Venesa Andersen has never been good. She wasn't good enough for her parents, and she isn't good enough for the gangster uncle who took her in after they died. But she's cunning. Beautiful. Dutiful to her uncle's demands. And she doesn't have time for a moral compass, anyway. When her runaway cousin returns to their coastal southern town, she brings a man with her . . . and Venesa soon realizes he's the only one who's ever seen her for her. There's just one problem: she can never have him.

Mafia and Mermaids: Hexed is the Dark Romance You Need
Revisado: 11-25-24
Rating: 4.5/5
Hexed by Emily McIntire is the perfect dark romance finale to the Never After series. Venesa and Enzo are giving forbidden love in the best way possible—like, how can I want this so bad and still know it’s so wrong?? Their chemistry is straight-up 😮💨😮💨*fans self* and the tension had me screaming "just kiss already!" But the real kicker? It’s not just the steam (though it’s 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️), it’s how McIntire flawlessly weaves in intricate details from The Little Mermaid that lovers of the fairytale will notice with ease. This isn’t just a retelling, it’s a reimagining—and McIntire does it so well.
I especially loved how McIntire flipped the character arcs, with Aria (Ariel) being the true villain and Venesa (Ursula) being the protagonist we actually root for. It was such a fresh twist and honestly, I’m here for it.
Now, this is audiobooks I do adore, so of course we have to discuss the narration. It was Duel-style, which I loved because it really brought both characters to life. But the true star of this audiobook? Madeleine Dauer. She did both accents for Venesa and Enzo FLAWLESSLY. Seriously, the voice work was so spot-on, I couldn’t get enough. Erik Bloomquist also did a great job, but as a New Yorker, I’ve got to say—his accent for Enzo, in some parts, fell a little flat for me. But it didn’t take me out of the story too much, especially since the chemistry between the characters still came through strong.
Now, I’m not gonna lie, a couple of the twists were kinda predictable. But like… the vibes were so good I didn’t even care. If you're into mafia romance with morally gray characters, sizzling tension, and a little danger, you NEED to add this to your TBR.
Mafia is one of my favorite subgenres of romance, and THIS is definitely on my recommendation list!

Losing my innocence at 13 in the most brutal way changed me. My kidnapper stole my childhood and tried to break me. The knowledge my father orchestrated the entire situation hardened my heart, and instead of grieving his death, I celebrated it. One down. Many more to go. Now I’m in charge. Men bow before me. Except for him—the brother of my abductor. Massimo fights me every step of the way, but I’m not about to let the explosive chemistry between us deter me from my chosen path. His family is my enemy. He is my enemy, even if he doesn’t know it yet.

Before I start this review, I recommend you turn around and read the first three mazzone mafia books just because they take place in the same world. Also please please please realize this is a dark romance book, so the topics discussed in this are VERY VERY heavy, I recommend looking up cw/tw.
Now, let me tell you something! I had just finished the mazzone mafia and I was itching to get back into that world. I kept seeing this audiobook as a recommendation but was a little apprehensive. Then I saw one review that said it takes place in the same world and I did not think twice, I immediately bought it! With that being said this book is 4.5 stars at the minimum!
The back story, the plot twists, just following the journey of the FMC and the MMC as well as the side characters was a wild wild ride! I already told multiple people that if you love mafia romance and have very little triggers this us the story for you! Its a beautiful story about one strong woman and her road to love! It is an HEA so please don’t let the heaviness deter you.
My only qualm is the male narrator is a little monotonal, but it is dual pov so the woman narrator does all the women parts and the male narrator does all the male parts! I actually loved the Ramona Master in this one!

According to her pops, all she has to do is earn favor with the Edens. But winning over the town’s founding family might have been easier if not for her one-night stand with their oldest son. Winslow does her best to avoid Griffin, but when a woman is found dead on Eden property, the two of them have no choice but to cross paths.

A Perfect Surprise,
Revisado: 12-15-22
All I can say is WOW. First I will say to go into this blind! A friend of mine recommended this book to me and I was a little apprehensive because I was nervous that it would not live up to the hype.
BOY WAS I WRONG. Listen there are so many things that go into a pleasant reading experience and this has it all. First amazing narrators, this is key because they are telling the story and Vanessa Edwin and Jason Clarke do a phenomenal job at breathing life and personality into to every character in this story. Second there is pacing, I have no idea how Devney did but she paced this story perfectly! The moments that needed to be slow was slow and what needed to pick up speed did just that. Third, since this is a series you need some world building, she did that effortlessly as well. Lastly is plot, SHE DELIVERED ALLLLLLLLLLL THAT OKAY! Also yes there was spice and it was delicious 😏😏
Nothing more I can say but fantastic job Devney, you have me as a fan for life now.

Heath Holiday. My crush on him has ebbed and flowed over the years, but the day I started working for his construction company was the day I smothered it for good. Sort of. Mostly. It was on my to-do list. Making it a priority would have been easier had he not arrived at his family’s annual Christmas party looking ridiculously handsome in a suit. Then he kissed me. We stepped into an alternate universe and he kissed me.

Perfect quick novella 4.5 stars!
Revisado: 12-13-22
I thought this book was down hilarious (specifically Stella). For a novella the timing was perfectly on pace, not to fast not too slow. Willa Nash did an amazing job fitting telling this second chance romance story in just 4 hours! MAAM, I actually need more okay!
Stella and Heath were absolute perfection together and it shows that sometimes relationships are worth the wait! He annoyed me a little and if you read this you will know why but other than that I loved them! Can we get another story about what happens next because it seems like they are going to be having similar life changes as Maddox and Nat (first book of the series)
