Are you ready for a steamy romantic suspense? Wait not longer, this is the read for you. Damian realizes not long after setting eyes in Bryanna that she is the woman he’s been waiting for in this life. This book will leave you wanting more of Via Mari’s books, especially in this Billionaire Bodyguard series

A slow-ish burn romance with Dom/sub personalities.
What do you do when you’re hired to help someone and they don’t want to be helped? What do you do when you’re trying to just survive but someone is doing all they can to change that? And will it be for better or for worse?
I enjoyed that the narrator POV switched between Damien and Bryanna, so that we can get insight as to what each is thinking and feeling. I also enjoyed that we got some overlap of scenes from the other’s POV so to give more insight. I did sometimes feel like scenes were written quickly and could have been fleshed out to give more information, but it did not take away from the story and may have been more my inquisitive nature (I want to know more!). I appreciated the interaction that the secondary characters had, from Damien’s colleagues, to the others who were currently in Bryanna’s life.
Some trigger warnings of characters being drugged and prepared to be sold. Trafficking, and battling it, is a common theme throughout.
Note: Book 4, Relentless, basically occurs at the same time with a few cross references.

Auctioned (Billionaire Bodyguards Book 3): Dark Billionaire Mafia Romance by Via Mari
Three of the bodyguards have fallen and Matt’s story had been my favorite until I read this one.
Damian falls hard and fast when it come to Bryanna. I’m not sure if it was their circumstances or if he just knew she was the one. But we all know that love isn’t no matter the situation.
Bryanna is extremely brave and loyal, almost to a fault but she is fierce when her heart is all in.
I’m looking forward to getting time to continue reading this series and getting caught up.

Billionaire and Dark mafia you can bet your chickens that I was there for this book. I love those two tropes and once I read the description I was a goner. So this is the 3rd book in the series but can be read as a standalone all this book made me want to do is go back and read the rest of the series because your girl is intrigued.
I really liked the characters. Bryanna is the niece of a rich socialite and becomes caught up in a sex trafficking ring. As you can imagine the stakes are high and it does keep it very interesting and tense. Damian is part of the elite group of Billionaire bodyguards, when he is tasked to find Bryanna and he’s up for the challenge.
I really enjoyed reading this and I will be going to read the rest of the series by this author. Really enjoyed.

I was pulled in right from the beginning. Damian has been hired to find the niece of a Torzial. There is something about this girl that has Damian’s attention.
Bryanna was taken and her loved ones are being threatened if she doesn’t go along with what her captors want. Will Damian be able to save her? Will he keep his dominant side at bay or will he make her submit?
Overall this was a great read. We get suspense, steamy scenes, and so much more. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story. This book can be read as a standalone but I suggest reading from the beginning. The author does a great job with her writing, you feel like you are right there with the characters. I look forward to reading more from this author and series.

WOW What a fantastic read…i was on the edge of my seat the whole time and just could not put it down!
The leading lady of this story , Bryanna, is dragged into a dangerous and volatile situation in order to protect her family who she cares very deeply about. Along comes seriously dominant and deadly gorgeous Damian to find and rescue her. This is so not in her plans when she has her family to protect. Immediately Damian is not only wanting to protect Bryanna for the sake of his job but also because of his instant attraction to her. Bryannas very obvious submissive side calls to her brave protector.
i think the fact that there were times when i wanted to bop the main characters Damian and Bryanna up side the head for not just talking to each other, shows how creatively the wonderful Author Via Mari formed her characters to make us care about them. They have heart and depth that just makes you want to keep reading. The book presents both characters sides of the story all the way through giving us much better insight into the various situations that come along.
you will walk away from this book with a happy, full heart and begging for more.

Billionaire Bodyguards
Book 3
By Via Mari
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
Be prepared to read this full length novel. You will read about a romance built from a horrible crime. Let the bodyguards do their job! Not for those under 18, due to adult content.
This is Bryanna and Damian’s story. While Bryanna is strong and independent she finds herself in trouble. She will try to save herself while protecting her niece, nephew and mother. But we all know things can not be right when a young girl is kidnapped. Damian is a bodyguard who is assigned to find Bryanna and get her back. So if I tell you anymore, it will not let you read what I just read.
Via Mari has done it again. You are about to read this extremely intense romance. It will be one you won’t soon forget. I love the characters and their strength. This fast paced romance leaves nothing out. You will have suspense, romance, and a crime ring that needs to be stopped. Be prepared to have your emotions played with. I cried, got mad and cheered for the hero’s in this story. Please start on book 1. Get to know the rest of the bodyguards. This is a MUST READ SERIES. Well done Via Mari! Well Done!

Auctioned: Dark Billionaire Mafia Romance is the third book in the Billionaire Bodyguards series by Via Marie. I know I say this about most Via Marie’s books, but this is my new favorite. Via Marie is one of my must read authors and I enjoy all of her books. Auctioned follows Damian and Bryanna on a wild ride. This book is filled with action and adventure, suspense and danger, and wrapped up in romantic intrigue. This book had me reading long into the night, but it was well worth the lose of sleep. I can’t wait to see what Via will have in store for us next.
