I liked the characters more in this book & appreciated the relationships that were built with the side characters! I’m glad that Adrian and Lia were able to communicate and form a better relationship for themselves & Jeremy.

Idk how I feel about this one. It’s different than any other mafia romance I’ve read. There were lots of mysteries that we solved across the trilogy. The sadism masochist dynamic isn’t really my kink, but I highly recommend these novels for people who are more into that. 

Both of the main characters are really dynamic. I can’t fully love or hate either one and I think that’s a mark of a good character. They’re human and fallible.

The characters are so unnecessarily dramatic and dumb that I spent 80% of the book rolling my eyes.

I love, love, loved this series. I love that it was written in the order it was... talk about a mind fuck. Absolute perfection. Best mafia romance I've read and will most likely be one of the best books I'll read all 2022. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Definitely not for people who are sensitive though, take the content warnings seriously.
