I genuinely enjoyed this book. I think it might be my second favorite of the series so far. I'm not a fan of the cheating, but goddamn, Rocco, Ravi's husband, was an abusive piece of human garbage. He controlled EVERYTHING in Ravi's life. She had like 4 phone numbers programmed into her cell. She couldn't pay for anything; her bodyguards were the ones with Rocco's credit card and paid whenever she was done shopping. What she ate, Rocco decided. How she dressed and it was always tight, revealing dresses that Ravi hated. He was nuts. 

Anyways, Alessandro planned on killing Ravi for revenge. Rocco killed Alessandro 's wife. He fell in love with Ravi instead. I'm glad they got their HEA. They had really good chemistry... stealing glances and touches and all that. Alessandro did feel like he was betraying himself and his mission, but he still didn't treat Ravi badly for that.

That epilogue was epic though, and I'm excited to know that Kai has a story. I was wrecking my mind over a snippet from the previous book with Pavel and Asya, when Pavel was telling Asya about growing up in foster care. Kai was the kid that he was talking about, omg... about how other kids made fun of his hair and always got into fights, and then he supposedly got adopted... omg.

Love that these books can truly be read as a standalone. However, you'd miss small details that connect these stories to each other if you don't read them in order.
