When a ruthless rogue and reckless vixen collide, a hell of a lot more than hearts may break.
Nolan
I like women the way I like money – as much as I want, anytime, anywhere. I work hard and play harder, running the sleezy and corrupt business that comes in and out of the MGM National Harbor Casino, in the heart of Washington, DC. There are only a few men I trust, one of them being Dane Neri—boss … Neri—boss of the corrupt empire in Atlantic City.
After his sister gets into some trouble, Dane entrusts me to watch over her. Gina is stunningly beautiful and drives all my senses into a deranged frenzy. I’m going to keep her all to myself. And have her anytime, anywhere, and as much as I want.
I even marry the feisty little brat to keep up this fake-ass charade, until she’s almost taken from me. Now my feelings are anything but fake, and I’ll set Washington, DC on fire to keep her safe, by my side, and in my bed—no matter who I have to hurt to make it happen.
Gina
My brother, Dane, is a powerful man, and he tries to shield me from his playground of dirty business in Atlantic City. But I also deal dirty, to my brother’s disapproval, and now my life is on the line. Dane takes me out of one city and drops me into another, just as corrupt and treacherous.
I land right on the lap of Nolan Reynolds, the arrogant, egotistical rogue who runs the MGM. All I want to do is give him a taste of his own medicine—play him as I do other men. But I’m forced into a marriage with Nolan, I’m snared in a trap and there’s no way out, because my heart and soul will fall deep when I look into his cobalt blue eyes.
I’ve always looked out for me first, but living means a lot now, because in the blackest moments, all I can think about is the hell that would come if I had to live without Nolan.

Cobalt by Linny Lawless is a mafia romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Rodney Falcon. This is the second book in the Capitol Corruption series and can be read as a standalone.
I do want to put a Warning that the book does cover some dark topics within the Mafia world.
I absolutely love Linny’s books! She does an amazing job covering some dark topics but still making the book enjoyable to read. You can’t help but fall for Nolan and Gina. I can’t wait to dive into more of Linny’s books.
Rodney did a great job on the narration. He always knows how to bring a story to life.
I would highly recommend this book if you love mafia romances.
What started out as a marriage of convenience turns into so much more. Nolan and Gina’s unique love story is dark, sexy, and twisted.
Fast paced and action packed. When Gina’s best friend, and fellow ‘high end call girl, is missing, she turns to her brother for help. Her brother, Dane, owner of a casino and several money laundering businesses in NJ. His best friend, owner of a casino in Washington, DC, Nolan promises to protect Gina from whomever is responsible for the missing woman. As mentioned, lots of action as well as super hot smexy times. Good read.
I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Cobalt
Capitol Corruption, Book 2
By: Linny Lawless
Narrated by: Rodney Falcon
Linny Lawless writes such good books, I find myself getting lost in her worlds. Cobalt is book 2 of her Capitol Corruption series and it delivers. It’s not long, but these characters take us into their world and let us escape. Gina is a high priced call girl, and Dane’s sister. When she finds herself in some trouble, Dane reaches out to his friend in Washington DC. Nolan is powerful, running the MGM National Harbor Casino, and he will do anything for his friend. To protect this feisty woman, Nolan does what it takes to keep her safe. But will it be enough? Will she behave long enough to stay protected? This is a fun, fast paced adventure. Full of suspense, corruption danger and steam, it’s complete entertainment! You don’t want to miss any in this series!
Narrated by Rodney Falcon, each character is given their own personality and voice. He can pick up that gangster quality easily and gives Nolan that edgy sound. In turn, he keeps Gina with an attitude, but adds that bit of softness to her. Loved every minute of this one and look forward to more.

We first met Nolan in Pushed: Capitol Corruption #1 and you just knew he wasn’t a man to be f**ked with. When his friend, Dane, needs someone to protect his sister Nolan agrees. He will protect her at all costs even if it means his life.
I really can’t wait for more in this series!! Linny you have a wicked mind and a way to grab onto readers attention with your words!! I’m so happy to be apart of this journey with you!!
I absolutely loved this book! Nolan is asked to protect Gina, by her brother Dane, after her best friend is taken and he’s worried she may be next. He takes her to his casino for safekeeping. I loved the attraction and chemistry between Nolan and Gina. This book is action packed, intense, emotional, and I couldn’t get enough! I highly recommend this book and I’m anxiously awaiting the next.
Book two in the Capitol Corruption series, from the first couple of chapters I was hooked, Dane Neri asks Nolan Reynolds to protect his sister Gina after her best friend disappears and it looks like whoever took her could be after Gina too.
He takes her to his MGM casino suite to keep her safe, as the days turn to weeks he decides there is no better way to keep her safe than to marry her, then the attraction takes hold on both of them, it becomes more, and they find she’s still in danger.
Action packed and with old friends helping, I just love it when a story involves previous characters, it makes the whole story more real. I loved this so much that I finished it in one day, only coming up for air and to eat ….. lol.
I received a copy and I am voluntarily leaving my own honest opinion.
