Publisher's Summary

A top 30 Amazon best seller

King (noun):
1) Having the highest rank in a dominance hierarchy
2) The most powerful man in a group
3) Liam Black

He was a stranger to me, a dark and dangerous presence who materialized from the shadows one rainy night to save me from a vicious attack. I didn’t know his name or where he was from. All I knew was that the only place I’d ever felt safe was in his arms.

But safety is an illusion. And not every savior is a hero.

And - as I’d soon find out - having a king save your life comes with a price.

Liam Black wanted something from me in return.

Duet & Dual Narration!!!!

A sucker for a mafia romance with a duet narration. Liam is so sexy and Troy performance is breathtaking.

Another Banger from Geissinger

I almost always love Geissingers work and especially her mafia romances. She balances believability with the intensity and troupes we love perfectly.

I put off listening to this one after listening to the sample, because personally I just wasn't a huge fan of the accent the female narrator uses for the FMC, it's not a bad performance by any means just a personal preference thing, but once I got used to it it didn't really bother me. Troy Duran is always great and at least to me (a non Irish person) his accent sounds pretty good. It's also Duet narration, which I love.

It's nothing crazy plot-wise, in fact, there isn't much of a subplot at all. Geissinger's sort of spin-off series 'Queens and Monsters definitely generally has a bit more going on that front if that's something your looking for, but in a relatively short and sweet book like this, there didn't need to be. It was all about the whirlwind romance with some minor plot points to move things along and that was fine by me since.

Wow! Wow! Wow!

I absolutely loved this book. From the very beginning I knew this book was going to be a favourite of mine. It was wonderfully written,the characters had depth and the story drew me in with its mystery. An absolute five star read. Now off to read Killian’s story I’m expecting great things...

I loved this book (beautifully cruel) a few months ago when I bought the ebook - it was totally a 5⭐️ read. I didn’t think anything could make it any better but oh my the audio version was to die for 🔥both of the narrators out did themselves with such convincing performances. Troy Duran is a new narrator to me and the very second he spoke his first word as Liam I was hooked. His voice is so deep and soulful, full of power and all the chemistry that comes with Liams character. The perfect choice I only hope that we get to hear him again voicing Killian. If I could give more than 5⭐️ I would it was totally worth it ❤️

Going on my favorite list

Just loved it - story was great - duel narration was super by both narrators. My first novel by J.T. Geissinger won’t be my last - I’m going to start book 2 now.
