About this audiobook

I used to be a mafia prince. Now I'm marked as prey.

Someone is systematically eliminating my Family bloodline, and I'm the last heir standing.


No money.

No allies.

No way out…except one.


An underground auction where the wealthy and the wicked bid on desperate, untouched men like me.


I expect to be sold to a stranger. Used and discarded.


Instead, I'm bought by a man with a two-decades-long vendetta against my dead father. A beast who drops ten million dollars to own me, then drags me home to a prison he built just for me.


He wants vengeance. He wants to break me. But I'm not as easy to break as he expects.

And when danger follows me into his territory, he becomes something I never expected.


A protector.

A possessor.

He keeps me safe, even while he keeps me caged.


I’m starting to think the most dangerous thing isn’t being owned by him.


It’s wanting him to keep me...



The Beast Who Bought Me is book 1 of an ongoing-couple trilogy and ends on a cliffhanger. Expect dark dealings, obsession, possessiveness, toxic dynamics, and all the red flags. These antiheroes will earn their happily ever after, but they'll fight hard to get there.

Dark, tense, and brought to life by the talented Michael Ferraiuolo. I went in knowing this would be a rough journey, as it’s the first book of a trilogy. The characters are complicated and broken. The plot is building, and I’m already on edge about who can and can’t be trusted. The romance, still in development, is heating up. That cliffhanger (with the extra twist!) hurt and is going to live rent-free in my head. I’m hooked, and anxious for what’s coming next.

After reading the ebook, I had to do the audio and that did it for me. This one has a slow burn but answers a lot of questions when it comes to the Clemenzas. Damino only wants Caligula Clemenza to satisfy need for revenge. Caligula just wants to survive the forces coming for him and be protected. There is a lot of back and force when it comes to trust between Damiano and Caligula. I see many unknowns and I hope to get answers in the next book. The cliffhanger has me on edge.

I had read the book and loved it, and I loved the audio, the narration is great. Regarding the story, both MC are smart, manipulative, stubborn, fierce, but one has to submit to the other, within a high chemistry atmosphere. This book is dark, exciting, angsty and a great start to a new trilogy that will follows the same couple and ends in a massive cliffhanger! I can't wait for next book.
