THE DON by Serena Akeroyd

 

Blood stains my hands, my soul, my heart, yet I’ll shed more to keep her safe.

The Oath Duet, an all-new must-read wicked and dark mafia romance from Serena Akeroyd, is now available!

The Don

A chance meeting brings Jen MacNeill into my life—the woman born to reign at my side.

She just doesn’t know it yet. 

How could my Lady be anything other than a silken promise taunting me with every breath she takes?

A new Don reigns over Manhattan.

But though I won the war, peace isn’t easily brokered. 

Over a decade of avenging my father’s death, I made many enemies. 

To each and every one, Jen’s a target. 

But I’ll paint NYC red before I let them harm her.

I just never imagined I’d be in the line of fire first…  

A heart broken by grief can feel no guilt or shame with the brutality in which vengeance is delivered.

This is the first part of ‘The Oath’ duet in The Valentini Family series.

Excerpt

I stared out onto the city, well aware that even if it were daylight, no one would be able to see in here. It made me feel our isolation more, and I loved it. 

Wanted it. 

Craved more. 

Needed like I’d never needed before. 

Then, everything changed. 

It was quite accidental. 

A sharp turn around a bend had us jostling into each other. Nothing crazy. But our hands slipped, and the edge of mine brushed against his crotch. 

He had a hard-on. 

He had a hard-on, yet he wasn’t pawing at me. Wasn’t treating me like I was a whore. Was holding me as if I were the opposite, in fact. 

His control was lust-inducing. 

His arousal was inspiring. 

And I wanted both. 

I wanted his control ruptured. 

His arousal burned off.

On me. 

I turned my face to the side, letting my lips press against his throat. His pulse bobbed as a result and as I let my tongue dart out to play, he groaned, and I felt the soft vibrations. Encouraged, I sucked down, nipping and teasing as I made my way up, soft kisses dancing against the line of his jaw where I could feel the slight bumps of stubble that would begin to grow soon. 

Finally, I found his mouth. Reaching up with my free hand, I encouraged him to tilt his head downward so our lips could meet. 

A whimper escaped me when they did. 

It felt as if I’d been waiting a lifetime for this moment, for the meeting of our mouths, for this kiss. Time stopped still, everything in me freezing as my body processed the rightness of the connection between us.

About Serena

I’m a romance bookaholic and I won’t touch a book unless I know there’s a happy ending. This addiction is what made me craft stories that suit my voracious need for raunchy romance.  I love twists and unexpected turns, and my novels all contain sexy guys, dark humor, and hot AF love scenes.

I write MF, Menage, and Reverse Harem (also known as Why Choose romance,) in both contemporary and paranormal. Some of my stories are darker than others, but I can promise you one thing, you will always get the happy ending your heart needs!

My Review
5 Stars
THE DON by Serena Akeroyd is the First book in The Valentini Family Series and the first book in The Oath duet. This starts the story of Luciu Valentini and Jen MacNeill. If you have read the Five Point Series then you probably already have met Jen and Luciu but this is their chance meeting in this book.
Jen has had to work her way up her whole life because of her childhood. Jen mother was a whore and this has taught Jen to take care of herself along with do what she must to survive and get somewhere in life. Luciu is the new Don of Manhattan and happens to meet Jen who he feels a strong connection with right away and wants to protect her. But things of course don't go easy for either of them.
I am a HUGE fan of this author and so I recommend this book and really anything she writes. I can't wait for the next installment.
