She can fight all she wants. In the end she'll still be screaming my name.
I'm her best friend's older brother.
When this feisty little thing pissed off a rival mob boss, I should have felt like a bastard for stripping her bare, spanking her ass red, and then teaching her how a good girl thanks a man like me for his protection.
But she was soaking wet and ready for me when I bent her over and took her exactly the way she needed to be taken.
Because whether she likes it or not, she's always been mine.
And she always will be.
Publisher's Yours is a stand-alone novel which is the third book in Sara's bestselling series The Godfathers. It includes spankings and rough, intense sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don't buy this book.
I received an Advanced Reader Copy and am voluntarily reviewing it. Kiera Delaney is a college student on the eve of graduation. Everything is going well. She just has a few more weeks to go. Kiera's best friend, Leena, convinces Her to go out. They end up at a club where Kiera gets into an altercation with one of the heads of the mafia family. Marco Benedetti is set on making Kiera pay. Kiera goes to the only person she knows that can help her get out of this mess. Ronan O’Malley, Leena’s brother, has wanted Kiera since the first time he laid eyes on her. This is a good excuse to get what he has always wanted. What knows Kiera has always wanted.
Kiera is a stubborn and feisty woman. Unfortunately, she made a deal with Ronan. No is not an option. While handling business, Ronan and Kiera find out some things about each other. Ronan knows after the first touch that Kiera is his. Ronan will so anything to keep her safe. I love the turn that this book took. Kiera refuses to be a pushover even when faced with punishments. Kiera grows up and becomes the woman that Ronan needs by his side. Ms. Fields gives readers everything they are expecting from her with this one. The Murphys even make an appearance. I loved it.
I know we are reading romance and scenarios are always a bit unrealistic, but this was just too much. The two main characters barely interacted before getting together and after one night of just sex, they’re saying “I love you”. Also, the female character was naive to try to get involved in saving her friend when she had no background skills. This just didn’t pull me in and I’m not sure I would read any other books by the author

You might want to 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. Kiera was sweet when she wanted to be key word here is wanted to be most of the time she was sassy, with an extremely fiery personality often defiant on purpose just to push his buttons, her mouth well it would say what it wanted without thinking, she would act without thinking and that often lead to her putting herself in danger which lead her to her current situation when she gets up in a mob boss face for mistreating women so now she needs help going to the one person who can help her best friend’s brother 😊. Ronan sexy as all get out Irish Mafia head isn’t a man you want on your radar usually isn’t nice if it isn’t needed loves his family loyal to those who are loyal to him, he is brutal, dangerous, ruthless on a good day, deadly everyday so when his sister tells him that her best friend the one woman who he has been crushing on for a while despite him being twice her age and when she calls for assistance of course he offers to help but there is a price to pay one she might regret agreeing to key word being might 😊. Both of our guys have always felt the magnetic pull and both tried to ignore it but the moment she asked for help she put herself right on his radar and he refused to ignore the pull any longer ensuring she could no longer ignore it either and the more time they spent with each other the closer they grew but also the more they learned about each other but does he push her too far, does he ask too much of her, does she push him too far, where are they headed considering how they met what they go through, and will they find their own happiness somewhere along the way?
This is the 3rd book in The Godfather’s series, but it can be read as a standalone. Kiera insults a rival mob boss and must now ask her brother’s friend Ronan to help her. Ronan is all too happy to help Kiera, but he wants something in return, her. Fast-paced read with intense chemistry and steam. Great characters and entertaining read. I liked it.
I went in blind with never reading from this author nor this series, with that being said, it was a good story. For me it wasn't that 'dark', I've read Mafia stories that were much, much darker and gory, this was tame for me. I don't know if it was me or not much it seemed like there was more inner dialog and less actual conversations that's made it seem to drag on or made me just lose focus with this story. It didn't keep my attrition like I want in mafia stories.
Kiera Dalaney, is Ronan O'Malley's little sister, Leena's college roommate when they met and became best friend and roommates after college. Ronan is as his sister states, stubborn, overprotective and a control freak, in and out of the bedroom, he prefers to spank, belt spanking, and a belt on her throat for breath control. Kiera is never allowed to tell him 'NO' for the debt she must pay for him saving her from another powerful guy, whom she threw a drink on...
She is out with her friend and sees a jerk groping at girls on the dance floor. Furious she confronts him and throws a drink in his face not realizing the danger he is. When she realizes she is in over her head she is forced to call her best friend’s brother who also happens to be the head of the Irish mob. He will help her for a price, and the price is her. He has known she was his but has been biding his time. Now he fully intends to take what is his, and keep her. The character development is good, you really get a strong sense of who each character is, their strengths and vulnerabilities. He is all Alpha dom, and she is smart and sassy with a deep need to submit. Their power exchange is hot and spicy, leading to some explicit and passionate spice. It is well written and consumes you from the beginning, drawing you into their intense dynamic. In addition to their relationship there is a mafia family drama arc that runs through the story. It is not the primary focus of the story especially in the beginning but they do have to navigate it. I did think that her “contributions” to the mission was unrealistic, not only that she would insert herself in that way but also That her very basic strategy suggestion were at all helpful, let alone pivotal. The author is very good at weaving an intense steamy story with very dominant men and sassy women who secretly crave a consuming man. There is of course a happily ever after, for as intense as the physical attraction it is also always so much more than that as the author gives you couples that literally complete each other on a primal level.

Leena reaches Keira and tells her the man is Marco Benedetti, one of the most powerful men in NYC. He is part of one of the most notorious crime organizations in the city.

“Yours” is the third and final book in “The Godfathers Series.” This is a dark mafia romance with many steamy moments, smut, violence, alpha heroes, and dark secrets. You will not be able to put it down - I know couldn’t! This is a captivating Irish Mafia Romance between Ronan O’Malley and Kiera Delaney. When Kiera gets in trouble, her best friend Leena, advises her to call her brother, Ronan. This is the last thing she wants to do, but knows if she doesn’t, her life will be ruined. He is the only one that can help! “If I’m going to clean up your mess, you don’t argue. You don’t negotiate. You don’t get to tell me no, not even once. You’ll owe me.” There is no going back ….. this was only the beginning.
“His eyes were dark, ravenous, like he was devouring every inch of me. He let out a low whistle, his gaze lingering on the bare curve of my breasts before trailing down, tracing the line of my waist, the flare of my hips.”
“Because that’s what makes me happy, love. Knowing that you’re mine. That you’ll do whatever I say. Obey whatever order I give. That you don’t get to tell me no.”
This book is a standard Mafia Romance stories, it is dark in places, violent at times, passionate in places, full of secrets, loyalties tested and let’s not forget the heat between Ronan and Kiera. The chemistry between these two is off the page! There is never a dull moment - you will be hooked! A thoroughly enjoyable read from page to page, one chapter to the next - at times you are metaphorical “on the edge of your chair” wondering what will happen next. Overall, I would highly recommend this book and you will not be disappointed 😊
The story kicks off in a nightclub where Keira, out with her best friend Leena (who happens to be Ronan’s younger sister), steps in to help a woman being harassed on the dance floor. What she doesn’t realize is that the man she challenges is Marco Benedetti—one of the most dangerous figures in organized crime. Big mistake.
Now Keira finds herself in a tight spot and has no choice but to turn to another mobster—Ronan—for help. Ronan seizes the opportunity to take control of Keira, using the situation as an excuse to “punish” her, and yes, the punishment is all about domination. If you enjoy dark romance with heavy BDSM themes, the spice level is strong 🌶️🌶️🌶️ and kicks in early, within the first five chapters.
But here’s where the story fell short for me: Ronan’s reasoning for punishing Keira felt weak. He claims it’s for her “sassy mouth” and making a mess he has to clean up, but Keira didn’t come across as sassy at all. If anything, she was more reactive and emotional, not fiery or defiant. I really wanted to see a stronger, more spirited heroine—especially since the book tries to frame her as one later on. Unfortunately, by the time her strength shows up, I had already lost interest.
The sex scenes were hot, but they couldn’t carry the story on their own. By chapter 36, I was skimming through pages. I hope the author takes this as constructive feedback and gives future heroines more depth and true fight if they’re meant to be portrayed as strong.
Kiera was in trouble, big time. She thought she was doing the right thing standing up to a jerk. Nope. Turns out he is Marco Benedetti, Italian mob. He wasn’t too thrilled with her calling him out. Now he is making her life a living hell. There is only one man that can help her, Ronan O’Malley. Ronan was not a man to be played with. Finding out that Marco was making Kiera’s life hell was going to stop. It also brough her to him faster. He has always desired Kiera and now she will do what he tells her.
You knew from the start that Leena’s brother Ronan was drawing Kiera in. She always kept away from him from the beginning. She knew he tempted her and to run to him for help was something she tried to avoid. Once she asked though, it was on. Ronan took control and Kiera pushed back. Guess what happened, hot butt. I loved these two. They were just fighting their attraction to each other, well Kiera was. Ronan was blazing ahead. When one matter was cleared up another blew up. And I was so happy to read about the Murphy’s coming in. YEAH! I had a feeling but was thrilled when I read it. And Kiera showed that she wasn’t a wilting flower. She was able to be as much help to solve the issue as ever. I loved this one. I wonder if we will find someone for Leena.

“ Yours “ by Ms. Fields was a dark, decadent, Mafia-themed book that was hard to put down. I tried to savor it and draw out the experience but failed miserably. The story has multiple sex and punishment scenes, so if this offends you, then this is not the book for you. I initially felt that the storyline was weak and only focused on the intense sexual chemistry and punishment scenes between Ronan and Kiera. Still, the plot strengthened, and I was caught up in the danger and drama surrounding this couple.
Ronan and Kiera’s relationship was a train wreck at times. It was tumultuous, but I loved how Kiera constantly pushed Ronan’s buttons. She was sassy, defiant, and impulsive, which is what led her to be in danger in the first place. Kiera had no idea what trouble she found herself in when she asked Ronan for help. His complete mastery over her was impressive. Ronan was head of the Irish Mafia in New York. He was harsh, brutal, and ruthless, but I admired how he acknowledged Kiera’s ideas.
Both Ronan and Kiera were strong characters. Together, they were a force to be reckoned with. The secondary characters were colorful and added depth to the storyline, and I enjoyed the inclusion of the Murphy family. The sex scenes were phenomenal. The chemistry was palpable, and each encounter drew this couple together.
A wonderfully written story about an outspoken young college girl getting herself into trouble, first with a son of the Italian Mafia then with an Irish Mafia boss. When the young college girl gets herself into trouble with the son of the Italian Mafia her best friend has her call her brother who is the Irish Mafia boss. The Irish Mafia boss disciplines the young college girl for her actions that caused the disturbance with the Italian Mafia boss’s son. The Irish Mafia boss disciplines the young college girl several times as well as becoming intimate. The couple informs each other how much they love each other. Everything for the Irish Mafia boss begins to go bad but after several talks with key figures he and his men with the help of the young college girl come up with a plan. Not long after everything is back to the way it was. The couple tell the Irish Mafia boss’s sister that they are together. The Irish Mafia boss shows in his own way how much he wants the young college girl in his life. The two are happy in their own way and in love. A great page turner with outstanding characters, a story with drama, intrigue, thrills, action and steamy spicy romance with a happily ever after ending.

Kiera Delaney cannot believe that standing up to a creep in a nightclub could cause so much trouble. A fun night out with her best friend and roommate turned into a nightmare just because she told off a guy harassing other women in the club. The only person who can help her happens to be her best friend’s brother, Ronan O’Malley. He is one of the most powerful crime bosses in New York city, and she has no idea what she is signing up for when she asks him for help.
Another deliciously dirty read from one of my favorite authors. Needless to say, I loved this book and highly recommend it to other readers and fans of this author. As always, the characters in this book are wonderfully well written and compelling. There are a lot of steamy, sexy interactions between the lead characters which includes spankings as well as some BDSM. Suspense, unexpected twists in the plot, and a happily ever after, this a must-read book.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary ARC of this book that I received from Book Sprout.
This is an entertaining third book in the series, totally impossible to put down once started I have been looking forward to this the third in the series, he is the one man that had known her brother since they had been youngsters. He had also known the sister of his best friend and had known her since she was a youngster and now, he was in a position to make her pay for the embarrassment caused after she had decided to throw wine in his face. Kiera Delaney has always had a terrible temper when she has believed someone is being used and this was why she had lost her temper in the bar and now it seemed as though she was going to pay dearly for this transgression. The punishment that he has in mind will ensure that she knows that Ronan is in control and will not take any more of her attitude, he has always considered her as his and is about to ensure that she never ever forgets this matter. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the wonderful writing.
Another great crime rivalry story wrapped around a scintillating dom/sub romance by Ms. Fields. Kiera was an innocent girl who made the mistake of confronting the wrong man in the wrong way. Fortunately her roommate’s brother, Ronan, took her under his wing to protect her. However, his price was exceedingly high! Their relationship starts off confrontationally, him being super dominant, controlling and stern and her fighting him off while also fighting off her internally conflicting reactions to him. After many confrontations and the most physically intrusive punishment yet, they both come to grips with their own internal conflicts and a new “Team” effect begins to take over. When the external forces (rival families) begin a dangerous level of violence, Ronan and Kiera’s new found internal force leads them to the HEA neither expected, but fully delighted in. The copious punishments, sex and violence are all very severe in nature and are not for the faint of heart. However, for those looking for an adrenaline rush this book is absolutely perfect. 5 Stars
I tend to download book sample from authors whose storytelling I am not familiar with. This is one of the fastest, most enjoyable and more than spicy book I have read in awhile. Hence the 5 star review. This is my first Sara read, and I hope I get to read one of her other stories soon. This had my head turning from the get go. I can appreciate an author who gets down to the nitty gritty and spares me the slow burn. She does it with Ronan, a strong, confident and knows what he wants kind of guy, who isn't afraid to take what he wants. More than that, his chemistry with Keira is top level before we even turn to page one. Our girl, Keira, is not a shrinking violet. She knows who he is and respects his power, but her reluctant and stubborn nature keeps him at bay, until it doesn't. There are other characters, but they're only to propel their story further. To say, I like this is an understatement. I plan on reading it again, and again, and again. Enjoy.
Marco Benedetti is from the most notorious crime family in New York, and Kiera just accosted him, called him a dirt bag, and threw her drink in his face. Now, he is making her life a living hell---beginning with her education. Her roommate has a brother, Ronan O’Malley, an Irish mafia boss, who may be able to help, but at what cost? His persona is wicked, dangerous complicated, and yet alluring. He could terrify her, yet also make her feel safe. What a conundrum he presents!
This is one sensually rough, HOT, deliciously naughty story. Well, once Ronan agrees to help Kiera, she will be exposed to harsh punishments as well as an onslaught of ecstatic pleasures.
As Kiera felt anticipation along with her vulnerability, so did I. This story is mesmerizing and alluring. I loved how Kiera cane to understand and slowly accept both facets of her desires.
This is Ronan and Kiera's entertaining story. Kiera and Leena are best friends and have been for years. Leena's brother is the head of the Irish O'Malley family. Kiera confronts someone at a club that she shouldn't have. Because of the situation, Kiera has to ask Ronan O'Malley for help. Ronan doesn't give help for free. This story has danger, violence, suspense, control, steam and spice. This book will keep the reader entertained from page to page.

Yours is the 3rd book in The Godfathers series and follows Kiera and Marco. Kiera is in a bind after a night at the club with her friends where she calls out the behavior of a man who was harassing women. What she didn't realize at the time he's not just any man but Marco Benedetti Italian mafia. Now he's out to make her life a living nightmare. She knows there will be a price for his help but her option is to reach out to the last person she wants to call her best friends brother Ronan O’Malley Irish mafia boss. While the mafia aspect of the story was good I have to say I really disliked Ronan through most of the story. I never felt any real connection or emotion between him and Kiera. Sure there was spice but it felt forced, one-sided and not organic.
I received an ARC through Booksprout an I'm voluntarily leaving my review.
Sometimes fate draws you closer! I love Kiera for sticking up for the rights of all women at the bar when a man with a god complex thinks he can have any woman he wants. Only problem is that said man, Marco is part of the mafia and makes Kiera’s life a living hell. With no place to turn than her best friend, Leena’s brother, Ronan for help, Kiera’s life becomes a whole lot more complicated. With Ronan setting the stage with Marco that Kiera is now his woman, one would think all would go back to normal. Except there is a war brewing in Ronan’s territory and determining who is the enemy is top priority while rescuing his sister. I love how Ronan and Kiera find their stride with mayhem around them. Will Ronan and Marco work together to eliminate the enemy in time? You have to read to find out!
I truly enjoy a Sara Fields book. Her books are not for everyone, you definitely should make sure you like the type of books she writes. But if you do? You won’t be disappointed. I especially loved this one. I loved that Ronan was all about making sure Kiera understood that the lessons she was learning was not to be a doormat, but to learn to control her fire. He didn’t want a doormat, he didn’t want her to stifle her inner flame, he just wanted her to learn to control it and learn how to use it properly. It was fabulous. And Kiera was great as well. I loved how when she finally admitted what she wanted she threw herself wholeheartedly into learning to be his queen and his equal. They were a wonderful pairing. The steamy scenes were so steamy and their relationship was amazing!
I did receive an ARC from Booksprout and this is my honest opinion.
Sara Fields’ latest is an offshoot of the much-loved Murphy clan in this New York set series featuring the O’Malleys in “Yours.” Ronan was an entertaining MC and far less severe than Kieran Murphy (although he’s still my fave). And Kiera made for a strong counterpart to him. Their interactions were pure entertainment. And I loved HOW reluctant Kiera was asking for help from Leena’s older brother and that was before she knew how powerful he was. I feel like the backstory/suspense could have been stronger and I’m assuming that we’ll see more of this if this series continues, but I did find that I was left with questions at the end. Overall, it was an entertaining read and a lovely way to spend the evening.

I was astounded while reading this book, I was riveted to my seat until the very end, the story was written well and with depth and the characters were sensational. This story was about Ronan, the Irish Mob Boss and Kiera best friends with Lena Ronan's little sister. The description of everything the characters and everything else in between, was great it was easy to imagine what it was like, the graphic scenes were electrified hot explosive. The war was brewing between the Mafia family's, it was a fast paced story, and now his sister is missing and one of his men killed.

This one kept me entertained for hours. Couldn't stop reading, turning pages of pure steamy, lusty, crude, dominating, perverse , pleasure reeling sex scenes. Sara Fields definitely knows what captures her audience. She had a way of making you want what the casting female wants or has, even though you know you would never allow any person to put you through that kind of pain/pleasure.
The story line is fabulous and doesn't leave you up in the air about what is happening. Very well written and smooth reading from one passage to the next. Still makes mafia people seem glorified. Not the drug dealing, arms selling thugs most of them are.
Kiera makes a grave error one night out with her friend in a club. Now she has to ask her friends’s brother to help get her out of the trouble she is in. Problem is, she knows Ronan will not help her unless she gives him something in return. And the thought of what that something is, terrifies her. Ronan has wanted her for himself since the first time they met. So when Kiera calls asking for his help, he is more than willing to help. But it will cost her. I loved Ronan’s all-consuming and intense personality. Plus the intense build up to those spicy scenes was fantastic. Watch as the flames of desire ignite in this steamy mafia romance.
Another perfect one Sat down read it through until the end. It was just enough of everything. Sassy vs @$%hole and the sparks fly. Match set. When you piss off a baddie you need someone badder. He thinks it's time she learned a lesson and doesn't have a problem teaching her. With the Mafia something always about to pop off. Then it does and Ronan and his people are left scrambling. It was awesome to see old faces, makes you want to go back and reread their stories. The danger tense, the heat scorching. Enjoy.

Love a bit of Irish mafia & this certainly delivered.
Kiera was a delight, and the way she seemed to grow so organically throughout the book was top notch. Loved her fire and defiance— Kiera was all courage and sass, & it worked into this story so well.
Ronan was… drool worthy. Ruthless, deadly and makes loyalty look like art. Family is everything, but then so is Kiera.
The two together are like fireworks, in the way they can light up the darkest of nights but also have the capacity to cause destruction and chaos.
I really enjoyed this.
Great storyline. Nice slice of spice. Enticing, and relatable characters.
Kiera has a problem "choosing her battles," but when she sees a big lug manhandling random women in a club, she throws a drink at him and tells him off. Unfortunately for Kiera, he's the son of a mafia dom and isn't about to forget. She calls for help from the only person she can think of Ronan, her BF big brother and the head of the Irish mafia, but he will not help her unless she gives him something in return. Great characters, fast-paced storyline, action, drama, sizzle, steam, and so much more. I loved this read, but honestly there isn't much the Sara Fields writes that I don't love. 5 solid stars.

The blurb clearly represents the male main character's (MMC) declaration, while the title belongs to the female main character (FMC). These two have been circling each other for quite some time, and one particular event gave the MMC the opportunity to claim her and make her his. It was evident from his actions that he had no intention of letting her go.
Regarding the FMC, her naivety and false bravado can be quite frustrating. It's no surprise she found herself in trouble. Fortunately, she has the toughest ally at her side. Ultimately, she did redeem herself in the end.

Kiera is trouble, she has a disagreement with Marco Benedetti, who is part of the Italian mafia. His revenge was to make her life hell. Kiera knows the person who can help her is Ronan O’Malley. When Ronan finds out that Marco was making her life hell, he is the man to stop it. Ronan has always had a soft spot for Kiera. When these two get together it is hot and steam.
One stubborn alpha Irish man and one very strong feisty woman. Both bring the worst and the best in each other.
