Destined to take my place at the head of the family, and to be the ruler of our world.
Finally, I was crowned King, with the criminal world at my feet, I take what I want, when I want it.
My name is revered, but there is one thing that I desire - have to have - but will never attain, no matter how hard or dirty I fight.
Bailey Roach is the woman I crave, the woman who should be in my bed. She's the queen I want to rule beside me, and I've loved her for most of my life. But she's also my best friend's sister and I swore to him that I would never touch her, never let the evil and chaos in my world taint hers.
Despite the promise I made, she is all I can think about, and the pain of wanting what I can't have is now my greatest weakness. Her hold on me has the potential to turn my world upside down and destroy everything I've worked for. Worse than that, she has the power to rip my heart and soul apart... yet, I have to have her.
When need engulfs you, it can only lead to disruption.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2021I really enjoyed this book was a great story about Irish Mafia which made a changed from the norm
The charterers were great you really got to know them a bit dark and gritty but with hot steamy screens as well , just hope the other characters get to tell their stories as well because there’s so much more to come

*Warning this book has a lot of triggers.*
Disruption is a forbidden romance and had all the makings for a great book. There was betrayal, revenge, twists, sex, drama, chaos, etc. But unfortunately, even with all the potential, it still fell flat.
Zane was supposed to be this intimidating, all action, take no crap, cruel and feared criminal boss. But we never actually seem him in all his glory. We see his rage being unleashed for one or two times max, otherwise everyone else in the story seemed to be the ones doing all the intimidating, taking all the action, and instilling all of the fear.
Bailey was a contradiction. She was nothing but a hot mess. All she did was play games and actually ruin her own life. For wanting, and supposedly loving Zane, she had a funny way of showing it. She was more selfish then anything. She was disloyal, a trader, and a liar.
Their story will give you whiplash. They are so hot and cold and their relationship really makes no sense. I kept waiting for someone to come to their senses. I was waiting for Zane to have an epiphany based on his mother's wisdom that she left with him, yet he never even reflected on it once.
The story seemed like it was going to lead to a series with a possible book for Jameson and Bishop, but we find out about where Bishop is in life and what he's up to. In fact we know more about Bishop's happily ever after instead of Zane. And we are left wondering what happens to Jameson and what actually went down between Baily and Zane. After investing all our time reading we are pretty much left with nothing.
Basically, I was left with more questions then answers. What happened to Micky? What happened with Jameson? What happened to Bella? What happened between Zane and Bailey? We never got to hear how they mended bridges and after every thing that happened we deserved better then what we got in that epilogue.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2021Zane has worked his way up in the ranks to finally he called boss in the family business. He is in love with his best friend’s (Jameson) sister, Bailey. He promised Jameson that he would never touch her. Between running his business, which is first in his priorities, and trying to not to break his promise, his life is complicated.
Opinion
Ok, I like mafia romances. Thus one though? It brought to the forefront the darker side of what they presumably do. The chosen job is one that turns my stomach. For this reason alone, I dropped the star rating to a four instead of a five. Do I know that the mafia is full of misdeeds? Yes. But this particular business was somewhat important to the story.
Victoria Johns is the queen of the dark side. Having read other books if hers, I am familiar with her twisted writing style, and I love it! The characters are realistic. The situations are something plausible in real life. There is always an element of surprise and certainly a compulsion to finish the book as quickly as I can.
Even though I wasn’t happy about the one element, I still think this was a great book and would certainly suggest it to lovers of dark romance.
Many thanks to Bare Naked Words for providing me with an ARC of this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2021My dark heart has well and truly been sated.
Not having read anything by Victoria Johns before, I guess you could say I went in completely blind. Admittedly I was lucky enough to read the blurb, and from that, the decision made with certainty. I needed this book to read, just as much as I needed air.
And why?
Because this girl is an absolute fan of all things dark and sinfully twisted, and I was sure that Disruption would give me that and so much more.
Now as I sit here, after completing it, I’m so conflicted. I’m actually warring with my own emotions.
Again you ask why?
Because I wanted to hate Zane. I wanted to hate everything the guy stood for. A monster with a dark soul, he was completely ruthless and made no apology for inflicting pain and making a living from it.
I mean the guy is a danger to anyone who stands in front of him. He was calculating, measured and just pure evil.
But I fell in love.
Guys I fell in love with the devil, and I loved every single minute of it.
And Bailey, the calm to Zane’s storm, as much as I didn’t want to like her either, I did. I fell for her fears and her vulnerabilities. I fell in love with her confidence and her drive.
Yeah look I wanted to hate them both, but I just couldn’t, and that right there is enough to know that Disruption is a read that in my eyes is completely perfect.
For the lovers of all things dark, who love twisted and depraved, who love all things sinfully delicious, Disruption is for you.
Such a devastatingly beautiful read.
It’s a 5 star from me.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2021Victoria Johns, I'm not sure how I've never read you before, but I will be rectifying that mistake for the foreseeable future. You are absolutely the QUEEN of DARK!
Amazing writing, the world building in this was absolutely top notch, the dark side to this book actually pushed my boundaries and I found myself oddly captivated by it all.
Zane Teague wants to be feared, desired, and wants the very things he isn't supposed to have including the stunning Bailey Roach. He is destined to become the ruler and King to the Teague Mafia and will have all the riches of being a ruler, but Bailey is off limit to him because she is his best friends sister.
Your emotions are going to go through a rollercoaster ride, prepare yourselves to see and feel the pain, hurt, lust and love through these characters eyes. Promises can cost you a lot and you'll see that during this dark read. Job well done!

5.0 out of 5 stars Her best yet!
Wow, what can I say about this book from Victoria Johns. I think it has to be her best to date. The darkness, the intrigue and the sex are all off the charts. She really knows how to write a bad man - notice I didn't say boy, as Zane is everything manly. He's mean, dark, moody and extremely sexy and is exactly what a H in this genre should be like. As for Bailey, I love that she is strong and forceful, yet has deep insecurities that cause her to make mistakes. Zane is her nemesis in love and vice versa which makes for an amazingly powerful love story. There aren't pages and pages of back and to between them - the sort that makes you want to bang the two leads heads together, there is just enough. Enough that you have to turn each page to find out what happens next. Without giving anything away, I found the ending extremely powerful and I think Victoria Johns did a fantastic job of breaking our hearts before putting them back together again. Fully recommend this book and fingers crossed we get another book from this brilliant cast of characters.
