WHEW BOY! I LOOOOOOOOOOOVED this book! I enjoyed the narrators letting the listeners FEEL this story. I really enjoyed how pieces of this story overlapped other books of Meghan’s. And if you’ve never read other books, you just wouldn’t know that the hidden gems are there. But I was very quickly lost in Cannon’s and Drew’s story. I liked how Meghan drops pieces of their histories in and gives the reader, just a little but you know there’s more to it. I liked Drew’s tenacity and the way she went after what she wanted. What she didn’t expect was the full Cannon effect. The delicious chemistry between them and the way in which their relationship evolved was something neither of them expected. I was lost in their journey and HOLY BOMBSHELL…. Meghan brought it! I so can’t wait for the next book. Be sure not to let this audio book pass you by! If you’d rather read it, then pre-order your copy today!
If you’re like me and your introduction to Meghan March was Creighton Karas and the Dirty Billionaire trilogy, then Cannon’s story is a LONG time coming and I’m so happy it is finally here! I love that we get to know more about him and find out what he’s been up to all this time and I couldn’t help but love him and feel so much sympathy for him. He’s struggled so hard to remain clean from his father’s dirty deeds and all without the support of his best friend/half brother. I found myself so drawn to him that even though I do really like Drew, as the story progressed I became increasingly indignant on his behalf. As per usual, Meghan March is masterful at creating multilayered characters and compelling plot lines that keep you utterly invested in her stories. The chemistry between Cannon and Drew is deliciously intense, the tension of the multiple plot lines makes the book a complete page-turner (I listened to the audio in a single sitting), and though I was prepared for this to end in a cliffhanger (hello, it’s a duet) this on was a total punch in the gut. And since Sebastian York voiced Cannon (just as he voiced Creighton and Cavanaugh), it was easy to submerge myself into their world and wallow in the sexiness that his voice (and Andi Arndt’s) serves. I can’t wait for White Knight! I’m hoping that we see some cameos (and reconciliations) between Cannon and his half siblings and some retribution (or justice at the very least) for him and Drew. I think it’s pretty safe to say that this duet will stand up with Dirty Billionaire and Dirty Girl. 4.5 out of 5 wine glasses.
I was absolutely consumed by Drew and Cannon’s story in the audiobook of Black Sheep by Meghan March! Narrated by Andi Arndt and Sebastian York, I could not stop listening! They brought this story to life for me and had me at the edge of my seat. And no worries, the eBook will be out shortly as well!
Drew has one purpose in life, bring down the Casso family and make them pay. The best way to do this? Infiltrate Cannon’s life and business, the illegitimate son of Dom Casso, but what she never expected was the explosive chemistry they would share or the danger she faced by entering Dom’s life. Drew was mysterious, lost and out for blood. She was strong, feisty and beautiful. Cannon was a bit of a mystery. How deeply was he involved in his father’s business, if at all? He was strong, determined, sexy and one amazing alpha and I fell for him hard.
The audiobook for Black Sheep by Meghan March was absolutely amazing. I could not stop listening! I loved Drew and Cannon and that ending left me breathless and wanting more! I cannot wait to see how their story ends!
Happy listening!
This story was above and beyond amazing. Meghan March did it again! Wrote beautiful romance story wrapped in a dangerous world full of suspense, secrets and twists of action. Whole plot and unpredictable events in the book didn’t allowed me to put it down. Story was getting better and better with every page turn where main heroes let us enter into their world. World of rich and powerful mafia people. No one wants to get in their way, except one person, Drew Carson. Young woman appears on Upper Ten’s club threshold with her hidden reasons behind. Will she find what she’s looking for or die after messing with them?
Story was written in first person narration and from dual POV but first we’re getting to know Drew’s thoughts. I really love that because Cannon from the beginning was more a mystery man for me.
Cannon Freeman. From his childhood, he belongs to Dominic Casso family. You don’t want to cross paths with him. On the outside he is dominant powerful and aloof, arrogant Alfa male. Like a lion always appears silently, stalking his prey, but there is something else inside in this man what’ll makes you love him forever. So grab Black Sheep story and feel whole range of emotions about Drew and Cannon and their hard, dangerous but deep love story.

Baaaahhhhhh! Okay, now that that is out of the way, because that ending made me want to throttle someone, well, I know who, actually, all three characters in that last scene, but I digress. Wait, no, not over it, because I know that scene will allow for the main man to step up and prove his worth and do his alpha-male awesomeness thing. Vague much? Well, yes, yes I am
This is book one in the duet, and we start off with some mystery. Who are our leading characters? Why are they thrown together? Who are these side people and why are they so mean and cranky? What is all this subterfuge for? But, of course, the biggest question is, why don’t Drew and Cannon give into the crazy heat that sparked up between them the moment they met? They get around to it, but the heat between them radiates off the pages *swipes moisture away*
This is a duet, and of course that means, this portion of the story is complete in its own way, but there is no conclusion. And we end on an amazing cliffhanger. And it is so worth it to get to know these two, and I can’t wait to see how they make this all work out!
I am sitting on a plane right now as I write this because I just finished Black Sheep and I’m
Trying to wrap my head around everything that I have read.
So, I’m going to start with this: whenever I open a book written by Ms. March I know I can expect a few things:
1. HOT as h^ll hero…..yes, he is going to be my hero!
2. A bad a^^ heroine, because it wouldn’t be a MM book without (and I LOVE that about her books)!
3. A storyline that is going to make my anxiety skyrocket….which it did!
Now….I really, really need White Knight because WTH!!!!
This duet is one that will be added to my Meghan March shelf!!!!
Wow! This is book one of the Dirty Mafia Duet and what a start it is!! Drew Carson wants to take down the Casso Organization, so she gets a job with the illusive Cannon Freeman at the Upper Ten Club. He is the son of the most infamous mob boss. She might be a little over her head though once she meets Cannon. Cannon is the black sheep in the Casso crime family always trying to prove himself. When a new waitress walks into his club wanting a job he is taken with her. So is his father. Can he protect Drew and keep both their lives safe? They are both dangerous to each other but sometimes this kind of danger is just what we need. The chemistry is off the charts and you will not be disappointed in this mafia romantic suspense. This does end in a cliffhanger so be prepared. I cannot wait for book two, White Knight! So much intensity, intrigue and a whole lot of sexy mob men! Told in dual POV
Gave this book 5 stars
It was so good!!! I love Cannon my heart goes out to him. This book is definitely emotional, sexy hot, dangerous mafia men, deceit…..all the goodies that Meghan March packs into her stories. It does end in a cliffhanger now we need to find out what will happen to Drew and Cannon HEA. I can’t wait to dive into the ” White Knight ”
Thank you for your review.
As always March knows how to pull me into her writing with ease, her fantastic characters, dark dangerous elements, smoking hot chemistry and a story line that keeps you guessing with every twist.
Black sheep follows Cannon Freeman and Drew Carson, two people on opposites side of the law, well so Drew thinks. She is trying to get close to the Casso Mafia family and her way in is a very exclusive cigar club for the rich and secretive. Cannon owns the club and his father, who is the head of the Casso family and the most dangerous man in town, he hold his meetings at the club. However unknown to Drew, Cannon doesn’t see eye to eye with his fathers ways, he is clean in comparison and Drew slowly learns that he is everything she was expecting and more. But as their world collide and Drews secrets start to unravel and she starts falling more and more for Cannon, her life may be put on the line, and all because she wanted Cannon’s father to pay for his sins.
I absolutely loved this story, serious couldn’t get enough of the connections to the past books and characters as well as the romance between Drew and Cannon. The twist and surprises that happened throughout were fantastic. I was worried about Drews secret slowly getting reveled piece by piece because of her growing weakness for Cannon. But Cannon is an alpha male of sweetness, I adored him to pieces and felt for him with his strain in his relationship with his father and his half brother, whom many readers will know from past books. I wanted him to feel like he had a place to feel connected and with Drew, he finally got that.
In the end there are so many great secondary characters, I have already read the second in the duet and loved how much more deep we get with the characters introduced in this first half. I also loved getting more into Dominic Casso’s world, he is an interesting character to himself, especially his relationships with Cannon as his father and his other children. The ending is a cliffhanger as expected and it will have you holding your breath until you read the next. Prepare yourself for some awesomeness!
Meghan March has stuck again. Holy crap. My jaw is on the ground. Black Sheep was twisted and dark and that’s apart from the mob side of things.
I liked Drew. A woman on a mission to see justice served. What a tangled web she wove to set her plan into motion. What she didn’t plan on was Cannon and all the things he stirred up in her. Oh my stars Cannon! Talk about a broody man. A man with a lot to lose. A man who tiptoed the line between right and wrong everyday.
I loved seeing Cannon’s protective side come out when it came to Drew. He pulled out all the stops to ensure her safety. He showed her a side to himself nobody every got to know. The real kicker was Drew letting down her hair and being herself. The woman nobody really knew until he wormed his way through her defenses. Cannon had her questioning everything she thought she knew and wanted…
Lies, truces, manipulation, danger and the worst guys in the world- Drew and Cannon faced it all daily. And when Drew’s secret came to light Cannon was at a loss for what to do. Meghan March had my heart racing and aching in the same beat as Black Sheep came to a startling end. I absolutely can not wait to see how everything is going to play out in the conclusion of this duet.
AMAZING!
This is a great intro into Meghan’s writing if you are Loki g for something new that will get your blood pumping.
Black Sheep moves at insta love/lust speed but you still get all the gritty back story and info.
Drew and Cannon are absolute fire together and I need to know the rest! NOW! ASAP!
This newest release from Meghan March is just as captivating and sexy as all her previous books are. I binged on Black Sheep and am now eagerly awaiting the second and concluding installment.
This story is clichéd, over-the-top and simple, all rolled into one. But that is precisely March’s talent. It doesn’t matter that she writes the same story over and over in slightly different variations, because she does it so well! She’s the ultimate storyteller that way. There’s the assertive alpha male, the headstrong, beautiful woman and the secrets they keep even when they’re falling for each other. There are hot sexytimes, lots of angst and clichés galore. And it’s absolutely yummy.
To sum things up, Black Sheep is exactly what you’d expect from a Meghan March title. It’s absorbing, well-written and with that ever-present undercurrent of sex she’s so good at conveying. So even if there aren’t any surprises or even a slightly unexpected plot twist, Black Sheep is still an entertaining read. It’s a quick fix of smutty romance, even if it’s not particularly memorable.

Black Sheep is book one in Meghan’s new Dirty Mafia duet. In this book you meet Drew, the sweet and innocent girl looking for employment. Cannon runs a club where Drew lands a job. Drew definitely gets in over her head in every sense of the word. Their chemistry is off the charts sizzling! This was definitely hard to put down once I started reading!! I absolutely cannot wait for White Knight to release for the continuation of their story!!
Cannon Freeman is the black sheep of the Casso family. His father won’t publicly claim him, but leans on him. Running a prestigious cigar club fills his time and keeps him close to the pulse of the city.
Drew Carson was the one thing he didn’t see coming. By the time he’s entangled with her, he doesn’t want to admit what he suspects about her. Because she has her own agenda.
From the beginning I was tied up in these two. Cannon is trying to walk the line of keeping his father happy, helping build a truce between dueling families, and living his own life his own way. Drew is tenacious, determined to get into Cannon’s club to investigate her own suspicions. Neither counted on falling for the other, but by the time they realize feelings are tangled up, and first impressions may not be truth, the danger is increasing and each has to decide what they are willing to pay.
I loved this one so much I read it and listened to it on audio within a week of each other. March’s duets continue to get better and better. Her characters are compelling, the plot is gripping, and I couldn’t put this pair down! I was shocked with the cliff at the end (as she is so great at doing) and I could not wait to get my hands on book 2. This is the start of a fantastic duet filled with suspense, danger, and passion.
I received this book for free from the author in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
Meghan March never disappoints!! Black Sheep was everything I anticipated and more! It had me giggling and on edge on in one swoop! My goodness hotness overload!! Brilliantly written!! Lord have mercy that ending has me needing the next one ASAP!! Fantastic book!!
Great start to a new duet! LOVED IT! Omg!! Sexy, suspenseful and I couldn’t put it down. I’m on edge all during the story waiting for Drew’s secrets to come out. Cannon has always been living on that fine line between good guy and dirty man…I’ve been wanting to know more about him. The sparks flying between these two had me fanning my face to cool down. Whoa baby! It’s getting hot in here. I’m dying to know what happens next because things are all sorts of dangerous when you’re dealing with the mob. So freaking intense!
I’m a huge Meghan March fan. I didn’t think books could get better than the Deal with the Devil trilogy, to me Forge was everything however…. it does. Meghan’s can write like no other. So this book…the Mob you all. Seriously It doesn’t get more exciting than that. However Cannon does and he will pull you in until you are like Forge who? ENJOY, you will not be disappointed. Worth the one click every time.
Wow! These men Ms. March writes about just keep getting better and better! Cannon is the dark mob boss son, he is wealthy, gorgeous, and has fallen for the mysterious Drew. These two, will heat up the pages from the first meeting, u can feel the tension and passion they have thru the book.
Highly addictive read just like every other book she writes. And the queen of cliffhangers does it again to our poor hearts, dying to know what happens next. Every single book Ms. March just keeps us readers wanting more!
Gripping and intense, Black Sheep throws us headfirst into a dark world full of secrets, lies, and deadly consequences.
I honestly don’t know what to say about this book. I devour each and every book that March puts out and this was no different, yet it was. I am having a difficult time putting my feelings into the right words. Black Sheep didn’t have all of the “wham, bam, in your face” moments that many of her newer books have had, but there was just something special about the way that she told this story, the way she wove all the pieces together, that made it really stand out for me.
I have been intrigued with Cannon Freeman for quite awhile now. I was beyond giddy when I discovered his book would be next. Then we got Drew Carson whose strength, bravery, and vulnerability made her an incredible female lead. I can’t get enough of them.
This story was utterly riveting! I tore through it in hours, desperate for answers, yet wishing I’d taken my time when I finished. March leaves us breathless for more!
Another great start to a duet that I couldn’t put down. Cannon wants Drew as soon as he sees her but he doesn’t sleep with anyone that works for him. She’s going to test all of his control when it comes to wanting her.
There is so much happening in this book, there’s surprises that I didn’t see coming. I can’t say a bunch about this book without giving spoilers but I did slow blink in a few spots, held my breath in others and I’m pretty sure I fanned my face a few times. Then there was the Cliffie! I knew there was going to be one but woah! LOL
Can’t wait for the next one!!!
