In Silence She Screams, an all-new dark mafia romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Amo Jones is coming November 4th, and we have the incredible cover!
Love will never die if it exists on the lips of death. I often thought about this while I was locked inside my Doll House in Patience. Groomed every second of every day, they made sure to cover all of the darkness lurking in my soul with the false guise of perfection. The soul is fickle. Naked to the public eye and only visible to the owner, a soul bleeds every time itโs put through pain. But when thatโs hidden, it spreads. The trick is to protect it from reaching your brain. It was too late for me. Until I met them. One was an Elite King. One was a Brother of Kiznitch. Both were liars. Iโm Lilith Patience, The Sorcerer of Death and daughter of one of the most feared organizations known to man. After being thrust into the notorious world of Midnight Mayhem, I found myself coiled around a past that I want to forget and a future that could destroy me. I love two men, and they love me as much as they love each other, but when the demons of my past tighten their grip around my throat, will I finally let them strip away the layers of perfection to get to my rotten, withered soul? Maybe. Or maybe theyโll die trying.

Excerpt
โIโฆโ I didnโt even know. I couldnโt explain what I didnโt know. โAsk me about Jake in a different way.โ โThere is no other way.โ โYou know there is! Ask it in a different way.โ I shoved up to my feet. This was the fight here. I was sick of the killing. I could not handle one more body, especially not someone I knew. My chest heaved. โAsk it in a different way.โ I liked Jake. I was hurt by what he said, but he wasnโt on my list anymore. I frowned. โWhat happened with Cavers?โ โNone of your business!โ he erupted, his hands flying in the air, but he was moving farther away from me. His back hit the wall, and he let me see him, how haunted he was, how stricken. He let it all out for me to see and read, though I wasnโt sure he knew it. โI donโt run my decisions through some pussy I like plowing.โ Okay, now I was mad. โTake that back,โ I said quietly. He swore, low and long. Then he moved, flipping a chair into the wall. It impaled there, and the wall held it. It looked like an abstract piece of art. โTake it back!โ I clipped out, folding my arms over my chest. He looked away. I didnโt know what was going on here, but fuck him if he didnโt take back calling me pussy he liked to plow. I screamed, โTake it back!โ โNo!โ He was across the room and in my face in the next second. I braced myself, but he didnโt touch me. He stopped just short of it, his breath in my cheek, his eyes taking me in, scanning my face. He was panicking. I saw it now, lurking there. Good! That filled me with satisfaction. My chest started pounding. No, that was my heart. It was thumping in my chest, getting stronger, fasterโa steady and powerful beat now. I could feel it all the way to my toesโin my fingers, my neck. His eyes lingered on my lips. He couldnโt look away. Stark hunger flashed in his eyes, and he raised a hand, holding it in the air. It curved gently, as if he wanted to touch my neck, or the side of my face. But he didnโt move. He just held it there, a few inches from my skin. His eyes lifted to mine. โYou bitch.โ My heart still pounded, trying to reach him. โYouโre a murdering asshole,โ I whispered back, seething. โWhat?โhe sneered. โYou want to fuck now? Forget you put a fucking gun to your head?โ โDonโt kill Jake.โ He pressed into me, his eyes wild, on the edge of control. โWhy?โ His breath was hot on me. He bent down, his eyes glittering now. Then he found his control. He rested one hand against the wall, next to my head. The other found my hip and slid up, moving under my shirt, raising it. God. I almost moaned. Wetness flooded me, and I started to throb. I wanted him. So fucking bad. He bent and his lips grazed over mine, my cheeks, my chin. Tingles raced through me. Jesus. I wanted him deep inside of me. I shifted, pressing against him, and both of us groaned from the contact. I began moving, a slow grind, and he was quiet, grinding back. This was different from the other times. The terms had flipped. Roles were changing. Everything was being upended between us.
I pondered on what to say in my review for this book. I only started reading books by Tijan earlier this year when I was asked to read an arc of The Insiders. Needless to say, her writing blew me away and I knew I had to read whatever she releases. And she did not let me down with Canary. This book was nothing like any other mafia book I have read before.
Canary is a very cumbersome, but amazing story. Thera are so many twists and turns that you never know what is going to happen next. However, with Tijan’s writing, everything flows at a steady pace and blends so perfectly.
There is no shortage of action, angst, drama, steam and emotions. Tijan delivers everything in this unique and gripping mafia story.
Canary is told in dual POV’s but mostly from our heroines’. She goes by many names but found herself walking into this side of life on her own, to find her sister. Raize, our hero is coldblooded killer. He kills without remorse and is damn good at what he does. He finds himself having to rely on the select few on his team to thrive and survive.
And that is all I am saying about Canary. This book is riddled with so much more than you can think of. I have ready many mafia books and this was like nothing I have read before. Tijan pulls readers in from the start and never lets them go, even long after the story ends.
Canary is a must read!!

“The truth may hurt for a little while, but a lie hurts forever.”โRyan Bigge
ย
I grew up knowing it would happen one day.
Believing that I would fall into my father’s footsteps and become a monster of my own making.
ย
So I fought it.
I lived.
I loved.
I teased.
And then one dayโฆ I destroyed.
And realized I loved the pain.
Obsessed over the feeling.
So I cut again and again and again.
ย
She saw my rage, my madness, and tried to stop me from destroying myself, and I hated her for it, pushing her away past the point of no return.
Izzy Abandonato was supposed to be mine.
But there are some things people can never come back from. I hurt her, she hurt me, and now I’m living a lie. Telling the ones I love that I’m on one side when for years I’ve been forced to play both.
ย
I’m no angel.
I’ve fallen.
And I may single-handedly bring down the Cosa Nostraโby default.
I, Maksim Sinacore, will have my vengeance.
I will win her back.
Even if it means I have to kill everyone in my path.
The pain masks the betrayal.
I never realized that one dayโI’d be the very rat that I hated. That I was sent to kill. But once you’re deep in a lieโyou’ll do anything to hide the truth.
ย
She fell for the bad one.
She fell for the sinner.
So why does that make me smile?

โForbidden to Love is mafia romance at its best.โ -J.A. Owenby, International bestselling author
Forbidden To Love, an all-new dark, forbidden romance set in the same world as Condemned to Love by USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Siobhan Davis, is available now!
Natalia Mazzone has grown up knowing she is promised to a made man. As the only daughter of one of New Yorkโs most powerful mafia dons, she knows she canโt refuse. Itโs her duty, and she would never dishonor her beloved father.
But the man sheโs promised to is a monster. And there is nothing but torture, pain, and heartache lying in wait.
So, she grabs happiness when she finds itโin the somewhat reluctant arms of Leonardo Messina.
Leo is her brotherโs best friend. A soldato for the Mazzone famiglia. A man with strong ambition and an even stronger resolve. He wonโt allow them to give in to temptation, so Natalia is forced to love him from afar.
Until one forbidden night changes everything, and she readily hands Leo the key to her heart.
Leo risked everything for the one woman he can never have. He doesnโt regret it. It saved Natalia from a life of hell, but his actions set her on a different course.
One that doesnโt involve him.
Years have passed, and his feelings remain the same. Yet he keeps his distance, dedicating himself to his new role as underboss to Bennett Mazzone, while the love of his life is married to another man.
Until a twist of fate puts Natalia in his path again, and this time, he is powerless to resist.
This is how Dark Mafia romance is to be written!! Gah!! There are very few authors who truly can write dark mafia romance and Siobhan Davis is one of them!
Forbidden to Love is written in dual POVs, Nat and Leo. This is a complete standalone. I cannot emphasize this enough. Yes, there are other characters from another book that make appearances and there are references made to that book (Condemned to Love), but you do not need to read that book or have any knowledge of it to read this one. Siobhan does a superb job of filling in any gaps without taking away from Nat and Leo’s story. And I am only pointing this out because it is extremely difficult to do that.
Siobhan blew me away with this book. The depth, layers and details she brings to this story is unreal. I felt as though I was living through everything that Nat and Leo had to endure. FTL is filled with action, drama, angst and heart-pounding scenes that will leave readers breathless. I could not get enough of this book.
I love how Siobhan is able to blend the drama and action of the mafia side with the angst and sweet romance side of this story. Forbidden to Love is one dark mafia romance that everyone needs to read. Go buy it now!!

Her teen crush is now a ruthless killer and powerful mafia heir. Will one life-altering night unite or destroy them?
Bennett Mazzone grew up ignorant of the truth: he is the illegitimate son of the most powerful mafia boss in New York. Until it suited his father to drag him into a world where power, wealth, violence, and cruelty are the only currency. Celebrating her twenty-first birthday in Sin City should be fun for Sierra Lawson, but events take a deadly turn when she ends up in a private club, surrounded by dangerous men who always get what they want. And they want her. Ben canโt believe his exโs little sister is all grown up, stunningly beautiful, and close to being devoured by some of the most ruthless men he has ever known. The Vegas trip is about strengthening ties, but he wonโt allow his associates to ruin her perfection. Although it comes at a high price, saving Sierra is his only choice. The memory of Benโs hands on her body is seared into Sierraโs flesh for eternity. She doesnโt regret that night. Not even when she discovers the guy she was crushing on as a teenager is a cold, calculating killer with dark impulses and lethal enemies who want him dead. Understanding the risks, she walks away from the only man she will ever love, stowing her secrets securely in her heart. Until the truth becomes leverage and Sierra is drawn into a bloody warโa pawn in a vicious game she doesnโt want to play. As the web of deceit is finally revealed, Ben will stop at nothing to protect Sierra. Even if loving her makes him weak. In a world where women serve a sole purpose, and alliances mean the difference between life and death, can he fight for love and win?

Many of Siobhan’s fans know that she is very strong writer when it comes to writing powerful characters with very compelling story line. So for many of us, this was no surprise that she wanted to challenge herself and write in a new genre.
Condemned to Love (CTL) is Siobhan’s first endeavor into the mafia world. Many know that I edit and beta read for a lot of mafia books (both of the romantic and not so romantic sub-genre) so I got really excited when an author that I truly love and respect takes on this endeavor.
CTL is very lengthy but chocked full of depth and details that are absolutely necessary when starting out a new mafia world. Siobhan delivers a very in-depth look at this world, these characters and how everything came to be.
CTL focuses on mainly on Bennett and Sierra and their story, but there are a lot of secondary characters that play key roles in the underlying mafia storyline playing out throughout the book. Siobhan implements a captivating story and you can tell she did a fair amount of research about the mafia world to make this story more authentic and not to far fetched.
As I said previously, I edit and beta read for a lot of mafia books. CTL is definitely one of the least violent mafia books and focuses more on the relationships of the characters and the inner workings of the mafia world. There is a lot of action and thrilling scenes, but nothing too graphic that will turn readers off. Siobhan does a magnificent job explaining the different mafia families and their operations in the US and that adds another layer to her story.
Bennett and Sierra’s story is told in dual POVs throughout the whole book. Siobhan’s strong writing skills allows this book to flow beautifully and getting a glimpse from each character’s perspective adds to the gripping story telling.
Overall, this is a great start to Siobhan’s new series. While there are a few things that I (as an editor) would have done differently, as a reader, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I loved the length, the depth of story and the characters she has introduced to us. I am looking forward to what Siobhan brings next in this world.
Excerpt
SIERRA
Just as I was starting to lose my anger, it returns full force, slapping me in the face. โI donโt want your dirty money!โ I hiss, prodding my finger in his chest.
An amused grin spreads across his mouth, and I want to scream. โI run several successful legitimate businesses. I assure you my money is about as dirty as yours.โ
He has an answer for everything. Itโs infuriating. โYou truly have no shame,โ I seethe. How dare he invade my privacy like this. He has no right. โNext, youโll be telling me you know my bra size.โ
His eyes lower to my chest, and I scowl, wanting to wrap my arms around myself to deprive him of the view. But I wonโt give him the satisfaction of letting him know how much he is getting to me either, so I donโt move a muscle.
โYou were definitely a B cup in Vegas, but Iโm guessing youโre a C cup now.โ He steps a little closer, and though my instinct is to fall back, I stand my ground, refusing to let this asshole intimidate me again. Bending down, he presses his warm mouth to my ear. โI would need to conduct a physical exam to make an accurate assessment.โ
I push him away, glaring at him. โYouโre a pig.โ
His lips pull up at the corners. โI donโt remember you complaining in Vegas. In fact, I distinctly remember you begging me to suck harder on your nipples as I plowed my cock into your greedy pussy.โ
โGet out!โ I bark, pointing at the door. โJust go.โ
He winks, and I invoke every shred of willpower I possess not to lunge at him and gouge out his eyeballs.
โUntil tomorrow.โ He gives me a curt nod before exiting my kitchen, and I slump back in my chair, relieved he is gone but a little disappointed too.

…When you awaken in the morning’s hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die. — Mary Elizabeth Fyre
“I’m sorry for your loss.” I would rather be tortured for an eternity than hear those damn words from one more person, as if Claire, my dead fiance, was a cell phone or car keys. How about, I’m sorry your life is over. I’m sorry you want to die too. I’m sorry you see her in your dreams and wake up only to relive the nightmare. I’m supposed to be the strongest of them all. Ash Abandonato, ruler, assassin, made man, brother, friend–instead, I hurt everyone I touch in hopes that they’ll feel even a sliver of the pain that bears down on my shoulders. I didn’t lose. It was taken from me. And it’s all her fault, Annie Smith. I daydream about her death. And then I close my eyes, and I see her soft smile. I feel her touch, her kiss–it was a mistake what we did that night, but I can’t take it back, and now she’s under my father’s protection–my protection. My worst enemy. The woman I’m the most attracted to. I can’t decide if I want to strangle her or kiss her, and now that she’s stuck in my life, my only goal is to make her feel the same loss I do and destroy her in the process. I’ll trick her with my touch. Seduce her with my kiss. And in the end, when my enemy is at her most vulnerable–I’ll bring down an entire Empire and continue my reign as King. Bow down, I’ll say as I bring the Five Families to their knees. Blood in. Never out. Damned.

5++++++++ Stars RVD writes mafia romance like no one else. Just when I thinks he can’t surprise me, break me or get any more created โ she delivers another smashing story. I had been vying for Ash’s story since the start of this series. He is an alpha asshole but has to be to protect his family. Annie was there when Ash lost Claire. She was there when he needed to get lost in his grief. And then she was gone only to return slightly different, yet still the same. Rachel wove a story that is not only intense and packed with so much emotion, but the twists and turns along with powerful action scenes just put her mafia stories on another level. My heart was pounding the entire time I read this book and for so many different reasons. I won’t go into details because there’s too much to easily give away even the smallest of spoilers. But I will tell you this: It is impassioned and fierce. This is not a sweet romance. RVD takes your heart, annihilates it, lights in on fire, and then slowly pieces the jagged edges back together in the most healing way possible. Your soul will forever be twisted after reading Destructive King. And you will lover RVD (and Ash) for it.
