DARK READ ALERT with an anti-hero!!! Ooooh what a warning by the authors. Eeeeeeeeep! And it’s written by two tried-and-true authors (one that shocked the HECK out of me in the past and thrilled me to no end) so you know I’m intrigued (and a little scared!!) of this one! It’s a “serial” BUT!! All three books are coming out in June & July, and super-bargain priced, so barely any waiting required. Just a thrill (and I’m thinking a gasp-worthy one). I hope. 😉 PLUS!!! All three installments are super-bargain priced.

Highly Recommended Mafia Romance Books
THIS LIST HAS BEEN UPDATED 03-26-2020!! 😀 P.S. After this list, if you’re looking for even more? Check out the entire “Mafia Romance” category on my blog. 😀
After our latest BIG HIT mafia read (and a recent reader question about an upcoming mafia book), we’ve been getting a bunch of requests for more mafia-book recommendations. There are a TON out there, but there are some that really stand out in the crowd.
And while I used to refer my friends and fellow readers to my “Top Illicit Bad Boys” list (which is loaded in various types of “bad guys” including mafia men), this genre really has it’s own HUGE following now, and sometimes we’re just in the mood for a wealthy mob-boss, and no other “bad-boy” or even “bad-guy” will do!
Kristen Ashley – Chaos Series Reading Order
UPDATED September 21st 2020!!!
Are you looking for more motorcycle club romance reads? Do you love a real bad boy (and I mean raw, gritty and unapologetic). You know… THAT kind of bad boy. 😉 Where the lines are blurred between good, bad and potential anti-hero. Or maybe he’s good at heart, but still… has his own way of doing things. A bit of shock value, if you will. And all of that dominating alpha male x everyone in the compound.
Yep. Testosterone a-plenty in Kristen Ashley’s books but her latest Motorcycle Man took the cake! And we loved it so much (and so did the author) that it spawned a spin-off. THIS ONE!!
My Top Thirteen Most Illicit Bad Boys, Misfits & Mobsters of Romance Books
I recently received this email (from “Em”) and thought to myself, OMG YES!!! I have a TON of awesome suggestions!
Hi Maryse!!! I was wondering if you know of any good mafia/mob/organised crime, bad boys romance type books?? I might drop a comment on your Bad Boys & Rock Stars thread and see if anyone else knows of any too!
In fact, I realized that some of my absolute favorite books involve some “shadier” (yet redeemable) characters. And I’m not just talking my usual tattooed bad boys that still fit within today’s social standards. I’m talking about the disillusioned social outcasts, the extreme nonconformists, the hustlers, and those that make their living on the streets. From the homeless to the richest mob bosses, the high-end escorts to the underground street fighters.
Book Review – Comfort Object by Annabel Joseph
Comfort Object (Comfort series)
Well this was fun in a “can’t-put-it-down-even-though-I’m-cringing-and-so-often-appalled” kind of way! WARNING. This book is not for everyone. I had mixed reactions from some of my reader friends (some who really enjoyed it and some who hated the “hero” far too much to enjoy it). And while I can agree that this kind of bad-boy would probably have anyone running for the hills, in real life (he’s just so UGH!!!!), I will admit from the safety of my couch, I read through it like a fiend. I just had to see where this was going, and how it was going to end. But please. Don’t go into this book lightly. As I re-read some scenes for this review, I’m back to being appalled again. All in one sitting, you get the whole effect, but piecing it out like this… YIKES!!!
