À propos de cet audio
She’s a romantic at heart, living in the most unromantic of worlds....
Nicknamed Sweet Abelli for her docile nature, Elena smiles on cue and has a charming response for everything. She’s the favored daughter, the perfect mafia principessa...or was. Now, all she can see in the mirror’s reflection is blood staining her hands like crimson paint.
They say first impressions are everything....
In the murky waters of New York’s underworld, Elena’s sister is arranged to marry Nicolas Russo. A made man, a boss, a cheat—even measured against mafia standards. His reputation stretches far and wide and is darker than his black suits and ties.
After his and Elena’s first encounter ends with an accidental glare on her part, she realizes he’s just as rude as he is handsome. She doesn’t like the man or anything he stands for, though that doesn’t stop her heart from pattering like rain against glass when he’s near, nor the shiver that ghosts down her spine at the sound of his voice.
And he’s always near.
Telling her what to do.
Making her feel hotter than any future brother-in-law should.
Elena may be the Sweet Abelli on the outside, but she’s beginning to learn she has a taste for the darkness, for rough hands, cigarettes, and whiskey-colored eyes.
Having already escaped one scandal, however, she can hardly afford to be swept up in another. Besides, even if he were hers, everyone knows you don’t fall in love with a made man...right?
This is a stand-alone forbidden romance (with plenty of steam and angst.)

Rose Cassidy doesn’t truly live; she just exists. Numbing herself to fear and pain is the only way she can survive in this cruel world. So when she’s taken as collateral by the notorious Danny Black in a deadly game of power, she’s thrown by the deep fear she feels rising within her. And, worse than fear, a profound desire. She’s heard tales of The Brit. He’s callous. Coldblooded. But no one ever said he was wickedly beautiful and darkly captivating.

Cameron Mortem has a problem—he can't stop killing his partners. Officially labeled clinically insane, he's also one of the most lethal assets in the Dark Forces, a brutal underground military operation built on obedience, survival, and silence. But an experimental drug has fractured his control, making him a liability whenever someone else is on the field. As punishment, he's thrown back into the Under Trials—a merciless boot camp designed to break the weak and sharpen the ruthless. His one directive? Don't kill the new girl.

Murderer. Unhinged. Remorseless. Insane. I’ve been called it all while rotting away in a maximum security psych ward, imprisoned for my crimes. When I’m given a chance to escape this hell, it’s an offer I can’t refuse. I’m transferred to Blackwood Institute, purgatory for the dangerous and disturbed. The deal is simple. Complete the three-year experimental program and you’re free to leave. I have no such intentions. People like me; we’re born to die. There’s no life for me out there. I’ll do whatever it takes to end my pitiful existence.

Marrying the 70-something head of the Cosa Nostra to save my father is the only good deed I’ve ever done. I’m burning and bitter under the fake smile and tight dresses, but I was keeping it together. Was. Until my fiancé’s nephew turns up to dinner uninvited. Angelo "Vicious" Visconti. A beautiful monster with cheekbones as sharp as his tongue. They say I shouldn’t be scared of him, because nine years ago, he went straight. He’s barely a Made Man anymore. But I say, he’s the most dangerous Visconti of all.

I kissed my father’s best friend, and it kind of didn’t go well. Not only because he’s 18 years older than me - but he also didn’t like it. Not one bit. In my defense, I didn’t mean to fall for him. It just happened. Nathaniel Weaver is the most attractive man I’ve ever seen with enough charisma to blind the sun. He’s bigger than the world, owns half of it, and conquered the other half. He was forbidden. Wrong. So I totally got over him. Or so I told myself. Until we’re forced to get married.

Except I'm no innocent, and it's the king himself—the man called il Diavolo—who appeals to me in sinful ways I never dreamed. Fausto's wickedness draws me in, his power like a drug. And when the devil decides he wants me, I'm helpless to resist him—even if it means giving myself to him, body and soul.

📚E-BOOK📚 & 🎧AUDIO🎧
I recently dived back into the mafia romance genre, and "The Sweetest Oblivion" by Danielle Lori did not disappoint! This is my second book by this author, and I’m glad to say that I liked it just as much as the first. After seeing buzz about it on TikTok, I was reminded of how much I've missed the captivating allure of mafia stories—there's something undeniably magnetic about that world.
Elena is an absolute force of nature—a strong heroine who doesn’t take anyone’s nonsense. Her feistiness and ability to stand her ground, especially against Nico, made for some delightful interactions. The chemistry between them was electric yet complicated; their push-and-pull dynamic created a palpable tension that had me turning pages eagerly (and sometimes laughing out loud).
One thing I particularly enjoyed was how Elena embodies a “altruist” persona while also being incredibly naive and free-spirited—that contrast really added depth to her character. On the other hand, Nico is your classic overprotective hero with his own sweet undertones; together they bring forth a sizzling combination that kept me captivated.
The writing flowed smoothly throughout the story, with side characters who added color without overshadowing our leads. Lori paints a vivid picture of life within a hardcore mafia family—the tricks they play on each other and how fiercely they protect their loved ones when love does enter the equation.
That said, while I appreciated the slow burn between Nico and Elena and their sexy dialogues (which were steamy!), I felt like there could have been more interaction between them overall. By book's end, their relationship felt rushed given how short a time they'd known each other—definitely not my favorite trope!
I also found myself longing for an epilogue or some closure beyond what we got at the end—it left me wishing for more insight into where they would go from there.
In conclusion: if you're looking for an engaging read filled with tension and tantalizing chemistry in a beautifully crafted mafia setting—this book delivers! Just prepare yourself for wanting just a little bit more by its conclusion.
