About this listen
CATALINA: My plans to run from my cruel father and the mafia are destroyed when I am forced to marry the don my sister left standing at the altar. When my sister disappears the morning of her wedding, I’m left in her wedding dress, standing in front of the priest. With him. The man whose touch sets me on fire. The man I thought I could never have.
SEVERU: For the stability of la famiglia, I need to marry. I don’t want a wife that will disrupt my life, but I crave this woman. Once her sister runs, nothing will stop me from having her. She’ll marry me to protect her sister, but nothing is going to protect her from me.
AUTHOR NOTE: This is a standalone steamy mafia romance with a guaranteed HEA. No cliffhangers. No cheating. CW: explicit intimacy, graphic violence, foul language and domestic violence (past reference and on the page – not between the main characters)

When the creditors come to collect, I'm handed over to the most ruthless man in New York City—Luca Valentino. The head of the notorious Kings is as gorgeous as he is lethal. Dark, possessive, and violent. Nothing like the boy I grew up with, my dead brother's best friend.

When Elsie broke into my home, I saw an opportunity, so I forced her into a marriage she didn't want. No one crosses me, not even someone as beautiful as Elsie. She may fight me with that smart mouth, but she will obey me–or return to the hell she came from.

Story
Running away from home at 17 wasn't easy. Let's face it, though, nothing before or in the ten years since has ever been easy for me. And I'm doing okay—sorta. I just need to keep scraping by, living under the radar. Staying out of people's way, off people's minds. When a man walks through my open patio door, stepping boldly into my home and my life, I should be scared, frightened, terrified. I must be more broken than I realized because I'm none of those things. I'm intrigued—and I'm wondering if the way to take control of my life is by giving in to him.

The roots of my ancestral, billionaire-dollar winery stretch deep into the rich Italian soil, as does our legacy of ruthlessness and scandal. It isn't the fact she is half my age that makes her off-limits. Nothing is off-limits for me. A wounded bird caught in a trap not of her own making, she poses no risk to me. My obsessive desire to possess her is the real problem—for both of us.

Monsters don't hide in dark alleys. They lurk in plain sight, clawing into your soul with cordial smiles. They wear Armani, they drive Cadillacs, they attend fundraising balls... And they rule the city with a merciless fist. The Familia is a mystery to most, and sitting on its throne is Kage Malvagio. Vile. Sadistic. Painstakingly beautiful. Some say: Ask for forgiveness, never permission. Kage asks for neither—especially when he gets his hands on me. I should hate him. I should run at the first chance I get. But how could the devil be so bad when he looks at me like that?

Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears.

Arrogant bosshole with some dirty secrets. Sounds tempting, right? Wrong. Kirill Zaitsev is anything but tempting. Sure, he’s tall and broad and muscular in all the right places. And sure, he’s richer than several small countries. And yes, fine, his eyes do make me feel loopy, and he does smell like mint and musk, and there’s also the way his jaw clenches when he… Sorry, where was I? Oh yeah. Bosshole. Dirty secrets. Anyway, all those things sound fine and dandy. For a little while, I thought so, too. Then I learned who Kirill really is—a killer, a tycoon, a mafia don.

My adoptive parents came over to my apartment for dinner, just like they do every week. But this time, they brought bombshells. They tell me I'm not who they said I was. And all those dance lessons, those etiquette classes? They weren't just for show. They were to groom me. To mold me into what I'm about to become—the forced wife of a don. Then, with my jaw on the floor, they opened the door and let the nightmares in.

A wonderful mafia story!
Okay, to start I was a little wary of this audiobook as I’ve already read the book and loved it loads but I also know that the story is told from two POVs. However, only one narrator is listed and one unknown to me at that. Needless to say this was my first listen from narrator Amy Deuchler. It took some getting used to but I did warm up to her style of narration. Her pacing was a little slow for me but I can speed it up some so that was not a big deal. Otherwise I thought she did well with all the different characters. Her voices were distinct enough for each character and that made it easy to follow the story.
The story:
I love this story! I’ve been a long time fan of Lucy Monroe and I’m so glad she’s writing mafia stories now too. The dialogue between her characters are always fun to read. She’s able to convey so much emotions - love, hate, disappointment, etc. just from these dialogues. Here we have the mafia don, Severu and Catalina, who ended up married to each other due to a turn of events not of their making. However, as it turns out, it’s not an unwanted marriage for either party. Severu is powerful and a very decisive man. He’s brutal and in his own way quite romantic. Catalina has a strong personality and super smart and that makes her a great complement to Severu. The sexy times between these two are HOT AF and their conversations are fun to read. Also, a lot of the side characters, especially Severu’s family are all likable and I’m glad they’re not the typical scheming and hateful family members that are so present in a lot of other stories.

Mafia romance
I received this Audiobook as an ARC. I deeply appreciate the author sending this audiobook. This is a Mafia Romance book, which is up my alley , because I love mafia romance books. I enjoyed this book a lot. The plot was really good. I felt the connection with the FMC throughout the book. The way she felt, I felt which had my emotions all over the place. Please don’t miss out on this book, it’s totally worth it. Now the narration was good but I did catch two errors but they where small not really noticeable so it’s wasn’t such a big deal. The narrator voice is beautiful and her male voice is spectacular. I was mind blown on how good she did the male voice. I definitely recommend this audiobook though, the story is so delicious.

Wow wow wow
An amazing spectacular story. Catalina and Severa discover their day is not going as they expected. Catalina finds herself once again her father’s punching bag and now the unexpected bride to wed her sister, Carlotta’s fiancé, Severa. Severa, the mafia Don finds himself getting married to his fiancé’s sister, Catalina. Carlotta ran off and left Catalina to face the music. The chemistry between Catalina and Severa is off the charts. Catalina has very poor self esteem and wants to believe that Severa wants her for her and not just for a sexual release. Watching their relationship grow and Catalina come into her own as both a confident beautiful woman and the mafia queen is inspiring. It’s also thrilling to see how much Catalina’s intelligence and insightfulness is recognized by Severa and his brother. It’s so easy to become obsessed with this book and stay up all night to finish it!!!!

I loved this book!
When Catalina's sister runs off right before she is supposed to marry a Mafia Don, Catalina is forced by her father to take her sister's place. Little does she know that her new husband, Severu, is attracted to her more than he ever was her sister.
This book hits a lot of the typical beats of an arranged-mafia-marriage, and I am absolutely not mad about that. Catalina is a sympathetic protagonist, and Severu is a great compliment to her. They are both strong in their own ways, while also needing the other in ways they are not even aware of. It is wonderful to watch them get to know each other in such tumultuous circumstances. I am glad they got their happy ending. (And, without spoiling the climactic twist, I will say that I cried while reading the ebook months ago, and I cried harder while listening to the audiobook. )
Amy Deuchler did a wonderful job with the narration. I often forgot that there was only one narrator because she voiced each character so uniquely.

Ahhh! Well done!
As I told Ms Monroe, I am very new to audiobooks and wasn’t sure how I’d like it with one narrator. However, I loved it! I think it was super well done and I loooooove this series.
I love the push and pull between Catalina and Severu.
I do hope Miceli will get his own story about his arranged marriage.

Lucy Monroe does it again!
I love a good Mafia book, and this did not disappoint. Catalina is a smart, strong but introvert woman who flourished when she married Severu, and he is the possessive, arrogant Don that complements her. Their chemistry is instantaneous and very hot. Such a great Audiobook, narrator did amazing as she totally pulled you in the story.

Great Read
This was my first time listening to this author. I really enjoyed this audiobook performed well by Amy Deuchler. I love strong female leads and Catalina is definitely tough, independent and intelligent. She possesses the qualities needed for a Don's wife. It would be great to have duet or dual narrators for these books.

.... a can't put down rollercoaster ride.
A page turner that trills, chills and tempts. Between the never-ending twists and the heartbreaking turns, Urgent Vows is a can't put down rollercoaster ride.
