Trust.

Family.
The tangled web of mafia life.
We grew up together. Me, Eden, my brother Tristian.
He was always the safe bet, the sure thing, the good guy.
And me? Well, I was the Casanova, the killer who flirted with anyone and anything, breaking Eden’s heart again and again.

We both loved her.
Mind.
Body.
Soul.
Until I gifted her to my brother as if she meant nothing, when she meant everything to me.
Tristian was safer.
Better.
Could give her the life I never would be able to.

It was my turn to claim what had always been MINE to begin with.

Full length Standalone Romantic Suspense Novel

FALLING FOR THE VILLAIN
“Play for me, Juliet…”

Those four words whispered in my ear again and again until I craved what I used to fear.
Such a simple demand from my captor—the man who stole me and refused to tell me why he wouldn’t let me go.

I was his.

He made me need him, just as much as he needed me.
I broke all the rules of the golden prison he put me in.

During the day he ruled his dark, seedy world.
His subjects and me.

During the night—he bowed before my feet.

Have you ever wondered what happened to the villains in all the fairy tales you read?
You’ll soon find out.

It all started when he kidnapped me and made me his pet.
And it all ended with me…

Calling him master.

*This story is not for the faint of heart and may be uncomfortable for some readers. But, then again, stepping outside of your comfort zone may be exactly the thing you need…

    Two phenomenal authors wrote their first mafia romance together. They wrote flawlessly and it flowed so good. I honestly couldn’t figure out who wrote what. Romeo was definitely one of my favorite alpha hero’s. Protecting what he loved was such a turn on! The sex was so hot and their chemistry was off the charts amazing. You could tell they had sparks from the very beginning. The storyline was not at all what I was expecting. It was so good and hooked me right away. The flashbacks did get confusing at times but I was able to figure it out. The angst, of course was there throughout the book. Book 2 was different from any other books they have written. This was a very dark storyline with triggers. It was definitely twisted, steamy 🔥and full of angst. I was intrigued from the beginning, there were times it got difficult to read but I pushed through and I’m so glad I did. I thought it was well written and easily flowed together. Now to cure my book hangover! If you like DARK this is for you!!!

    Falling For The Villain 4 Stars I wish I actually had the correct words to do this book justice. Actually, even if I had the correct words, I probably couldn’t use them without being a spoil sport. So please bare with me, as I try to navigate this review. I can honestly say without a doubt that I have NEVER read a book even remotely close to this one. Let me be the first to say, I’ve read dark books before, and now that I’ve read this one? It’s actually laughable thinking I knew what a dark book was. Shooo weee, Falling For The Villain is without a doubt the definition of a dark book. So take that warning for what it is. In all honesty, after reading the first couple chapters I didn’t know if I could do it, but I am so glad I pushed through. This duo of authors took me to a place I never even imagined. I was intrigued. I was scared, but mostly I was curious. Robinson and Van Dyken’s great world building opened my eyes to the curiosity and change. They crafted a well developed story that was perfectly plotted out with dialogue that even had me submissive. I quickly learned that there is a fine line between love and hate, and I loved to hate Donovan. Falling For The Villain is not an easy book in any sense of the word, but it is a book that will not be forgotten. It was such a nice change of pace. I actually really enjoyed it. I even put my own stamp of recommending it as well. ********************* Mafia Casanova 4 Stars I have a serious obsession with M.Robinson, so when I found out she was collabing with very known author to say I was stoked, was putting it mildly. I am very well versed when it comes to the queen of angst but to be frank, I have never read anything by Van Dyken and I am quite ashamed because she is so well known in the Romance world and not only that, they both collabed so wonderfully together that I couldn’t tell who wrote what. It was almost like they are one in the same. Now that is something I thought I would never see and now that I have, I am gonna go all grabby hands on ALL of Van Dyken's published books. With that said, I shall continue onto the greatness of all that Mafia Casanova entails. Mafia Casanova is one heck of a complex book. From the storyline to the characters, it was almost like hitting a brick wall over and over. I'm not kidding when I say, if this would have been any other author besides Robinson I would have put this book down within the first two chapters and not picked it back up for one reason and one reason only, and no I am not going to disclose what that is because umm... hello spoiler! I knew I had to push through because I knew with Robinson's words included she would help me wrap my mind around it, and she did. It was not easy, but I can say I do understand it now. While I am at it, as I previously mentioned, Robinson and Van Dyken collabed so well together, I couldn't tell you who wrote what. That in itself takes mad skill. The writing in general was sensational, and everything developed and flowed in a timely manner. I was also a fan of how this duo of authors wove the past into the storyline as well. I could feel the emotions from the past, and I seen the how and the why and how it affected the present, if that makes sense?. I guess that plays into the depth of Mafia Casanova and since we are talking about the depth I am going for straight honesty. Robinson and Van Dyken carved my heart out and left me wide open on many occasions. Man, I felt this book from all POVs. It was like it grabbed me around the neck like a noose and left me gasping for air. Let me not forget the suspense. Holy moly! I was on the edge of my seat so nervous because I did NOT know how Mafia Casanova was going to play out. Romeo god Romeo. I wanted to warp my hands around his neck and strangle the life out of him. He is an alpha - a hole that grew on me BIG time. His reasoning was not always right, but he went with it anyways knowing what the outcome would be. Overall, this was a wonderful book and I look forward to this duo of authors collabing together in the future.
