Actually a reread. I just remembered how messed up the characters (nikolai) are and how cute landon and brandon's  relationship was, totally forgot how cute nikolai was with brandon. This really makes me want to read mia and landon's story, but he's a certified psycho, so idk

I absolutely loved this book. Nikolai and Brandon were everything. They are my absolute favorite couple from this series. 

The mental health representation in this book was amazing. I can't tell you how much I cried while reading this. 

My thoughts on Landon have also changed after reading this. I didn't dislike him as much of at all now that I've read this. I loved seeing him and Brandon reconnect and become close again. 

I also really loved the scene where Nikolai and Landon join forces at the end when it truly mattered. I just can't hate Landon now that I've read and understand why he was so distant with his siblings(mainly with Brandon).

I probably have more I can say about this. But I can't put it all into words. But just know that I devoured this book. I did not want to put it down at all. I can't recommend this enough. But absolutely check the triggers before reading.

I enjoyed the characters in this book (especially Nikolai) but the plot and execution were lacking. Nikolai was funny and absolutely unhinged, which worked as a perfect opposition to the closed-off, repressed Bran. Nothing about Nikolai's approach was healthy or acceptable, but that's given in a dark story like this. Although the mafia theme was rather ridiculous, especially when you compare the blurbs of the other books in the series (God of Fury is the only one that I've read) to the actual characters in the background. :D Let's take Killian, who's depicted as a dangerous monster wherever you look, and what he does in the background of this book is mostly cuddle and kiss his girlfriend. All the killing, torturing, and violence is mostly on the periphery (

except things like Grace's death which was another level of unhinged, and not in a good way

). Some emotions were very surface-level, especially on Bran's side (surprisingly). There were moments when I was wondering whether it was inspired by "For The Fans" in some way, especially

Bran's staring at a mirror, "not your baby", repressed trauma that makes you conceal your sexuality, the new Instragram photos every day, the "bimbo" character and so on

.

Most of the "dark" characters seemed rather playing at mafia than actually being a part of it, and the book could have been half of its length if the author got rid of all the repetitions and unnecessary scenes, but being in Nikolai's head was so funny, and I liked how they opened up to one another in the end.

This book deserves an infinite amount of stars. Holy shiiiiiit I love this series so damn much. It seriously has a chokehold on me. Rina takes you on a complete rollercoaster of emotion throughout this book.
Watching Nikolai and Brendan's relationship bloom, to see how hard they love each other and how they calm each other during their storms is just… gah! Chef's kiss!!!!
Niko's tattoo for Brandon 😍
Brandon and Landon's conversation at the hospital 🥰
White mask finally revealed 🤯
I cannot believe this is Rina's first MM romance. She fucking killed it!
To sum up, I loved it. It was romantic, heartbreaking, beautiful and at times a true rom-com. Who knew Niko could bring out the funny!?
EVERYONE HAS TO READ THIS BOOK!!!!!!!
