I’m a man with an immoral compass. A convicted killer in one country and the right-hand to the devil in another.Javier Lucas offers death without mercy—something my enemies don’t live long enough to tell, but the carnage left behind paints a brutal story. I have no soul. No regrets. This is who I am, and I embrace the darkness that flows through my veins while blood stains my skin.And I’ve never … skin.
And I’ve never wanted more until…
Our eyes met and my world took a pause. One flirty exchange and I vowed to tame her wildness.
Fate is a word I now believed in.
Because it led me to her. To my beautiful little criminal.

“Crazy embraces lunacy without question.”
These two stole my heart right from the start
Devoured this storyline in one sitting and savored every moment
“In not making sense, we fit. In not being afraid to be who we are, we become stronger.”
You know those heroines that are all wishy-washy and make your head swivel like a bobble doll?
Mariah is soooo NOT that.
She has got enough fire and fight for an entire army while at the same time she has the softness, the curves, and that hidden desire to be loved for who she is.
And Javier? He is the websters definition of the perfect example of a balance between cold-blooded killer and the perfect boyfriend.
No, I am not kidding.
He can be dissecting the enemy, covered in blood, and still pop that wink that makes a woman melt – Then moments later deliver her a tiramisu, Netflix, and chill evening.
Be still my beating heart.
This whole series is a perfectly blended mix of romance, suspense, and violence (yes there is graphic violence so if torture mayhem and crimson rivers is not your thing…)
He’s dangerous. She’s full of sass. Are they a match made in heaven?
I loved Javier’s character. A force to be reckoned with, he’s a man on a mission. Mariah fights her attraction to him, but she soon finds it easier to give in to her desires. I loved their push and pull, and the action was pulse pounding! As secrets are revealed, is anyone truly safe from harm? Javier and Mariah’s story was engaging, steamy, and oh so hot!
Javier and Mariah
I’ve been wanting to read about them even since I’ve read the last book and I couldn’t wait to read this story it was really great and I really loved it so much and I can’t wait tell your next book comes out
WOW! What a wild ride.
Elena is the queen of the most romantic and merciless mafia romances.
Her books are not sweet, they are hard-edged and unfiltered.
This story is proof of that.
Murder, revenge and the though mafia life is the content of the story. She doesn’t beautify the negative side of that life.
But she manages to make the story romantic and swoony, despite the constant presence of death and destruction.
Don’t let me start about the erotic side of this book. Scorching hot is too small word to describe it
Javier…
One should actually hate and condemn Javier after reading this book, but his ideals and the loyalty to his family make him likeable even lovable.
He is a killer and unpredictable and despite this fact, amazing if comes to his loved ones.
And don’t forget hot, Gosh this man is really hot .
“Be-careful-where-you-read-this-book – hot”
Mariah is not like other female characters in the mafia romances. She grew up in this brutal world and is like everyone in the ” family” dangerous and well trained to kill if necessary.
She is a badass woman who has been betrayed and disappointed in her life more than once, but she is a fighter and knows how to survive in this world.
I love this crazy, unpredictable and dangerous couple. They are definitely something else.
I recommend this book to all mafia romance lovers.
Finally Javier! Great story of family and love. Mariah thinks she’s unworthy of love, Javier is there to prove her wrong. Lots of steamy chemistry between these two. Action and adventure across two continents. Deeply rooted in family and the importance of sticking together.
Javier Lucas is a killer, the right hand to the mafia king and extremely ruthless. One petite and feisty woman named Mariah Asher, might just break that tough exterior around his heart. Javier is Alejandro’s cousin and a powerful player in their corrupt world. When he takes a job with another mafia player, he is instantly attracted to Marcus Asher’s cousin Mariah. Can he get his revenge for his family and find a way to mix business and pleasure? This is an assassin, insta love, mafia romance. Well written and plenty of action. This can be read as a stand-alone. Told in dual POV

HEA ( with several extended epilogues )
If you are a fan of mafia genre this book is defiantly for you !! I read in just one sitting – could not put it down. I’m off to one click more of this authors work.
Highly recommend Yours as well as this author !!
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I loved Javier & Mariah. I loved their story and their relationship. Once i started reading i couldn’t put it down, i was hooked. For many reasons they shouldn’t be together, but they were what the other needed, they just fit together.
I’m loving the Beautiful Sinners series by Elena M Reyes and Yours was another win!
Javier Lucas is sinfully hot. Dangerous to a T but you can’t help but want him. A ruthless assassin that knows who and what he wants and will stop at nothing to have her.
Mariah Asher. Strong willed, determined and guarded. Rightfully so. She has a past that’s hard to forget and after being burned she’s cautious and deliberate. I have to admit, I admired her resistance to Javi. Any other woman would’ve caved a lot sooner and while it’s frustrating in the best way, the slow burn between these two was so worth the wait.
Spanning two continents, Yours is done in true Elena fashion; detailed, accurate, raw and unfiltered. Gritty and clever. Hot and wild.
If you’re a fan of mafia romances, I highly recommend this series. It’s very different to the norm of the trope and definitely addictive!
