Sein Eigentum

Mafia Kingpins #1

by Ava Gray, S. Bottcher (translator)

Er soll ihre ältere Schwester heiraten, aber er kann sich nicht von ihr fernhalten ...

MICELI
Die Welt der Mafia ist kalt und grausam. Ich lebe nach einer Ihnen die Kehlen durchschneiden, bevor sie dir die eigene durchschneiden. So bleibe ich rücksichtslos und an der Spitze meiner Mafiafamilie.
Aber wenn ich etwas sehe, das mir gefällt, nehme ich es mir. Das ist bei Alessia DeLuca nicht anders, die meinen Rivalen heiraten soll ... während ich ihre ältere Schwester heiraten werde.
Als Alessia etwas sieht, was sie nicht sehen sollte, ist ihre Entführung die einzig logische Antwort ...
Sie zu entjungfern, ist es sicher nicht.

ALESSIA
Seitdem ich ihn bei einer Verwechslung kennengelernt habe, bin ich von Miceli Rossi fasziniert. Er sagt, er bekommt immer, was er will, und es ist offensichtlich, dass er nur von einer Sache besessen ist ... von mir.
Er kann mich zwingen, ihn zu heiraten. Er kann mich sogar dazu zwingen, seinen Ring zu tragen.
Aber ich werde dafür sorgen, dass ich die schlechteste Ehefrau bin, die er haben kann.
Und ich werde alles dafür tun, dass er nicht merkt, wie sehr ich ihn will.

“ I’ve never kissed anyone before and it becomes clear very quickly that Miceli is a master kisser.” 🤦🏻‍♀️
The story has a potential but this and other things are hard to read!
Unfortunately!

This is a Mafia Romance, and this is the first book in the Mafia Kingpins series. I loved getting to know the characters in this book. The two main characters had a connection for the very beginning, and I found the beginning of this book to be cute and funny about the mixed up. I think Miceli and Alessia romance was fast moving. The ending was good. I wanted more action and grittiness because if I read a Mafia I want some dark and gritty with my romance. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.

So bad

I recently got into mafia romances, this was a very poor attempt. I didn't get mafia at all. The way he decided she was his and the great love of his life within five minutes of meeting her just made me cringe, it went downhill from there. There other guy was a cartoon villian and they were all so one dimensional. I kept reading thinking it can be so bad but it was, I've given one star because I finished it, what a waste of time though

Lust at first sight. The only thing I didn't get was that H was a mafia but only had one bodyguard around him.

Alessia is arranged to be married, she is less than pleased by the hand she has been dealt as the daughter of a mafia man. When she meets who she believes is her future husband, Miceli, she is pleasantly surprised. There is a spark between them but when she finds out he is the intended for her older sister, disappointment sets in and the man to be hers frightens her.

Miceli intends to have Alessia, he knows it may start a war but he also knows she is meant to be his. When his plans don't get the results he wants, he takes matters into his own hands. Can the threats coming his way be thwarted or will it destroy everything he is building?

This was fun, a bit rushed at times but I enjoyed how the characters connected and the ruthlessness of Miceli. Looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

4 stars

Tropes : mafia romance, insta love, possessive H, alpha H, arranged marriage, forbidden love, innocent h, age gap (10 years)
Ending : HEA
Triggers : attempted SA, kidnapping, abuse, violence, 💀, gore
Spice : 🌶️🌶️/5
Angst : 🔥🔥/5
OM/OW drama : OM (supposed to be h’s intended)
Intimacy details: virgin h, vanilla sex, oral
Standalone/Series : part of interconnected series

Hero : Miceli Rossi (34)
Heroine: Alessia DeLuca (24)

This is a lighter version of mafia romance than what I normally read and it was pretty enjoyable. This got insta love vibe to it and got more romance than action but still good.

Miceli was a gentleman since the very beginning, it’s not a dark romance by any means so if you’re interested in reading a mafia romance that has a smitten H since the first chapter, this would be for you.

The steam was not crazy. Their first time was explicit but a couple times after that was not detailed so the smut level was pretty low but I’m okay with that.

The ending was good with both of them have a 1 week old baby boy. Both of them were being cute.

I enjoyed this one. I loved how she mistook where she was originally supposed to go and then she found the love of her life. I like her spunk!

[Hailey Nawrocki · Rating 1 out of 5]

there being 3 spelling errors in one paragraph really sets the tone for this whole book honestly.

y’all need to stop with the instant love within seconds of meeting someone and then just instant marriage and no getting to know each other, no angst, nothing. even the kidnapping was lackluster. like i’m sorry but i want MORE kidnapping, more anger more intrigue. idk man

If you’re into love at first kidnapping then this is for you. Spelling errors and just cheap plot ruined it that I couldn’t finish the book.

This was an absolutely amazing book one that I couldn't put down, I loved Alessia and Miceli the instant attraction they had when they shouldn't, they belong to someone else. Alessia catches an Uber and takes off she's running because she doesn't want to marry the person she was given to Bianchi, he ended up putting a hit on her that's when Miceli saved her then married her. The chemistry between them was hot 🔥 hot.

Really enjoyed the relationship and two main characters in this, it felt a bit quick for their romance but I still enjoyed it. I liked seeing the softer side for once and not all hard/coldness which was a nice change in a mafia romance, I would have liked a bit more action/danger as it’s mafia but still a lovely romance

This was an awesome read from the get-go. There was just something about the powerful handsome Miceli from the get go, and his obsession with Alessia. This was a quick to burn romance, with lots of mafia action and charm. I loved how I couldn’t put this book down, & that the characters were easy to relate to and follow along. Really enjoyed this story!.

She wasn't what he had expected and it was refreshing. But when he called her Gia, Alessia knew that she was in the wrong room and left which really made Miceli mad. He meets Gia and didn't want the beautiful stature-like, stoic mafia princess and told her that he couldn't marry her.
Miceli tells Aldo that he can't marry Gia and that he wanted Alessia. Aldo tells him no because he made a promise to Rocco's father a year ago for Alessia to be Rocco's wife. Miceli couldn't believe that Aldo turned him down and tell him no, and nobody tells him no. He gets what he wants and he was going to come up with a plan to tell his woman. Because he had claimed her for himself from the moment he saw her. Miceli and Rocco was bitter rivals and she didn't deserve to be with him. Because he's villainous, violent and takes pleasure in hurting his woman and he wouldn't think twice to breakdown Alessia and destroy her spirit.

It is then that he saw her leaving her house and hopping into a rideshare and followed them which ended at Penn Station. He got out and asked her what she was doing and she told him that she was running away because she didn't want to marry a stranger and choose for herself. As the two was talking Miceli saw a threat, a mask man came out and started shooting at them in broad daylight. Miceli shield Alessia and killed the guy, then took her home with him thus kidnapping her, that wasn't his plans in getting her but when the circumstance arises he took advantage of it.

Rocco's had been a warpath since Miceli stole Alessia from. He thinks that Alessia belongs to him. He's unhinged since Miceli took Alessia and the two got into a fist fight and he threatened Miceli that he has not won and that he's going to lose everything.
Rocco wants more territory and to takeover some of the Milano's territories because he feels like they're not doing a good job. But according to their great-grandfathers each of the Five Families were allocated a specific territory from their time and each member must stick to their respective territories and they must not go against each other. Rocco doesn't longer want to go by truce set for the Five Families centuries ago by their great-grandfathers and is willing to spill the blood of any of their members to get what he wants starting with Miceli.
Rocco setup a diversion for Miceli about his Enzo being shot and at the hospital, and where he would kill Leo, and kidnap Alessia from the doctor's office since he's delusional and believe Alessia belongs to him. Miceli no longer care about the truce and decided to end it this craziness after Rocco took the woman he loved and put his unborn childs life in danger. He and his brother's storm his estate and rescued Alessia from that madman killing him. I'm going to stop here and you would have to read the book to find out Miceli faith with the Five Families. Will they kick him off the table? Will Rocco's family retaliate for the death of him? Did Rocco hurt Alessia? Did Leo died in the shoot-out? Find out in this spellbounding and pulse-pounding mafia story where this innocent woman conquered this big and dangerous mafia boss.

I hate when the book objectifies women.

Heroine -virgin ( As usual, majority of the heroine feel vulnerable and stupid if she is a virgin. She think of herself as low, idiot. I mean, I hate when stories highlight virginity too much. "Virgin blood", innocence blah blah blah.

Point to be noted - These so called virgin hunters are Manwhores.

I hate when Hero talks about other women and compares with the h. How inexperienced, how innocent she is...I cannot handle such asshole even for a sec.

So yes. this book isn't for me.

These people lives in some centuries where they gave no choice to women's opinion, women are stupid, dumb and idiot, evennif she escapes she cannot be successful because you know, they are stupid, these men manhandle their women, take her Virginity shit like a trophy and expect her to be a trophy wife for his wish and obviously Manwhores everywhere.

I enjoy virgin romance, but whenever she thinks herself low just because she is a virgin...I cannot consume that thought, nor when the heroines dad knows about her virginity status and makes a big deal... That's creepy as fuck...

2/5 🌟
Soooo...... This book was tolerable. It was more of a lust at first sight than attraction. Alessia was tolerable. Despite being born in the mafia world when miceli killed a guy protecting her she was shocked out of her mind. I mean she is pure dumb not innocent. In this world it's kill or get killed and that is basic. We as readers even understand that but she who is born in this world doesn't. Soo she was definitely not my favourite. Now miceli's vocabulary needs a complete changeover. Phrases like "little girl", "little wife", "she had my dick", "owing my prize" just irritated me. THAT LITTLE GIRL ACCORDING TO YOUR VOCABULARY IS YOUR WIFE WHO HAPPENS TO BE 24 YEARS OLD. She is not little or even a girl. She is a mature woman who knows what she is doing.
This book pissed me off most of the time and I am not planning to continue the series right now.

His To Own - Ava Gray

Not a lot to swoon over. Just mediocre all around. The obvious swooning and insta-attraction from an alleged self-proclaimed ladies' man, a killing machine mafia don seemed wimpy and sappy. This man continually thought if he did her right sexually she'd be ecstatic to be with him. After all, he thought he was quite the catch. The "spicy" scenes? I can only give one🌶. Very mediocre or less. Grammar and vocab? A lot of errors. At some point, it seemed there may be a 14-year-old ghostwriter in a few chapters mid-book. All in all I'd have to say even the mc's are immature. Painful to read.

[Christinaraven · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the story of how Alessia and Miceli meet and the trouble they have. For a mafia story, it was actually pretty clean and upbeat. While there is some trouble and danger, they get their happy ending and not have to go through horrible things to get their. It more focuses on them. But get to see Miceli be an alpha mafia man. It made me laugh at times as these two basically get their insta love connection. I enjoyed it an would read the next story to see what happens next especially if Gia gets her happy ending too.

The start to the Mafia Kingpins series once you start you won’t want to put it down want make sure to double check that you are buckled up, dangerous men, alpha’s personified, possessive, oh, gorgeous, brooding all the makings of a story consisting with three D’s (dark, delicious, and dirty) 😊. There will be suspense, betrayal, death, darkness, secrets reveled, violence, hope, forgiveness, and maybe even love along the way. Sometimes a mix-up is the best thing that can happen. Alessia and Gia knew they would be married off to further their family’s position within the mafia. Alessia was given to Rocco a brutal leader not a very nice man and Gia to Miceli but somehow, they went to the wrong room thus the mix-up. Alessia is sweet when she wants to be meets the wrong man by mistake but the more, they get to know each other they both realize they are meant to be with one another and so that is what they end to do. Miceli sexy as all get out dangerous, ruthless on a good day, deadly everyday knowing he must get married but the moment he meets the women he thinks he is supposed to marry, and he is happy about marrying his girl until they discover she is the wrong girl meant to marry Rocco and he wants her. So, he asks his father who tells him no he can’t marry Alessia, so he leaves taking his girl with him and the magnetic pull just grows stronger so does Rocco relentless pursuit especially after marrying her out of protection but will he continue to protect her, will Rocco give up on trying to take her, will her sister have to marry Rocco, and have they found happiness along the way?

Alessia is a mafia princess. Both her and her sister have been promised in marriage to two different bosses of one of the five families to strengthen the ties between the 3 families. Alessia is innocent and she is nervous about the entire situation and does not want to be forced into marriage at all, let alone to a stranger. Through an unexpected mix up, she meets Miceli who is actually promised to her sister. They have an immediate attraction before they realize their mistake. Miceli decides instantly that he has to have Alessia by any means. Alessia meets her actual match and decides she will stand up for herself and runs away. Miceli, giving into his need to have Alessia and follows her when she sneaks out of her house, only to end up saving her life when there is an attempt on her life.

This is a cute mafia romance. Miceli is all you expect from a mafia boss, and Alessia is a predictable innocent mafia princess but when backed against the wall, she finds her hidden backbone and makes decisions for herself. I really enjoyed this story and I am excited for future books in this series. Plenty of steam, great characters, and a cute love story between Alessia and Miceli. Definitely works the read.

Strana Family Book Blog
La trama risulta avvincente, elemento che mi ha spinta a prendere in prestito il libro dalla biblioteca di Prime Reading; ciononostante, la qualità narrativa presenta delle criticità. L'incipit è indubbiamente coinvolgente, poichè tre delle più influenti Famiglie puntano a consolidare le proprie alleanze nel mondo cr1m1nale. Aldo intende unire in matrimonio le sue due figlie, Gia con Miceli e Alessia con Rocco; tuttavia, a causa di un involontario errore, appena prima dell'incontro le coppie si scambiano. Miceli, colpito da un'immediata attrazione, manifesta il desiderio di sposare Alessia, ma tale proposta incontra l'opposizione sia di Aldo che di Rocco. Questa dinamica è il cuore dell'intero romanzo. Purtroppo, si riscontrano numerosi refusi, presumibilmente derivanti da una traduzione non accurata. Sebbene queste mancanze non compromettano gravemente la lettura, la loro presenza è innegabile. Il finale l'ho trovato un po' troppo frettoloso e mi sarebbe piaciuto leggere qualche pagina in più. Sono previsti volumi successivi, sempre autoconclusivi e indipendenti, che si preannunciano interessanti, con personaggi che mi hanno incuriosita. Non ritengo opportuno esprimere una valutazione negativa, ma neanche assegnare il massimo dei voti.
Valutazione:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Alessia & Miceli

Ein tolles Buch mit einer interessanten Idee. Der Schreibstil ist leicht und flüssig, mit einer wechselnden Erzählperspektive beider Protagonisten.

Die Handlung verläuft ziemlich schnell und doch ist sie spannend, nervenaufreibend und es gibt viele tolle Momente. Ich mochte beide Protagonisten sehr und sie passen so unglaublich gut zusammen.
Alessia ist temperamentvoll, allerdings auf die süße Art und Weise. Liebevoll, freundlich und mitfühlend.
Miceli ist ein toller Mann, sehr beschüzerisch, liebevoll, schlagfertig, loyal, besitzergreifend und würde alles für seine Familie und mehr für Alessia tun.

Kleines Manko von mir ist, das ich die Mafia Vibes nicht spüren konnte.... Das Buch ist als Teil einer Reihe über "Mafia Prinzen " ausgeschrieben, doch nichts in dem Buch hat wirklich diese Vibes.
Wenn ich ehrlich bin, hätten die Oberhäupter nicht ab und zu das Wort Mafia erwähnt, hätte es sich hier auch einfach um normale Kriminelle handeln können....
Für Mitglieder einer Mafia gehört mehr dazu als mit Waffen zu schießen...

Dennoch für zwischendurch ein tolles Buch, das zwar einige dunkle Szenen hatte aber das eher oberflächlich gehalten ist und für eine Storyline über Mafia total harmlos ist.

[La testa fra i libri · Rating 2 out of 5]

La storia ruota intorno alle sorelle date in sposa a due uomini e il matrimonio non previsto tra Miceli e Alessia.
L'autrice è stata brava a descrivere il colpo di fulmine tra Alessia e Miceli, però, a mio avviso, con l'elemento mafia non è riuscita a essere realistica poiché è limitato e poco sviluppato.
Ho trovato 'fastidioso' che le due sorelle Deluca fossero trattate come oggetti da consegnare a due uomini della congrega delle cinque famiglie mafiose americane, e che la verginità di una delle due fosse presentato come un premio da vincere, per poi battere i pugni sopra il petto con orgoglio. Inoltre, l'ossessione di Rocco per Alessia non è logica: lui la considera sua perché 'è così'.
Le scene che coinvolgono i capi mafia della congrega, quando vengono mostrate al lettore, si concentrano sullo stabilire chi è il proprietario di Alessia, e non sul discutere 'di affari'.
Aggiungo che alcune situazioni sono inverosimili (SPOILER: avviene una sparatoria per le strade di NY e niente polizia? Niente notiziario? Nessuno che si spaventa?), e che le caratterizzazioni degli uomini di mafia non corrispondono al ruolo che, solitamente, si guadagna, e si mantiene, per carattere e temperamento.
