They were mafia, and Brooke\u2019s oldest brother was dead. Her father said accident, but Brooke said murder.<\/p>\n<p>Three months later, her father died, and Kai became the head of the Bennett Family. Brooke left Hillcrest for good, and that was the last time I saw her.<\/p>\n<p>Fourteen years later, I\u2019m staring at her face on the television.

This audio was good. I enjoyed listening to this story.\u00a0 The narrator did a good job keeping me engaged in the story. There was twist, turns and unpredictable thing in this one that had me wanting more.<\/p>\n<p>Riley knew how to hold her own she is a strong character. Riley became friends with Brooke Bennett when she was placed as her roommate in school.\u00a0 After years later Brooke came up missing and Riley found herself being kidnapped by the Bennett family. All because Kai wanted Riley to help find his sister.<\/p>\n<p>Kai Bennett is the head of the Bennett Mafia family. He will do what ever he has to do to protect his family. Kai took Riley when his sister ran off thinking she had assisted in his sister\u2019s disappearance. Kai\u2019s family may not have known his plan and why he did things but he loved them and would do anything to protect them. Riley has to figure out if she can handle being in the Bennett Mafia family.<\/p>\n<p>I had no idea where this story was headed the twist and turns had me all over the place. I enjoyed the tension and attraction between Kai and Riley. I enjoyed this book and would love to get more of this family.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25376 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-%20_content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor-300x100.jpg?resize=300%2C100\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=300%2C100 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=768%2C256 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?w=900 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"a-expander-content a-expander-partial-collapse-content a-expander-content-expanded\" aria-expanded=\"true\">\n<p>Tijan is a New York Times Bestselling author that writes suspenseful and unpredictable novels.
