Oh wow! Didn’t see that coming

Harley has taken this story onto an unexpected outcome. Following immediately on from book 1, Ari has to fight for her survival once again after finding herself in an unforeseen situation, which is well written, giving the reader sufficient information, whilst not overly detailing the context. Her determination, fighting instinct and vision prove invaluable, turning her situation into a potential win. Ari, still fighting for her and Vittorio’s survival, whilst overcoming the kidnapping, pushes and persuades Bellino at every opportunity. The brothers, not given a choice by Ari but to air out the hidden lies of their father’s abuse, results in Bellino reluctantly forging an untrusting alliance with Ari and Vittorio, to aid him to become who he wants to be. This book is fast paced with plenty of smut in all of the right places. Who knew Bellino could have anything other than rage and anger as an emotion! Well done Harley with your first mafia duet, didn’t quite see this becoming a love story….. can’t wait to see what else is on the horizon.

Holy crap! That was a crazy arse slap to brain I was not expecting! Damn you Harley and your brilliant, but evil mind!

My Legacy to Break, is Bellino's part of the Legacies story. It should just be called BELLINO. He is one hell of a presence and Harley has written him so well. She doesn't turn him into a soft, mushy mafia king by the end of the book. Harley has done a fantastic job of turning a completely unhinged and more than morally grey character into one that has nudged his way into our hearts, even if his way of loving and showing his love are a smidge unconventional.
Harley doesn't hold back with a story. It is fast paced with no word fillers. Something I truly love about her writing style. The plot will have you so damn hooked and the characters will leave you hyped. You will want more of Harley Raige's books and kickarse characters.
Harley once again has given us an absolute banger of a read. I love Harley's badass female leads, but I could not get enough of Bellino.

Harley friggin Raige! Woman you are unstoppable! This is hands down the book I needed when it came to Bellino’s story and I’m so in love with Leo. The masculinity and brutality of bell is just perfection. I love how he keeps his persona whilst he’s falling in love and he devours his husband from the second they are married. It’s very 🌶️🥵

We already had Arianna and Vittorio story and I was so excited for Bellino as he’s so over powering and brutal. His character never falters even when he finds out the truth about how and why he and Vittorio were treated by their father. The way he stands up for himself and demands to marry Leo was everything!

This is super fast paced and there is no lull which is what Harley does best. She keeps it coming in both the smut and the storyline and it’s one book you really don’t want to miss out on. This series is so different to the reapers and I’m all for the mafia domination too. I can’t wait to see what’s next 😍

***BOOK REVIEW***

‘My Legacy To Break’ by Harley Raige

4 x ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
3 x 🌶️🌶️🌶️

What a book!!
What a final conclusion to the story!!
What a ride!!

I bloody loved it!! 🖤

Spoiler 👇 below!!


My first experience of male on male 🍆 and well … yes please I’d like some more!!

I’ve never hated 😡 a main character so much … to then … fall for them 🥰 so hard!!

‘Bellino’ - He’s horrible! Obnoxious !! Big! Bold! High and mighty!! He thinks he’s the best!

‘Leonardo’ - he’s small! Cute! 😊 quirky! invisible! & straight!! … Or so he thinks!!

The way these two come together is a story of love & hate! 🩶 It begins as an unwanted arrangement but it blossoms into a powerful relationship of truth and trust!! 🤍

From stalker to husband!! And all the juiciness that follows!! 🍆💋🔪🩸💦

This story blends the previous book with the new one! ❤️ Joining both stories so they interconnect perfectly!!

Harley you’ve dipped your toes into mafia! 💀 Now it’s time to drive in head first!! 🖤 More please …

This is part two of the Legacies duology, and it picks up right where book one left off.
Arianna and Vittorio are still trying to rid themselves of the threat from the other mafia families, who are, admittedly, fewer in numbers now, but they now have a reluctant ally in Vittorio’s brother.
Bellini is unsure whether he can trust the duo but with lies and hidden truths being brought into light, a fragile truce binds them together. He has his own agenda, though, and only time will tell if it aligns with Arianna and Vittorio’s or if they can mold their uneasy alliance it not something long lasting.
It’s sexy, bloody, exciting, deliciously debauched, and did I mention sexy? Really, truly, balls to the wall sexy. Enjoy.

[Shannon's Books · Rating 5 out of 5]

absolutely nailed it.. you would think shes always written mafia books previously but dipping her toe in has certainly worked wonders.

the story had me gripped from the start, not only did we get Arianna and Vittorio story, we got bellino and Leonardos too! from book 1 I never thought Bellino would grow on me, but book 2 changed all my opinions, albeit he's still a tw*t 🤣

this book had everything, make sure you read your triggers (I have none but know there is delicate topics), it had action, spice, certainly chases ... everything youd expect in a dark mafia story.

I just want more from this work Harley Raige! Do another book 🤣😍

5 stars!!!

[Justina Staniforth · Rating 4 out of 5]

I didn’t know if I’d like a MM dark romance compared to why choose, but I loved it!
Bellino is as dark and stormy as they come. But seeing him soften ever so slightly for a man he will burn the world down for was so redeeming.
Leonardo is such a golden retriever you can’t help but love, and to watch his transformation was exciting and fun.
I loved that we still had Ari and Rio’s story to follow. How the Queen intent on taking down the syndicate and creating her own stronger, united family, fully came into her own.
Well done Miss Raige! You definitely hit the mafia genre on the head 😘

ARC read 5/5 5⭐️ 2.5🌶️

Wow - what a finale!! Part 2 of Legacies, picks up right where we dropped off we still see Vittorio and Arianna (superstars), but now with added Bellini. Abso-chuffing-lutely!! I'm all over Bellini and Leonardi...what a couple!

The story through line was great and the 2 books follow on so well from each other, and to think I thought after the 'my legacy to take' I thought Bellini was a tool....what a turnaround. The power, strength and resolve of this man is what I'm here for.

Fast-paced, powerful with an actual storyline and smut - what more can you ask for. A fab book, a cracking series. Hits all the spots - read it - trust me!

[Marcia - itsabookthing2021 · Rating 4 out of 5]

My Legacy To Break picks up where we left off in My Legacy To Take, I loved the continuation of Ari and Vittorio - I love them both so much. I also loved how this story was more focused on Bellino and Leo. Their characters were created so well, with more depth than we first realised. The turns this novel took had me gripped and I liked how everyone got punished just how they should have. I also loved how there's no insta love, there's understanding and need but it's all done realistically. This novel gave us it all, love, action, spice, gore and plotline. It was written fabulously, it had me hooked from start to end.

[Lisa Babin · Rating 5 out of 5]

What an ending! This book is fast paced with plenty of smut in all of the right places. What more could you ask for.

It picks up right where it left off from the previous books cliff hanger. Though it does have you go from hating a character to loving them.

I loved Bellino and Leo's story it was worth the read! The way these two come together is an amazing story. It begins as unwanted but it turns into a beautiful relationship!!

This is a great finale to this mafia series by Harley. The series flows into each other well and does not have any boring spots between the cliff hangers and smut! Definitely worth it.

[Wendy Smith · Rating 5 out of 5]

Well Harley Raige totally owns the world of Mafia, she nailed her dip into this genre with this series. I absolutely loved it ❤️❤️❤️ Reading about Bellino and Leonardo’s story, how not gay Leonardo is, to how much love he has for Bellino in the end was beautiful. Bellino will protect him with his life whilst taking what he wants from this world, everything his father waved in his face. I was so enamoured with this love story, a definite page turner and very entertaining. 100% recommend this book and series to everyone ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ you will not be disappointed 😎🖤

[Janene · Rating 5 out of 5]

I absolutely loved being back in this world. Where do I start. Arianna as always is a force to be reckoned with, girl knows justice is all I will say and loved reading more about her and Vitto. Bellino for me stole the show in this book. His character development was amazing and yes he is a little unhinged but I was here for it. Leonardo is just such a sweetheart, him and Bellino well that was hot as hell. Heartwarming to read their story. Highly anticipated read and I loved every second of it.

[The.Curly.Reader · Rating 5 out of 5]

4.5 ⭐️ (Rounded up)
🌶🌶🌶🌶
Wow, wow, WOW!!!!
I've been chomping at the bit to get Bellino's story, and it was so worth the wait 🖤
I loved that we still get Arriana and Vittorio sprinkled in without it feeling forced and Leonardo is just too cute!!
I just wish we could have seen how the outcome of what transpired with The Syndicate played out, but maybe we'll find out one day.........PLEASE Ms Raige 🙏🤣

[Lisa · Rating 5 out of 5]

OMG 😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜

So the book that sums up the Legacy Series and it is a scorcher 🥵🥵🥵🥵

Firstly, we have to see something that we know will have us routing for the 🔪 to come out to play 😉

Then…………another arranged marriage is on the cards……but what will happen??????

This book is a real delight to read AND the 🥵 scenes are just that…..so so 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

Read these in order to make sense and get ready to have your hearts swayed with some new Mafia men 😋

[Kurtins R · Rating 4 out of 5]

This story!
It took hold from the start and didn't let go. Not only did we get Arianna and Vittorio's story, we got to see Bellino and Leonardo's too! Bellino is/was a dick right from the start and I didn't think I would ever like him, but this book made him grow on me though he is still a dick!
This story had everything, please make sure you check triggers, it had action, spice, certainly chases ... everything you'd expect in a dark mafia story.

[Harriet · Rating 5 out of 5]

Yes. Yes. A thousand times yes!

This book is STUNNING!

From start to finish this book is EVERYTHING!

🔥SEX
🔥BLOOD
🔥HEA
🔥BROODING MOBSTER

From brothers who hated each other, played off against each other by their father to an unstoppable trio…..

To an arranged marriage that looked like it was going to end in disaster, Leo wanted a quiet life which looked almost possible until Bell set his sights on him 😏

Arianna really was the best thing to happen to the syndicate

[Carissa · Rating 5 out of 5]

"What are you really asking, lil' lamb?"
"I want to be yours"

The couple I didnt know I needed!! I actually prefer Bellino and Leonardo over Ari and Rio and that's saying something because I loved them!
Ok so to be completely honest, I was not a fan of Bellino until this book! The way he wants and protects Leo is everything! Love the "burn down the whole world" vibe he gives!
"I want this Bellino. I want you. Break me."
10/10 recommend this book!

[Kerry Batchelor · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow! This book hits all the feels! And we get to see another side of 'dry as toast' Bellino, in the continuation from My Legacy To Take.
Definitely read trigger warnings if you have any triggers, they hit hard from early on, but certainly worth pushing on through, and revenge is sweet!
A couple of scenes had my wincing, mostly going in dry, and some gory bits in detail. But overall, a great read, I read it in 1 sitting, as couldn't put it down

[Mary Kelly · Rating 5 out of 5]

Does not disappoint!

In the conclusion to this duology, Harley Raige brings the FMC and two MMCs together but can they work successfully to bring the Syndicate down? Will trust ever truly develop between them to make it work? Or will seeds sown in their upbringing determine the outcome of their future? I will say, success at the end is hard fought making for a great ending to the author’s first foray into the mafia genre.

[Stacie · Rating 5 out of 5]

The final installment of The Legacies series and Wow! I absolutely loved this series and My Legacy to Break was fantastically written. I really liked that it was centered around Bellino and we got his story.
I want to say more but I don't want to give spoilers...it's so f*cking good.
You all need to read it.....but if you have any triggers be sure to check them out before reading.

[Jennifer Taylor · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was such an engaging read that I devoured it all in on afternoon. This goes back into the same world and characters as the first book int he duet. It picks up right where the last one ended. This was great to see another side of Bellino and see him grow as a person to find family and love. I hope to read more from this group!

[Kira · Rating 5 out of 5]

I need more!!!! Ugh I absolutely devoured this. But really I devoure anything Harley writes! Top tier 5 stars!!! You get spicy spice, twists and turns you didn't see, and Arianna who is that baddest of them all! That you cant help but love her. Then oof enters Vittorio and he woo wee hell have you weak in the knees.

[joanne29 · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow - it doesn’t stop! Here comes Bellino! What a character he is -very unhinged but I have a soft spot for him as he comes into his own. His relationship between him and Arianna is gripping to read. They have a push and pull dynamic that continues throughout the book. There is trauma and revenge - in a truly mafia way. I’m hoping there are more mafia books from this author - they are fantastic !

[Shauna Cummins · Rating 5 out of 5]

When I got this I could not put it down at all and devoured it in one sitting.
Spice top tier
FMC is a bad ass kicking ass and taken names
Parts had me kicking and giggling

If your looking for a mafia series this is the series for you bestie

[Sharon Jackson · Rating 5 out of 5]

An epic finish to an awesome duet!
The Prelude was great and from there it only got better and the ending didn't disappoint. It was everything I hoped it would be and I would highly recommend it if you like a gritty, fast paced read with some spice.

[Philomena Callan Cheekypee · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book continues straight from book one so make sure you read book one first. WOW!!!! I thoroughly enjoyed this story. Once I started I needed to see what was going to happen next. This is an author I’ll be keeping my eye out for as this was a great series.

[KJ Pointer · Rating 5 out of 5]

I read this book so quickly it’s unreal. This follows on from my legacy to break so you need to have read that and prelude first. This one features more about Bellino than Ariana and Vittario but they’re still in this book but more in the background. This was so spicy and has MM bi-awakening in it and it’s so well written that you instantly fall for these characters. I just love these books so much and the humour and storylines are always fantastic. Harley is a must read author for me and this series is a must read.

[Carrie Hess · Rating 5 out of 5]

such an amazing book and the ending for the series! dark M/M Mafia romance.
