This dark mafia romance read is titled: Bound By Revenge. Originally released as the Diamond Duet, this story has been revamped

Bound By Revenge is written by Anna Cole. It's the first book I've read by Cole, but I'm excited to read her other books!

At about 527 Kindle pages, this is a dark mafia romance novel with spice, dirty talk, age gaps, and a enemies-to-lovers trope.

Bound By Revenge by Anna Cole is an age-gap, enemies-to-lovers, dark mafia romance. After being kidnapped, bound, and drugged, Kat wakes up in a strange place. She quickly realizes that towering over her is Nikolai..her one-night stand! And, to her shock, the ruthless boss of the Russian bratva. Feared by all, he has no weaknesses…except her! To survive, she strikes a desperate deal with the devil. But as her past sins catch up with her, Nikolai becomes more than just her captor. Beneath his cold exterior, Kat discovers a man scarred by grief, driven by revenge—and willing to risk his empire and life to protect her. Now, as his devotion turns into obsession, one question haunts her: will he save her…or destroy her for good?

From the beginning, I knew I would be hooked throughout this story. I was able to enjoy the characters, plot, and drama! It was a page-turner!

As always with a dark romance, please read the trigger warnings before reading!

I loved this book! I was hooked from the beginning. I am always a fan of dark romances and this book did not disappoint! I enjoyed reading every second. This story is packed with spicy moments, drama, possessive alpha vibes, touch her and die feels. I really loved both Nik and Kat. I enjoyed having an MMC and an FMC who both can dish it out. I also love an MMC who would do anything for his FMC. It’s also very lovely to see a strong, powerful, girlboss FMC.

I’m a sucker for an enemies-to-lovers romance. So watching Nik and Kat’s undeniable chemistry unfold was really nice to see. I also love a spicy, steamy book and this book will have you on fire! You’re in for a treat! The beginning was a good pace for me, it quickly had action and had very fast-paced relationships. It wasn’t a slow burn and by the end we definitely see these characters grow. As this story progressed, I was hooked with the character development, drama, and romance.

Ultimately, I enjoyed this book! Cole really brought to life a story filled with dark romance, spice, and drama. I rate this book a 5 out of 5. I would recommend this book to those who love dark mafia romances, spicy scenes, enemies to lovers, and alpha possessive MMCs. This is sure to offer captivating moments that will leave you wanting more. So, if you're in the mood for some love and spice this month, be sure to add this book to your reading list <3
