This book is my first MM Dark Romance and I wasn’t prepared for how dark it got. Tears were definitely shed. All in all though this book was really good. The possessiveness the main MMC’s had for each other was hot. Nikolai was VERY UNHINGED but at heart a golden retriever. Truly did not expect to have a character’s dick be its own entity but it brought about some hilarious points within the story.

This was a fun, messy read—dark romance chaos with a mafia twist and a heavy dose of enemies-to-lovers tension. Nikos and Bran have electric chemistry, but the constant push-pull between them got repetitive fast. The same cycle—together, apart, can’t stay away—played out a few too many times, and by the end, it felt like the book could’ve been at least 200 pages shorter.

That said, when the dynamic did hit, it hit hard. The tension, the vulnerability, and the emotional unraveling were really compelling, especially toward the end. I just wish we got more of that and less of the loop.

Rina Kent knows how to write intensity, and this one definitely delivers on that front. Just be aware: it’s dark, 18+, and comes with a solid list of trigger warnings—so check those before diving in.

If you enjoy MM romance with complicated characters, emotional warfare, and morally gray relationships, this one might be up your alley.

I really loved this book. The dynamic between Brandon and Nikolas was really sweet and a little crazy, I won't lie. But I really enjoyed reading it and I loved that serious issues were dealt with in this book and not romanticized. 
The book is a little crazy and there is a lot of smut and gore. If you don't like that sort of thing then this book is not for you. But I definitely loved it, even though I was pushed to my limit at times.
