Tropes : mafia romance, J/P H, touch her and 💀, forced proximity, big guy x small gal, enemy’s stepdaughter Ending : cliffhanger Triggers : murder, violence, gore, attempted kidnapping, blackmail Spice : 🌶� 🌶� 🌶️🌶️ /5 Angst : 🔥 🔥 🔥 /5 OM/OW drama : OM (h’s friend) Intimacy details : virgin h, rough sex, no condom, oral, slight somnophilia, slight blood kink Standalone / Series : part of an interconnected series but technically a duet
Apparently it’s a duet. I didn’t know that so I read it. Usually I don’t read incomplete series because I got bad memory so I prefer reading all the books right away so there was no gap. This shuckzzz.
This was about the youngest Del Rossa sibling. I didn’t read any of the previous books so I didn’t know the lore of the series but I understand most of the things that was happening here without reading those books. I almost read Alexius� book but I think there were some pet peeves of mine there so I avoided it like a plague. Thankfully this one was safe for me. No sharing, no threesome before the h meet the H, no promiscuous MCs which was great.
The ending was quite something. But I think Anthony ain’t dead. But idk, will be reading the next one when it came out for sure.

Tropes —ĔĔĔĔ�- Dark Sovereign book 9 Mafia V FMC OTT POSSESSIVE MMC Jealous
Ends in a CLIFFHANGER, conclusion in His Angel �
Isaia DelRossa � 26, youngest DelRossa brother � enforcer of sorts , free spirit � never truly feels like he belongs in the mafia life �
Everly� 21 year old beauty he is instantly mesmerized with � 2 toned eyes 👀, bumbly personality, with a drooly dog ! She is a step daughter of mafia boss from NY . She cannot stand that man or anything he stands for
From the first interaction he was entranced with her entire being . He stalks her to get to know her better .. the secrets start to unravel . From their first kiss he was like a caveman screaming MINE!!!!!
I KNEW IT! Yes that was meant to be in capital letters because anyone that drives a yellow ferrari and sends out happy go lucky vibes will most definitely be the most unhinged in the group. I couldn't wait to get Isaia story because I knew it was going to be balls to the wall epic proportions. This man will have you eating up them pages, have you losing sleep.
Everly who's fighting her own demons, tries her best to not fall under his radar. But sure as the sun rises and sets, she ends up on it. Everly brought out all the sides of Isaia. I was even afraid for his bros. This man would burn everything in his path to get to his girl. His only focus is Everly. Could not put this one down. I enjoyed every page of it. Bella J has done it again. Each book in this series gets better and better.
Bella J’s Isaia brings together two strong-willed characters with undeniable chemistry.
Isaia, the male lead, is the classic mafia hero—brooding, possessive, and fiercely protective (“don’t touch my woman or I’ll burn the world down� vibes, and I loved it!). While he fits the typical mold, Bella J gives him depth that makes him more than a stereotype.
Everly, with her trusty basset hound Luna, is a refreshing contrast. She’s smart, strong, and relatable—not the helpless damsel often found in this genre. Her resilience and wit make her the perfect match for Isaia’s dark intensity, and their relationship feels natural and engaging.
The plot is easy to follow but avoids being predictable. Bella J keeps things exciting with twists that flow naturally. Be warned, though—the book ends on a cliffhanger that will leave you wanting more.
Overall, Isaia is a gripping dark mafia romance. The strong characters and thrilling story make it a must-read for fans of the genre.
I’ll be the first to admit this book/series is not for the faint of heart. If you’re looking for romance filled with sunshine and roses, these books are not for you. But if you are looking for dark, delicious and totally decadent storylines these hop aboard. I highly recommend reading the series in order as the basic background story flows from book to book.
Isaia isn’t an easy man. He’s not like his brothers, he doesn’t thrive on power and intimidation. But he does know his duty and knows how to play his part in the Dark Sovereign. But when his path crosses with a beauty that turns out to be a part of a rival family, will he believe her or his brothers? Can he convince them of her innocence or is she a plant there to reel them all in?
The book held me captive from start to finish and in true Bella J fashion it ends on a cliffhanger. But boy oh boy this reader can’t wait to see what happens next.
The Dark Sovereign Series has been a Wild ride full of alpha heroes that are filthy, dangerous to the max and them being brothers makes the dance between the forbidden and the precariousness that much more maddening and delicious too.
Finally we have the youngest brother, Isaia's book in our hands and I think I have to make a secret confession that - HE'S HAD MY HEART, A SOFT CORNER FOR HIM, RIGHT FROM THE START.
But I didn't expect to see his fierce Obsessive side that had me fanning myself from all the intensity - to drive me so FREAKING CRAZY.
Isaia and Everly... Oh my... From the way they casually meet to when things get serious to the Max... I was GLUED TO THE PAGES.
Even though what starts as a simple - keep an eye on the suspect scenario, that suspect being Everly, Isaia had no idea he was going to have his world changed forever with the one woman he'd been waiting for since forever.
I've felt for this man, when we saw how he was fighting his feelings right from Book 1 in this series - when he was confused about those feelings for someone else... Someone forbidden.
But it isn't until Everly walks into his life does Isaia know what the true meaning of being OBSESSED IS.
Everly has always drifted from one place to another. Her unwanted connection to the mafia family and her step father, Rinaldi - kept her on her toes and wary of letting anyone close.
Isaia Del Rossa, though, comes like a thunder in her life and storms her with raging feelings and emotions she's never experienced before.
I was such a goner for the rollercoaster ride these two had taken me onto.
Even with the complicated angle of Everly's friend, Anthony and their friendship, the way Isaia just wouldn't let anyone near her or the way he would claim her... Oh my freaking goodness... Let me just say THE PASSION BETWEEN THESE TWO... THE CHEMISTRY IS SO MADDENINGLY SPICY AND HOT...🥵🌶️🔥�
I really liked Anthony as Everly's friend for the way he didn't back down. Yes, he's also from an equally powerful mafia family and I sometimes did doubt his intentions but you couldn't help but like this man who was amazing in his own way.
This book was a Wild ride that grabbed me strongly in its clutches from that first page and HONESTLY IT'S ANOTHER REMINDER OF WHY I'M OBSESSED WITH BELLA J BOOKS... because the way she writes her stories, with heroes that dance a thin line of morally right and to heck with it Wrongs - Sometimes those lines blur, but what makes me totally IN... ALLL IN is the way Bella J makes me sing for that same hero who's being justifiably the Morally Gray King from page 1.
I was so on edge for those last pages, turning them like crazy AND HONESTLY THE TWISTS... ONE AFTER ANOTHER... To say I was shocked is the least. I WAS LIKE WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED😯😳😱😱😱... I was so freaking SHOCKED.
Ahhh... I need freaking more... Especially after that ending but also there's so much happening that I can't wait to get my hands on the next book... What a freaking delicious, spicy, deadly and dangerously Wild ride of Emotions, Obsession and twists this one was. Absolutely loved loved this one. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

ARC Review 💫 This book should come with a warning label!! And a recommendation for a very cold shower after!!
WOW ANOTHER INCREDIBLE BOOK!! Bella J knows how to write a book with a man who has the filthiest mouth and will leave you wanting to start smoking and sit in a very cold shower to recover 😂
Isaia can happily destroy my heart and body any day!! I volunteer as tribute 😂😂
I was sent this incredible book a few weeks ago and I have read it about 3 times already it's so good!!! Isaias story has been one that I've been waiting to read since I first read Alexius because he just intrigued me so much!! He was the cheeky, quiet one with a big heart but also had that dark edge about him, he stood out to the others because he seemed to be different to his brothers. I CAN SAY WITH GREAT CONFIDENCE THAT THE WAIT WAS WORTH IT!!!! Now I was Team Nicoli, I love all 5 Del Rossa Brothers (cannot forget Maximo can we!) But Nicoli was the one who I thought was my favourite. Well that was until I read Isaias book!!!!! He is hands down my favourite!!! Caelian and Nicoli both were amazing smutty talkers but ISAIA 🥵🥵🥵🥵 his mouth should come with a warning label!!! This book was completely different to the other brothers stories because of how Isaia and Everly met, how their story is told is completely different and I absolutely loved that. Everly is absolutely lovely and I really loved her throughout this story, she's quiet and appears to be this timid little mouse but she's got fire and she stands up for herself and won't be pushed around. Isaia is obsessive, unhinged, unapologetically possessive and will do ANYTHING to keep Everly. I wouldn't say it's exactly a slow burn but there's definitely a build up of tention between Isaia and Everly for a while but my god it's absolute perfection when you get to the 😉😈 You see the brothers relationship a fair bit in this book and I loved seeing Alexius and Isaias relationship more. The banter between Isaia and Caelian carries on from the previous books and it was hilarious 😂
The spice was 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶 Bella J definitely knows how to write a Spicy scene!!!! I just need more now!!!!!!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶 10000000000% recommend!!! If you love dark smutty romance then start reading The Dark Sovereign series!!
Bella, Bella, Bella, what are you doing to me??? I've become addicted to your books, and I always want more and more... Do I regret it??? Absolutely not... not even for a second. Dear readers, If you want to dive into a Mafia series that will take you off your feet and make you dream... go for this one. You'll know why... Isaia is book nine from the Dark Sovereign series and I advise you to read this entire series from the beginning. You'll thank me later. This book explores the lives of Isaia and Everly. Isaia is the youngest DelRossa's brother. All of them ruthless as they can be... He had this happy vibe around him but he's wicked, possessive, intense, and a bit crazy. He's different, that's for sure, and knows the power that comes with his last name. He knows what he wants so when he sees Everly... Everly is a sweetheart with a huge mouth on her. lol She wants to live her life freely and knows what she doesn't want. Her only problem is her family and... Jesus.. WTFFFFF A cliffhanger, that's what. Am I mad? Hell yeah, but not so much because I know that I'll have more and I can't wait for it. This book was explosive to say the least. The way the story progressed left me on edge the entire time and I just couldn't stop reading. One page led to another and when I realized it was 6 am and the book was over... Crazy right?? That's the way I stay each and every time I read a book from the amazing Bella J. Isaia and Everly are amazing together and I love his craziness and her smart mouth. Love that she doesn't back down from a fight and that she knows how to "tame" the monster that is Isaia. lol And the hot stuff... jesus, lord have mercy on our souls... But I just love to walk on the left side... ah, ah, ah. This book was amazing and I can't wait for the next one. Please Bella, I need it soon... soon... Not going to pressure you but can it be tomorrow??? Lol
What you can expect: � Obsessive/Protective/Possessive Hero � Virgin Heroine � Touch Her & Die Vibes � Sizzling Heat � Boss/Employee
"Isaia Del Rossa is a man who doesn't just command attention. He devours it."
ISAIA is the nineth installment in the Dark Sovereign series and the first in Isaia Del Rossa's duet. I have been waiting for Isaia's story since the beginning and Bella J did not disappoint, nor did she hold back on anything. Devouring this book in a matter of hours was easy as it was an addictive, unputdownable read. This is a dark romance, so it's not sweet or fluffy, it's filthy, forbidden, decadent, and violent. A wild ride you won't want to get off.
Alexius, Nicoli, and Caelian Del Rossa are all dominant, protective, and filthy mouthed men, but they have nothing on their youngest brother Isaia. This yellow Ferrari driving Del Rossa is filth at its filthiest, powerfully dominant, and over-the-top protective and ultra obsessive. I wouldn't have wanted him any other way ... he was delicious. Everly Beaumont wanted nothing more than to escape the mafia world, and she was succeeding until Isaia walked into her life. I adored Everly, while being an absolute sweetheart she was also tenacious, no walkover, and wasn't afraid to voice her opinions. She never stood a chance when it came to Isaia and his determination to have her. Their chemistry was incredible, and their heat was volcanic, but it was their banter which I couldn't get enough of.
Bella J brings back all the Del Rossa dynamics, the spice, the banter, the bossiness, the dominance, and the protective nature. Isaia is a man who will destroy everything and everyone who stands in the way of him having Everly, his "Troublemaker Angel". Isaia and Everly's journey is a wild one, there's plenty going on and of course it ends in a cliffhanger which had my jaw dropping. His Angel, their continuing story can't come soon enough.
Isaia is the 9th installment in the Dark Sovereign Series and it can be read as a standalone, ending in a brutal cliffy , although I would suggest to read the books in order for a better comprehensiom of the background and architecture of liasons.
Isaia is the youngest Del Rossa, 26, lives the life on his own terms, one he wasn't born for but was toughened up to be...stealth, observer and lethal, he does the job as a Del Rossa and chooses not to feel, because the burden would be too much.
In the unlikely event...a fre@king meet-cute happens and Isaia experiences embarassment, attitude and wittiness, finds doubts and a lot of suspicion, loses his patience, his temper and eventually, his heart. Everly, 21, bubly, dog girl, free-spiritted and opinionated, doesn't know where she's going, but does know where she ain't, as does how impressed she became with the rough around the edges black-eyed man her dog decided to trap.....
The Del Rossas stand above, knowing at every corner might be a potencial threat and absolutely nothing is coincidential, so the order is to keep tabs.... Isaia and Everly's connection is astoundly visceral, impetuous, undiluted and even his suspicions and the mystery blanketing her stay in Chicago, don't deviate their intense attraction, Isaia's means of achievement and Everly internal conflicts between wills, wants and volition to act and most of all, how safe is she.
Very energetic and fast-paced, the narrative runs in a high-octane, adrenaline-fuelled succession of events, peril, blackmail and coerced capitulation where whites lies turn into the bl00d-stained truth of reality.
Oh Everly...I wouldn't want to be in your shoes....
For all of those Del Rossa men fans out there, Isaia is going to blow your minds!!! This dirty talking, obsessive, possessive bad boy should come with a panty-melting warning. Holy fudge he’s freaking hot! I couldn’t wait to read Isaia’s book and let me tell you that it was MORE then I ever anticipated. Every moment of Isaia and Everly’s story consumed me.
Isaia Del Rossa may have brought Alexius down a notch in my book boyfriend favourites. Just when I thought that his brothers Nicoli and Caelian were the naughtiest dirty talkers…nope, Isaia wins hands down😮
As strong of a character Isaia is, I really enjoyed Everly. I like that even though she’s a sweetheart, she won’t be push around and her tenacity is impressive. I love how much these two characters burn for one another and how fascinating, interesting and alluring their story is. Why can’t we get enough of these Del Rossa men?? They’re like the most delicious tasting chocolate you have ever had the pleasure of devouring.
So if you want to escape into a dark mafia romance filled with angst, twist and turns, passionate spicy scenes, engaging family dynamics, amusing Del Rossa bantering and a unhinged, completed desire driven bad boy who would burn the entire world for the women he calls “Mine or Troublemaker�, you will be thoroughly satisfied, greatly captivated and deeply enticed by Isaia! FYI: this books ends with a heart-gripping cliffhanger that will have you yearning for His Angel.
To say I enjoyed this book would be an understatement! I was mesmerized by this exhilarating and astonishing story.
2.5 stars. OTT mafia romance with decent plot. ( I forgot that I started reading book one in this series awhile ago and stopped after reading the reviews. Brothers sharing their whores and even the heroines. No thanks.) Isaia doesn’t share Everly (yet) and there’s another suitor who’s interested in her, so I was interested enough to finish the book, albeit skimming some. Everly makes a really dumb decision in the end (of course) but I will probably read next book to find out what happens.
This scene is what triggered my memory to the first book (Alexius/Leandra)- The rage in his eyes as he fucked Leandra in front of me, making her scream, marking her as his. He thought I loved her. For a while, I thought so too. But while he forced me to watch him fuck her, desperate to prove a point—the point being that Leandra belongs to him—I sat there bleeding, watching him take her, and my cock was rock fucking hard.
Then we has this scene when Everly first meets Isaia’s brothers and their wives- Leandra, Alexius’s wife, steps forward next. She’s regal in an almost intimidating way, but her smile softens her sharp features. “Isaia’s plus-one. You’re braver than I thought.� “Braver?� I ask, my brow arching. “Isaia’s a handful,� she replies, shooting him a knowing look. “But I suppose you already know that.� There’s no mistaking the edge in her tone—something I can’t quite place. Very classy, Leandra. Considering how much you got off on Isaia in previous books. 🤮Will be interesting to see how Everly reacts to the brothers/wives sexual pasts, if she ever finds out. Oh, and the details of their sex club. 🙄

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dark, Dangerous, and Utterly Addictive!
Yet again, Bella J. delivers another fast-paced, white-knuckle ride with Isaia: A Dark Mafia Romance (Dark Sovereign Book 9). This sizzling hot dark romance pulls you in from the very first page and refuses to let go.
Isaia may appear to be the more polished, refined brother—cruising around in his sleek yellow Ferrari—but don’t be fooled. Beneath that smooth exterior lie dark, unreadable eyes hinting at depths few can imagine. He’s soft on the outside, sure, but there’s a storm beneath that surface—dangerous, unpredictable, and oh-so-deadly.
Enter Everly. The moment she crosses Isaia’s path, you know the ride is about to get wild. Their story unfolds with twist after shocking twist you won’t see coming. Everly isn’t just another love interest—she has her own secrets, just as dangerous, just as deadly. Together, Isaia and Everly’s chemistry is intoxicating—fiery, electric, and impossible to look away from.
Family dynamics add yet another layer of complexity, making this a compulsive, can’t-put-down read. And, of course, Bella J. delivers that ending—another nail-biting cliffhanger that leaves you gasping. Seriously, how does she keep doing this?!
If you’re looking for a dark romance dripping with danger, desire, and deliciously swoony moments only Bella J. can write, Isaia is an absolute must-read. Prepare to fall hard for this dark sovereign—because this isn’t just a romance; it’s a walk on the wild, dangerous side, and you’ll love every second.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie's Book Reports.
This is the first book in a duet inside the Dark Sovereign world. It is the story of Isaia and Everly. Isaia is the enforcer. The one they call when the job needs to be done. But he is also the youngest of the DelRossa brother's.. He has always felt a little like an outsider in the family because his brothers seem to take to this life like it is second nature and he doesn't. When he meets Everly the first thing that draws him to her are her unique eyes. She literally runs into him and he gets tangled in her dogs leash and he is not a dog person and her is a drooling menace according to him. I loved her personality so much. She is also a girl who doesn't stay in one place to long. She is in a way running from a stepfather she never wanted and one that wants things from her that shes not willing to give. She just wants her life and her freedom. Even if that means not staying in one place to long.She too is interested in Isaia from the moment she sees him, but is afraid to let him get too close. She knows who he is and what his life entails and her father is certainly not his family's friend. That's about all I can say about this book. I love every single second of this book. The prologue will suck you in and have to reading to find out what is going on. I was glued to this book and devoured it. This is a book that you do not want to miss. Now I just have to sit and patiently wait for His Angel to see what is going to happen.
Bella J has a talent for edge of your seat, dark and delicious gripping books. Each book in the dark sovereign series is unique, yet all pull together to create a world that you wish you were part of. The men are bossy, protective, possesive, charming but so dark that they each have certain traits that drive you crazy. Isaia, is a broody 26 year old who doesn't really love the mafia world he was born into, not like his older brothers but he accepts and embraces the life. Meeting Everly changes him, she enters his life in a whirlwind. Her easy going, lovable nature makes him pause, his intense personality is not used to light and chatty young women. He becomes obsessed, finding all he can about her and what he discovers leaves him wanting to destroy and claim her. Isaia is a force of nature, he acts on impulse, without hesitation. Everly is a strong young women and can finally be herself with Isaia. They make a strong couple, she softens him amd he is her anchor. Ending on a cliffhanger this book will make you crazy with the suspense. Gimme Gimme the next book His Angel Bella, I adore this series and don't want it to end. I received an ARC and urge you to pick it up on release day!
Bella really outdid herself with Isaia’s story. You really need to start with Alexius before reading Isaia. It’s always the quiet, seemingly nice ones you have to watch out for. While Nicoli is my king and owns my heart, Isaia carved out a place in my heart that is just his. Didn’t think it would happen, but he did it. What do you expect from a dirty talking, naughty, yellow Ferrari driving man. You may think you know Isaia from the other books, but you don’t. While he is the baby of the family, he certainly has his naughtiness 😈 in top form. This was packed with suspense, shocks, emotions all over the place and twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. Everly better watch out. The chemistry between these two is explosively hot. 🥵 OMGOSH!! If you want sunshine, rainbows, and unicorns, this book is not for you. It is dark and oh so delicious. The ending shocked the living crap out of me. I was like…what!! 😳 I was on the edge of my seat the entire time and absolutely hooked from the beginning to the end. If you like dark, dirty-talking heroes, this book is for you. I love these Del Rossa men. Buckle up buttercup, you’re in for quite the ride. Whooooo!!! 😈❤️🔥😈❤️�
I feel like I've waited a thousand years for this book and it did not disappoint 😍 Isaia always interested me in the other Dark Sovereign books, but I never knew he'd be so absolutely OTT, but I am so here for it. He is everything I love in a MMC, just OTT and crazy. The "touch my girl and die" kinda guy, just pure yum!!
Also can we talk about Everly! My dream FMC is a book worm barista ( with V cards) but also feisty as fudge and it's like Bella J reached into my brain took this information and delivered the most perfect FMC to date. I absolutely adore Everly, especially how she can hold her own again Isaia. The banter between them was perfect ❤️
I read this book in one day and I don't regret a minute of it. I only regret that now I have to wait till April for the next one! Yes, be prepared as it does end in a cliffy 😭
I can't recommend this book enough, but please start with at the very beginning of the Dark Sovereign Series. As they're all so amazing 🤩
I’ve loved all the Del Rossa Brothers. But the one who intrigued and piqued my interest was Isaia. The brother who was different from his siblings. In subtle ways but with a big impact. And now his book is in my hands. Absolutely loved his story! What a complex and fascinating character he is. So much more to him than what meets the eye. Everly won me over right away. She’s sassy and feisty. Doesn’t back down. And is a strong willed young lady. She has a mind of her own and knows exactly what she wants and doesn’t want. The energy and vibe between her and Isaia is just so freaking intense and electrifying. Their chemistry is incredible and just keeps getting more powerful with each encounter. The passion and lust with them sizzles off the pages! Their story is fast paced, gripping and throughly captivating. And that cliffhanger is having me demand the next book, His Angel right now!
WOWW !! Not sure how I am really feeling about this book ...Isaia is a ball of fire !!A force to be reckoned with ...the youngest Del Rosa and yet .... has enough fire for Alexius Nicoli and Caelian put together in one big giant ball of flames. It is shocking how he destroys both men trying to form the ungodly alliance for the control of his deepest darkest love interest Everly ..he promised to kill anyone who dared to stand in the way of his love for her and my my ...did he do that in the most shocking way to bring this story to an abrupt end... not his best hour ..... but let's see how our poor damsel in distress lives up to her lie to Anthony which gets him sacrificed, and how Isaia finally gets to claim her for himself.
I recieved an Early Review Copy of this book from the author and I am leaving an honest, voluntary Review !!
WOW, who knew Isaia could be so dang hot, possessive, brutally savage with such a filthy mouth!. Well, he is a Del Rossa after all!
Everly is trying to live under the radar from her stepfather. Until she becomes front and centre on Isaia's radar.
Isaia becomes literally obsessed with the need to find out who Everly is and the more he learns the more he wants her.
“You think this is dark, Everly? You have no idea what darkness really looks like.� He steps closer. “What’s in those pages barely scratches the surface of what I could do to you.�
It's a dangerous game, but these two are freaking hot! The spice is off the charts with heat. The possessiveness from Isaia is on the borderline of madness. But all of this made his allure even greater.
I can't wait for more!
Just like the previous books in the Dark Sovereign series, I definitely recommend 👌
Back in the Dark Sovereign world with Isaia and to say his story is great would be an understatement! I completely adore Isaia, Evelyn and of course Luna. These characters are perfectly matched in every way. Evelyn is fantastic! She's strong and independent and definitely stands her ground with Isaia. Isaia is a Del Rossa through and through. He's possessive, obsessive and demanding just like his brothers and just like them he knows what he wants and goes after it. Their story is absolutely fantastic! It's intense, gritty and humorous and will definitely keep you glued to the pages. These Del Rossa guys just keep getting better and better. It does end on a cliffhanger so be prepared for that.
Don't Miss this Phenomenal Book! This is one of the best books I have read; Bella J has written an extraordinary Mafia story! I loved Isaia and Everly and when he meets Everly, that is all there is for him—a total obsession. Isaia: in his Armani suits, is good-looking, and nobody stops him when he makes up his mind, not even his older brothers. And he has made his mind up about Everly. He wants her, so he goes about getting her. The book is fast-paced and one that you will not put down. I loved everything about this story, even Luna, the basset hound. Bella J never disappoints with her books. I have read every book she has written, and this may be her best one yet. I was even in love with Isaia. This is a 5-star book.
Wow!! I have always been intrigued with Isaia and couldnt waiit for Bella to write his story and give us a peek and confirm what I knew. He is the best of the brothers!! Never quite comfortable in his role but loves his family and knows whats expected. The sunshinest of the bunch (yellow sports car😂) is probably the grittiest and darkest, they always are and Isaia did not disappoint. He will keep you panting, smiling, gasping, snarling but most of all turning the pages fast! Everly is the perfect one for him, a “tornado in a cup� and turns his world upside down. A wild steamy ride that you do not want to miss! As always if you are looking for normal or safe romance this isnt it, but if you like the gritty, sexy, edgy, firey, all consuming dive in!
Isaia is the youngest of the mafia Del Rossa brothers that make up the Dark Sovereign. He’s dark, broody, possessive, protective, bossy and brutal normally, but when it comes to Everly each trait becomes tenfold. Everly is on the down low because of her stepfather, who is the head of one of worst of the five Cosa Nostra families in NYC. Isaia just doesn’t care what he does, who he does it to and doesn’t care about consequences. I think he’s the darkest of the brothers. Everly is a strong woman and stands her ground against Isaia. A lot of action, twist and turns steam that run hot off the pages. The chemistry between these two can’t be denied. What a book! Can’t wait for the next one!
I have loved every book in the Dark Sovereign series and from the first introduction of Isaia have been anticipating his story. This extraordinary book has surpassed all my hopes with an amazing love for Isaia! I absolutely could not put this book down! It is gorgeously written (as all Bella J. books are) and never have I been more immersed in a story than this one. The slow yet scorching burn is all consuming and explodes into this epic love story with the most glorious spice scenes. The characters are incredible, the plot is exciting and emotional and the ending is a climax that leave you yearning for the next book. Isaia is truly a dark romance masterpiece, that not only is a must read but a must own treasure.
Isaia is good but finishes on somewhat of a cliffhanger, we are only part way through this story, he gets the girl, but at what cost? Pretty much until the end, this is a surprisingly easy to read, not particularly violent story of a chance meeting that almost seems fated despite the numerous hurdles that face Isaia and Everly. Once he sets his sights on Everly, she really doesn’t stand a chance, he is obsessed (unhinged) and full on barges into her life with little regard to locks or to the New York mafia families he puts the Dark Sovereign on the radar of. There is some light heartedness in the writing of this with the banter between the brothers. Caelian seems to live to get under his skin! Looking forward to seeing how this one finishes up.

When a Del Rossa brother sees something or someone they want, they normally gets it. Everly crosses Isaia's part and her life will never be the same again, it only gets more intense and dark dealing with a man of this caliber. But, Everly is not as innocent as she seemed either, she lies and have secrets of her own. Buckle up for this amazing ride, only Bella J can deliver !!!
