The first book in P. Rayne's upcoming Mafia Academy series features an enemies-to-lovers arranged marriage between Marcelo Costa and Mirabella La Rosa while they attend college at the secretive and private Sicuro Academy.
Vow of Revenge by P. Rayne is now live!
Nothing ruins a perfect day like your dead fiancé showing up in the middle of your first class.
Mirabella La Rosa
When my father arranged for me to marry the next in line to lead the Costa crime family, I swore I'd do anything to escape that fate. I have way more to offer my family than being some man's arm candy, producing heirs, and making appearances at weddings and baptisms.
Marcelo Costa might be my fiancé, but he'll never be my husband.
Somehow, I get lucky because he and his father are killed in a car bombing. Not only do I not have to go from being a mafia princess to a mafia wife, but now I can attend college at the Sicuro Academy--an affluent private college created for mafia children like me.
I'm so excited. I've moved into my dorm room with my best friend, put on the uniform and am ready to learn. But all my plans come to a screeching halt when he shows up on campus alive and well, seeking revenge on those that crossed him.
Marcelo Costa
The look of shock on my fiancée's face when I walk into the classroom at the Sicuro Academy gives me more pleasure than it should.
Mirabella made it clear she didn't want to marry me, and she's a problem to be dealt with for sure. But now, she's the smaller of my two problems.
The only reason I'm at the Sicuro Academy is because my investigation into the bomb that killed my father and almost took me out has led me here.
So I'll allow Mirabella to stay at the academy while I track down my father's murderer, but once I've brought that person to my own particular brand of justice I'll remove her from campus and make her my wife.
And no amount of pleading on her part will change my mind.

Jimmy's always been the one who protected me—at any cost. I was content to let him clean up my messes. And when he kept his promise to get us out of our hometown and living the lives we always dreamed of, I was happy to pretend everything would be okay... for a while.
While Jimmy was able to leave the past behind, mine felt like a tattoo I could never scrub clean.
Jimmy thinks he can fix me—he tries, and tries, and tries.
Sometimes love isn't enough to heal all the wounds from the past. Sometimes even your savior thinks you're not worth saving.
And he'd be right... until everything changed.

From NYT and USA Today best-selling author A.L. Jackson comes a close-proximity single-parent stand-alone romance about a woman on the run and the man who will do anything to save her....
Jud Lawson found me stranded in the rain.
Broken down on the side of the road in a deserted neighborhood with my piece-of-crap car.
I wasn’t looking for a hero, and definitely not one who looks like him. An obscenely hot mountain of a man who screams danger.
But I have little choice other than climbing onto the back of his bike.
One look at Salem Aguilar, and I’m hooked.
The girl is devastation wrapped in a black, seductive bow. A knockout. A dream.
Turns out, she needs a job, and I need the help.
Now I have a vixen strutting around my shop, and I’m the fool who’s itching to reach out and take what he can’t have.
But neither of us can ignore the burning attraction.
The fire that leads to a kiss. A kiss that has us falling into my bed. The connection that has me wanting the one thing I’d never thought I could have again.
Because monsters like me don’t deserve love.
Only Salem has a secret, too.
She’s been running for years, and her past just caught up to us....
My Review
This is the second book in the Redemption Hills Series. Jud and Salem's story is beautiful, emotional, full of angst, secrets, and unpredictable twists and turns. I liked the well crafted plot, and the suspense. Salem strong, smart, and determined. She definitely is a fighter, very protective, and caring. Jud is handsome, enigmatic, and protective. They are both are amazing characters. The supporting characters are great. The kids are so cute!! This is an excellent second chance at love. Impossible to put it down. Joe Arden and Andi Arndt did an excellent job with the narration.
He might not be the devil, but working under him for six weeks is my idea of hell.
Hayes Flynn is an arrogant jerk known best for his scotch habit and the way he spreads his British “charm” all over Hollywood, never with the same woman twice.
He’s the last person I want to work for - except he has a face I can’t look away from, and the longer we’re together, the harder he is to hate. Because under that smug exterior is a heart he doesn’t want to show - one that was badly broken a decade earlier.
A part of me wants to fix it for him before I leave…but can I do it without breaking my own in the process?
My Review
Tali and Hayes is beautifully written, and captivating. Their story is heartwarming, sizzling, and sweet. Tali is beautiful, caring, and supportive. Hayes is handsome, arrogant, charming, enigmatic, and hardworking. They are opposites attract. I liked their slow burn romance, their flirting, and their banter. They share a sizzling hot chemistry. This is a great office romance. Impossible to put it down. Rose Dioro did an excellent job with the narration. I like her voice. I enjoyed it! Looking forward to listening to The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea, Drew's story.
He doesn't deserve happiness, but he holds it in his hands. A woman he loves. A child. The past threatens to rip them away. He risks losing them forever.
Jane Mendoza is determined to protect the people she loves from every threat--the mysterious arsonist, the corrupt police force. The darkest danger comes from a place she never expects.
She risks more than her newfound family. She risks her life.

Once I confess my true identity and convince her I’m not a creep - just a thief - it’s only a matter of time before my sexy smile and quick wit claim her heart, her hand in marriage, and the perfect life.

This story contains sensitive subject matter.
My Review:
OMG! My heart!! For Lucy, is such the perfect title for this wonderful story. Emmett, Tatum, and Lucy's story is so beautifully written, heart wrenching, and heartwarming afterward. Emmett is such a fantastic character, caring, supportive, and protective. Tatum is a beautiful character. Lucy, their daughter, is a lovely young woman. The storyline is breathtakingly emotional, filled with drama, loss, grief, and love. I love the beautiful and hopeful ending. Connor Crais did an outstanding job with the narration. I enjoyed it, and I HIGHLY recommend it! This is definitely one of my favorite books. I love Jewel E. Ann's writing, she never disappoints.
Kerrigan Belmond has everything I don't have. A name that opens doors, more money than god, an Oxford education, and rumors that she's caught the eye of Spencer Byrd, the heir to one of England'smost powerful aristocratic families. I'm an orphan, running from a tragedy I can't face. Being mistaken for her is flattering until her father arrives at my door with an indecent proposal.
His daughter has fled her perfect life, and he wants me to step into her shoes until she can be coaxed back to her pedestal.
The arrangement is simple. For one year, I will be Kerrigan Belmond. The perfect daughter. The charming socialite. The ideal future wife. For one year, I will do anything she would do. And for one year, I will keep the attention of Spencer at all costs.
I can't say no, but as soon as I meet Spencer and his brother I realize the mistake I've made. To the outside world, the Byrds are London society and Spencer is the golden boy groomed to become prime minister. Behind closed doors, his family is as twisted and tangled as the web I'm walking into.
Spencer demands loyalty. He expects discretion. And he's ready to claim the woman he's been promised in every way. Keeping him happy means I might lose more than a year of my life, but I can't turn down the proposition. Not with what the Belmonds have promised me in return.

Geneva is married to her high school sweetheart. He's always the first person to read her books. Sometimes, he reads as she writes them. Last year, they were surprised by finding out Geneva was pregnant with their third child. They welcomed a beautiful baby girl in 2020.
This is the first book in The Dynasties Series. This is a great start to the Series. Kate/Kerrigan, Spencer, and Holden's story is original, captivating, and intricate, filled with secrets, lies, and twists and turns. The chemistry is intense, and sizzling. The characters are well developed, and intriguing. The story ends on a cliffhanger, and I can't wait to read Cruel Dynasty.
You name it - I'm fascinated by it. My mom always blamed my overly curious and highly suspicious mind on my dad.
My incredibly overbearing dad.
Mr. No One Is Good Enough For My Daughter has been terrifying my dates since I turned 15.
College is my chance to be free from his control and date any guy I want.
I'm absolutely certain he would hate Slade Wylder - almost as certain as I am that I do too.
Since when have I shied away from trouble?
Slade fascinates me. He lives in a house I'm certain is haunted. His dog is trained as well as any guard I've ever seen. Rumor on campus is that he deals drugs. It would explain a lot.
But it doesn't explain why he saves me from my darkest moment.
It doesn't explain why I can't stop thinking about him.
And the explanation I finally discover is far more dangerous than any rumor.
Out of Love is a stand-alone novel in the highly-acclaimed Jack & Jill Series.
My Review:
Livy and Slade's story is amazingly captivating, and suspenseful! The storyline is filled with unpredictable twists and turns. There is a lot going on in this story. Stephanie kay did a wonderful job with the narration. I enjoyed it!
