Sooooooo in my review of the previous book I was like oh Remo isn't that bad -- WRONG, so wrong I am a dipsh*t.

The redeeming parts of this book - how long the ending was/just getting to see everyone interact. Seraphina and the other two/seeing Remo interact with those three. Seeing a mafia princess actually take action/stand up. The time jumps/pacing (it was a bit weird but I liked it because it wasn't normal so it added a bit of intrigue to the story).

The bs parts of this book - the constant threat of rape and how the other men that we came to like through their own stories weren't going to step in or speak up or do anything (makes me not like them now either). All the talk of shame and view on women that was actually never addressed/overcome. Remo. Just him. And how they appeased Danilo's family was fucking WEIRD. Also Adamo deserved better and Savio just gets cringier and cringier.





I thought this was a trilogy for some reason but just found out it's like a series on 6??? Idk if I'll continue, I really enjoyed book 2 but book 3 antics were not for me

This is a very good book

The book is very good and I would recommend it to anyone that Likes reading Dark romance But please check your trigger warnings before you start reading this series or anything by this author

When I started this series, I held so much anticipation for this book because Remo Falcone in the other books was *chef's kiss*, and suffice to say that the book gave me more than I hoped for. Remo and Serafina found a place in my heart; I don’t think they’d give it back. With a dash of enemies-to-lovers and a touch of Stockholm Syndrome, their journey mesmerized me.

Although Remo had a black, broken heart, I loved the way he showed his love for Serafina. I loved their banter, and man, I loved Serafina so much! She wasn’t just a damsel in distress “kidnapped girl,” but instead, we got the literal match to our devil. I loved the opposites:
She’s light, he’s dark
She’s spicy, he’s kinky
She’s pure, he’s dirty
She’s love, he’s hate

I’ve just started my journey with Cora’s books, and this book is really my favorite of hers.

5.0

Such a good mafia book.

Serafina and Remo were such a good match. I loved that she never backed down and he was so gone for her despite his denial.

“Look,” I panted. “There’s your spirit animal. A vulture.”

Remo stopped and laughed. A real laugh. Not dark, taunting, or cruel. “Good to know you find me that repulsive.”


I just loved the jogging scenes.
