This was a disappointment because it's been on my TBR forever and my library finally picked it up. 

The cover is wildly mismatched to the story inside. It's a mafia romance which is not my thing. Hated that plot and how passive and doormat-y the FMC was most of the book. 

The MMC is not just grumpy but he's also a bully. He breaks her door down at one point! I think I've lost interest in this author.

Not sure how I felt about this one. For one thing, if you know someone named Ben but you think you could probably read this anyway, don’t bother. His name is said every other sentence, and twice that much during spicy scenes. Most romance books don’t say names during spicy scenes to avoid that awkwardness, but this one leans into it. 

The rest... The mob stuff was a little unrealistic in that Lola buries her head in the sand a bit. Her little sister is threatened more than once, and Lola never warns her? And then it all disappears and the problem is gone like magic. 

I do want to read more books in the series because I loved other works by this author and the set up for this story has me hooked. 

CW/TW: use of the word “daddy” during spicy scenes.

could write a whole essay on everything that infuriated me about this book (especially because the first two books were so!! good!!) but the fact that i am to believe the mmc is So concerned about women's safety but still 1. breaks into the fmc's bakery multiple times (he has a lock picking set) and 2. BREAKS DOWN HER DOOR when she didn't do what he asked her to do aka coming to his place. idk kinda ruined the whole small town romance vibe.
