Belluci Mafia #1-3
The Don's Corruption
CORRUPTED ANGEL
I found my angel. Then I broke her wings.
Alexis should’ve never set foot in my world.
It was for the best that I claimed her for a night and left her behind.
So imagine my surprise two years later when the door to my office opens, and she walks in.
I have just two questions for First—what is she doing here?
And second…
What does she mean, “our baby”?
CORRUPTED QUEEN
I made her my queen. Then she smashed her crown.
Alexis was nothing… until I made her my everything.
But just when I thought I could trust her, my tiger showed her true stripes.
She ran from me.
And took our infant son with her.
Some sins are unforgivable—and nobody takes what’s mine. I will find her. Reclaim her.
And then I will ensure that she can never leave me again.
CORRUPTED EMPIRE
We had a chance at paradise. Then I watched it all burn.
My empire is crumbling, because I made the same mistakes my father did. But it’s not just riches I’m losing.
It’s also the only chance I ever had at happiness.
My woman… Our son… They are the last things left that matter to me. I’ll sacrifice everything to save them.
My only question is… Will that be enough?
LIES HE TOLD ME
He filled my head with lies. Then he set my world on fire.
A chance meeting turns into a once-in-a-lifetime offer. The billionaire don needs a blank slate to turn into his perfect politician’s wife.
I’m homeless and desperate—what do I have to lose?
But Gavril is hiding secrets. Cloaked in lies. Stepping into his world is a one-way ticket to a hell I won’t survive.
Did I just sell my soul to a monster?
SCARS HE GAVE ME
Ten years ago, he tore my heart out.
Today’s my wedding day, and he’s come to claim the rest of me. Ten years ago, Tomas left me behind.
No answers. No explanation. Just gone without a trace.
But on the day of my wedding, here he is again.
I thought the scars he gave me a decade ago were painful.
But the look in his eyes says he’s only just begun.
SINS HE TAUGHT ME
He ripped me from my life and made me his.
Some sins can never be forgiven.
The billionaire mob boss has claimed me as collateral.
That means I’m his—until my father pays his debts.
But Matvei wants more than just me on my knees.
And when he drags me to his mansion, I see what the don is
An innocent child who needs my help.

A Wonderful Compilation Of Stories
Corrupted Angel [Belluci Trilogy] – BK 1
First book in this riveting series, cannot wait for next books in series
Alexis is a reporter and a writer always looking for that one story that will make her name however she has strong principals and hates to be pushed around, she works for a boss that doesn’t know the word no or cannot possibly speak with person concerned and she makes sure that Alexis is just another writer that can easily be replaced if she fails to produce the stories she wants.
Then that one night she had gone out for a drink and a dance at the local club, she had been simply having a drink and a dance when she realised her friend had left her with no cash and she couldn’t pay for her drink, the bartender was making sure she knew exactly what she thought of her and Alexis was not in the mood to simply take it, the over walked a tall, dark drink of water that had offered to help and then had entertained her on a far mor intimate level.
Imagine Alexis’s surprise when she discovers that the Gabrielle she has been told she must interview is in fact the Gabe she has not seen since that one fateful night at the nightclub, she had thought of him as Harry was a constant reminder and was her love and her joy she would do anything to keep him safe.
Gabrielle is absolutely stunned to realise that she is the woman from the club and when he discovers details about Harry and the fact that should the Walsh’s find out about him or her, they might try to harm them both, he makes an instant decision they must come and live within the safety of his home.
She is surprised to discover his professional job is far more crime related that she knew, he is the head of one of the largest Mafia families in the country and he is not afraid to do whatever it takes to keep it.
Corrupted Queen [Belluci Trilogy] – BK 2
The continuing story of Alexis and Daemon, filled with action and adventure
Alexis has finally been found and she is being returned to the clutches of her mafia boyfriend and father of her young son Harry and Daemon is not at all impressed with the treachery he believes she carried out when she had run from him.
Daemon has always known that Alexis was an excellent reporter and is not afraid to put herself out there to find worthwhile story and then to put it out in the public domain and at the moment she is very focused on discovering who it is that has been procuring and selling the drug to addicts.
As Alexis and Harry are building a family with Daemon and it is obvious that he is a good father and Harry loves his Dad and Alexis wants to ensure he has a safe and happy, loving homelife with parents that love him, something that both she Daemon have never known.
As the story continues to develop you cannot help but be drawn into the storyline and the characters are simply wonderful and as with all of Nicole Fox’s books once you begin reading it is simply impossible to put this book down once you start reading.
I cannot wait for the next book in this series, the story has been left with a wonderful opening for Alexis and Harry as they are still under Daemon’s control.
Corrupted Empire [Belluci Trilogy] – BK 3
The third and final book in this wonderful trilogy!!
Just when I thought that things could not possibly get any better this third book in trilogy just blows that thought right out the window. Alexis and Gabriel are still at loggerheads and since her supposed betrayal they have been living separately.
Pregnant with their second child Alexis has been raising Harry and continuing to be under constant threat from Gabriel’s enemies who at present are the Irish who are still determined to see them all at least buried three feet under with a bullet to the head.
Harry is still high on the Walsh’s target as he is next in line to Gabriel as his only son and heir and having already been kidnapped Alexis and Gabriel ensure that his security is covered at all times, he is such a happy and mischievous two-year-old little boy and he has been missing hi Daddy.
Without wanting to give away any surprises a blast from the past makes herself felt by Gabriel and Alexis and it soon becomes apparent that she is far more involved in both of their lives that they could ever have envisioned, she is cold and calculating an extremely clever and when the truth of her identity and her intention becomes known it is a totally unexpected and brilliantly planned storyline.
This is something that author Nicole Fox excels at wonderful characters and original, captivating storylines that keep you guessing right to that vey las word on the very final page in this wonderful trilogy.
Lies He Told Me [Bratva Crime Syndicate] [BK 1]
This was a simply captivating read filled with action, tension and great plot
This is another wonderful story by Nicole Fox who is simply wonderful at gathering a group of characters and a simply terrific read that will draw you into the life of the Bratva brotherhood and their lifestyle.
Gavril Vaknin had been trying to build his empire and now that he is also standing for mayor and things could have been going better and now that he needs to win, he has decided that he needs to find a wife and this will help him appeal to a far wider number of voters. However, on the day that he had been distributing out pizza to the homeless nothing could have prepared him for the vision of loveliness known as “Joy” that appeared before him.
As Gavril and Joy start attending functions and living as husband and wife it is apparent that they are doing far more that just pretending and Gavril knows that she is his and at every opportunity assures that she knows it.
As things are going well with the election the problems the Bratva are having with the Skull Kings who are at odds to create as much damage to their businesses as possible, men have been losing their lives and at time it has seemed as though they have someone passing on information, however the truth may be far more surprising.
This is a riveting read that will hold your attention from start to finish, there is plenty of surprises and the interaction between the two main characters Joy and Gavril is off the charts leaving you totally enamoured and unable to put this book down till you reach the very last page.
Scars He Gave Me [Bratva Crime Syndicate] [BK 2]
This is a wonderful continuation to this series
This is a continuation to the story nearly a decade in the future after he had already tore out her heart all those years ago and she had put herself back together and is about to embark on a new journey with the man she is about to marry until Tomas turns up with other ideas in mind and there is nothing she can do to change his mind.
He has tuned up to claim her and she is able to see that the man she knew has changed quite dramatically to who she remembered, he is now far harder and meaner and the last place she wants to be is with him.
She still wears the scars that he gave her all those years before and yet when she saw that gleam in his wye and the flick of tension in the corner of his mouth and she just knew that he was not done with her, not by a long shot.
Will she survive this next encounter or will she finally succumb and allow him to break her forever?
Sins He Taught Me [Bratva Crime Syndicate] [BK 3]
Matvei Morozov is a name that has haunted her family and she have no idea what to expect from the man that has haunted her family for years and now she knows that he has her and he is like a monster and she is living in the darkness.
Now the billionaire mob boss finally has the woman he wanted in his hand and there is absolutely nothing that she can do he has her where he wants her, she is going to pay the money her father owes by allowing him to claim her as she was the collateral.
When she finds herself dragged to the home of the Don she is determined that she is going to do whatever she could to escape, that was until she met the tiny innocent little boy he had living under the same roof and now she knows that she has to stay and help this beautiful, innocent child in any way she possibly can.
Who would have thought that when she had come into the house as a prisoner and had in fact found a child that needed love and care of two adults that could show him love and also ensure that he knows that he is loved, cared for and wanted and that he has a safe home?
I voluntarily received and review an Advanced Reader Copy
I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the great writing.

Belluci Mafia – The first 3 books in this boxset is about Gabriel and Alexis. Gabriel is the Don in the Belluci family. Alexis is a journalist for a small-time paper. Gabriel and Alexis meet at one of the family bars and end up having a one-night stand. Fast forward 2 years and they run into each other again when Alexis is sent to interview the elusive Gabriel Belluci. Things do not go so well and Alexis ends up having to figure out a way to get into another interview with Gabriel or she will lose her job. Once she gets in again, he dismisses her and she blurts out she has his child. Once he confirms she does in fact have his son, she is moved into his mansion where they start to form a family – or do they? Neither Gabriel or Alexis are good at communicating with one another about how they really feel. Neither one thinks the other really likes them and are just using them for their own agenda. This trilogy has everything in it – betrayal, tragedy, passion, chemistry, danger, suspense, drama, secrets, surprises, kidnappings, struggles, romance, deception, and learning how to trust.
Lies he Told Me – This is the first book in the Bratva Crime Syndicate. This is the story of Gavril and Joy. Gavril is the Don of the Vaknin Bratva who decides to run for Mayor. His ratings are down and his manager suggests he get a wife to show the city he is a “family” man. Joy is a 20 year old who ended up homeless after running away from bad situation at home. She lived in Tent City and went to a Pizza Event that Gavril was holding. When Gavril lays eyes on Joy, he feels some kind of connection – it doesn’t matter that she is in dirty clothes and looks homeless, he is attracted to her. Joy ends up in a struggle with another homeless woman and Gavril ends up breaking it up and sitting with Joy while she finishes her pizza. He offers her his card and money and tells her that if she ever needs anything, to call or come by – she will always be welcomed. She takes the card but leaves the money. She doesn’t want to owe anyone anything and wants to maintain her freedom. She ends up going to see him out of desperation and he offers her anything she wants to be his fake wife, of course she says no and leaves after she has a shower and some food. She finds out her mom is sick and decides that she will do anything for her mom to get better. She accepts Gavril’s offer. There is a lot of passion, chemistry, betrayal, drama, action, deception, romance, lies, deceit, tragedy and understanding.
Scars He Gave Me – This is the second book in the Bratva Crime Syndicate. This is the story of Tomas and Corrie. Tomas is the only son of the Don of the Dubrovsky Bratva. Corrie is a Tech geek who is about to get married to a boring man (according to her friend!). Tomas and Corrie high school sweethearts until the day he left after his mother dies. No explanation, no goodbye. The day the Corrie gets married, Tomas is in her room hiding in the closet waiting on someone to come in so he can “get rid of them” per his father. Somehow there was a mix-up of the room and Tomas has to stay in the closet when Corrie and her new husband Alvin walk in the room, Tomas hears her voice and knows it is her. 10 years have gone by since he last saw her, but he remembered her voice. When Alvin starts getting rough with Corrie and he can see in her eyes that she fears for her life, he comes out of the closet to her rescue. He beats Alvin up and two men break into the room and Tomas has to shoot them. He takes Corrie with him because he is not sure if she is in danger or not. Corrie is so mad at Tomas, but she still has feelings for him. Tomas takes Corrie so he can protect her and so he can claim her once again – they can’t keep their hands off each other. This story had me all emotional – I am a sucker for the high school sweetheart angle! There was drama, action, passion, betrayal, deception, tragedy, and love in this story.
Sins He Taught Me - Victoria is a planner, someone who is very OCD about things in her life and wants it to stay that way. She wants to go to law school and get away from the things holding her back (namely her father). While she loves her father, her is an alcoholic and tends to get into trouble and Victoria is always having to bail him out. She is a loving, caring person and regardless of the situation, she doesn’t want to see her dad hurt. Matvei is the leader of the Morozov organization. He is not known as a nice man and is your typical mafia leader. He threatens any and everyone and doesn’t think twice about it – he is definitely not a good man. When Matvei and Victoria are thrown together (of course Victoria is bailing her dad out once again!), you have to wonder if there will be a romance between the two – they do not like each other and do everything possible to avoid the other. The only thing bringing them together is Matvei’s nephew Nico. There is action, drama, tragedy, passion and romance in this story. It was enough to keep me up late into the night so I could finish the story. It does take some time to start liking Matvei’s character, but in the end, you do see he does care about family.
I love this author and I can’t wait to read more from her! Definitely recommend! I voluntarily reviewed this after receiving a free copy through Booksprout ARC’s for an honest review.

Nicole is the master of dark romances and this boxset is a winner!
CORRUPTED ANGEL - Corrupted Angel will leave you glued to your seat until you turn the last page!
Alexis is a reporter looking for a break into major news vs fluff pieces when she discovers her fiancé cheating on her. Her girlfriend takes her out to a club to forget the past and all is going well until her girlfriend leaves with a guy taking Alexis’ wallet and no means to pay for her drink. Gabriel is a crime boss, hanging out in his club when he discovers Alexis’ situation at the bar and steps in to help. Gabe takes Alexis back to the VIP section when things literally explode with their chemistry, until Gabriel acts like an entitled man and dismisses Alexis. Two years later, Alexis is tasked with interviewing Gabriel and discovering the father of her child who doesn’t even recognize her until Alexis slips about his being a parent. Gabriel’s territory is under attack, so demands Alexis and his child to stay with him where he can protect her. What follows is Gabriel discovering another side of himself that he can’t allow with a traitor in his house and Alexis breaking his trust. The consequences are suspenseful, the plot twists intense and this ends on a cliffhanger that will have you screaming, “Not now!” Thankfully the next book is due out soon, so I will be stalking it.
CORRUPTED QUEEN - A one sitting read as just too suspenseful to put down!

Two Great Series in One Easy To Read Grouping
by Rosemary McLain
Corrupted Angel - Just when I think Nicole Fox can't keep writing great Mafia Romance Series she surprises me with one like the Belluci Mafia trilogy. When Alexis meets "Gabe" all she could think about is how the handsome, domineering man gave her the best sex of her life and then dismissed her as if she meant nothing to him. What Gabriel "Gabe" never realized is that he gave her a son during that one brief interlude. Years later Alexis meets Gabriel and is surprised to learn he doesn't recognize her. Their story has so many ups and downs as well as deceit and distrust that you have no choice but to stay on the edge of your seat and hand on for the ride of your life. Since this is a trilogy, there is obviously a cliffhanger but I was still caught off guard. Great series and I can't wait to see what happens in Corrupted Queen.
Corrupted Queen - Book 2 and the twists and turns continue to have me biting my nails and wanting to read faster and faster to find out what is going to happen to the story of Alexis, Gabriel and Henry. So much heartbreak, mistrust and will Alexis every find out the truth. Great book and I can counting the minutes until Book 3 and I can find out whether they get their HEA because so far, things are looking dicey.
Corrupted Empire - What a wonderful, "on the edge of your seat" storyline and I hate that this is the final book in the Belluci Series. I loved the characters and interaction between Alexis and Gabriel and their little son Henry was a joy to read about. I can't wait to see what Ms. Fox comes up with next!
Lies He Told Me - A great start to a wonderful new Bratva series from the queen of Mafia books, Nicole Fox but fear not, there isn't a cliffhanger to tie you up waiting for the next book. When Gavril finds the stronghold he has on the city of Toronto slipping, he realizes that becoming Mayor would be one way to boost his power since the current Mayor has some kind of deal with the Skull Kings. His "playboy" ways are apparently hurting him in the polls so the logical solution is to find a fake wife who the public would fall in love with. When he meets Joy at a publicity stunt where he is providing free pizza to the some of the homeless community, he realizes that she is the one. When the lines between a fake and a real connection begin to blur, he realizes that she is more than just the one who will help him secure the Mayoral win things get complicated. There are some clues at the end about who will be the focus of the next book in the Bratva Crime Syndicate Series and I can't wait to get my hands on it and start reading.
Scars He Gave Me - When I pick up a Nicole Fox book I always know that the story and the characters will be wonderful and actually believable. In Scars He Gave Me the characters of Tommy (Tomas) and Corrie (Corrinne) were perfect for this story as both of them ended up with scars in the years after Tommy walked out of Corrie's life. There are definitely some surprises such as Corrie's wedding night which was the catalyst for all the good and bad that happens to the couple afterwards. A great and very surprising story that kept me invested from the first word.
Sins He Taught Me - A new twist to the single dad who falls for the "nanny" with the added spark of hot sex, danger, twists, mysteries some tears and a wonderful HEA ending. Another great book by Nicole Fox and a fitting end to the Bratva Crime Syndicate series.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Six complete mafia romantic suspense novels, two dark mafia series, let these savage dons corrupt you, and corrupt you they will.
Gabriel and Alexis, Gavril and Joy, Tomas, and Corinne, Matvei and Victoria, six stories, four couples, eight different characters, four men laying claim to their women, women who do not belong in their world, women they will corrupt, mold and bend to their will, women they will have on their knees, unless it is the women that will have their men on their knees.
Each book is filled with strong characters, intriguing storylines and a dark and twisted story that held me captive from the first page of book one until the last page of book six.
Their stories were raw and sensual, as they were powerful and confronting. Even though they all had issues they needed to work through, their love for each other heartbreakingly beautiful. It was fast paced and thrilling, it made my heart race and soar to unfathomable heights. The need to see their growing attraction, the dominance and possessiveness, darkness and depravity, the lust and fear, to own, retaliate, to take control, God it was hot.
These characters will impact you in unusual ways, there will be moments that will make you laugh and cry but have you thinking what the f***, but its these pivotal moments that expose the perplexing tangle of hurt, anger and denial, powerful in themselves, the secrets, lies, deception, manipulation, pain, motives, and truths which becomes all the clearer with those deep revelations.
I was hooked from the very first chapter right up until the last. The different point of views told a telling story of heartbreak, love, and loss, of their past connecting with their present. The author knows how to write, to ensnare her readers to ensure they will come back for more, me I will come back for more.
It holds so much drama, action, mystery, adrenaline seeking suspense, slow burning passion, betrayal, blackmail, dark romance, intrigue, revenge, violence, vengeance, friendship, lust, loyalty, trust. It will hook you, have you turning the pages to find out more, the dark themes and triggers were gut wrenching and soul destroying yet were defining pivotal moments that made these characters all the stronger testing any reader, reading this story, it enables the readers to really connect with the characters.
And those s*x scenes in and out of the bedroom were f*****g erotic, daring, the explicit language and dirty talk was filthy, downright wicked, sensually dirty, twisted, forbidden, taboo, emotional, wrong, intense, obsessive, daring, explosive, wrong, physical, provocative, possessive, controlling, oh so steamy, deliciously wicked, dirty, hot, beautiful, dark, naughty, raw, rough, powerful, passionate, wet, dominating, and wild, and there happily ever after's couldn’t have been said any better if I had written it myself.

This is a six book series with two different mafia series. The first three books are about Alexis and Gabriel. The last three books each have a different couple meeting in different ways. I will be reviewing the first book. Alexis is a reporter and she has just found out her fiance has been cheating on her. She goes out with her friend and has a one night stand with a really hot guy. Two years later, she meets him again, however, she finds out he is Gabriel Belluci. A powerful billionaire and she has a secret. She had his son, but doesn't think that he wants anything to do with a family. Gabriel is actually the Don of the Belluci Mafia family and he doesn't want to get attached to his infant son and his mother. He is forced to keep her with him as a rival tries to kidnap his son. Alexis wants to find out more about Gabriel and make a huge story, but at what cost? The characters are interesting and I feel that the character that grows the most is Gabriel. Alexis still has a lot of growing to do, which will happen in the next couple of books. The story is well written and I am sure that each one is great. This series will give me a few days read time and I am excited to go all in.

The addition starts with the book cover….yeah…yeah…yeah don’t judge a book by its cover they say ….well we all do it and this one here it is the scratch to your itch or better yet the filling to your oreos! Speaking of filling…..wait, that’s for later. Within the first chapters you get the panoramic view of whom you’re dealing with!
Bad boy….check
Bod boy’s crazy brother/friend…check
Bad boy’s Kryptonie…check ….check and check
By the time you’ve figured out who is who and how deep hate can run, you’re already hooked, and you may as well give up the fight and prepare yourself for an all-nighter!
Can’t say I didn’t warn you.
It’s edgy yet always within boundaries of morality. It’s compelling, like Nutella, bacon and oreo cookies had a threesome and this story is their lovechild. Okay six fantastic standalone books. The Mafia Alphas and the queens that bring them to their knees. Keeping you wondering where they are off to next, who will they corrupt next so I suggest you get a nice warm blanket and a cup of your favorite coffee/hot chocolate because once you start you won’t stop until the last page of the last book has been read.

I love anything Nicole Fox writes because she write a lot of dark Mafia romances and that is my favorite genre. The first half of this box set are centered around the Belluci mafia family. Alexis and Gabriel are the main characters and they are so different it does not seem like their relationship should not work, but it really does. The second half is a Bratva crime syndicate universe trilogy. The first book Joy and Gavril's relationship beginning is unusual to say the least. But their fake relationship is more real than they anticipated it to be. The second book Corrine and Tomas have a history going all the way back to high school. And when they come into contact with each other again all hell breaks loose. The third book, Matvie is on the war path of revenge and he also needs someone to look after his nephew. Victoria is not part of Matvie's revenge plot, but she is in his path and becomes an integral part of Matvie's life. All of these books individually are a great read, together they are even better.

Belluci Mafia series + Bratva Crime Syndicate series = The Mafia Dons Collection
Well all I can say is that if you love dark mafia romances with some over the top Alpha anit-hero's then this is a set you will like. The box set contains the 6 books from two different series, Belluci Mafia series and Bratva Crime Syndicate series..
Corrupted Angel (Belluci Mafia Book 1)
Corrupted Queen (Belluci Mafia Book 2)
Corrupted Empire (Belluci Mafia Book 3)
Lies He Told Me (Bratva Crime Syndicate Book 1)
Scars He Gave Me (Bratva Crime Syndicate Book 2)
Sins He Taught Me (Bratva Crime Syndicate Book 3)
The Belluci Mafia series is the story of Gabriel and Alexis. which continues with each of the three books. The Bratva Crime Syndicate books are each about a different couple and a different situation. For me I liked the Bratva Crime Syndicate books better as I found the stories more dark and intense. There were things that were not what they appeared which added to the enjoyment of the stories for me.
I had already read each of these books previously but to have them all in one box set is a great way to add them to your collection.

Terrific - if you like mafia reads this is a terrific boxset. I’ve looked at the glowing reviews and many, if not most, have given longggg pages outlining each,book, so I’m going to save my arthritic hands today and just say this is a fantastic box set. The set includes 6 books from two different series, the Belluci Mafia sand Bratva Crime Syndicate series. Hopefully, the author will continue ur these boxset and I recommend the another’s as well. The first 3 books represent the Belluci Mafia in Corrupted Angel, Corrupted Queen and Corrupted Empire. The next 3 books represent the Bratva Crime Series i. Lies He Told Me, Scars He Gave Me and Sins He Taught Me. The first 3 books about the Bulluci’s follows Gabriel and Alexis and the next 3 about the Bratva’s follow a different couple in each book. The Bratva has always been my fav out of the two but both are intense and dark as you’d expect. I had already purchased each of these books previously but it’s nice to have the boxset too and economical if you haven’t read them yet.

If you like Dark Mafia Romances, this is the boxed set for you.
The featured trilogy with mafia boss Gabriel and strong and snarky Alexis had everything I wanted in this genre. Good solid storyline woven with passion, depth, romance and drama.
Gabriel’s stubbornness matched his role as he battled the Cartel for control of his city. Filled with intrigue, betrayal, twists and turns as he denied his feelings for Alexis and her betrayal. Kudos to the author in creating a strong and worthy female heroine in Alexis who never gave up and continued to make the best of her situation.
Never the victim and always willing to fight for her family and her love for Gabriel.
I hate cliffys so this boxed set was such a treat! Full of action, brutal mafia gore, intrigue, passion, loyalty, betrayal, revenge, and all the while, the love story between Gabriel and Alexis simmered and blossomed.
There are tons of Mafia Romance Serials out there, but this one truly tops the list! A keeper for so many reasons.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this boxed set!

Two separate box sets are encompassed within this collection. The first series is the Belluci Mafia Trilogy and it's the ongoing stories about the same characters, Alexis and Gabriel. Being able to read all three one right after the other was great. If I had to wait between books, especially with the cliff hangers at the end, i would have been crazed. This couple went on an evolution were definitely different beings than they were in the first book. Throughout the stories, no matter how much they were together or apart (physically or just emotionally) they were wildly attracted to one another. I was quite pleased Alexis grew into her own and Gabriel thawed from the icy emotional robot he was. 4 Stars
The second series was the Bratva Crime Syndicate. Each story was a separate couple. I really didn't warm to any of the three couples. The mafia component was odd and not all that dark as advertised. Maybe because I liked the first series so much I wasn't enrolled with the second at all. 3 Stars

This series brings us 6 mafia romantic suspense novels, "Corrupted Angel," "Corrupted Queen," "Corrupted Empire," "Lies He Told Me," "Scars He Gave Me," and "Sins He Taught Me." These books are also part of the Belluci Mafia Bratva Trilogy, and the Bratva Crime Syndicate Trilogy. You can't go wrong with hese 6 books. In the Belluci Mafia Trilogy, the main characters are Alexis and Gabriel. There is so much hurt, jealousy, untold feelings that happen but the ending is spectacular. This is a great trilogy. The second trilogy, Bratva Crime Syndicate brings us Gavril and Joy. Gavril makes a deal with Joy to become his "fake" wife. Great Ending. "Scars He Told Me" features Tomas and Corinne. This is a second chance love story - and oh so good. "Sins He Taught Me", is a heartbreaking story where Matvel and Victoria. I think this story was my favorite. I highly recommend this set of 6 books. I did receive an arc for an honest review.

Whenever I see a dark mafia book by Nicole Fox, I get it without even reading the blurb. The books in a series are related to each other but can be read as stand alones. I would recommend reading them in order because then you will recognize family members you read about in earlier books.
I love these family related series because each of the siblings has their unique role and that changes the mood of each. Some like to fight, others want to be the leader, and some even want to concentrate on legitimate businesses instead of crime, but no matter what, you get the interaction of the close family members, how they view their women and children, and how the soldiers of their organization fit in and show their loyalty.
Be ready for lots of attitude and steam from both members of the couple.

This collection if of two series The Bratva Crime Syndicate with three books, Lies He Told Me, Scares He Gave Me, and Sins He Taught Me. I have reviewed those three books already, but let me tell you they were great Bratva stories, hot, gritty, steamy, and action packed. The other series is The Belluci Mafia and those books are Corrupted Angel, Corrupted Queen, and Corrupted Empire. Those books are about Gabriel and Alexis how he found her and then she comes back with child and how he went after her, and would risk everything for her and his son. The characters are all wonderful the stories at times are intense and full of action, twists and turns, betrayal and all the good stuff that Mafia/Bratva books should be.

I have read all of these stories separately prior to this collection. The fact that I enjoyed them as much the 2nd time around should show that they are well worth the read. The first stories follow the relationship of Alexis and Gabriel Belluci which was never likely to run a smooth course(mafia Don and an aspiring journalist)
The other stories follow relationships between Joy and Gavril(Lies he told me,) and Tomas and Corinne (Scars he gave me) and Matvei and Victoria (Sins he taught me)
The one thing all of these books have in common is that the stories are gripping and keep you immersed from start to end. A 5 star read is well worth your time.

If you love dark Mafia then get this box set!! You get two of Nicole Fox's amazing trilogies. I'm a huge fan of box sets, no waiting around for the next book to be released. You can just binge right through. You can't go wrong with any of Nicole Fox's books and these two trilogies are a prime example of how amazing her work is. Nicole is one of the best authors at writing the anti-hero who you love to hate but you fall in love with anyway! All the characters are amazing and you get so immersed in their world that you don't want to leave.
Stop thinking about it and buy this set, you will love it!!

This is a fabulous boxset of Bratva and Mafia families. The first is the Bellucci Mafia trilogy, action packed, dramatic, dark , gritty with amazing characters and a riveting story line. The second, Bratva Crime syndicate trilogy is witty, entertaining, emotionally charged with complex characters that brings the story to life with their drama, chemistry. Both trilogies are action packed and will grab your attention from the first page to the last. There is suspense, drama, and enough twist and turns that will have you head spinning and your heart pounding! I volunteered to review this story.

The Don's & their Queens 👸 😍 ❤
Nicole Fox has put the to-die-for stories in one boxset and it's Ah-Mazing! I've read the first three via Kindle Unlimited and have left my positive reviews on them 👏👍😉 The others I got an Advance Reading Copy and am leaving my review voluntarily. These stories are good! They have drama, suspense, hot/steamy love scenes, anti-heroes, and most of all love. Yes, there's push and pull from each couple, but eventually love/family overcomes it all. This set is worth the buy! Enjoy yourselves ❤ On to the next! #HappyReading 💖

What a great collection from one of my favorite authors, Nicole Fox. Even though there are six books three are The Bellucci Mafia Family Trilogy and three books are The Bratva Crime Syndicate Trilogy. They are dark, brutal, acton packed, drama driven, and heavy on the steam. The characters are well written, compelling, and the chemistry is off the hook. I loved all six books separately but you can read them all either for Free with KU or less than the cost of lunch. You will love them!
