Scarred Regrets: A Dark Mafia Romance (Bellandi Crime Syndicate, #5)

by Adelaide Forrest

Broken men don’t fall in love.

We linger in the darkness, consumed by the sins that define us.

Irina is the sole reason my heart beats. She’s everything that matters in a world filled with evil that a woman so good and pure should never have to see.

She’ll add another scar to my collection — this one engraved on my heart.

When she’s taken by our enemy to use for his vengeance. Even knowing she can never be mine, I’ll stop at nothing to see her safe.

The Irina I rescue isn’t the same feisty woman they stole.

Her soul is broken. Her heart is hollow like mine, because of the things she’s seen. She needs me in a way I’ve never known.

And I will destroy the man who shattered what’s mine.

Scarred Regrets is a full-length standalone romance, but the series presents a better reading experience when following the suggested order.

This series contains dark elements, including over-the-top antiheroes who do as they please. Read at your own discretion.

Outstanding!

This book is possibly my favourite in the series. It's definitely on par with book 3 and Rafael and Isa's story!

Throughout the book, my heart was pounding!! I could not put it down and I devoured it!

This book has many DARK moments, but god is it worth it.

Scar we have already established a relationship with as he's been with us for such a long time, and we knew he had scars. But how deep they really were, and his past?
Blew. my. Mind.

Irina is possibly my new favourite female heroine in history.
I loved her, and to see her overcome everything after being so broken, to become my kind of heroine, she reminded me a little of Isa and what I loved about Isa I love about Irina.
They are both willing to swing the axe and bathe in the blood of vengeance. Just... Pure chef's kiss that!

I really can't wait to read Calix book, I feel we've been teased for ages haha. And it was nice to see Ifa again (yes I'm just gonna write it how it's pronounced haha) and their book I can imagine will be when hopefully the war with the Irish in Chicago comes to an end.

You could FEEL it coming in this book, and it's pure adrenaline.

I can't recommend this book enough.
This whole series has kept me reading and on my toes full out.
