Summary
Jinta
He’s a yakuza with secrets. I’m the reporter determined to bring them to light.
When people start going missing, I sense a story that could make my whole career. I even have the perfect suspect: Raiden Noboru, enforcer for the most powerful yakuza organization in Japan.
The plan is simple: go undercover as "Hiro" the photographer, cozy up to Raiden, and discover all he knows about the disappearances.
Problem is? Raiden isn't the monster I thought he was. The beast beneath his skin is fiercely protective of what's his, but he worships my body and soul, showing me a tender side of himself he hides from the rest of the world.
But I've got a story to tell. All I have to do... is betray the man I'm falling for.
Raiden
I stopped believing in fated mates long ago. Love only ends in heartbreak.
Ever since I was a boy, my only purpose has been to serve the Namikawa-kai.
Until him. The minute I see Hiro smile like a sunbeam and catch his cherry blossom scent, I've got to have him. What I thought would be a casual fling becomes so much more. Hiro is mine. Mine to care for, mine to protect. No one else can have him.
Before I realize it, I'm beginning to dream of a life outside the yakuza, a life with Hiro. Too bad that’s all it’ll ever be. A dream. I’ll never make someone as innocent as Hiro happy. I’m a criminal, and I’m no good for him…
…But I can’t stay away from him.
Secrets & Sake is book 1 in A Paranormal Yakuza Duet. It features insta-love, fated mates and wolf shifters, a sunshine undercover reporter and the grumpy yakuza soft only for him, loads of possessive touch-him-and-die vibes, plenty of searingly hot spice, and a Happy-For-Now conclusion.

I really liked Jinta. The reporter who never gets to tell the important stories. Then he gets a lead on a big one and goes undercover to ferret out the truth. He only has to cozy up to Raiden and he believes everything will be solved.
Raiden doesn’t realize “Hiro” is a journalist. He just thinks the young man is a talented photographer. And it’s lust from first sight – for both of them. Raiden’s an enforcer. It’s a nasty job. But he’s in deep with the gang and there’s no escape.
Until the night it all goes wrong.
The question was, of course, would the bond they’d formed get them through the crisis or would they forever be parted? The story has a happily for now, so I got my answer. It’s a duo, though, so I’m really looking forward to the second half.
Nick Cracknell is a new to me narrator but I have to stay he did a stellar job with all the accents. With the different voices. He truly made the story the best it can possibly be. That’s what makes a great narrator. I can’t wait for the conclusion of Raiden and Jinta’s story.
Wow

Discover a unique blend of shifter-fated mates and Mafia in this MM romance. What more could you ask for out of a book?
As a newcomer to both the author and the narrator, I embarked on this literary journey with no preconceived notions. To my delight, I found myself captivated by the story from the very beginning.
We meet Jinta (Hiro), a journalist and a human who is unaware that shifters even exist. He's a disappointment to his family and is looking for a big story to make them proud, but he unearths far more.
Raiden, part of the Yakuza organisation, is a powerful enforcer and werewolf shifter.
When the two meet, Raiden feels the pull but ignores it.
Despite their undeniable connection, Jinta and Raiden face insurmountable obstacles that threaten to keep them apart.
It's a well-written book, enjoyable, and with good character depth. I enjoyed the world-building that helped me envision the book and its characters.
Nick Cracknell did a great job narrating this book. He brought the characters to life and made the experience enjoyable. I would recommend this book.
