I had really high hopes cuz i was so intrigued by how the story was set up but it was a bit disappointing. Not a total bust, but had a lot more potential. The plot the first 70% ish of the book could have been much more intriguing than it was. It definitely picked up at the end which kept me engaged, but some of the dialogue between the characters were kinda cringy/cheesy too. So the writing for me in this one was mid mixed with the plot that ended up being decent, but could have been much better given all the characters history and dynamics.

Honestly, disappointing with an F. I was obsessed with Alessandro in Salvatore's book, but I've been yet let down by a grumpy stone-cold man I thought I would love. This really had potential; bodyguard trope? Falling in love with someone you're supposed to kill and the "oH FUCK ME" realisation? A silent one-word man suddenly expressing how he feels? But this had everything I dislike about Mafia books: Testosterone all the way down. Gross.
It gets an extra star for the Sergei cameo <3333 MAN I love him. Also for introducing Kai, who's described as even MORE unhinged and maniacal than Sergei, so of cOURSE I'm obsessed with him now xoxo
ALSO HEAVY TOPICS OF ABUSE. I only came to this series for lunatic men and some haha giggles, anD SUDDENLY ITS NO LONGER HAHA
