Bennett Crime World #2
Show No Mercy
Marco, an enforcer for the brutal Bennett Brothers, couldn’t stop thinking about her. The woman whose life almost ended that night, and would have, if he hadn’t stepped in, and brought her back from the brink. He wasn’t working for the good guys, nor did he claim to be one himself, but he needed to be the one to nurture her, to empower her, and own her. Because he knew that she needed his strength, and his control, to help her regain her own.
Lenore prided herself on being tough, and knowing how to defend herself, but she almost gave up that night. The night her best friend tried to rape her. The night she was forced to end a life. It nearly destroyed her. The stranger who picked up the pieces, the man she stupidly pushed away, before she became dependent on him… he just refused to stay away. When he came back, it soon became clear that the only way he’d leave again, is if he takes her with him.
Drawn deeper into the twisted world of violence, and danger, and mobsters, will Lenore be able to find her strength again, and if she does, will she be willing to put it use, working for the very people who brought her world crashing down around her?
Will Marco manage to take command of Lenore, and bend her to his will, showing her that being owned by him is the best way to be herself again? And, will she be ready for the darkness inside him, and what happens when he gets pushed to the very limit of his control?
Beyond that, when they’re suddenly all under threat, from an unknown enemy, who will survive the deadly showdown?
This is a dark romance story, featuring content which may not suit all readers, or may be triggering. It is a standalone book, with HEA, and the characters will appear again in a future book, but will not be the focus of that book.
Please also see: At Their Mercy, by Mia Fury, for an introduction to the Bennett world...

After meeting Lenore and Marco in At Their Mercy, I’m so glad we’re getting their story.
Marco, an enforcer for the Bennetts, is trying to be there for Lenore and care for her after the events that unfolded and he has such a protective side.
Lenore has been through a lot of pain and trauma, but it was so good seeing her find her strength again and show how much of a bad*ss she really is.
Marco is the perfect amount of hot, demanding and loving. Plus his mouth..!
The spicy scenes as always were superb.
We get more of the Bennett brothers too which is always a bonus. I love how they look after their family and what that means to them.
I’m really enjoying this world and can’t wait for what’s next.

I was already a big fan of this author after reading At Their Mercy so there's no surprise that I loved Show No Mercy as well. Marco was such a perfect mix of hot (🥵🔥) and protective while still supporting and empowering Lenore to be the strong woman she truly is. Yes, she's been through a lot, and some of if really broke her, but it doesn't mean she can't piece herself back together and come back even stronger. Marco is definitely a dominant Alpha but in a way that gives Lenore exactly what she needs. Loved watching these two fall for each other.
Great story with characters you'll love, and of course extra time with the Bennetts 😍🥵😍
As always, heed the trigger warnings

Polo!!!
Marco and Lenore are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Wow. Talk about scorched earth! The second book of the Bennett Crime world ties up so many lines from the first book while still distinguishing itself as another literally masterpiece. I'm so excited for the new characters we've met and the power play between Marco and Lenore was a entertaining as it was hawt.
Thank to Mia for another gripping read!!
And Marco- I'll brat for you any day!

LOVED MARCO
This was such a great story. The author is awesome at spinning a fast paced, interesting tale— and I love all the characters! I can’t wait for the next book set in this world. (Beyond the awesome Christmas one!)

I loved this book... It’s dark, it’s
naughty, it’s mysterious, it even has some laughs. You get the whole spectrum with this crime tale.
And Marco Cardini makes my heart go pitter pat. He’s dominant, he’s possessive, he’s dangerous, he’s even a little scary. But he’s also sweet, gentle, and caring.
He’s the perfect yin to Lenore’s yang... She, who is dealing with a shattered past, must lean on him for strength while
finding her own way back to home state.
Mia Fury knocks it out of the park with this twisted crime tale where we see the return of the Bennett brothers and even Cass from her book, At Their Mercy. If you have no triggers, read it!

Marco and Lenore's story in the Bennett series... and a glorious story at that. We still get all the tantalizing fun of the Bennett brothers and cameos from other fun members of their organization but this is focused on Lenore's journey. Marco is caught up in it and its beautiful and gritty. The author handles the emotional and psychological aspects of things SO well. It makes these books amazing, with gripping stories and characters that still have all the humor, excitement and steam we love in a good dark romance!

This book was a ball of emotions and I was here for it. I was really hoping my girl would be okay in the end! I loved the story line and how it tied into the first book. Please read the warnings before jumping in for your safety. Amazing book and very well written.
