Time to break the rules and make her submit to me… Giordano and I always get what I want.
I want her to be mine.
Submitting to my every command.
Fulfilling our wild fantasies.
I’ll make her cave to temptation.
I thought it would be simple.
Until the day when the past and present collide.
Skeletons tumble out of the closet whispering secrets on their lips.
I get caught in a blood war with a target on my back.
And, she sees something she shouldn’t have.
My enemies come for me and know she’s my weakness.
They want her.
Heads roll, and the streets fill with blood.
It’s kill or be killed.
The ruthless against the heartless.
I have to become both to protect her.
Even if it costs me everything.

Another Wow read from this author. Who doesn’t love the Giordano men and the woman who love them?? This is the kind of book that it’s hard to put down because you want to get to the next page then the next and so on. Salvatore and Mimi have always had a fantastic relationship. It was all building up to what is in store for you within these pages. You get excitement, action, loyalty, family, love and you find out who is the rat who is helping the Fontaine’s.

What an amazing series. Can’t get enough of these guys!
This book is a dark friends to lovers mafia story featuring Salvatore Giordano who has been in love with Mimi Cipriani for years, but she has been in love with his brother Gabe. After Gabe is married, Salvatore focuses on changing his relationship with Mimi from friends to lovers. As their relationship changes a mafia war occurs. I highly recommend this well written and perfect mafia novel with its complex characters and a plot full of personal loss, mafia violence, unexpected twists, and sizzling romance.

Mimi has been friends with the Giordanos all her life and for awhile had been with Gabe. But that didn’t work out and now Salvatore has his sights set on her. In the meantime, while Mimi is looking through recipes at her grandmother’s house, she finds a picture of her mother that starts off an unforeseen chain of events that involves not only her but the Giordano family. There is lots of action, suspense, and romance in this story.
This book is Salvatore and Mimi’s story. While Mimi has always been in love with Gabe, Sal has been in love with her. Since Gabe and Charlotte are together and happy along with an accident Mimi had grown so close to Sal but he’s tired of the friends life and wants her to be his doll, be his woman. Trusting Sal to not break her heart is a big problem and she pushes him away. This pair had unbelievable chemistry and I loved reading this story, again it was written so well. Plenty of hot scenes to keep you reading but not over the top. Five stars.

Ms. Faith Summers, aka the Author we all know and love Khardine Gray, has just blown my mind with the release of Thrill Me, the latest installment to The Dark Odyssey Series. Should you not be familiar with her work, you’ve got to read these books.
Inside this amazing dramatic and dark romance, you are reintroduced to Salvatore and Mimi. While in my opinion, they can be read as ‘stand alones’, I recommend reading this Series as a whole. This is a dark romance release which will draw you, the reader, right in and keep you there throughout until the very end.
She is going to be his, however, she doesn’t know it yet. Follow along as this Mafia masterpiece lures you into a riveting storyline that comes complete with the realistic characters to match. The Dark Odyssey Sex Club is where you’d discover the gorgeousness that is Salvatore Giordano, as well as his everything, Maria ‘Mimi’ Cipriani. This is a ‘friends to lover’s dark romance.
I am one of those people who try very hard never to give away any part of the plot, so that I do not ruin it for other readers. What I can tell you is THIS RELEASE IS MY FAVORITE OF THE SERIES SO FAR. There is Mafia drama & intrigue, steamy/sexy scenarios, and a HEA you’re going to love. So, I encourage all fans of amazing romance, albeit Dark, to follow the captivating journey these two characters find themselves in, through to the very last page & lose yourself into the creative World of Ms. Summers making. Trust me, you will not be disappointed, at all.
I was beyond fortunate to have requested an advanced reader’s copy of Thrill Me in exchange for my honest and voluntarily given opinion. I highly recommend reading this book as well as anything published by Ms. Summers (& this Series as a whole).
I absolutely loved this story! Gritty story line with rough and ready characters and a great plot. Emotionally engaging with highs and lows, leaving you on the edge of your seat to the end.Definitely recommend.

I received this ARC from Bad Boy Update. I love this series! This is Salvatore’s story. He has been Maria’s protector basically for her whole life and he has wanted her that long. The time was never right, the age difference was not appropriate. All that has changed and now she works for him and his brothers and cousin at their sex club. He know she still has her dreams, but knows she loves her job. Maria has know his family her whole life and her father does work for the Family. She has always loved Salvatore and felt like she brayed him when she was with Gabe briefly. She tell Salvatore everything, except one big secret. Feeling bold, Maria has taken to “falling into bed” half naked with Salvatore, but doing nothing more. Salvatore has to decide to keep her as a friend, or claim her for himself like he has wanted to for years. Just as things heat up with them, and old enemy resurfaces and puts everyone is danger and no one will be the same when things get bad. No spoilers…you just need to read this one now!!!
My heart broke for Maria/Mimi as she fell for Gabe and was broken for a long time. Her rock and best friend, Gabe’s older brother Salvatore was there to watch her fall.
Now with Gabe happily married, Salvatore made Mimi his.
This gritty, graphic storyline focused on Mimi and Gabe’s struggle for their HEA.
FULL of betrayal, twists, and messy history as Mimi finally discovered the truth behind her mother’s suicide and the threats against Salvatore’s family.
Lots of mafia violence and raw scenes that are brutal and bloody.
I loved that this was a stand-alone without the dreaded cliffy!

As the story begins, Salvatore is staring at Maria (Mimi) Cipriani as she lies in his bed, wondering if today she’ll be his friend or his “friend,” his babygirl or his doll. Nothing has happened between them because she’s still hurting from an unrequited love with Gabriel, his younger brother, but he’s determined to make Mimi his. He is Salvatore Giordano, third son of one of the most powerful mob bosses in Chicago and owns The Dark Odyssey sex club where Mimi mother hens the waitresses and exotic dancers. It’s the perfect environment for Salvatore and Mimi to be together, but the memory of what happened with Gabe, plus her mother’s suicide, doesn’t allow her to entirely open her heart. Unbeknownst to the Giordanos, the Fontaines have been ruthlessly planning a war, a war of revenge because Joey, one of the bosses, was killed by Vincent Giordano. It’s been silent lately and they expect something big and deadly. What they don’t know yet is there’s a rat within their group who is feeding intel to the Fontaines, making their destruction a certainty. The Giordanos have their allies and, with Claudius and his crew beside them, they should be a formidable opponent. The battle, when it arrives, is well-planned, well-executed and fearsome battle with a few surprises that give new meaning to the word rat. It’s a knockout!
This is the third story in this series. The story revolves around Salvatore Giordano and Maria “Mimi” Cipriani. Salvatore has loved Mimi forever. This is a story of friends to lovers. This story is of family, blood, control, power, murder, revenge, secrets, betrayal and lies. Everything that consists of a Mafia family. This is a dark story and as it unfolded Salvatore is trying to protect Mimi from being a casualty. This is the first story I’ve read from this author and I really enjoyed it.

This was a really good read. Maria, known as a Mimi, and Salvatore have been friends since childhood. They are friends without benefits. Can that last, bcause what she doesn’t realize is he doesn’t exactly see her as a friend only. This story is a little complicated because she actually had a relationship with someone else he knew. Now his family is faced with a threat to everyone they care about and love. Would sending Mimi away be better? Keeping her with him will only risk her life, but he’s not sure if he can live without her.

Thrill Me is a wonderful and delightful mafia romance read. Its wonderful written. It has a great storyline. I enjoyed reading about these two characters. Its a page turner. It will keep you on your toes.
I read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are of my own.
It’s hard to pick a favorite from Giordano brothers, but Salvatore’s story definitely stands out.
Salvatore and Mimi have been friends for forever but he’s ready to finally make her his Doll. Their story is so much more than simple friends to lovers romance. There was so much pain and darkness in this one, until finally we get to a well deserved HEA for Mimi and Salvatore.
Storyline kept me at the edge of my seat with lots of actions, suspense and betrayal. It was engaging read with great balance of mafia storyline and lots of intense steamy scenes that are guaranteed to make you hot.
Can’t wait to read the next book!

Another dark book from this terrific writing duo and while it is the third book in the series it can be read as a stand alone but do yourself a favour and read them all
Salvatore Giordano has always wanted Maria ‘Mimi’ Cipriani but they have only ever been friends in fact Mimi believed herself in love with Salvatore’s brother Gabe. When they have a night of passion at Dark Odyssey, the sex club the brothers own and she works at is this the start for them Then danger closes in on the Giordano family will he have to let her go and start her restaurant like she wants to keep her safe or will he eliminate the threat and get to keep the woman he has grown to love. You will have to read to see what happens
These are two of my fav authors and this is another great book in this series! Dark Mafia? you bet: Mafia Families band together against other alignments in the city of Chicago involving a crooked congressman and with a big spy operating in between them! War starts with killing those most meaningful to the people at the top and escalates to full war, mowing each other down with automatic machine guns! Mimi has been a part of the Dark Odessey family since the beginning as the beautiful young woman who ‘mothered’ the girls and got along with everybody. Now we learn she grew up in a family closely related to the Giordano family, lost her mother to violence at age twelve, and is well-positioned to be the wife of the capo. This story tells how the middle of the five brothers, Salvatore Giordano, is promoted to that position and how fortunate Mimi is that another woman claimed him. Well woven plot making for a must-read.
It’s a high intensity, erotic story that got plenty of plenty twists and intrigue to keep the plot from turning smutty. Mimi and Salvatore have been orbiting each other’s world since she lost her mother at 4yo. She is party of the family and once thought she loved his brother. That’s all in the past now, but it doesn’t stop the pain and fear from prevent her from moving on with him now. Salvatore is done waiting; Mimi has always been his Baby Girl whether she knew it or not. This mafia man is going to take things into his own hands and Mimi needs to accept her feelings for him because he won’t take no for an answer.
This book is full of danger, betrayal, secrets, and lies, all wrapped up in the mafia way of life. It’s a journey between the two of them discovering their feelings for each other; learning to trust and rely each other, and what loyalty means in a family in their path to HEA.
This isn’t a complaint just so you know.
There’s a lot of backstory for these characters as well as supporting characters, as this is the third book in the installment. It easily takes the first half of the book explaining. It doesn’t seem like a lot of you haven’t read the previous book, so it’s helpful . . . But if you have, it is repetitive getting everyone’s backstory. Otherwise it’s a hot and addicting read.
