About this listen

The city's golden girl falls heart first into a dark underworld.

I want two things in life: to be the leading ballerina in my academy—

And Max Butcher…

A massive, tattooed boxer, and renowned thug.

And my very first crush...

I may be a silly little girl to him, but he's intent on protecting, possessing, and claiming me in every way—his little piece of purity.

But there is more to Max Butcher than the cold, cruel facade he wears like armour. I know; I saw the broken boy inside him one day when we were only children.

So, even as I stand in the shadows with him, as people get hurt... as people die… I refuse to let him believe he's nothing more than a piece in his Family's corrupt empire.

There is good inside Max Butcher, and I refuse to let him live in the dark forever.

Our Thing is book one in The Kids of The District series and has a happily for now with part two live. Part two has a happily ever after. This book features a powerful and moody hero and an endearing and determined heroine. Both main characters are possessive and fight for each other. It is a love story, with spice, steam, violence, and drama. Enjoy.

Dark and sweet

I love Cassidy. She's very charming and the kind of girl you would take a bullet for. Initially I didn't like Max. He is dry and curt but at least he's protective. Tony is hilarious. Brilliant series and can't wait for the next one - Cosa Nostra.

Cute story but narration is lacking

The story was cute, characters were funny. However the narration was really hard to listen to.

Epic❤️📖for the ages:Ballerina Girl&TheButcherBoy

Our Thing & Cosa Nostra Duet is a Grumpy Sunshine Australian Mafia Romance that took my heart on this deliciously suspenseful and steamy journey of the epic love story that is the Sweet Ballerina Girl and her Butcher Boy Menace and hooked me on from beginning to end and I just could not get enough!

Max Butcher and Cassidy Slater’s pulse-pounding and heart racing love story features:
❤️Sweet ballerina heroine
❤️Mafia Heir
❤️Sweet & Spicy
❤️Man of few words
❤️Only has a smile for her
❤️ Disrespect her and die
❤️ He enjoys EVERY part of her
❤️He calls her little one
❤️She's a good girl with the whole world at her feet.
❤️He's a bad boy with his foot on the world.

From the very first Chapter, I absolutely loved Cassidy: her sweet and selfless nature.
I loved her relationship with her sister, and especially her best mate Tony: Oh my giddy Aunt: Tony had the best lines and banter I really loved their friendship.

These 2 are total opposites Cassidy the sweet, petite Ballerina and Max the tough possessive Alpha Mafia Heir. Their worlds are poles apart, but the more they fall for one another, the more Cassidy gets pulled into Max’s world. The more Max tries to protect Cassidy from being pulled deeper in his
world, the more she pushes back.

Oh Max, (in a Cassidy voice), the tough mafia heir, who was born into a life he didn’t choose, growing up in the face of brutality, learning and experiencing first hand, from a very young age the darkness and evil that lurks in humanity.
The playboy, never looking to settle, who met his match in Cassidy: who melted his heart and in doing so, Max melted mine into a puddle…he’s such a swoonfest with her, so possessive and all consuming, which is how I would describe this duet: This story will reach into your chest and rip out your heart, but Nicci will delicately stitch it back together, owning a piece of your heart forever.
Max totally broke me though: in the best way: his all-consuming love for Cassidy: chapter 34 of Cosa Nostra absolutely destroyed me…and like Cassidy: I love Max Butcher: Menace.

Nicci gave us an epic love story full of passion, and super steamy, spicy but not without the angst: it seems like many of my unicorn authors, Nicci likes to torture you, in the best way: she’s given us this gritty Australian Mafia Romance that is so dark and delicious that you never want to leave.
Cassidy and Max’s journey to HEA was full of emotion, steam and spicy and had me reaching for the fan and blushing! Take note tho: this is a gritty dark romance, so check your triggers.

Georgia Hart and Rupert Channing narrate this audiobook and I really enjoyed their performances and were fantastic in bringing the Ballerina and the Butcher Boy to life!
Georgia’s portrayal of Cassidy was kind, pure, driven and determined to get her man and I fell hard for her sweet and gentle disposition.

Rupert really turned up the grumpy and bossy in his performance and really showcased Max’s possessive and protective side so perfectly in this performance. But Georgia’s Cassidy wasn’t having any of that, she portrayed Cassidy’s determination to stand with Max and be part of his world and I couldn’t help but fall hard for her feistiness wrapped in her sunshine persona. Both narrators really turned up the intensity in their performance and Max & Cassidy’s chemistry: oooft!

I loved this duet: If you’re a fan of a Hot Australian Dark Mafia Romance with a Grumpy possessive Mafia heir with a penchant for sweet Sunshine Ballerina’s, then you will love this Duet! This is a deliciously dark and emotional story from an absolute genius author, performed by wonderful voice actors: All the menacing & giddy stars!

Good story bad narration

I'm Australian but even for me this bogan accent given to characters is just too much.

The story is great though
