When She Loves

The Fallen, Book 4

By: Gabrielle Sands

Narrated by: Teddy Hamilton, Michelle Sparks

The most brutal don in the city has a weakness: me.

I never wanted the life my parents tried to force on me, so I vowed I’d never marry a mobster.

Yet here I am, walking down the aisle toward mobster of the century, all to save my sister.

Rafaele Messero. Cold, ruthless, and irritatingly handsome.

Not that I’ve noticed.

After all, this marriage is the end of all my hopes and dreams.

And for him, it’s nothing more than a calculated business move.

At least that’s what I think, until he snaps at the priest to hurry up so that he can kiss me.

He’s known as the ice prince, but when his lips crash down on mine, all I feel is searing heat.

That’s when I know I’m in serious trouble.

My plan was to keep my distance from Rafaele, but he’s not interested in that.

He’s interested in me.

Now that I know what he craves, I vow to never give it to him.

I will never submit to my husband, no matter how relentlessly he tries to conquer me.~~When She Loves is an arranged marriage mafia romance, with no cheating and an HEA.

Rafe & Cleo

I absolutely love the way Teddy and Michelle brought these characters to life. The DUET was perfect !!!!

Best of the series!!

When she unravels had been my favorite book of Gabrielle Sands till this one came across. I usually wait till the audio but I couldn’t with this one. I read it first and then second the audio came out, I used my credit faster than it could download lol.and as with all audio experiences, the narrators being the story to life.

Cleo like her sisters has lived a very cold and trauma-filled life. She’s become accustomed to being denigrated and not aiming for much. In comes Rafaele, who has his own set of trauma, but is able to awaken Cleo’s true personality while helping her heal her self esteem. A beautiful arranged marriage mafia with a good balance of suspense, emotion and interesting spice.

The narrators hit it out of the park for me. Teddy Hamilton is a fav and I know I will never be disappointed when he’s narrating a book. Michelle Sparks is a new narrator to me but she gave so much life to Cleo’s strong personality and her sense of humor. Definitely worth the listen.

Excellent

what a great series, I really enjoyed every character, and books as a whole .very refreshing the stories are different thankyou

best of the series

Loved the emotional development of these 2 characters. Their damage, struggle and ultimate reconciliation felt real and meaningful.

loved it!

This has to be my favorite of the series, something about Cleo and her spunk that I love reading. Glimpses of her from the past books just gave us a taste of what was to come and it was great! Arranged marriage trope is one of my favorite ones and this did not disappoint; this is also an age gap trope - although not too much- it feels like more because she is the wild child and he is the serious head of the family. From early on Rafaele was intrigued by her so when it becomes an issue with the sister he was supposed to marry (from book 3 when she falls - and if you haven't read it, stop and read that the first three then come back) he accepts the new proposal to wed Cleo instead.
I read the ebook first then listened to the audiobook both are really good. This is definitely a book I can read over again.

Narrators

The Narrators were awesome with their reading and dialogue and skills of changing their tones with each character. The story itself kept my attention the entire time.
