I choose Killian O’Malley out of desperation.

My papà gives me an ultimatum with one other option. I’ll do anything not to marry the Italian mafia boss who lives in Italy and is twice my age.

So I become Killian’s debt repayment. When I’m forced to pick, I don’t know he’s a boxer, a decade older than me, or that he has a body better than Zeus.

He’s bossy. Arrogant.

He calls me a mafia brat and creates rules like I’m his child, saying he’ll tame me.

Our angsty relationship is so hot between the sheets my head is constantly spinning.

At times, he becomes a raging psychopath destroying anyone who even looks at me, including my ex who won’t move on.

I thought Killian would be a playboy, but he takes our vows to the extreme.

Everything about him makes him my brutal defender.

Brutal Defender is the eighth jaw-dropping installment of the Mafia Wars series. It’s an arranged-marriage age-gap dark mafia romance, interconnecting stand-alone, and guaranteed to have an HEA.

This series keeps getting better. And this book was another amazing installment. From the start you are hooked. And you get invested in these characters lives. They hold you captive, making you want to keep reading. And the narrators did an absolutely amazing job bringing Killian and Arianna to life. Their voices beautifully tell this story. And make the spicy scenes so much better.

Love this series.

Brutal Defender by Maggie Cole is an enemies to lovers dark mafia romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Kelsey Navarro and Lance Greenfield. This is the eighth book in the Mafia Wars series. The book can be read as a standalone but the stories are interconnected.

I absolutely love Maggie's books! She does an amazing job pulling me into the story. I loved the relationship that bloomed between Killian and Arianna. I really enjoyed getting both of their points of views throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.

I can't wait for the next book in the series Deviant Hacker to be released on December 1, 2021 so I can get Declan's story.

Kelsey and Lance did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.

I would recommend this book you if you love arranged marriages, age gap romances, dark romances, mafia romances, or romantic suspense.

This is a story that had me hooked from the very beginning. I mean, how could you not be interested when you hear that the #1 bachelor is being forced to get married??!! Killian O’Malley was told that he was getting married in a week. I mean, what kind of notice is that?!

And the kicker is, the woman that he has to marry is Arianna Marino. Boy is she a spitfire! She sure gives Killian a run for his money. She is a strong, independent woman who doesn’t take anybody’s shit and she sure isn’t going to start with Killian. They tend to butt heads a lot, which makes this book quite hilarious at times (and the narrators are perfect for those parts). There are many certain parts in particular (wedding confession, honeymoon to name a couple). Hey I don’t want to give away the entire book!!! 🤣🤣🤣 This is definitely a book you don’t want to miss out on!

Story that grips you from the start
