About this listen

I made a mistake. At sixteen years old I fell for the wrong man.

Callum Torrio. Ruthless billionaire. Dangerous villain. My best friend's father.

At twenty one, I gave up hope that he would ever notice me. He’s twenty years older than me and an arms dealer for the mob. The smart choice would be to forget he ever existed.

But that’s not possible. His icy blue gaze, sculpted physique, and huge rough hands play a vivid part in my dreams.

Then one night everything changes. Every fantasy I ever had, he brings to life. Dominant and possessive, he praises and worships me. He makes me feel like a woman, when all my life I’ve felt sheltered and controlled.

But Callum has dark secrets and a past that refuses to let go. I knew he was a bad man, but I never would have anticipated this…

This dark romance is the first in a three-book series. It contains dark themes and things that may be triggering to some. Please avoid if you don't like possessive, controlling antiheroes.

I always like a good posessive MMC. Their story flows and crashes often, keeping the book going. Many plot twists too. I'm not entirely sure the FMC has a personality, but it was fun enough that I grabbed the second book to see how the cliffhanger pans out.

Perfectly fine 3.5 stars
