I am blown away. I have fallen in love with the families in Annalynn’s mafia books. I was so worried about Kayleigh with her past trauma. Poor girl has had a rough time but things can always change. One thing Annalynn is amazing at doing is creating extremely strong female main character who has some hard moments in life that many aren’t able to come back from while also building a family of amazing people around them. A MAJOR plus is all the smoking hot smut that is spread between the pages. I love how this book comes to a close. Of course it’s always leading to the next story that will be told but it also leaves you missing the family within the pages as you wait. I can’t get enough of these books. Absolutely wonderful work. Overly obsessed men are my favorite!!!!

Each book I read from Annalynn takes you on a rollercoaster ride. Each one has me more invested with the families of all the mafia. I love the characters she has created and I always look forward to what will happen in the next book. This one I was looking forward to. We get Kayleigh and her story. Her story had me going through lots of emotions. Erik was tornados leader in this story and I’d like all the other MMC’s. I am never disappointed in the stories and can’t wait to see what happens next.

Oh wow this was so good! I loved it! I felt so bad for Kayleigh! Everything she went through but Erik made everything better! I love him! Commanding and dominant, extremely possessive. Gave me shivers of delight! I ate this up! Extra spicy and lots of action. Also check your triggers!

Update: I no longer ARC read for this author and have stopped following all their social media pages.

Book 3 of the O'Sullivan's Series with our Irish Mafia Princess FMC vs our Scottish Mafia Boss MMC. This series is also best read with the DeLuca Series.

This is for the dark romance readers who like an age gap. Filled with smut and torture.

This is a dark mafia romance book, content warnings can be found at the author's website. If you have any specific triggers... well they very well may be found within. 3.5 stars rounded up because I still wanted to know how it ended.

Annalynn Nicole always blows me away with her books, they always have me in my knees or by the throat and filthy greed wasn't any different. Kbe been waiting for Kayleigh's story and it didn't disappoint at all. It was everything I didn't know I needed. I was on the edge of my seat, heart pounding and gripping my device like my life depended on it. It's a fast paced read that's bloody, dark, raw, intense and fucking amazing!!

It's an emotional rollercoaster ride with twists and turns that will have your head spinning and your heart ripped to shreds. Once I started I was hooked from start to finish, never wanting to put it down until it was done. It's filled with action, drama, spice, trauma, family, love, suspense, angst and loads more. It definitely was one that kept me on my toes.

Erik and Kayleigh are definitely made for each other, they meet throu terrible circumstances but he falls in love instantly and will do anything for her to be his. Kayleigh has an instant attraction to our Scottish hottie but it takes her a little longer to get there. Their journey to a hea is a little bumpy. And we get to see other characters in the story aswell. Who doesn't love a bit of Emilia's craziness.

I just couldn't get enough of these two, it was really beautifully dark. The characters, side characters, world building, plot and storyline written wonderfully as usual.

I can't wait to see who we add to the family next. Highly recommend.

Well where to begin. This was about Kayleigh. When she was in high school this guy Conor wanted to be a big shot with her family. He tried to hurt Kayleigh. Luckily Emilia was walking by and heard her. She busted down the door and what she saw angered her. So she took matters into her own hands and got him off of her. She was physically fine but emotionally not so much. Years later she was at college and she had someone come up to her in a rough manner. She made it to her car and her security had called her brother. She told her to pull over. She eventually did and he drove her home. She was engaged to Andrew at this point but not really by her choice. He was threatening her family so he told her Daid that she could move to England with him so she would be safe. Turns out she was not safe from him. After a while her family was getting short texts from her but no calls so her Daid called someone who could help. Erik found out where she was and when he saw what was going on he was so angry so he took her. She told him she needed to go back and why she was with him to begin with. He kept her safe and for a while until his ex wife Eva showed up with her nephew Brodie. Kayleigh went back to her room and called her brothers and they came to take her home. She blocked Erik and he didn’t give up. He wanted to be with her and he would do what he could to get her back. There were a lot of major events happening and everything played out perfectly. I love Emilia.

Filthy Greed by Annalynn Nicole is book three in the O’Sullivan Series. I’ll mention a couple of things here… first is I would check your trigger warnings to be on the safe side. The second being you should read these books in order as well as read the DeLuca series as well. As characters all make an appearance and it would enhance your reading in my opinion as it’s kind of interconnected. I enjoyed all the previous books so I was looking forward to getting my eyes on this one. I finished it rather quickly as I’m a fan of a dark, twisted romance so I couldn’t get enough. I think hands down my favorite character has to be Erik; he drove me nuts a bunch of times but I couldn’t help still being drawn to him. I just appreciated that he knew what he wanted and would do everything in his power to get it. I also respected Kayleigh and the lengths she would go to protect her family. My heart went out to her with everything she went through. Overall I had such a good reading experience and just didn’t want to put my kindle down. I was addicted from start to finish. I thought it was written great with characters that just suck you into the story. Not to mention it’s spicy and intense on top of it all. I would highly recommend this series but I have to say I think this book might be my favorite so far. Two thumbs up.

[Kai · Rating 5 out of 5]

Be prepared to have your mind blown—again—by Annalynn Nicole.
She delivers another dark, intense, and emotional story that will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end.

Kayleigh has already been through so much, but the situation she ends up in—trying to protect her family—is absolutely horrific. When Erik finds her, he’s determined to make her his. But trust doesn’t come easily for Kayleigh. She struggles deeply, and it’s heartbreaking to witness.

Erik is everything: patient, protective, intense, and so full of love. From the moment he lays eyes on her, he knows what he wants—and that’s her. He’s willing to do anything to help her heal and show her she’s not broken, that she’s one of the strongest women he’s ever known. You’ll fall for him. You’ll probably curse him too. But his love is real, raw, and unwavering.

This book is fast-paced, steamy, and emotionally gripping. And of course, I loved seeing Emilia show up again. She’s diabolical, chaotic, twisted—and yet fiercely loyal to her family. She brings such an unpredictable energy that you can’t help but crave.

If you love dark and twisted mafia romance, Annalynn Nicole brings it every single time. You truly can’t go wrong with this series.

[Stacey Foss · Rating 5 out of 5]

Be prepared to have your mind blown again by Annalynn Nicole. She writes a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat all the way through. Kayleigh has been through some traumatic situations and the one she ends up in trying to protect her family is horrific. When Erik finds her he is determined to make her his. Trust goes a long way and Kayleigh struggles with it. While Erik is doing everything in his power to help her heal and show her that she is not broken and that she is one of the strongest women he has ever met. Erik knows what he wants and goes after it from the first moment he see's her, he is patient and caring and truly will give her the world. This book is fast paced and intense and steamy. You will fall for Erik and curse at him at times but he truly does love her. I loved that we once again get a little bit of Emilia's diabolical presence she makes everything so crazy but you love it. She is one twisted dark woman but she will do anything for her family. If you love dark and twisted mafia romance Annalynn Nicole brings it every time you can't go wrong with this series. I was given this book as an ARC for my honest review.

"I won't risk being hurt."

This book is classified as Dark Romance, and is book three of an interconnected series. It does have a trigger warning list: grape, abort mission, nife play, blud play, black market organ "donating", primal, human traffic, other woman drama.
.

The book is written in first person. This book has multiple point of views: Kayleigh, Erik, Emilia, Cillian, Peter, and Brodie. Kayleigh wanted to become a doctor, but is an Irish Mafia Princess. She has a stalker and is engaged. Erik was contacted by her dad to check on her well being, and is the Scottish Mafia Boss. Emilia was introduced in Reign of Vengeance (HIGHLY suggest reading about her because she is by far my favorite female character of both series). Cillian is Kayleigh's brother and is the Irish Mafia Boss (book 1). Peter is Kayleigh's dad and retired Irish Mafia Boss. Brodie is Erik's exes Nephew, biggest POS imagineable.

I gave this book five stars. The reason behind that is due to how well written this book is. It does involve characters from another one of her series, and love how the two series are interconnected.

Annalynn does it again !!! She has a way of writing a story about woman who go through a hard traumatic life but come out stronger in the end !!

This story follows Kayleigh and she has been through some traumatic situations and the one she ends up in trying to protect her family is horrific. ( by now they should know to trust their family and ask for help )

When Erik finds her he is determined to make her his.
Trust goes a long way and Kayleigh struggles with it.
While Erik is doing everything in his power to help her heal and show her that she is not broken and that she is one of the strongest women he has ever met.

Of course we get to see Emilia in this book and she gets to do her things !!! Emilia is still one of my all time favourites characters so getting to see when Ron this book just make me happy !!

I love these story’s and all the mental on woman and how devotion their woman they are and the woman become so strong and powerful!! I love their family and how they always have each others backs !! These are one of my favourite book series and I can’t wait to see more of them and more story’s to come

[Jordan Fiest · Rating 4 out of 5]

Filthy Greed is book three of the O'Sullivan Mafia Series.

Kayleigh certainly goes through the ringer in this one, but she does come out of it stronger in the end. She doesn't view herself that way, but in her actions you can see that she has become stronger and more determined about things. She made some major sacrifices in order to protect her family and this was her source of her strength.

At time I liked Erik, while others I disliked him. He needed to work on his relationship with his ex wife. He let her push herself into his life too much and I was disappointed in him about how this all passed by. He also lacked some communication skills. However, you can see beneath it all that he does love and care for her. He just sometimes goes about it the wrong way.

Emilia is a great addition to the story. If there is one person you want on your side and fighting in your corner, it is definitely Emilia. She is as bloodthirsty as she always is and helps Kayleigh in more ways than one in this book. I love her character.

[Gemma Kitchen · Rating 5 out of 5]

I am a major fan of Annalynn Nicole and that is because each book you read will draw you immediately into the pages of the book and have you so immersed in the story that you won’t want it ending. This woman knows how to write a mafia book that encompasses everything you could possibly want: a family connection through each of the books with a link back to her other series, a female lead that has been dealt with a tough hard life but is kickass and strong in her own right and then our male main character which is pure alpha, intense and everything in between, he is a man that knows what he wants (who love him and want to shout at him). She brings us that steam through the pages and the devious techniques of torture, this woman is a true genius in her writing. As always these books are dark, twisted awesomeness in all the best possible ways.
Each books leads us nicely for the installment and also brings an added depth to the family dynamics in these ‘families’.

[BookLoverNicNic · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a dark mafia romance and it is in an interconnected series. You should read the others before this one, as they make cameos in this book.
Erik and Kayleigh.
Kayleigh is an O'sullivan and is part of the Irish mafia.
Erik is Scottish and part of the Scottish mafia.
Kayleigh goes through so much in this book, my heart breaks for her.
Erik and her meet after he rescues her from her abuser. He falls instantly and while they have major chemistry. It takes Kayleigh more time to fall for the Scottish viking.
There is blood and gore in this book and graphic sa scenes so read your trigger warnings.
Erik and Kayleigh find their way together through many trials and tribulations but their spicy times together burn the pages.

I did find the characters actions, at times, to be a tad cringe and over the top, but overall enjoyed the story.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[Reba Densley · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love Erik. He makes a mistake but owns up to it pretty quickly and proves that Kayleigh is the love of his life. He gives her room to breathe and heal even though every cell in his body tells him otherwise. Kayleigh does everything she can to protect her family even at the cost of her own safety and happiness. Kayleigh has such a big heart, and family is everything. She struggles to think she will ever find a man to love and treat her right, but she does....ERIC. He took one look at her picture and knew that she would be his. He banters with her father and brothers and declares the love he has for her. He refuses to let anyone get in his way, and he is eager to get rid of anyone who has ever harmed his Little Clover. You get the banter from Erik and his brothers but don't worry you get the banter from Emilia De Luca too.

[Jaime Cantrell · Rating 5 out of 5]

I swear Annalynn Nicole never ceases to amaze me. Every book I read of hers gets better and better. Filthy Greed is the most recent book of hers that I have read. It is amazing. I love the characters and the storyline. I was waiting for Kayleigh’s story, and she gave us one heck of a story for her. Throw in a broody, grumpy Scotsman and you probably have the heart of every book reader, or maybe it is just my heart. Regardless, this book is a great addition to her mafia books so far in the series she’s written. Kayliegh has endured so much, and she deserves her match. Erik is a grumpy Scotsman and he and Kayliegh are perfect together, even if it took them a while to realize it. Annalynn knows just how to pair characters together. I cannot wait to read the next book!

As always be mindful of the trigger warnings because what I like you may not.

Happy Reading!

[Maggie Lowe PA · Rating 5 out of 5]

Connor is a creep fucktard! I never liked that asshole! He got what was coming to him! Poor Kayleigh! She's been through a lot in her short life!

Andrew is a fracking monster! He got what was coming to him as did his family! Kayleigh did the right thing for her and her unborn. If she would have had them...she would recent them for what their dad did to her.

Erik and Kayleigh's relationship reminds me sooooo much of Mateo and Emilia! Kayleigh is sassy and bratty like Emilia but she loves Erik. You can feel their chemistry coming off the pages. Matoe is an overprotective Italian Mafia boss and Erik is an overprotective Scottish Mafia boss! They make the perfect pair!

I highly recommend reading this whole series and the first series. The De Luca Mafia series and the O'Sullivan Series. You won't regret it!!!

[Liz Ranne · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this! It's Erik & Kayleigh's story & it was awesome! She's protecting her family & is in a very bad situation, when her parents worry about her, they call Erik to check on her. When he saw her picture for the first time that was it for him & when he finds & rescues her, he is head over heels for her. She goes through so much trauma, & some truly horrible things happen to her, but Erik helps her through it & he has his own past catching up to him. I'm so glad that so many got what was coming to them & the spice was fantastic!! I loved seeing Emilia & her crazy self again!! This was a great book; a lot of things happen & keep in mind this isn't an easy read. Highly recommend this book & author!

[C Wright · Rating 4 out of 5]

I found this book to be a little more cringy than the rest in the series. I loved the story line and I’m glad that Kayleigh found someone. I just feel like there could’ve been less cringe and more Mafia.

Kayleigh is such a sweet girl and I’m glad she got her happy ending. She deserved every ounce of it.
Erik is a hoot and I wanted to rip his head from his shoulders but that’s okay, Emilia threatening him made up for it.

I enjoy how the stories all intertwine and you get to see past characters in the new books. I love that Mateo and Emilia were in this story and still being super protective of Kayleigh.

But that’s okay, that’s the joys of opinions and we are all open to them. I love Annalynn Nicole and I will continue reading every book she writes.

[Michelle Alyse · Rating 5 out of 5]

This one was about Kayleigh, it’s a whirlwind of hurt, lies, and love.

It starts with her being with some one name Conor, well he’s horrible. Disgustingly so. She ends up being saved by a Scottish mob boss Erik and well the rest is history. He’s serotonin keep her, to make her his. He keeps her safe, in his house, well as safe as she could get. Erik’s horrid ex and her demented nephew end up hurting Kayleigh. She is also hurt by Conor’s mother because apparently Kayleigh is the reason he’s missing 🙄.

I did enjoy that there were so many additional POVs of previous characters all coming into play in this book. It made it whole IMO.

There’s triggers in this book for sure. Please be mindful of that. It’s a heavy read, with heavy topics. Abortion, guns, rape, etc are all in the book.

[Dawn Litwiller · Rating 5 out of 5]

Kayleigh and Erik might be my all time favourites out of all of Annalynn’s books!

Kayleigh has been through quite a bit and Erik is the best thing that ever could have happened for her. Even if it takes a while for her to believe it.

I love that the female characters that Annalynn writes are always so strong, but still have to deal with and overcome their demons and circumstances. The men in their lives are strong men that help when needed but always figure out eventually that they don’t have a wilting wallflower in their women!

All the super spicy awesomeness throughout the book is a dream come true and I ate it up!

Every single book is better than the last and they each become my new favourite - until the next one! lol

Annalynn Nicole has done it again. When starting my journey with her Mafia series it drew me in from book one. And the series just got better and better with each novel. And yes filthy greed has not disappointed me. One can only feel Kayleigh pain from the trauma she's indured. But with the love of Erik she's able to start to heal. And become the woman she is in the end. And how she to trust a man again. All the women in the family are bad ass I love how each character spills over into each novel. This series has strong female characters and awesome storylines that flow. It makes one not want to put the novel done. If you're looking for an awesome mafia series look no further. Annalynn is a queen in her own right through her series. May her reign be forever.

[Megan Brown · Rating 5 out of 5]

Annalynn Nicole does it again and again. Her books are amazing. Once you read one of her books you fall in love with them all. Please before reading this book check your trigger warning, your mental health matters. Also, this is book three I would recommend reading in order. Now on to this book. This book is the most anticipated one of the bunch. The FMC is Kayleigh the oldest daughter of the O'Sullivan which is the Scottish mafia. She had a hard road to get her happily ever after. The MMC is Erik from the Irish mafia. He has to learn how to help Kayleigh without helping. There are so many twists and turns and healing. Which all Annalynn's books do.

[Jonnica · Rating 5 out of 5]

Oh man where do I even start with the story of Erik and Kayleigh. Their story is not an easy one and definitely deals with a lot of struggles that come along the way. Kayleigh has been dealt a hand of nothing but struggle and being hurt from men other than the ones in her family so opening up to her is not an easy battle for her to overcome. Erik is very patient with her knowing what battles she has been through and knows how to talk to her to help her open up because he knows what he wants and won't stop until he gets what he wants. Such an amazing read that kept me on my toes through the whole book. I can't wait for the next book in the series!!

[Jessica M Rogers · Rating 5 out of 5]

AnnaLynn once again created another story that will keep you on your toes hanging on the edge of your seat. Kayleigh and Erik, their story will have you smiling, laughing. Crying, yelling with excitement. She created another story of an unhinged diabolical man, yet had patience and softness. Kayleigh doesn’t trust. Life gave her moldy lemons, Erik took every one of those replaced them with new full of life lemons. Such a good read. Highly recommend. Deluca and O’Sullivan series are amazing. Definitely need to go check out both series!!!!!

[Rachel · Rating 5 out of 5]

Kayleigh the Irish mafia princess who is sassy and has a heart of gold. Who has endured trauma but comes out stronger than before

Erik the Scottish mafia boss who is brooding. When he sees Kayleigh he knows she’s the one for him.

Will they have a happily ever after? Will he be able to help her through the trauma she’s been through?

Run don’t walk to get this book. It will have you feeling every kind of emotions and you won’t be able to put this book down. The spice is 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ and the story line is easy to follow. AnnaLynn has done it again another amazing book.

[Chelsea Hackert · Rating 5 out of 5]

Kayleigh and Eriks story. She is the oldest daughter of the Irish Mafia and he is the Boss of the Scottish Mafia. She turns his world upside down. Kayleaigh is dealt are life full of traumatic experiences, including one that she does to try to save her family, then Erik finds her. Erik wants to keep Kayleigh around. Eriks patience in this book and determination remind me of Enzo and Gabriella. You can never go wrong with an Annalyn Nicole book. Just check your trigger warnings, as always.

[Kirsty W · Rating 4 out of 5]

Kayleigh and Erik’s story.
**Be mindful of the triggers**
Age gaps don’t mean anything when it comes to his little clover and he will do anything to protect her and keep her for himself. Kayleigh is no starter to being used and abused and having her trust broken, and it takes Erik’s persistence to show her she’s worth so much more than her traumas. Spice level: 3. As alway Annalynn Nichole delivered, can’t wait to read her next book and watch the series’s expand further!!

[Samanta Simão · Rating 5 out of 5]

Being part of a mafia family is a double-edged sword. Fame opens doors, but it also attracts all kinds of people, demanding constant vigilance. Amid so many responsibilities, the illusion that a surname alone can protect someone may take hold. One misjudgment turns into a snowball, and life is never the same again.

That was the case with Kayleigh, who, without realizing it, took to the extreme what she had learned from an early age: that a woman must hold her family together at any cost.

[redreads4861 · Rating 5 out of 5]

Finally get to see Kayleigh's story!! Loved every second of it!! WELLLLLL most of it CHAPTER 4 wasn't very nice!!! (iykyk) Just RUDE!!!! But it was amazing Erik is somewhat up there with tolerable MMCs with Annalynn. The connection that was between them was so good. I couldn't put it down!!! Check your TW before jumping into these books!!!
