"The woman in the window looks like she’d only smile if she were slitting your throat."

Geissinger has crafted a gripping tale that will draw you into a dark and alluring world where the boundaries between love and hate, loyalty and betrayal merge unexpectedly. Brutal Vows is the tumultuous love story between an Irish mobster with a brutal agenda and an Italian mafia princess harboring a shadowy past. Their forced union sets the stage for a star-crossed love with multiple twists and turns.
“Viper. My lovely, lethal wife. You’re fucking perfect, inside and out."
Spider, an Irish Mobster, is set to marry an 18-year-old Italian princess, Lilianna, to establish a strong alliance. However, he was not expecting Reyna Caruso. Reyna and Spider have an immediate electric connection, and although she's a widow with a mysterious past, somehow, these two cannot stay away from each other!
"Because I’m responsible for you now. And if something happens to you, it will be the end of me.”
J.T. Geissinger excels at crafting characters as complex as they are captivating.

The dynamic between them is electric, marked by scenes of raw emotion, sharp wit, and a palpable tension that keeps the pages turning.
"She’s everything I’ve ever wanted and so much more than I could ever deserve, and I know without doubt that I will love this woman until my last breath. I’ll love her until the earth stops spinning and the sun flames out and all the stars fall from the sky. I’ll love her forever. My wife. My viper. My warrior. My queen."
Overall, Brutal Vows is a must-read for anyone with an appetite for a mafia romance that defies convention.

“Every single creature runs from me—except you.”
Death by Laura Thalassa is the fourth and final book in the Four Horsemen Series, and it truly brought the entire series together with a dynamic end that will stay with me forever. Thalassa masterfully weaves a conclusion that elevates the series, delivering a blend of intense emotion, thrilling action, and passion.
“Life and death are lovers, kismet,” he whispers, shifting my hips to align us. “We are lovers. It has always been this way. It will always be this way.”
Death is the most brutal and hard-hearted of the Horsemen compared to his brothers. He has one goal: to eradicate humanity to end sin once and for all. However, he never anticipated encountering Lazarus, a unique woman who cannot die. When she pursues Death, a twisted game begins. As the two grow closer, an unlikely attraction begins to take life. Despite this, Death knows that ultimately, he cannot fail. He cannot allow Lazarus to stop him from completing his task, even if it means losing everything.
“So lay back, kismet, and let me show you what it means to be mine.”
Told in dual POV, Death and Lazarus share a bond like no other. In addition to these beautiful characters, Thalassa masterfully weaves all of the characters from the series which allows closure for this series uniquely and remarkably!
“I’ve got you, Lazarus, my Lazarus,” Thanatos murmurs.”
Overall,Death and the entire Four Horsemen series is a must-read for anyone who enjoys a dystopian romance full of passion, complex characters, and lyrical writing. Thalassa's storytelling prowess shines through, making this series a must-read for fans of the genre. I look forward to reading more from this author!
