WOW WOW WOW. i knew from friends that this one would have much more of everything (smut, violence, action) than book 1 AND I CAN CONFIRM. i had the best time reading this - getting to witness elena grow into even more of a badass was AMAZING. she is ultimate book gf material right there. the found family vibes in this duet is UNmatched - i want to be apart of that family so bad. i love when couples are badass together and fight together, and elena&dante are the perfect example of that. i HIGHLY recommend this duet, but please please please check the CW. this is a dark, mafia romance, and it deals with some very heavy topics (cw listed below!)
