About this listen
Never let them see. Always keep them guessing. Play their game.
Drowning and rising. Burning and dying.
Corruption and chaos. A heart in a box.
Snick. Flick. Flame.
LIAM
She’s my secret. My answer. My Ace.
I’m a cabal leader for KORT—not a man who gets involved. Never for more than a night.
Certainly not with Celeste Carver—a Daddy’s girl whose biggest problem is which politician to marry.
All I want is a taste.
But the pretentious princess burrows under my skin. And I’m tired of being polite.
Once she’s claimed, there’s no going back.
Not without ending up six feet under.
CELESTE
The Carver name comes with expectations. A legacy.
But no matter how hard I try or how much I hate him, my attention swings to Liam Graves.
Forbidden fruit.
He’s all golden god meets dark angel. Unhinged trouble.
Good thing I have a skilled poker face and a steel determination.
But in a blink, it all spins out of control.
Freedom is captivity.
Dead is alive.
Choice is a butchered pipe dream.
Unless I’m the one holding all the cards.
While the novel can stand alone, significant character development and important details about the character’s lives will be missed without first listening to BURNING IVY.
What to expect:
Jealous/Possessive Hero
Mafia/Secret Society
Found Family
Forbidden/ Secret Relationship
Close Proximity
He falls first and falls Hard
Action/Suspense
Touch her and Die

She’s my mission. My prize. My obsession. Ivy Kingston is the most wanted woman in the world for reasons she is completely oblivious to, reasons I intend to capitalize on. She needs a husband to receive her inheritance, so I’m on the hunt for a wife. As long as it’s her. I’m not who she thinks I am. But she has no idea who she really is either. I’ll be her groom. Her keeper. Her lover. And quite possibly her demise.

Story
Pretending to date my handsome new housemate was already a bad idea, but then I discover he’s no ordinary guy—he’s a mobster in hiding. And in this story, he’s not the hero, but the wicked villain. Rowan Miller isn’t used to hearing the word “no.” I guess when you’re 6’5, gorgeously tattooed, and sculpted like a Michelangelo masterpiece, women tend to throw themselves at you. But in a small town like Darkwater Hollow, a reputation as a womanizer will catch up with you—and your business—eventually.

Story
Agent Bradly "Wolfe" Tucker has one case he cannot solve: six murdered women and a cold trail leading nowhere. When bodies with an eerily similar MO show up in Philadelphia, he volunteers to assist with the case. He figures he will spend a few days in Philly, hand the case off, and head back to his life in Seattle. But everything changes when he stops at a local bar, looks across the room, and sees her. Agent Leda Bailey has had a bad week. She has three dead women and no trail to follow. The clues don't add up, and nothing makes sense.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when arriving in Salem. Forced to marry a man I’ve never met, attend a private university I’d never heard of, and the whispers of a rumored secret society filling the halls. This life would be near unbearable with my insufferable fiancé if it wasn’t for his uncle, his best friend, and his enemy. When none of them are willing to let me go, it sends us down a path I’m not sure any of us will survive. The life I was promised is distorted behind smoke and mirrors. The truth cloaked by Deceit.

He’s fixed on making this a Christmas Evie will remember forever. If she gives him a chance.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

This Series Just Keeps Getting Better
Carving Graves is book 2 in The KORT Series and once again, another page turner! The secrets and twists had me biting my nails the entire time. The relationship between Liam and Celeste was both spicy and swoon worthy. The spice was top notch and once again I fell in love with this little found family. I enjoyed the glimpses into Wells and Ivy’s life and the banter between everyone.
The attention to detail in this book and the way the narrators brought it to life was so amazing it was like I was seeing a movie in my head as I read. The narration was phenomenal. This is hands down my favorite performance from Aiden Snow to date. He was the perfect Liam; that deep and growly voice was perfect for not only delivering the dirty talk and possessiveness but he also portrayed Liam’s vulnerable side so well. Angelina Rocco brought Celeste’s fierce and fiery personality to life perfectly. The two both brought so much emotion to their performances as they brought this fantastic story to life.

I swear this series just keeps getting better...
Book two in the KORT series picks up just a little bit after where we left off in book one. Celeste has come to stay with Ivy and the guys for a bit. She's stuck between finding her own path and the pressure to follow the path her family is pushing her down. Unfortunately that path is pushing her to find a nice, boring politician to settle down with. Meanwhile she's finding it harder and harder to ignore her growing feelings for Liam.
Liam is so sure he knows exactly who Celeste is and what she wants out of life. The other guys in their tightknit, found family are finding ways to learn more about Celeste as a person and connecting with her in their own unique ways. This definitely goes a long way to get Liam to open his eyes and actually see her past the mask she puts on for everyone.
Along the way they try to unravel the mystery of who is after Celeste and her family and what's so important that it puts her in constant danger. Liam is determined to get Celeste to break free and stand up for herself while she's determined not to let her family down. Their journey is so intense, emotional, spicy, and just fantastic.
This book was so good! The nontraditional family they're all building is so amazing. I'm sitting over here making a wish list of potential books in this world. I want all their stories including the Noires and anyone else we collect along the way. Such a great world to dive into. Just two books in and it's definitely a series on my list to re-read later on down the road when I can binge them all when it's complete. I can't wait for Ty's story next.
AUDIOBOOK UPDATE: This was done in a duet style narration with a couple of great narrators bringing this story to life. The audiobook was a re-read for me and just made me fall in love with this story and this world as a whole all over again. So good!

Mind altering
SNICK. FLICK. FLAME.
After reading Burning Ivy, I was obcessed. How did it take me so long to come across this author and her amazing series. This brings me to a whole nother level of mafia romance, I didn't know I was obcessed with.
Celeste Carver is Ivy's best friend and has a legacy of her own that she is expected to live up to. One she does not want. Liam Graves is a cabal leader for KORT who doesn’t get involved. Except where Celeste is involve. These two have chemistry that will alter everything.
With Celeste having worked her whole life to please her family, will Liam be the choice that she trades it all for? His tortured past has made him the man he is. The lifestyle that is forced upon Celeste is not one that Liam can stand by and let her suffer through. The way these two needed each other is mind altering.
Brandy has a way with words and captivating you from the very first page. The on page chemistry can be felt in your soul. The characters and their stories are pure perfection and leave you wanting so much more.
I listened to the audio version of this narrated by Angelina Rocca & Aiden Snow. These two brought these characters to life and I loved every minute of it.

Action packed
Carving Graves is the second book in the KORT series, and it can be read as a standalone, but reading the first book helps with the reading experience.
It’s been a while since I’ve read Burning Ivy, the first book, and I forgot the whole secret society aspect. But I loved it and how they were all so protective of each other; it was like their found family.
Now, Liam and Celeste. Wheew, they hated each other, but they also could not stay away from each other. The tension, the banter, the chemistry between them? So good.
This is action-packed, and it’s full of suspense. There were plot twists I didn’t see coming, and I love when that happens. I enjoyed this, and I can’t wait for the next book.
Audio:
Narrators: Angelina Rocca and Aiden Snow
Narration style: Duet
Both narrators did an amazing job bringing the story and characters to life. They both had the perfect voice for their respective character, and they definitely made this an enjoyable listening experience.

Liam and Celeste
I devoured this book!! I was obsessed with Burning Ivy and couldn’t see how this book could top it but it did! Move over Wells and make room for Liam.
I am obsessed with this book. It was so well written and descriptive, I love Brandy’s writing style. In Burning Ivy I was curious about Liam so I was so excited we got to know more about him in this book.
Liam and Celeste are perfect for each other. I loved their story. They had the best banter and chemistry. Celeste was such a great FMC. She was strong and loyal but she went through so much in this book. I really felt for her and how she was broken but trying to always be strong for everyone else. I was so happy with her character growth.
Liam was the ideal morally grey MMC. He was possessive, obsessed, but then also had a soft side and was vulnerable with Celeste and I honestly ate it up.
I also really enjoy the found family aspect of the book. The group as a whole has the best banter. Celeste and Ivy would do anything for each other.
This book had me on my toes!! I was literally screaming at the end and my mouth dropped! There were so many twists and secrets revealed that I did not see coming and I could not get enough.
I listened to the audio of this book and the narrators did a fantastic job! Aiden Snow was perfect for Liam!!! I also enjoyed Angelica Rocca for Celeste. Both of the narrators really became the characters, and it made me not want to stop listening.

Currently on ch 25
I love the plot so far…and I’ve always been open-minded in regard to narrators bc I haven’t read any of these books..
However, I did listen to Burning Ivy first and I think that’s why I’m disappointed in Celeste in this book-in the 1st book her personality was more outgoing, especially in conversations with Ivy directly; and she was more snippy when the crew showed up in Paris.
So far, Celeste is disappointing me-I know we’re supposed to get more insight to her thoughts (and actually I relate to these thoughts) but even when she has conversations with Ivy or any of the guys now, she comes off as very self conscious and has a lot of self doubt so far when she’s interacting with any of the guys…I guess in this book I expected more of her based on her former personality

Snick...Flick...Flame! Loved this!!!
Carving Graves is book #2 in the K.O.R,T. series and it is just as thrilling as book #1. **If you haven't read book #1, you are definitely getting spoilers with this story. Liam puts on a mask to hide years of abuse and pain, never showing his real self, never getting close to anyone. Until Celeste Carver. She's got a job to do for her family...marry a politician. She and Liam butt heads until that heated passion finds them in Smexytown. Another age-gap, uber protective, dark romance filled with suspense, intrigue and betrayal. This is a standalone with no cliffhanger. Just a sweet little tease for Ty's story!
The narration is *chef's kiss* perfect! Aiden Snow and Angelina Rocca bring ALL the Liam and Celeste vibes to their performance. This duo is 5/5 spice-filled stars!!

The Game changer and His Ace
Where do I begin? First one of my favorite tropes which is an addictive enemies-to-lovers romance that completely captivated me. Celeste and Liam are unforgettable—she’s the polished, duty-bound "princess" hiding her cracks, and he’s the dangerously unhinged cabal leader who sees straight through her mask. Their chemistry is explosive, and the tension between them is electric as they navigate corruption, chaos, and a game where the stakes are life and death.
The story is packed with twists that kept me on edge, especially with lines like “Never let them see. Always keep them guessing. Play their game.” ringing true for both characters. Two of my favorite narrators, Angelina Rocca and Aiden Snow, brought so much depth to Celeste and Liam—her vulnerability and his raw intensity felt so real. Their performances made this already gripping story impossible to pause.
I'm patiently waiting for Tytan's story...

Amazing!
🎧The only thing better than reading Liam and Celeste's story is listening to Liam and Celeste’s story. Holy moly the tension and chemistry between these 2. I loved the duet narration between Aiden Snow and Angelina Rocca. Listening to Liam growl "Mine" is an experience! 🥵
I was able to submerse myself into this audiobook. Aiden and Angelina really brought out the emotion
and tension between the characters. They played amazingly off of each other and made the story flow so well. I absolutely loved listening to this book.
Story Review:
Another strong FMC in the KORT series! Celeste is Ivy's best friend and she's just as badass Ivy. Celeste and Ivy are the calm to each others storm and really compliment each other.
I didn't think I could love Liam more after Burning Ivy, but boy was I wrong. Liam was amazing helping Celeste navigate her family dynamics and figuring out what she wanted for herself.. him
I swear Brandy created one of the best found family groups I've ever read. Between Ivy, Wells, Liam, Ty, snd Gage- they can't be beat. I can't wait to see Ty and Rena's story next!!

Finally Liam
Narrators Angelina Rocco and Aiden Snow
Fantastic, excellent duet narrating made me love the story even more than I already did. Brought this story even more to life.
Liam's story, I loved him in Burning Ivy. Here in his story, he and Celeste had my full attention. Like book one there are several twists along with suspense and keeps you wondering what is next. Plus, we get the side characters aka found family Ivy, Wells, Tyler and Gage and more. There is all kinds of everything. Look forward to the next installment.
