A spicy dark Mafia romance from the TikTok sensation

By: J. T. Geissinger

Narrated by: Tara Langella, Troy Duran, Brooke Daniels, Erin Quinn, Michelle Sparks

Brutal Vows is the fourth audiobook in the scorchingly hot mafia romance Queens and Monsters series by USA Today bestselling author J.T. Geissinger, where the fast-paced tension of John Wick meets the high-stakes love of Romeo and Juliet.

Brought to life by a full cast, including Michelle Sparks, Tara Langella, Troy Duran, Brooke Daniels, and Erin Quinn

An Irish mobster with a brutal grudge. An Italian mafia princess with a dark secret. Two enemy empires joined in sacred marriage vows. Let the hating games begin.

Reyna –
If this arrogant Irish mobster my brother sold my niece to thinks I’m going to play nice over this arranged marriage BS, he should think again. I don’t care if this match with the Mob will make my brother capo of the Five Families.

I don’t care how much money, territory, or power it will gain us. I especially don’t care that the Irishman is the sexiest man I’ve ever seen. I won’t allow my innocent niece to suffer the same way I did. Even if I have to kill him.

Spider –
I’m supposed to marry sweet, beautiful Lili. So why can’t I stop thinking about her swamp witch of an aunt? Reyna who hates me. Reyna who challenges me. Reyna with the guts of a Viking, the body of a fertility goddess, and the attitude of a feral cat.

Nothing good can come of what I’m feeling for a woman who’s not the one in the wedding contract I signed. A woman I want so much, I’ll have to burn the whole world down to get.

Critic reviews

Holy smokes! This series just keeps getting better and better! I can always count on this author for a sexy and laugh-out-loud funny romance. She straddles these two extremes so very well (Book Twins Reviews)

Every new story she writes in her Queens and Monsters series just keeps getting better and better! (Bookgasms Book Blog)

Rey is the female main character you want in your books (and your life)

The audiobook is Tara Langella, Erin Quinn, Brooke Daniels, Michelle Sparks and Troy Duran (and his irish accent 🫠)

The last couple in the series is Rey, the Famous italian black widow and Spider/Quinn (the second in command of Declan - book 2 of the series.
I am a real sucker for a badass FMC with a venomous tongue and creative death threats.

The only thing that bothers me is a spoiler so…
I understand that 2 mains characters over 30 (33 and 38 to be precise) wants children but talking about it repetitively for few chapters, was annoying. Since there is no pregnancy until the very end in the epilogue.
