STONE : CARRERA FAMILY BOOK 1 Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 429 ratings

A Dark Mafia romance.

They gave her to another. Now I'm taking her back...

Stone

My very existence was created on a lie. The man I believed I was doesn’t exist.
The only thing real in my life is her.
My sister.
When my obsession is about to be discovered, she’s taken from me and gifted to another.
I question my family’s loyalty and find it shrouded in secrets and lies.
What if they’re not my family after all? What if they’re the enemy?
I have a side to choose, and once again, I find myself not knowing who I am.
All I know is, I choose her.

Sienna
I’ve loved him from the moment I set eyes on him.
My family called him Stone because he was unfeeling, yet I saw beyond his solid structure and broke down his stone walls until he crumbled.
They stole me away from him, all in the name of La Familia.
But what if his very existence is shrouded in secrets and lies?
What if he’s not the man we know him to be?
What if he isn’t my brother after all?
Secrets have a way of surfacing. They can tear you apart from the inside out—break and destroy you—but secrets can also set you free.

This is a Dark Mafia Romance. Some scenes may be upsetting. Please see author website for content breakdowns.

A PASSIONATE WRITER OF DARK ROMANCE

I’m not afraid to push the boundaries in my writing. My dark, jealous, possessive heroes will have you in a chokehold while leaving you craving for more.

I love to write stories drowning in dark romance, and laced in spice that will make you question your morals. You’ll love every minute of reading about the possessive men who would burn the world down for you, then have you screaming their name amongst the ashes.

My aim is to incorporate darkness into the romance world while offering readers a place of solace.

Finally stepping out of the shadows in 2021, I released my first book, ‘Cal’ with the support of TL Swan and her Cygnets.

Otherwise known as ‘Becky,’ I currently reside in the UK with my husband and our two teenage sons, along with our three adorable fur-babies.

I enjoy nothing more than immersing myself in my writing cave and delivering deliciously, dark stories for my Reckless Readers.

"We’re drowning in a sea of darkness, but our darkness binds us. It shows our devotion, it makes us complete." Cole - Brutal Secrets.

    Never in my life have I been so afraid to pick up a book! I knew it would hurt to read this, but the journey Stone takes us on, as painful as it is, was amazing! The lost one finally returned to the family he deserves with the woman he loves! Did I need a break to breathe through the rage and sorrow? Oh god yes! But I loved every second of it!

    Some parts of this were dark and hard to take but stone and sienna were so full of light.

    Stone went through so much and lived surrounded by lies. I’m so happy he got his happy ending.

    Sienna does what she can to protect Stone from a young age. She’s powerless for all of it but she’s there by his side after it all.

    BJ Alpha pours so much into her books. So it was no surprise to me that this book was an emotional journey. The things that Stone went through in his life. The lies, secrets, and betrayals he endured. I cried multiple times reading this book, and I was so happy with the ending that I cried happy tears during the last chapter. I can't wait to see what she gives us in her next book.

    I love all BJ Alpha books. Stone is character that I know will be loved! But the story could have been more than what it was. Lots of jumping around and too much of the background story. Nothing about how he lost his memory and how everything became to be is there. I hate that. The moments between his real brothers and his family, or the moments with Sienna? That part I liked but I wanted so much more.

    Wow! I seriously don't know how to put into words just how much I loved this story. Stone and Sienna were absolutely made for each other, and you could feel their love and devotion flowing off the pages. Their story is one that will draw you in from the very beginning, have you holding your breath waiting for what will happen next, and then leave you with a teary smile at the end. Speaking of tears, this story is sure to put you through an emotional ringer. It had my heart breaking, made me so angry that I had to actually make myself calm down, and lets not forget how the heat burned me from the inside out! This is a gut wrenching love story filled with action, devotion, betrayal, and a blessedly wonderful hea!

    Okay so can we just say it now that Stone is literally my favorite O’Connell brother?! This man is just WOW! The way he claims Sienna just screams red flag but I mean red is literally my favorite color. They way it all went down just blew my mind and I am still trying to wrap my head it. Oh and just wait until you see who reunites Stone with his brothers because it totally went over my head the first time they’re mentioned and then the way I squealed in excitement LOL. I cannot wait Azrael’s story next even though I didn’t expect to feel that way about him.

    Holy canoli this book was amazing but so are all of BJ’s other books. I was definitely not expecting the twist in this book. The spice is freaking phenomenal and spicey!!! Stone and his half sister are in love with each other and are each other’s life lines in the evils they grew up in. Stone is made into a stone cold human and the only person who can make him crumble is Sienna. They aren’t supposed to want each other but sometimes you can’t help love lol. Please check your trigger warnings if you have any. Thank you BJ for another amazing book!

    Oh Ms. Alpha, Becky, oh thank you!!! Stone was magnificent, amazing, heartbreaking, heart healing, brutal, violent, emotional. I can be honest that I had some trepidation going in to Stone, I was not sure if I could read a super taboo book. But I do trust BJ Alpha, and her characters are always so well written and so real. I am so glad that I jumped in! Everyone who knows me, knows I love Bren, he is my most favourite character that BJ Alpha has imagined in existence. Well Stone has taken that spot. I love Stone, and I love who Stone becomes. BJ Alpha made me scream like a child on Christmas, especially when characters from my favourite Devotion series make a very crucial appearance. And when the O’Connells arrive like avenging angels, I knew everything was going to be okay. I loved Stone from start to finish, I hated having to the a responsible adult and put the book down to go to work!!! My heart broke and the brutality that Stone endured made me cry. Once again, BJ Alpha healed my soul and all is right in the world. Do not miss this book. I do recommend you read the Brutal Devotion series and the O’Connell series before reading Stone, you will not be disappointed!!!!

    My gosh, I cannot begin to describe the pain and heartbreak I endured reading this book.

    I cried so much for the pain he suffered and screamed and cried happy tears when he found out who he really was!

    I was shocked to say the least and didn’t see that coming. I knew he wasn’t a carrera right from the start but to find out he was Keenan made me so happy and sad for him.

    Another amazing book written by my favourite author of all time!

    This is the first book I’ve read by BJ Alpha and really love her writing style. I didn’t get bored and every page you turn is interesting.

    Trigger warns should be read. The MMC has endured a lot of pain and suffering and although it kept saying brother and sister love I just knew that’s not the case here and that the FMC and MMC are not related.

    A lot of secrets are kept from Stone and it was good to know that Azrael had Stone and Sienna’s back.

    Lost family is found with happily ever after for both main characters which they both deserved.
