Velvet Kingdom: A Fake Marriage Mafia Romance (Rossi Crime Family Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars 2,032 ratings

My hot-as-sin boss just caught me taking dirty selfies.

My relationship is falling apart, so I decide to spice things up by snapping some steamy pics at the office.

Seems like a great idea until my gorgeous-but-terrifying boss, Renzo Rossi, walks into the room as I’m contorting in the mirror. Completely. Freaking. Topless.

And he’s not shy about complimenting my pose.

Life gets even worse when my boyfriend breaks up with me and skips town with all my stuff.

Dumped, humiliated, and at rock bottom, I’m seriously considering joining a nunnery, if those are still a thing.

When Renzo drops a bombshell:

His arranged wife went on the run and he’s desperate to find a replacement.

He wants me to marry him and carry his surrogate child for the casual sum of five million dollars.

Turns out, the Rossi Famiglia is one of the five biggest mafia organizations in the city of Philadelphia, and Renzo needs an heir to maintain his legitimacy.

My life can’t get worse, right? And anyway, this is just a temporary deal.

Except one nighttime visit turns into two, which turns into three, and soon I can’t get him out of my bedroom.

This was such a good story. I loved the storyline, the characters and the chemistry between the main characters. I read this book in 1 day, it captured my interest right away and I didn’t want to put it down.

Velvet Kingdom is the first installment in the Rossi Crime Family series penned by B.B. Hamel. In it, she chronicles the romantic journey of Madaline “Maddie” Sorrento and Renzo Rossi. Maddie is an office assistant for Renzo’s company. Due to past childhood trauma and a recent breakup with her boyfriend, Maddie assumed a hidden persona, a person in the shadows, who does not call attention to herself. Until one day, Renzo walks into a room where she is in the middle of sending a sexy photo to her boyfriend. He likes what he sees, and she soon possesses his thoughts. That disastrous day is the same one she learned her boyfriend dumped her. In Renzo’s position, as the Don, he needs a wife and his thoughts drift to Maddie. Will he persuade her to be his wife? Will there be obstacles? To find out you must read this book.
Ms. Hamel does an outstanding job utilizing literary devices. Her dialog, both conversational and internal monologues are outstanding. Readers garner a better understanding of their character traits, their backstories, their pain, and their happiness. The lead characters are multi-dimensional. The secondary characters are interesting and contribute to the plot’s movement. I appreciate how she uses intrigue to enhance this character-driven romantic plot and pull her readers into this story.

Love and a war and a new baby. What a love story and the heroine coming into her own ready for next book

This is a great pallet cleansing book. It was a very sweet mafia book with not much angst. BB Hammel is great at being consistent in her writing.

In this story, clothes can hide the true beauty that is underneath. Maddie was the office manager at Rossi corporations. Her relationship with her boyfriend was just hanging on by a thread and she finally decided to take a risk to help spice up the romance. She decided to take a selfie and send it but she got caught by the CEO Renzo Rossi. He had an arranged marriage with the daughter of another crime family but she ran away. Renzo decided to ask Maddie into a fake marriage and provide him an heir and she would be paid a handsome sum after two years. What Maddie didn’t realize was that Renzo had fallen and he was trying everything to get her to love him back. A great story and I recommend reading this book.

Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2024
This book was pretty good. I think she didn't take the whole thing seriously. Though, I don't think he did either. He was thinking he was falling for her, but then he would say he couldn't. So it was kind of annoying but mostly I liked it. There are a lot of typos towards the end, but it's not enough to bug you. Wouldn't say it was gonna stick with me. It's definitely ok to read & I wouldn't steer you away from it. On to the next!

2.0 out of 5 stars Grundidee interessant...
Reviewed in Germany on April 28, 2024
...Umsetzung eher mangelhaft und der Schreibstil ist was für ganz Anspruchslose - kurze Sätze, einfachste Wortwahl, unfähig den Leser mitzunehmen.
Durch diese Einfachheit war es nicht möglich, sich in die Charaktere einzufühlen, die Entwicklung zwischen den Hauptfiguren war unerklärt einfach jedes Mal plötzlich da und am Ende fragte ich mich, weshalb man sich das Mafiagenre aussucht und einen turf war benennt, wenn man keinerlei Absicht hat, das im Buch zu verarbeiten.
Prinzipiell ist der Inhalt des Buches "Trotz großer Schwierigkeiten im Hintergrund spielen wir unbeschwert Mutter, Vater, Kind."

Eher Quälerei als Kurzweil, ich kann es nicht empfehlen.

Engaging book with interesting story filled with lots of family drama, insta-attraction, banter, lust, a bit of heartache , danger, violence and lots of heat! Enjoyable read with HFN because of an ongoing war.

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautifully written mafia story
Reviewed in Australia on February 13, 2024
Maddie and Renzo both had breakups with their ex's on the same day. This is a dark romance with mafia drama and violence, and enemies to lovers with a fake marriage. As always a beautifully written story from BB. As the first in a new family series, I look forward to reading more.

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This was a fun read, storyline centered around many characters, mafia theme bit weak but overall good read. Ending was very strange and confusing.
