The Sweetest Oblivion by Danielle Lori

mikuwu's review against another edition

Problematic author!

Book itself is a solid 3.5 stars. It had the spice and the fluff. I usually don’t enjoy mafia series but I might pick up the second one bc it has Christian in it.

Reread 2023:
I love how hard Nico fell for Elena once he finally met her. He couldn't help it. He saw her, wanted her, and claimed her.

"I would make this girl want me, need me, love me, because fuck if I was going it alone."

"The worst had happened. I loved the fucking woman. And now my biggest weakness walked outside my body, with soft brown eyes and long black hair. There were a lot of men who would love to hit me in my weak spot; the reason I had never wanted the vulnerability. But what I didn’t expect was this calmness to come with it, this surety that I would fucking die before I let them."

Original Review:

I loved this! I loved Nico, OMG he is yummy. The tension, gahhhh. I will probably read and reread it so many times in the future.

I liked this book Nico & Elena were  cute together i liked all there scenes together this book is spicy with a happy ending and no cliff hangers I do wish there was a little more to the ending the ending did feel rushed but other than that it was good and there was no cheating or love triangles some of the tropes are Forbidden Romance, Arranged Marriage, Enemies to Lovers and many more i loved Nico’s Jealousy and Possessiveness but overall i rated this book 4 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I liked this book. I love a good arranged marriage romance book. There was definitely plot twists in the book which made it fun and kept me on my toes. I loved their ending & how he basically was a simp the whole time. Elena and Nico slayed HAHA okay but the fact that he burned an entire gas station because the cashier slapped her butt SLAY

Hvor skal jeg starte. Sånn jeg dør for denne boka har lest mye bra bøker men ingen ingen er som denne. Sånn Nico nam og hvordan han er cold heart i det ene minuttet og dør for henne i det andre. Love love. Beste boka ever❤️

I loved this! I loved the slow burn and that it wasn’t painfully slow. I loved the character development. I loved that Nico and Elena got their happy ending (as well as Adrianna). I loved the “hates everyone but her” trope. I loved how things worked out and they ended up together even when I definitely thought they wouldn’t. Loved it all!

Girl from an opposing rival mafia family has an electric attraction to her sister’s fiancé (not that her sister had any say in the matter.) Don’t mind me, I’m just practicing my Italian.
