Damaged Goods: A Why Choose Dark Mafia Romance (Cruel Crimes Book 1) Kindle Edition

You are only worthy if you prove yourself to the family.

Being the granddaughter of a mafia king sounds like it would make for an easy life, but for Otsana Priamos, it’s the opposite.

From a young age she was taught that survival and wit were everything, while her life was expendable. Despite the damage done to her, Otsana manages to make a deal with her grandfather. Five years of freedom in exchange for her full loyalty.

What the family doesn't realize? She has no intention of going back, no matter the cost.

As luck would have it, she runs into her ex-boyfriend, one of the Adrostos triplets, and the other two are close behind. The trio is as sexy as sin and intent on owning her.

Only she would leave one family to find another, just as dark and twisted as her own.

Sana finds herself in a dangerous game of submission as her relationship with the three deadly psychos promises to possess, worship, and dominate her in every way.

Sometimes you make a deal with the devil, but the devil always wins.

Cruel Crimes is a dark, mafia romance duet and is intended for audiences 18 and up. The content contains darker elements that some readers may find triggering, including dub and non-con, torture, and violence.

Soooo good.

I first off am going to say that if you are scrolling through for more info on the book and know whether it is a good book or not this is the review for you.

The world building, more a clan building...slowly learning more about the characters tortured past and who the family is. There is humor, dark triggers, blood and sorrow all mixed into one perfectly written package.
The character building is strong and intense. The main charcter (FMC), Sana, is amazing. From her torture twisted raising to her dark and twisted needs, there is still this strong defiance and wit within a sexy fireball of a woman. She is strong and fierce with a stubborn streak that you actually want to continue.

The why choose: only flaw for me is the three men don't have much differences, they are all dominate alphas who are dark and twisted. They a fierce protectors and can crack a whip...if you know what I mean. That's it though, there is not much else, one isn't better than the other...not including they are triplets so ...maybe that's why the author keeps the close in personalities...?

The plot is interesting, I personally found it entertaining and fresh. I don't know where it is going but I like where it has started. I can say I love the author has the big main plot riding on mystery with a smaller plot that gets solved before brutal cliffhanger.

If you don't like blood or blood in bed then this is not for you. I found the taboo hot and the rough play delightful. I cannot wait to read more.

Hoping book 2 doesn't disappoint.

The story line is good. I love that the author portrays such a strong character as a submissive. Most people assume that being submissive means being meak and a push over. Even the “dub-con” scene had the availability of a safe word. So yeah, I really like that this story has a bada** brat! Although technically bratting should be consented to by the dom/doms beforehand and there wasn’t as much communication as I would have liked about the lifestyle, there was some so it gets a free pass due the characters history. Also due to it not being a true BDSM relationship… it is a dark mafia novel after all. ;)

One thing I will note is that I am not connecting with the characters as I would hope especially the MMCs. Not sure what it is. Maybe a depth issue? I also have a hard time separating Kill and Ky they are so similar… Keir is easier because well.. he is the most psycho. I thought Kill would be the most dominant but halfway through the book Keir took that role too. I guess Kill is the hothead and Ky has the “most” patience. But that is just a character quality not the whole.. So… I don’t know. Anyways, I am going to go read the other book. Because although I feel like the are some technical issues it is still pretty awesome.

Mafia+Triplets need I say more

We meet Sana, who is trying to enjoy her freedom away from the family. As you can guess that freedom and peace is often ruined mostly by her crazy grandfather and also her exes...the Adrostos triplets.

In this book we get all the great elements that mafia readers love....the complexity of the family, the violence...while also getting to see a relationship be rekindled in the mist of all that craziness.

Keir, Ky and Killian definitely have it bad for Sana and had me laughing (in a good way) a couple of times in how they would interact. You can definitely tell the love is there even through all the possessiveness.

Can't wait to see what happens next especially after the ending...things are able to get interesting

Grammatical and spelling errors. Quotation marks in the wrong place. Also felt a bit like it was trying too hard to be dark.

First off I have to say James is one of my favorite authors but this book isn't my favorite. The writing is awesome and it has a good storyline but I couldn't get into the characters. I don't understand the whole sub thing so I guess that's more on me but the MC just lets them order her around. She talks back but in the end does what they say and keeps going back instead of putting her foot down. She is pretty bad a** but the rest of the time is childish. I don't like the guys characters that much either. I'm fine with the crazy but their attitudes just bothered me. Dani is the only character that I really liked. So I'm really up in the air with this it's obviously a great story but there was a lot I didn't like.

Holy Hotness is this book good! I will tell you right now, if you love dark RH mafia romances, you do not want to miss out on this book! It is amazing! It’s got action, intrigue, suspense, sexiness, and a set of hot as hell triplets! The characters and unique storyline are excellent! I absolutely recommend and consider it a Must Read! I cannot wait for book two!

Jarica really knocked this book out the park. I am a mafia book fanatic and sana and the guys are a dream come true in terms of books. Sana isnt your typical mafia princess she beating butt and taking names. She tries to crave our a path away from her crazy family and although that path is made of blood its her own life of her own making at least for the time being. In walk in triplets exactly what every deadly gangster turn gamer nerd needs. This world jarica created is unique to her she took a typical concept and made it her own and she rocked it. Looking forward to the next two books in this trilogy. It doesn't end in a mild cliff hanger but the story is sooo worth it

I'm not the biggest fan of mafia books but will read certain tropes in this genre. This book hit all the right spots for me.

Sana is a bit of a brat, which is a bit grating the further you get through the book. She has a troubled past and in the end is just fighting against anyone and everyone. I hope she can learn to let her walls down in book 2 and hopefully she will be a little bit more likeable and able to move past some of her issues.

The triplets are alpha psychos, I love how they just take what they want without apology and love Sana wholeheartedly.

Can't wait for more in this series!

Well this was a good book to read, all things mafia.
Between Sana and her triplets.
And a deranged grandfather that has trained his granddaughter since the age of 7. All the twists and turns in the book will get you guessing.
