Salvaged Girl
They'll risk everything to rescue her from the clutches of evil, including their lives.
You would think losing your v-card would be easy, unless you’re the niece of a controlling mafia boss. After a single failed attempt at sex in a club bathroom, I accepted my fate and started my first day working for my uncle. Only, my first day was ruined when I walked into the office and straight into an invasion. Before I could react, I was over a brute’s shoulder and tossed in a car, landing myself amid my uncle’s rivals’ territory.
Marcel Bianchi, the deadliest of men. Except the more time I spent with him and his crew, the less believable that became.
Armed with their stolen information, they refused to return me to my conniving family. Owning me started a war and the path to redemption was bathed in blood, a sacrifice the Bianchi men were willing to pay. But when the moment came, and I was snatched from the Bianchi’s bar, tossed deep into the heart of underground sex trafficking, I questioned just how far they were willing to go to salvage my life.
I was theirs, at least that’s what they claimed, but how much blood would they shed to rescue me from this fate?

This started off pretty good, I love a good mafia kidnapping trope.
But then it got confusing real quick. The timeline didn’t match up anymore. Weeks were passing without much description. The language felt ‘old’ in some parts, like maybe this was supposed to be some sort of historical/high fantasy piece at one point. Jude randomly started hating her. Jamison was floating in and out of chapters, one minute he was obsessed with her and then next he just needed to ‘get her out of his system’? Remy wasn’t a strong enough character and I actually forgot about him a couple of times. Plus, they never had their own moment together. Hugh and Marcel got most of the spotlight, yet still felt incredibly underdeveloped. We don’t get to know much about anyone’s history. Mimi was kinda funny though.
Edie was… boring honestly. She’d have fire for all of two seconds, then go back to a meek shell.
The timing of the kidnapping and SA Edie went through genuinely felt like a cop out for the last chunk of the book. Plus the epilogue focusing more on Noble was a bit of a let down. I figured we’d see them years out, functioning as a unit.

Edie is a 25 year old virgin whose mother died; which resulted in her turning to her aunt and uncle for help. Her uncle, Alfonso Gotti, is the head of the Italian mafia and has sold/traded Edie to the head of the Mendez cartel, whom is a very abusive man.
Marcel Bianchi is the head of the Bianchi mafia. He runs a tight ship but low-key has a heart. He's against anything that has to do with sex trafficking, hurting or abusing women and children. His mother and close men are his life. Besides their illegal businesses, he runs a nightclub legally.
Jamison is Marcel's right hand man and the Bianchi playboy. He's known for his charming ways, but he can be very reckless when it comes to decisions regarding Bianchi business. He tends to be on Marcel's bad side more often than not, but they truly love each other like brothers.
Hugh is one of the twins who is very outgoing and has a great sense of humor. However, he tends to get himself in trouble more often than not by acting before thinking. Unfortunately, that's gotten himself and the Bianchi boys into quite the predicament when he kidnaps Edie after breaking into a Gotti business to steal documents. Hugh may be the teddy bear type around those he's closest to, but he's one of the deadliest out of the four men.
Jude is the second twin who is very reserved, broody, and does not easily accept others into their fold. He doesn't necessarily want to be apart of the illegal crime life, but he's followed his twin's lead, and it's afforded them quite the life being close to Marcel and the others.
Remy is the youngest and tech savvy. He is also the shyest and loves to cook for those he loves. His goal is to get his sister back from the system. He's been working for Marcel since he was twelve. He is capable of getting them any information they need and is probably one of the most deadly, next to Hugh.
After Hugh and Remy kidnap Edie and discover she is Gotti's niece and that Gotti was selling/trading Edie to Mendez for land and an abandoned warehouse, the men decide to protect her from her uncle and Mendez. Unfortunately, it leads to an all out mafia war. During the time that the four men are protecting Edie, each of them, even Jude, falls for Edie in their own way. She sneaks into their blackened hearts and sets them free.
Salvaged Girl is a dark mafia based romance that surrounds one female with four males. The plot is thick, dark, and mysterious with some very sharp twists and turns. As intense and thrilling as the story gets and the concern that things won't end well, Salvaged Girl does end happily ever after in one of the sweetest endings that I've read. Edie and her men deserve the best after the lives they've lived filled with trauma, chaos, heartbreak, and death.

Basically a dream harem
✅ Twins
✅ nerdy/soft guy
✅ one that doesn't anything to do with her
Typical mafia "kidnapping" situation...gets a little dark. The 🥵🥵🥵 is there but doesn't overwhelm the book. Definitely check triggers and if you're squeamish about 🩸 this isn't the book for you. I am oddly impressed about how well some of the scenes were written.

Plot: 3.5 • Smut: 4/5 ————-> This starts off steamy and slows down for a bit. Part of this dragged. The whole climax, fight/rescuing scene specifically. We do get our HEA. And we also get a surprise pregnancy. but no surprise there really when part of the plot was Marcel cutting out her birth control implant.

Until chapter 32 this would have been a 3 star read but then the author had to go and make it way tooo dark. Graphically detailing her rape and it was ridiculous how the book only has 2 steamy scenes and it basically pg 13 until chapter 32 suddenly goes dark dark and made me almost vomit on the book. The author wrote the ending all wrong. You cannot take a pg 13 book and suddenly 360 she gets raped by multiple men. Also the fact she is taken while in their club is highly unlikely.

This was a wild ride. Dark, smutty, reverse harem, mafia romance. Delilah Mohan likes to throw wrenches into your happy reading life with dark themes and intense plot twists. Don't worry though, there is a HEA for the main characters!
Edie has been saving herself to be the perfect virgin bride, like her controlling mafia boss Uncle has told her she needs to be. But she is 25 and is about to start working for her Uncle and doesn't want to be the perfect innocent little girl anymore, so she only has one night to loose it. Instead of a hot and heavy one night stand, she finds the only man in the bar who doesn't want her v-card, and she looses her chance. The next day, annoyed, frustrated and not paying attention, she gets captured by her Uncle's enemies.
Edie now has to figure out what she wants in her life. Go back to her Uncle and play in his games, or stay with these 5, hot, strangers who are showing her that life has options. Even if those new options include sharing a room with an older controlling mafia leader, or sharing her bed with 5 men.
There are twists, turns, violence, death and a lot of touch-her-and-die energy with a side of D*V*P!
I really enjoyed this book. I haven't read mafia from Delilah Mohan before and she did a great job. I loved getting to know these characters. I wanted more when I was done, even if I was crushed at points. Mohan is the queen of crushing your soul right when you think things are looking up, but she puts the pieces back together again, even if they are a little rugged and damaged after. I highly recommend this book if you like dark reverse harem mafia romance.
Be warned... violence, sexual assault, sex trafficking, torture, breeding kink, multiple love interests together, death of side characters, brothers, age gap, and lots of cursing

First book by Delilah Mohan and it won’t be the last! I went into this book blind except the mafia part so when I started reading this delicious story with Edie and her men, it was phenomenal! What a surprise! Where is fire extinguisher?!
If you love mafia with a huge amount of RH sexiness, virgin heroine, darkness and throw in twists and turns that won’t let you go, and of course a happily ever after, then you need to grab this book. Definitely check trigger warnings if you are not comfortable with this type of book. Also, set aside time to read this because you will not want to put it down.
Thank you Delilah Mohan for keeping me captivated and hating to see this book come to an end. Amazing job! 5+ Stars!!

When Edies mother dies she turns to her Aunt and Uncle for comfort until learning that her Uncle is in the Mafia and ultimately bringing her into the family business by selling her to his another abusive boss.
This book is filled with action, tension, danger, and characters that will leave a lasting moment. Edie is my favorite. She has to be quick on her feet, learning fast how to act in the world of men who do nothing but hurt her. Marcel, Jamison, Hugh, Jude, and Remy are thrown by Edie. I don't think they realized how feisty she was going to be and I love that for her.
This was my first Delilah Mohan book but it will not be my last, the writing style and flow was done beautifully and really caught my attention.

This was a great read: action packed, RH, some danger, and memorable characters! Edie was in the wrong place at the wrong time and it changed her life . She’s feisty, innocent, and holds her own with Marcel, Jamison, Hugh, Jude, and Remy. They find her enticing and as the relationship develops it’s a beautiful story: no jealousy, lots of patience, and very spicy combinations! I loved the banter, the men’s protectiveness, and the attention to detail. The men may be dark, but she’s their light much to Marcel’s mother’s delight! Loved the story!.

2.5. I’m very conflicted bc I liked it, but some things were off. Time elapsed very quickly, and it felt like it was at the cost of needed development. And the character of Jude just confused me bc his first POV chapter was honestly like a different person who couldn’t stop looking at Edie and wanted her to be safe, and then in his next POV chapter, he hates Edie and wants her gone. What?
Anyway, I still liked reading it up until literally Jude’s second POV chapter and then it started to feel a little disjointed to me.

This book gave me everything!! Definitely read the trigger warnings as some might be triggered. I could not put this book down. I instantly was in love with the 5 men and loved Edie. Their story is a wild ride but loved the family bond they all had. I will say this story has more plot than spice but the plot is great!.

I love this author. You run the gamut of emotions when you read one of her books. I fell in love with Edie's spirit. She was feisty, loyal, and someone you couldn't help hoping for the best. Her heart was big enough for all the men in her life, and she was smart enough to know while they held similarities in their lives, they were all different and special.

I can’t recommend this book enough!!
I absolutely love mafia but I find the books so tedious to read - this was the complete opposite!
Edie’s relationship with all the guys is perfect! The book manages to fit in all the drama of a mafia book so effortlessly and leaves you wanting more. In fact I’ve just finished it but I already want to re-read!
I will be recommending this to everyone!

With the death of her mother Edie (FMC) gets taken in by her Mafia uncle. Only things don't go according to plan and with her being kidnapped she ends up in the hands of the Bianchi men - Marcel, Jamison, Hugh, Remy and Jude. Which leads entangled in a dark world of dangerous men with their own dark agendas. Great plot twists and turns with plenty of steamy content too. A good read.
August 3, 2023
Dark RH mafia romance. I appreciated the time the author took to develop all of the characters and give them each a unique personality. While the plot was predictable, it was still enjoyable. Read the triggers carefully.
August 13, 2023
I felt like this book needed one more proofread. There were quite a few typos and areas that could have been hammered out a bit better.
I was also disappointed how Edie’s trauma/recovery was just completely swept under the rug😬
