This is the first book I’ve read from Elizabeth Knox and Iris Sweetwater and let me just say now, I was blown away. This is the first five books in “The Clans” series put in a convenient boxset for those of us who want to binge a series. A great way to collect them all because after having read them, I know I’m going to have to get the rest of the series. They are outstanding in every way. Every emotion known to man will be felt and exhibited when you read these books. Strong alpha men, even stronger women who are used as pawns, mistreated, sometimes abused and bent but NEVER broken. And the interactions between the couple in each book? Totally off the charts! Every element I look for in a mafia book could be found within these pages. I fully recommend this to anyone who enjoys this genre.
Five standalone dark reads that will have you sitting on the edge of your seats.. the books are about the lives of the women and men in the Romanian mafia. The woman are pions used in power struggles by the men they fall in love with and some of them will find out that they are of no use to their families once they have lost their virginity..

I’m a huge Mafia Romance junkie as well a huge Elizabeth Knox fan so when I saw this box set I knew I had to read it. This set includes the first five books of The Clans series that Knox writes with Iris Sweetwater and it is hands down one of my favorite Mafia Series I have read. Each story features a female who seems broken but actually ends up being a fierce female lead that is so much stronger then you could imagine. The stories also feature sinfully hot, over the top alpha males who will do whatever it takes to keep their own people safe. Each book has an intense plot that will keep you engaged from the the of chapter one through to the end of they and there is enough steam in these books to melt your kindle.
These are dark mafia romance stories so they do have dark themes through out but I never felt that they pushed it to far. The series is written so each book is about a specific couple and then there is an interconnected story running through out the series. I definitely recommend reading these in order and having the next books ready.
I highly recommend these books and these authors!!!

This is the first 5 books of The Clans series. These Alpha males and equally passionate women. The clans take you through so many dark and twisted turns that you don’t know what is around the corner. These characters are strong and passionate. They are full of fire and so strong no matter what HELL they have gone through, and oh WOW have they gone through HELL and some things that would make a lesser person beg for death. I love following these characters and these books!!!

Book 2: The Trade
Book 3: Cherished
Book 4: Deceit
Book 5: Love Is War

This anthology contains the first five Clan books in the series.Its a great starting point if you have never read any of the Clan series, or are looking for the early parts of the series. I can honestly say that I have enjoyed reading this collection of books, and hope to finish the rest of the series soon.
One of the things that I loved most about these five books is that they are not cookie cutter stories. They may be dark Mafia themed tales of love, hate, revenge, redemption, and damnation, but they are definitely not predictable.
Is this anthology worth your time?
Absolutely!

This is a great boxed set! I really liked how the stories flowed. The way each is a standalone, but also went together. They grabbed me from the first chapter and I couldn’t put it down!

Are you like me? Have you ever found a book’s description so enticing and inviting that you purchased it without realizing it was part of a series? Not only a series, but there were at least six previous books that you probably should read. Well, I started The Clans series in the middle of the entire story. While I figured out enough to enjoy the book, I realized that I needed background information and to get a better handle of who was who and what was what.
Enter this box set! It allows you to read the first five books in the series. It gives you the background stories and plots of the Clans.
You’ll start with the King and Queen of the Clans in “Promised” because where else would one start? You’ll get a better understanding about the infrastructure plus you’ll meet Marianna and Ion. Loved this couple!! The rest of the books are equally as intriguing, intense, and steamy. However, you need to keep track and focused on what’s going on with the main characters and the outside story lines. They’re important for future books. Plus, there are ties within these books to characters and story lines in Elizabeth Knox’s MC series. You just never know who shows up where and why. That’s the treat! You get more than you were expecting.
Take advantage of the box set! You can easily start this series and then enjoy the rest of the stories not included in this box set. I am also grateful to read the first five books without having to close one book and open another. It’s all right there.
Yes, I received an ARC from Booksprout and am leaving a review. However, I loved this box set so much that I purchased it. Yes, I do have the individual books; but I enjoy the ease of the box set!
These men are cocky alphaholes. The women live to challenge them, which males their passion explode. The series starts with plenty of suspense and doesn’t stop. There is a bit of an emotional rollercoaster to ride through these stories.
For those that are sensitive to abuse (and worse), be warned that lack of consent events do happen with some detail.
