Arranged-marriage, love triangle, forbidden Mafia/cartel romance

Reinaldo Roríguez. Emiliano Ruiz.

Both dangerous, deadly, and powerful. Both second-generation soldiers proving themselves in the Roríguez cartel. Both, forbidden. I try not to think about how when I’m near them, the air crackles and my skin warms with stinging electricity, stirring something deep inside me that never before existed. I’d have to be blind not to notice their bulging muscles, sharp jawlines, and strikingly dark stares. However, it’s their deep voices that call to me in my dreams, waking me in a sweat, wondering which one I’ll answer. Even in slumber I’m torn between them. It’s all a fantasy. There will never be anything between either one of them and me. A war is coming to our world, brought to the Luciano famiglia because of the alliance with the Roríguez cartel. Dario Luciano, my guardian, wants me far away from Kansas City, safe and secure. To disobey him would be my first mistake. Falling for either of the two hottest men I’d ever known would be my second. Besides, I’m Jasmine Renner. The cartel would never approve of me, a stray without the last name Luciano, to marry one of their princes. I’m not a Mafia princess and life isn’t a fairy tale. It’s best for me to go back to university in New York and forget about both of them. If the cartel demands a second bride from the famiglia, would they want me, a stray? Which man would I chose? Will the choice be mine? Or will this war destroy everything we know?

Have you been Aleatha’d?

QUEENS AND MONSTERS is a stand-alone dangerous Mafia/cartel romance in the “Brutal Vows” series. Each arranged-marriage story is filled with the suspense, intrigue, and heat you’ve come to expect from New York Times bestselling author Aleatha Romig. Add to your TBR here: https://bit.ly/3O6Aec4

    I have a secret. I’m not who you think.   In this world, where gowns, castles, and crowns make for the perfect reflections, life isn’t always as it appears. Love is elusive, even when the most beautiful woman is right before you. Illusions distort visions, shadows lurk in the sunshine, and monsters tread behind smiles and chivalrous facades.   I, Roman Archibald Godfrey, swore an oath to…

[problematic-faves-appreciation]

You know what I find really funny? How hard certain people clutch their pearl about Lore Olympus!Hades, acting as if he's "super-duper problematic", when in reality he is the softest, least offensive hero of his subgenre; "CEO/billionaire romance" — a subgenre full of possessive, controlling, abusive, alpha male billionares whose lovers aren't safe from their darkness.

Hades isn't any of those things, except for the CEO and super wealthy bits.

The haters compare him to Christian Grey? Hades isn't your typical CEO hero, let alone a cruel one like Grey; who's not even the darkest male love interest this subgenre has to offer! Amongst the heavyweights, you have Anthony Rawlings (Consequences by Aleatha Romig), Richard Payne (Ward by Zoe Blake), Joshua Smith (Tamara, Taken by Ginger Talbot), Darren Davis (Stolen by Jay Marie), Nikolas Constantinos (All That Glitters by Linda Howard), and Calvin Cutler (Descent by Sam Marino). These guys make Grey look boringly-tame.

Hades? Hydrogen bomb (most CEO/billionaire romance heroes) vs. coughing baby (Hades). Lol

Drunk Book Tag

So it’s time for another book tag. I found this book tag over on ZeeZeewithBooks’ blog who found it on MilliebotReads blog. The tag was originally created by booktubers Chelsea and Julie from ChelseaDolling Reads and Pages and Pens respectively. And without any further ado, here’s my take on the Drunk Book Tag. 

Wine Coolers: You’re 16 and you finally managed to sneak one of your Mom’s Smirnoff Ices. What is one of your most guilty pleasure reads? 

We all know the answer to this. And that is Escape by Nenia Campbell. I love the entire series but if I have to pick a single book I’ll pick Escape from the series. Also, a good dark romance is a guilty pleasure for me. 

Beer: You’ve made it to college and are hosting your first kegger! Pick your favorite new-adult or college-aged book. 

For this prompt I’ll go with All’s Well by Mona Awad. I love all her books which I’ve read so far but I especially loved the weirdness of this book. 

Tequila: You partied too hard last night and drank a little too much Jose Cuervo. What’s a book you never want to see again? (Or your least favorite book)

I had to think about this for quite a while because I don’t normally despise books, but I ended up going with The Vampire Diaries by L. J. Smith because I can’t stand those book (s) and have no desire to see them anywhere.

Beer Bong: What’s a book you read super fast? 

For this I’ll go with Oblivion by Kelly Creagh which is the last book in the Nevermore trilogy. I waited for the book to come out for a really long time and when it eventually did, I couldn’t help but devour it. 

Spring Break: You’ve thrown your inhibitions to the wind and end up having a sexy night you’ll never forget. What is your favorite smutty read? 

I will choose Even If It Hurts by Sam Mariano. I enjoyed the dark romance and the morally gray hero. I had a really good time reading this book and I wish I can read this book for the first time all over again. 

Screwdriver: What is the most twisted book you’ve ever read? 

This is an easy one and that is Insidious by Aleatha Romig. I still have a hard time thinking that the character actually did what she did and the ending still leaves me with goosebumps every time I think about it. 

Long Island Iced Tea: The melting pot of alcoholic beverages. What is one of your favorite diverse reads? 

For this prompt I will go with Her Majesty’s Royal Coven by Juno Dawson. I loved the story and the cast and how diversity is such a core aspect of it. I really enjoyed reading it. 

Sex on the Beach: A drink that’s great in theory but wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. What is a book that just didn’t live up to the hype? 

This was a little tricky because I’m not much for hype books, and even if I read them I read them after the hype has died down. But I ended up choosing Emily Wilde’s Encyclopedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett. And it’s mainly because I didn’t enjoy the genre as such. 

Wine: You’ve just gone through a rough breakup, so you can park yourself in bed with your favorite bottle of wine, some ice cream, and a bucket for your tears. Name a book that made you cry out all your feels. 

It took me a while to get an answer for this but I choose Reason to Breathe by Rebecca Donovan. This entire series had me bawling like a baby because of everything the protagonist goes through. 

Strip Club: Your favorite naked hardback. 

For this I will go with the Fairy Loot edition of Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead. I love the entire series and the hardbacks are just stunning. 

So this is it. This is my version of the Drunk Book Tag. I tag everyone who comes across this post and I hope you enjoy doing this tag as much as I did.

Update to this post: tinx-reads-2023

Books I've read since last time:

K.A. Applegate: The Change, The Unknown, The Escape, The Warning, The Underground, The Decision, Megamorphs 2: In the Time of the Dinosaurs, The Andalite Chronicles, The Hork-Bajir Chronicles, The Departure, The Discovery, The Threat, The Solution, The Pretender, The Suspicion, and The Extreme. GOD she does Aliens SO WELL. I care about her Aliens SO MUCH argh. I didn't think I would like the Andalite or Hork-Bajir Chronicles at all but now they're all I can think about ahhhh!!!

Hide by Kiersten White wasn't super good... it felt kinda like the author was trying to rub her own back and the novel wasn't as exciting as I'd hoped.

The Legend of Beacon Swamp by Jacob Peyton had it's moments where it could have been interesting but it was so poorly written that any joy you could still derive from it vanished into the murk.

All Systems Red by Martha Wells was the STAND OUT FAVE from this group of books. All my homies love Murderbot.

Even Though I Knew the End by C.L. Polk wasn't bad and would've been more enjoyable if I'd just read it for what it was but I was thinking about some of the weirdness in the world building the whole time. I think the angels in this universe are evil and also the main character is kinda really bad.

Consequences by Aleatha Romig was pitched to me as erotica. Which it wasn't. Tried to make me think it was romance. Which is wasn't. And then the ending would've been good and interesting if the entire book hadn't been wayyyy too fuckin' long.

A Curious Beginning by Deanna Raybourn was a bookclub book that became a real slog. The main character was smug and mean and I really hated the twist in this book. I thought the author was English but it turned out she was from Texas which really shook me though.

Deadly Kiss by Ariel Marie was the first one in a romance series about lesbian vampire princesses. It was alright, but felt a little confused at times. I think I might take a look at the second one in the series though... it was charming and had some decent erotica.

As for Short Stories...

Kakekomi Uttae by Dazai Osamu was super interesting because I read No Longer Human last year and felt like this piece had SO much of the author's personal voice in the place of Judas.

Graveyard Rats by Henry Kutner which I read cause I'm hunting down the short stories from Del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities with a friend. Neither of us thought this was very good, however. We both preferred the netflix adaption.

The Autopsy by Michael Shea was fantastic. I enjoyed this one a bunch. I ended up going through the episode again because of it and I love the changes that were made from the text but for me the text had sooo much more to offer with little details in mannerisms. Plus some of the thoughts about death as a personification just really worked for me. I liked this one a lot.

Arranged-marriage, age-gap, Mafia/cartel romance, forbidden

Due to my birth order as child of the capo of the Luciano famiglia, I’m used to second place.

Second son.

Second in standing.

Never number one.

It’s the way my life has always been.

Only in the dark alleys, private clubs, and seedy establishments am I respected. Not just as the consigliere to my brother, the new capo of the Kansas City Famiglia, but also for my unmatched skills with a knife and my particular skills of interrogation. This status is as high as I will achieve. First place will forever be out of reach.

Camila Ruiz is the youngest daughter of Andres Ruiz, a top lieutenant in the Roríguez cartel. From the first moment I laid eyes on her, I knew I wanted her. She is too young and fragile to be with a man like me, a killer and criminal. I don’t deserve a woman like Camila. Taking her would ruin her.

With the newly established alliance between the Luciano famiglia and Roríguez cartel, I ask for the impossible and promise my life. With the blessing of my capo and the Roríguez drug lord, Camila is to be mine.

For once, I will be first in another’s eyes. And Camila will always be first to me.

What happens when the fragile alliance is tested?

Can I keep my promise to my wife and my oath to the famiglia?

TWs: Abuse, ableism mention, miscarriage mention, suicide mention, stalking, revenge porn mention, child death mention

I decided to take this reblog and make it into its own post. The list shall keep growing!

Problematic Millionaire/Billionaire/CEO/Tycoon Romance Male Leads Who Make Hades (Lore Olympus) Look Like Perfection Incarnate!

I ranked these guys differently here, color-wise, than I did on a certain list of mine.

The billionaire MMC (male main character) is a problematic romance hero known for generally being an asshole to his lover — Hades stands as THE ultimate exception to that rule — so I chose characters that stand out from the others regarding their douchebaggery towards the FMCs.

Cesare Falcone and his lover — The manga adaptation left out a lot of stuff, but it sure visually captured his jerkass energy perfectly. Don't let his orange status 🟠 fool you into thinking he's less of a cruel hero. This dude, not even a dark romance MMC, told his wife he would kill her if she cheated on him. Maybe he was bluffing, but still... yikes.

Billionaires are the dukes of contemporary romance, and vice versa (historical romance).

All of these guys got a HEA. Or will get one, in James Roth's case.

Top = Most Problematique

⚫ Richard Payne (Dark Obsession series by Zoe Blake)

Known for gaslighting his object of obsession into believing she was "actually" in the 19th century.

⚫ Gage Channing (The Devil's Kiss series by Gemma James)

Blackmailed the heroine to become his slave, or else he would have turned her over to the police and not paid for her sickly daughter's cancer treatment if she hadn't given in to his demands.

⚫️ Drew Kelley (The Underestimated series by Jettie Woodruff)

Abused his wife for 6 years over something that wasn't her fault.

⚫ Tony Rawlings (Consequences series by Aleatha Romig)

The man was a woman's worst nightmare.

He influenced the course of FMC's life for years, since she was a college sophomore (about 19 years old). His plans led to her abduction at the age of 26.

⚫ Joshua Smith (Tamara, Taken by Ginger Talbot)

A sadistic, billionaire/serial killer.

⚫ Quincy "Q" Mercer (Monsters in the Dark series by Pepper Winters)

🔴 Calvin Cutler (Descent by Sam Marino)

Abducted her cat.

🔴 Jesse Ward (This Man series by Jodi Ellen Malpas)

🔴 Nicholas Challoner (The Guarded Heart by Robyn Donald)

A proto-dark romance MMC?

Blackmailed the heroine into marrying him/ becoming his brood mare.

🔴 Nikolas Constantinos (All That Glitters by Linda Howard)

Also something of a proto-dark romance MMC. And the word "no" doesn't exist in his dictionary. FMC tried to escape him, but he caught her; "I would have had you back within two days at the most."

🔴 Gray Rutherford (Kiss From A Rose by Maya Alden)

Emotionally abused and neglected his wife to the point where she became suicidal. He treated her poorly for 20 years.

🔴 James Roth (Singed series by Mia Knight)

Blackmailed his ex-wife into remarrying him. He treats her like she's his possession.

🔴 Milo Sinclair (Quarantine series by Drethi Anis)

A parental figure/legal guardian–dependant relationship mixed with romance and addiction. Makes for a very toxic dynamic.

🔴 Sebastian Everett (Virtue & Vanity by Astrid Jane Ray)

His wife was completely terrified of him — and not in a fun, she-secretly-digs-that kind of way.

🔴 Callum McCord (Liars Like Us by J.T. Geissinger)

Manipulated FMC's life for five years, creating her dire financial situation to make her accept his marriage of convenience proposal. As if that wasn't bad enough, he recorded their marriage in Vatican City — trapping her! Divorce is illegal there.

🟠 Miles Osborne (Everything for Her by Alexa Riley)

Started orchestrating the heroine's life after meeting her as a high schooler. He was five years older than her.

🟠 Lucio Masterton (At the Spaniard's Convenience by Margaret Mayo)

Destroyed FMC's small company — her life work that she ran for about 15 years — to make her dependent on him. He won.

🟠 Mark Walker (Faithless Duet by Skyler Mason)

Cheated on his wife for 15 years out of spite.

🟠 Zack King (The Land Where Sinners Atone by V.F. Mason)

Had the FMC beaten to a pulp in prison, and stole her baby. He never apologized for the latter. Did not grovel.

🟠 Scott Blackstone (You Can Have Manhattan by P. Dangelico)

This man's the only MMC here that I hate. A lot. I'm still upset about the crappy cabin, and his public slandering of FMC. >:c

🟠 Noah Carter (Best Served Cold by Maya Alden)

Made a sex tape with FMC — without her knowledge — to blackmail her father. As a result, he ruined her life, and she lost her home.

🟠 Cesare Falcone (A Savage Betrayal by Lynne Graham)

Harlequin Presents sure loves its vengeful, Mediterranean billionaire heroes!

Isolated FMC at his castle home in Sicily, which was several miles away from the nearest village.

🟠 Killian Spencer (A Vow of Hate by Lylah James)

Repeatedly called the scarred heroine "beasty".

🟠 Christian Grey (Fifty Shades)

Many of the guys on this list make Grey look tame.

🟠 Preston Parker (Two Weeks Notice by Whitney G.)

FMC, who was also Preston's executive assistant, tried quitting her job on account of his bosshole ways — but she couldn't, since he had her sign a contract with an "indefinite employment term" fine-print clause written in white ink. What's more, every bonus she accepted added an additional year to the contract.

🟡 Hudson James (Say You Love Me by Sabre Rose)

Blamed his wife for their baby's death (as if he hadn't played a part in it), making her miserable. This couple's problems were solved with... cuckolding.

🟡 Sandro De Lucci (The Unwanted Wife by Natasha Anders)

The heroine attacked him, and he totally deserved it. Why did she do it? He blamed her for her miscarriage.

🟡 Bryce Palmer (A Husband's Regret by Natasha Anders)

Told his wife that he "never really loved her". He said it to hurt her.

🟡 Bram Gage (Going Nowhere Fast by Kati Wilde)

Considered FMC a bad influence on his sister. He was such an asshole about it.

🟡 Aristide Kourous (The Greek's Christmas Baby by Lucy Monroe)

Wouldn't believe his wife! >:c

Bottom = Least Problematique
