About this listen
Lies can be merciful. It just depends on the why.
Anna: I knew the second I saw him, my life would change forever. When my brother offers me as payment to Nico Fury, the king of the Vipers, how can I refuse? Tattooed, built, and tall, he was the only man I saw when I walked into the room. It was like he occupied all the available space, sitting on his throne of blood, sweat, and lies. Nerves assailed me, but I owed my brother too much to let anything happen to him.
One night. That was all. But it would leave me wrecked. Actions always had consequences. Six months later, my brother was killed by a rival organization, and now they were after me. There was only one place I could go to keep my unborn baby safe. I just hoped the king would be merciful.

Story
I had love once and lost it. Never again. That’s why I told myself she’s off limits—forbidden. It doesn’t matter that she’s as sexy and courageous as she is unexpected. Or that I can’t get her out of my mind. I’m not her happily ever after. So, I’ll help her investigate why people are going missing in the desert. But I’ll keep my hands—and my heart—to myself.

Story
I'm not a worldly woman. I'm not cultured, well-traveled, or well educated. I'm just a housewife. A mother. I'm the woman with the handsome husband, beautiful daughter, the large house. If you saw it from the outside, you'd probably think I have the perfect life. You would most definitely be wrong. But I don't blame you. We all see what we want to see, turning a blind eye to what others want to stay hidden. Especially when it comes to love. They say love is blind. But I'm more apt to say it's wretched. Love is what made me stay. But love is also what saved me.

I’m just so exhausted—always living on the edge of desperation, one paycheck away from ruin. But this new job… It could be the fresh start I need. It could change everything. The contract is only for three months, but if I keep my head down, work hard, and prove myself, maybe I could stay longer. Maybe I could make Black Mountain Lodge my home. As I pull down the gravel drive, surrounded by the forest and mountains and bright blue skies, I feel something I haven’t felt in a while. I feel hope.

An unlikely savior with large, possessive hands, a voice as deep and rich as dark chocolate, and a tongue as quick and hot as lightning. The second Avel tossed me over his broad shoulder, I knew I could never walk away. He made me feel small, safe, and protected, but only because there was no man as dangerous as him. He offered me protection, but not without consequences. Because once you join the mafia, you can never leave, and once you get pregnant with the boss's baby, you belong to him forever.

People that do bad things for good reasons. People that do bad things for bad reasons. First, I knew that Shasha Semyonov was a bad man. One that did bad things for bad reasons. That didn’t mean that I was rational when it came to him.

And I can't afford to save her myself. In comes Arsen Adamov with a devil's deal on a silver platter. Have his baby. Then walk away—no strings attached. I'd do anything for my mom. And spending a night with my gorgeous, dangerous, billionaire boss isn't exactly torture.

It's the dog's fault, really. If this untrained Great Dane I'm walking had any manners at all, I never would've ended up here: With my leash wrapped around the most gorgeous man I've ever seen. Lucky for me, the guy is a good sport about it. (Although his joke that “Dogs take after their owners” hits a little too close to home when Rufus starts humping his leg.) He leaves me with his business card and a smile that makes my knees weak.

Possessive
C. D, Gori story is entertaining, exciting, steamy. Nico was obsessed with Anna, even though he never met her.He used her brother as a pawn, to use him as bait for Anna.He’s dominant, possessive, manipulating,Anna is smart, sweet, understanding, Their connection is hot, electric, and very steamy, One thing that could tear them apart is Nico’s lies, lies of omission could tear them apart.Ellie Somali and Mick Fanning are new narrators for me. I could feel every emotion of angst, anger and love. Very well done

Nico & Anna
Another wonderful book written by C.D. Gorri! After reading the Billionaire's series, I knew I had to read this new series, and man, did it not disappoint!
I devoured this book in a matter of hours!
For all the girls falling for the bad guys, this one is for you!
Nico and Anna may be my favorite couple that C.D. Gorri has written!
And the spice 🥵
I can't wait for the next book!!

Mafia romance
Merciful Lies by C.D. Gorri is awesome dark mafia romance. Elle Sonali and Mick Fanning did an excellent job with the narration. The story is entertaining, interesting, enjoyable, steamy, sexy, engaging, great chemistry between the two main characters, exciting, shocking, and more. Nico Fury is king of the Vipers an underworld organization. When Anna brother needs to pay off a debt he uses her to do it. Later her brother is killed by another underworld organization. Anna seeks help from Nico Fury because the other organization wants her dead too. Will Nico help her? What will the cost be? Can she hind the truth from him? When he find out she is pregnant what will he do then? I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. Highly recommend

Insta-Love & Mafia King!
I really enjoyed Merciful Love! The story was engaging, the romance was steamy, and the characters had great chemistry. The only reason for the half-star drop is that the male narration took a little getting used to—but once I did, it worked well.
I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Easy Read/listen
Really great read that had spice and plot to keep me interested from start to finish. Nico was an over-the-top possessive hero that you couldn't help but love, I really love a morally gray MMC especially when they have a little bit of a Robin Hood complex. There was a little bit laugh out loud moments, The narration was perfect with the narrators chosen. Will defiantly pick up other books and Audiobooks from this author.

fabulous audiobook
Wow! Just wow! The moment I started to read this book, I couldn't put it down. I could move until the end. I was so captive by this book that I couldn't do anything until I finished it. Nico...criminal, dangerous, protective, sexy, and all man. I'm swooning over this bad boy man.
The audiobook is so hot to listen to. Grab at fan while you listen to Elle Sonali and Mick Fanning brings Anna and Nico hot steamy story to life. I loved it!

His Love Burns Hotter Than Fire
This was my first book by this author, and I am completely obsessed! As the first in the series, it sets the tone perfectly—dark, intense, and utterly captivating. There’s nothing wrong with a little unhealthy obsession (in books, of course 😉), and the mafia king delivers it flawlessly. Ruthless to the world, but a devoted, possessive force to the woman he loves—an all-in, no-holds-barred kind of man. Yes. Please.
No pointless games, no unnecessary drama—just raw, burning desire wrapped in danger and devotion. The tension was electric, the spice was scorching, and every moment was dripping with intensity. More of this, please! The narration kept me hooked from start to finish, making this dark, obsessive love story even more irresistible. I need the next book now!

Excellent Story! Amazing Narrators! I Loved It!
OMG… I absolutely LOVED this Audiobook. I was already in love with the story when I read it. But this audio version is like the icing on the cake!
The narrator for Anna was amazing! Her vocals truly brought the character of Anna to life.
The narrator for Nico Fury was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! As someone originally from NY but spent just as much time in Newark, NJ, his Jersey accent was spot on! It made the story more enjoyable.
I highly recommend this audiobook. It’s an excellent companion to listen to while you have the paperback or ebook in hand.

The Two narrators are Fantastic
I have read the story but listening WOW that took it to another level of goodness. Loved the narrator for Anna she is clear-spoken and brings the character to life.
The narrator for Nico blows that character out of the ballpark.
I love dual narration books and these two remind me why. Grab it and listen for yourself it's super enjoyable.
