About this listen

Dangerous and feared.

Those words describe my future husband. Who just so happens to also be my ex-boyfriend.

It’s complicated. Two years ago, he broke my heart when he left me to do his father’s bidding. After months of crying, I finally accepted he was gone and wasn’t going to look back. That maybe he’d never loved me at all. I never wanted to see Luca again.

Now, a cruel twist of fate has signed me over to him in a heartless deal. I’m his. He thinks he did me a favor, but I feel like I’ve been given a death sentence. He doesn't want to get married because he still loves me. No, he did it for money. More power.

I’m going to be a mafia wife. And there’s only one way out of it. Death.

But as it turns out, someone else doesn’t want me to marry the ruthless Luca Bianchi. And if he has his way, I’ll see that early grave.

Due to mature content and themes, this audiobook is recommended for listeners aged eighteen and over. Code of Silence is an arranged marriage and a complete standalone. This novel may contain triggers.

I feel like with this one this just didn't hit for me but that's my personal opinion as I'm always touch and go when it comes to Mafia Romance. It kind of has that enemies to lovers vibe but it's not exactly she just has a lot of resentment towards him more than anything but always bend to his will anyway because shes so in love and people keep telling her this is all she's wanted... if you like the meek little girl obsessed with the man and the man planning this big chest move just to get the girl you will eat this up.

Mafia Romance girlies eat your heart out.
