Sinful Vows

Messina Crime Family, Book 1

By: Lilian Harris

Narrated by: Teddy Hamilton, Callie Dalton

I never wanted a wife. No one is safe with me. No one is good enough for my daughter.

But if I want to rule over the wealthiest crime family in New York City, I only have two weeks to find one.

When Elsie broke into my home, I saw an opportunity, so I forced her into a marriage she didn't want.

No one crosses me, not even someone as beautiful as Elsie. She may fight me with that smart mouth, but she will obey me–or return to the hell she came from.

I told her she was mine for a year. Then she'd be free.

But the more I see them together, my daughter and my wife, the more she touches me like I'm worthy, the more I start to wonder, could she be mine?

But when war lands at our feet, when her life’s in jeopardy, I realize I was right all along.

No one is safe with a man like me. Least of all her.

❤️🖤 FIVE STARS PERFECTION I DIDN’T WANT TO END 🖤♥️

I’ve just finished this outstanding book which was phenomenally narrated by Teddy and Callie… and all I can say is wow wow wow, what a full on, suspenseful, full of full of feels listen this was. I couldn’t stop listening to Elise and Michael’s addictive journey and it had all the elements I love in a good well-written Mafia romance. Poor Elise and her friends were snatched from their girls road trip and suffered physical, mental and inhuman abuse for years by some very bad men. And I’m so glad this courageous, strong, damaged (but not broken) heroine sees her chance of freedom, seizes it and ultimately changes her life. Michael is ready to take over from his father as the next Don of New York.. however, this handsome doting single Dad has to find a wife in the next two weeks to accomplish that goal. But he isn’t going to settle with just any willing woman.. he’s been holding out for the ‘right’ woman.. and then a feisty, sassy, desperate, strong but wounded, little dove falls in his lap. And the oh so entertaining and delicious marriage agreement that follows has so many elements I relish.. clashes and push ‘n pulls.. dark and light.. chills and warmth.. sad and happy.. tension-filled and tender.. and chemistry fuelled banter, fireworks and a cocktail of deliciously wicked and wonderful feels. All of it brought to life and given heartbeats by the acting skills of two top tier narrators.

Worth a credit? Abso-freakin-lutely YES.

Single Dad mafia romance

What a great time this audiobook was! Teddy & Callie did an amazing job and did this great mafia romance wonders!!

The spice. Yes, please. 

Him falling harder first.


If you are a mafia romance fan go ahead and set those calendars to snag this audio!

Good story

I enjoyed this book. It was slightly different than a typical love story and I liked that the FMC was given a chance and not looked at poorly after everything she had went through; to no fault of her own. I like that she got love she deserved from not just the MMC but his daughter. I liked the MMC's brother that was in this book and I thought the storyline was interesting. The narrators also did a good job.

awesome

Great story line, loved the whole book. fast pace notslow at all. Spicy Spicy spicy.

Michael & Elsie

Just discovered this author w/ this book & am impressed. It was a very well thought out story, with great depth and decent twists. My only irk was that being Italian, there weren’t any Italian words used in the dialogue. Even generations in, families tend to still use some words even if just for princess or to eat, or to refer to someone as a dumb@ss. But other than that, I was quite impressed and also affected. The beginning of the book was heart wrenching and I almost put it down, but it was so fast paced (thankfully) that ai was able to get through it.
Writing about dark themes is one thing, but to be able to do so and evoke solid emotions is a talent and this author has talent and I can’t wait to read the rest of this series and then go back and read about Jade. The narration was great, but of course Teddy Hamilton never disappoints.
