Single Malt Drama
Bourbon Street Bad Boys' Club, Book 3
By: Kathryn M. Hearst
Narrated by: Aaron Shedlock, Charlotte Claremont

How far would you go to not go along with an arranged marriage? Nicolina has been slated to marry Enzo, joining the two mafia families and strengthening their power. Neither wants to go along with it, but something has to be done. Playing the bratty fashionista does not seem to be deterring her father's plan But running away with the help of her best friend Marco, Enzo's brother may be the answer. He proposes a marriage in name only to stop the madness. But neither realizes the feelings they actually have for each other. Will the sham of a marriage work? Will the families be happy? Deceit, lies, passion, escape, danger and love all play into this funny light mafia! While it can be listened to as a standalone, it's best to get the family history and start with book 1! I am loving this series, it has me laughing out loud and falling in love, the best feelings you can have!

It does not hurt to have Aaron Shedlock and Charlotte Claremont read me this story either! This talented team delivers a fantastic performance. Aaron has the Marchionni men, each with their own voice. I love his portrayal of Marco. He has a sincerity in his voice that is undeniable, and his determination to keep what is his is unmistakable. Claremont breathes life into our princessa, with a light bratty texture, but quickly morphs into the true gem that is Nico. It's a fabulous listen and must not be missed!

Marco and Nico have been friends since they were young they just hadn't want to admit that they felt more than friendship for each other. Nico is supposed to marry Enzo, who is in love with Shanna, so Marco suggests she marry him instead. However, going against the family when the family is Mafia is not going to end well. Secrets are unearthed and lives are changed in this thrilling addition to the Bourbon Street Bad Boys Club series. The characters are great and I can't wait to see what happens next.

I enjoyed the journey of Marco and Nico. Love this series as Aaron and Charlotte brought the story alive from the first page until the end. It was a fun roller coaster ride. I love how we learn more about the other family members.

 I cut through this series and reading book number 3. I think I should read the first book. Because I am not really connecting with the whole mafia drama. I do not like Marco. He is stiff and good two shoes lawyer. His control over his feeling toward Nico is annoying sometimes. Oh and he seems too naive too. 

Nico is much smarter. She understands more about the mafia drama. Sadly I am clueless. The writing is easy to follow. 
At the end I just give this book middle star.

This is a captivating read that is well written and descriptive. This has a great flow and pace to the story and plot. I liked this fake relationship romance that is suspenseful and has great humor. Marco and Nicolina have great chemistry and a very interesting story.

I am voluntarily leaving a honest, unbiased review.
