Amazing bargain and a fantastic read. This boxset contains 5 short mafia romance stories, each one brilliant in its own right making this a mesmerizing boxset. Lots of chemistry between the characters, strong willed male and females with plenty of twists and turns to the plot. My advice is for you to grab a drink and sit back in your comfy reading chair as I certainly didn’t want to get up and stop reading until I had read this boxset cover to cover – enjoy.

This collection features mafia romances. The men are possessive and the women have been mistreated but are strong willed and will do what they need to do to carry on with their lives. You get five books chronicling the Clans mafia. A good read.

The characters were “trapped” in two ways: by their connections to the Mob, and by love. No matter which way they turned, there is no way out.

Ms. Knox’s Anguish series is one of the reasons I love mafia romances. These books are a real page turner and I’m glad I had the opportunity to read all books at one time. While reading I kept thinking on how much I would love to hear an audible version of these books. I got really swept up on the overall plot of the series. Of course each could be stand alone but they are sooooo much better together. Ms. Knox you got me hooked!

FANTASTIC Collection of The Clans
After having read Ruthless as my introduction to The Clans series I was happy to have the opportunity to read this box set of the first five books – Promised, The Trade, Cherished, Deceit and Love is War. Each book in the set centers around one couple but they also build on the previous books with characters and the overall story-line of the Romanian Mafia Family weaving throughout each.
The writing duo of Elizabeth Know and Iris Sweetwater have done a masterful job of putting together wonderful stories with very interesting characters and a range of emotion and situations. There is darkness, intrigue, violence, deceit amazing and explosive chemistry and so much more. They show strong women who are not broken, even when beaten down, and who instead rise above it all and take their power and place within the family. This box set is a definite winner and a great way to get immersed into The Clans.
I received a free ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
This is the first five of The Clans. The Romanian Mob is much different than the Italians and Russians. This is such a great boxset to have. It starts with Ion and Mariana, the King and Queen, and goes to a new couple in each story. There is also much action, suspense, betrayals, and twists and turns. Once you start this, you won’t want to put it down. I was hooked from the beginning to the end. When you finish this set, you will want to continue reading the others in this series. Elizabeth and Iris have done such an amazing job with this series. Fall in love with the Romanian Mob and their couples.
This collection was the first 5 books in “The Clans” series and I was totally glued to my kindle as I read each and every book in this must have box set! Each and every book in this box set had great character and storyline development which kept me totally engaged throughout each book!
I had a great time reading this boxset. It has well developed and engaging characters that have lots of chemistry. The storyline flowed smoothly from book one to the last.

Elizabeth Knox and Iris Sweetwater knock this one out of the park and Its a crazy ride.

This set contains the first five books of The Clans series. While each story focuses on a single couple, the plot arc continues over the series. They all have HEAs, and the women are not treated very well as The Clans struggle to leave tradition behind. These women are hurt but not broken, and rise to rule jointly with their men. Great way to start this series, and I have continued on from here.
Promised is the story of Mariana & Ion. Betrothed as children, Mariana is kidnapped at 16. Her role in the Clans is integral because whoever has her rules. No one takes from Ion, and he sets out to prove it in this story.
The Trade:
Anton & Natasha were on track to becoming a couple before their secrets derailed them. I loved hearing Natasha’s backstory and seeing how far she has come. It was sweet watching Anton learn what love is, and falling in love with Natasha. We also see Mariana & Ion here, great to catch up with this couple & see them rule together.
Cherished:
An American working security for the Romanian mob, Duncan has zero chance of being allowed to court Willow, the prodigal Mafia princess. Each of the stories progresses the plot arc a bit more, so I am glad I am binge reading the boxset, which has helped to keep the minor characters straight.
Deceit:
The title says it all. An assassin for the family-run Arcane, Salvatore helps his best friend Marcel when Marcel’s sister Aria is kidnapped. There is lots of deceit in this one, as family turns against family in pursuit of power, with a brief appearance by Mariana & Ion. Trigger warnings in this story.
Love is War:
The disgraced Rhys needs to get back into Ion & Mariana’s good books. He agrees to accept a position in the Ukraine to get back Clan territory that has been lost to former street rat Vera. Rhys and Vera are a volatile couple. She is definitely the feistiest woman we have been introduced to to-date. The typos in this version are annoying-while these run through all the books in the boxset, I found more more in this story than the rest.
This box set is Extremely captivating, sexy, steamy, I can’t get enough of the turmoil, lust, love, drama and secrets!”Twists and turns, danger, betrayal, torture, broken hearts and so much more.
Beware of this collection because it will take you captive right from the beginning with book one. I have a habit of reading several at a time but when I began this one it took over and only had my attention until I reached the very end. The Clans are a complex dynamic reads with deep emotions that bind them together. They love big and fight big with at times it is life or death that comes down to it. A complete takeover of the heart is what they get with nothing less so the battles at time are bloody and bring tears. They know though at the end they are loved and cherished male and female with catching your breath inbetween each battle of the heart. The monsters though that are in these have you screaming and even a timid person would want retaliation at times. Broken is mended by love with saving the soul that this author has you captive from beginning to end.
