Bad Intentions

Written by Tara Wyatt

Narrated by Amber Read

Everyone in Manhattan thinks they know everything there is to know about Lucian Prescott.

In his mid-forties, he’s a successful businessman, the founder and CEO of one of Manhattan’s largest hospitality companies, the Prescott Group. He’s sexy, rich, and one of the most eligible bachelors in the city. Very few people know just how dangerous he is. Because he’s also the head of the Kings of Hell’s Kitchen, a small, elite group of former mob members who are the lynchpin in Manhattan’s underground organized crime scene.

But Lucian has more secrets than just his criminal ties—like the fact that he’s been in love with Olivia Walsh for the past five years. Olivia, who is eighteen years younger than him and happens to be the daughter of Prescott Group’s biggest, most important investor. She’s completely off-limits, but that doesn’t stop him from wanting her. In his arms. His bed. His life.

He knows he needs to stay away from her, no matter how he feels about her—or how she feels about him. But staying away becomes impossible when Olivia’s ex—a man almost as dangerous as Lucian—begins stalking her, and he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe.

He’ll burn down the entire city to protect the only woman he’s ever loved.

Reviews for Bad Intentions

[Keshawnthomas87 · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

The story line was good, although predictable, but the narrator ruined it for me.

[John Lechner · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

The story was good, but the narration was just terrible. If it wasn’t a later book in a series I would not have listened to it.

[Nata Kis · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Would be a good book, but for the narrator! Can't even explain. The nasal and somehow robotic voice was really annoying

[FroskaPoska · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Out of the series so far, this has the spiciest, dirtiest scenes ;)

[Nirvana Doodla · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Loved the book, loved the characters, narrator was abit slow and for a mafia type book, but overall great

[Stefana Tzankova · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I really enjoy the whole series, but this is my favourite story so far! I love that the main characters are much more mature, self-aware and confident than the usual characters in these type of stories. It's so refreshing! The story line is interesting and I like the balance between suspense and pleasurable enjoyment while reading. I'll definitely listen to the book again some day:)

[jackie_holliday · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I’ve read this entire series out of sequence & this is by far my favorite book. I got the next book in the series left to go & I don’t know if it can top this book. I would totally re-listen to this book. Maybe I’ll actually read it, the second time around. So good!

Loves this series. Could not stop listening to it. Love to see the men in the books so dedicated to the women and family. Great storyline

[Judith Hanes · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This was the best book of the series. The age conflict between Olivia & the hero, which was of great concern in the earlier series, was easily overcome. The issue of the hero's association with the mob wasn't, and that, in my opinion, is what makes this book interesting.
