The Butchers of the London mob, who run an empire built on sin and greed. The stories I’ve heard about the way they rule their underworld are enough to make my heart race. But those rumors have nothing on the truth.

Danny, Church, Frank. The three men who own me now. The head of this so-called kingdom and the two savages who enforce his wrath.

They made a peace deal with my family, which came at a cost—me. A mafia princess gifted to them as a bride.

So here I am in my white dress with a gun to my head and a knife in my garter.

I won’t become their plaything. I won’t become their prize.

The war between our families might have ended with this union, but I’m starting a battle of my own. And I’ll trade my body for a chance to leave this wedded bliss behind.

The only question left is whether they’ll be the ones bleeding out, or if I’ll end up with my heart torn from my chest and fed to these hungry British dogs.

This is a dark mafia romance where the main character will end up with more than one love interest and is part of a series of stand-alone books, Mafia Wars.

Out of all of the books in this series , this one was edgier; more descriptive in character persona and complexities (which is why Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti are two of my most read authors the past 8 months/11/2yrs.) It's got just the right amount of grit and smut without being gory and distasteful.
In a world of crime and deceipt ; only a woman with TRUE GRIT will conquer, I also really appreciated the length of this book! All books should be this long....they used to be!?

TITLE: Forget-Me-Not Bombshell
GENRE: Dark Romance
AUTHOR: Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti
TROPE: Mafia, Why-Choose
TYPE: Stand-alone (Mafia Wars Book 5)
POV: Multiple POV
MY RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ / 5

Forget-me-not Bombshell is a why-choose, dark mafia standalone romance in the Mafia Wars series. It has all the dark and zany characters I would expect with a book written by the "twisted sisters." Anya is a mafia princess offered up in an arranged marriage to the Butchers to secure a peace deal and end the Mafia Wars. Benny Butcher is seeking revenge on his twin brother Danny after he betrayed him. Danny Butcher is Benny's identical twin, who is a psychopath and is about to marry Anya. Church is Benny's closest friend and somewhat of a nut-job, and Frank is Anya's bodyguard and trusted inner circle of Danny. I found that the storyline moved along quickly and kept my interest. Don't worry; the ending will not have a cliffhanger. I recommend checking trigger warnings. I am giving a rating of 4 / 5 Stars.

I read all these lovely ladies books and let me tell you, I was immensely happy that I got the HEA in one book. (There are a few heartstoppping moments that we are used to throughout the book, don't you worry)

I love Mafia RH Novels and this series as a whole has been awesome. But this book, this book was amazing. I loved all the Guys, the twists and turns were great and the FMC took absolutely no BS. If you are looking to settle in for wild ride that will keep you guessing. This book is perfect for you!

I have enjoyed this series but this one takes the top spot! Caroline and Susanne really are the best at combining dark, violent and hilarious. Anya is my favorite kind of heroine who is ka, tough but also 'real'. So many great characters and names...the butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker! Marco-interpol-polo. The Czar. John Boy and his unremarkable face. I just absolutely loved this book!!!

Hilarious, captivating read!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 5, 2022

Forget Me Not Bombshell has been the Mafia Wars book I've been the most excited for and let me tell you they did not disappoint! I was hooked from the very first page and it was really nice to read a book where the main setting was based in Britain for once. The dedication at the beginning is incentive enough for you to read it if only to have some fun decoding the British Cockney Slang. It set the tone nicely having for Anya's story which had me belly laughing from the start.

Anya Volkov is the next woman to be forced to marry her enemy in the name of peace and she is the character I connected the most with. I loved her fight, her attitude and that she had her boys in the harem wrapped around her finger from day one.

Church is my favourite of the harem guys, he just called out to my soul and I felt the most connection to him. His devotion, though some would say obsession, to his country had me in stitches.

I wasn't sure what to expect from the Butcher Boys, but I immediately saw Benny for the over-confident, arrogant, cocky alpha male that he was. Although it was unfair, I did enjoy seeing him knocked down a peg or two by certain events.

This was a truly captivating read well worth the 5 stars and worth the read if only to find out who Barkley is and why Church is so concerned about him.

Forget-Me-Not Bombshell (Mafia Wars #5)

I have been looking forward to the #twistedsisters addition to the Mafia Wars, I know their style so I was exciting to see what they'd come up with!👍 It is much grittier than the other books in the series so far. It felt a bit like I watching a Guy Richie film, but reading it in book format instead. It takes you all over London, with the Butcher Boy's gang who secretly head up The Firm!

Danny is the younger of the identical twin Butcher brothers, while Benny, the oldest, is behind bars. Anya is from the Russian Bratva out of Las Vegas. She was set to marry Benny Butcher, but as he's in prison she'll have to wed his psycho twin Danny, instead! She's no shrinking violet but what she's heard of him has her worried, he doesn't seem to have any limits to his violence! She'll take him on though, no one is taking her freedom and thinking they rule her! What none of them have learned is that Benny has earned early release, it's on their wedding day and he has plans. He's had eight years in prison to figure out who set him up and why! He has planned his vengeance with the help of his boy Church, and together they'll get his crown back, prove his innocence to the Firm and especially Frank, and they'll take down everyone in his way - It will all start at the church!👰💥

The glimpses of London throughout this book are amazing, they've done it complete justice. She is a centuries old city that continues to grow and change, and that was described beautifully! The characterizations are well rounded and each person is clearly defined & individual. The sisters can write great, likeable psycho's, but Danny isn't one of them, he's completely unhinged, still amazingly written though!😳

In my opinion, I did find this book to be too long. I felt some parts could have been sacrificed to tighten up the story and especially the reading time! Personally, I would've removed the entire Czar storyline, it just felt excessive, and I found myself skipping through those parts.😕

This book, faults included, was a really compelling read. It had plenty of twists and betrayals, wrongs that need to be set right and shocks & surprises right until the end. Benny is the complete Alpha with a heart, Church has such a 'cheeky chappy' personality that I loved from the start. His attachment to all things British was sweet, his reason was hilarious! Frank loves deep, has muscles for days but holds a grudge like no other. He wasn't my favourite of the trio, he was so quiet and grumpy! Anya becomes the woman that loves them all equally, brings them closer together and helps them all laugh and love as family - eventually!💘 None of them shy away from the violence of their world, when it's needed. But they do love to wind each other up with some hilarious consequences! They are known as the 'forget me nots' and are a fascinating bunch. I did love Dylan, he was a right 'boss bitch' in his pantsuits & heels! He was hard as nails but as kind as your Nan.💞
I'm really looking forward to the final book in this crossover world of the Mafia Wars, I wonder which Author will eventually come out on top?🌟

Just like the other books in this series, this book is phenomenal. With each book that’s been released, I’ve been getting more and more excited for this and it did not disappoint.
Reading Ruining Dahlia had left my mind spiralling with theories especially after seeing the authors TTs’ about this book. Everything I imagined was nowhere near as close and yet I loved this book all the more for it. Caroline and Suzanne has completely blown me away with these amazing characters, and a brilliant plot with twists you never saw coming. I LOVED Anya, she is amazing and everything I love in a FMC and the guys are drool worthy and will make you fall completely in love with them. The scenes are soooooo hot…. I will never look at an amplifier the same again!
Also the stuff about John Boy had me cracking up throughout the book.
Definitely recommend!

I loved loved loved this book!
Caroline and Susanne always do amazing reads but it was just brilliant to read something by them set in London. I particularly enjoyed the 'I've been theres' and understanding the cockney rhyming slang!
As always with these authors it's brilliantly written, has a superb plot with lots of action and great character building and development.
Anya was a brilliant lead and I loved reading about her falling in love with London, along with the men! There was some great humour, particularly from Church and his love of Blighty! Then Frank and his amazing tune selection!
I loved reading the points of view from the particularly evil Danny. It was great to then read from his twin Benny and see the difference between them!
I would definitely recommend Forget me Not Bombshell!

I was anxiously awaiting Caroline and Susanne’s input for this amazing mafia wars series and they did not disappoint. These are two sisters who always hit the mark with RH, manage to tug on your heart strings, laugh your toosh off and push you over cliffs (even when it’s a standalone 😅) even my inside reading voice was speaking in cockney!
This book is thicc but in the best ways, it almost felt like reading a whole series in one and I genuinely loved the ending so so much.
Highly recommend anyone on the fence to read this and the other books forming the mafia wars series - they’re all stand-alone by different authors that are 🥵 and also *chefs kiss*
Ps… thank you so much for squeezing in the word that rhymes with swollocks…. Really made my day!
