies and created my own destiny by forming The Alliance. And I was fine with that, content enough to carry on.

Until I stepped through those open doors, and into her life.

I should've walked away. Should've gone right back out the door I came through. But I didn't. And now her life is in danger. That's the thing about being a bad man. I'll happily paint the streets red to protect what's mine.

And Payton is mine. Whether she knows it or not.

Not normally a fan mafia stories but 1000% worth a listen

I absolutely look forward to every SJ Tilly novel that comes out. I didn’t have high expectations for this because I don’t love dark mafia romance. However, Nero and Peyton are completely enjoyable characters and the narration is fantastic.

However, I must say I need need need Ty’s novel ASAP, slightly dark, FBI agent who is also an MMA fighter with full body of tattoos yes, please!!!!

What a book!!! 📚

I enjoyed this books so much. This is a dark mafia romance so just keep that in mind it will be DARK, it will be GRAPHIC, and yes some parts will be HARD to swallow but it’s a fun read. 😁

This is fantasy it’s not meant to be real so with all that said I enjoyed the story, the narrators are amazing and it even had some funny parts.

Oh! best of all it’s not a cliffhanger so you can enjoy just this one or keep going into the next book.

Spicy and entertaining

I love Nero and his crazy and I must say the narrators dis justice to a book I love

Unhinged but fun

NERO is my introduction to the Alliance series, and after I read all of the other books, he is hands down the funniest one. This is what sets this mafia series apart from the other, it's dark, unhinged, but still got humour and so entertaining. And of course the spice is top notch too. Jack Calihan done such a great job at this series so far, I cannot wait to listen to Dom and Hans. Highly recommended!!!

Great story

I loved the story, The readers were great also. I can’t wait to download the next book

good worth the read

I laughed at the conversation she had in her head when she first met him

Nero the Great

This was a great book and audio... but those deep breaths at the ending were a little annoying.

Pretty good storytelling and narration.

This is a good story with decent narration and is a series, which hopefully promises more entertainment ahead.

Voices Make Such a Difference

I've read Nero a few times, but this was my first time listening. It's also the first time I listened to these specific narrators. As with most of the audiobooks I have listened to, it takes me a chapter or two to get into the listening zone since my head had voices when I read, but now with narrators I have to get used to them. That being said, I enjoyed this audiobook. Jack Calihan's voice intonations took getting used to, but as the story progressed, I was just hearing Nero speak, so that's a great thing. Chloe Ryan did a good job as Payton. If you enjoy stories about red flag waving men who are good behind their bad, this is most likely something you will like.

Absolutely loved!

Really enjoyed the story. Loved their relationship and how protective and dominant Nero is.
Loved Nero’s and kings friendship as well. Added to the story.

The narrators are great!
