before im attacked by the gc for a high rating on a mafia romance,,, i gave it extra points bc i ate it up AND for the ace rep, which i will ALWAYS eat up. SUE ME‼️ MY REVIEW MY RULES‼️

ok look i kinda ate this up
they were very messy! but the drama is part of the fun and tbh each time they got angry at each other i believed in the reasons lmao

the mental health stuff was very sad in this but i do think it was handled respectfully, especially for a mafia romance

“college romance” and they never really went

spoilers for the second half:
i didn’t completely love niko showing off the video of 15 year old bran being GROOMED to his family. i dont think that was necessary. they definitely would have believed bran even without seeing it

grace is DUMB AS HELL. why would you leak out evidence of you grooming someone just to prove a point 😭 dumbest mofo ive ever seen

ALSO i live for father son and son in law bonding while killing the nonce. and then not burdening bran with the knowledge they killed her for him. look, imma give respect where it is due ok. it couldve easily been a drama plot point and i was happy bran never found out. some secrets ie killing ur boyfriends abuser is all good

I'm always a fan of MM romance. I hadn't expected Bran's trauma and the extent of his damage. Niko's mental health issues were more expected based on the previous books. I'm glad the author didn't make it so that the characters' mental health issues magically healed when their relationship problems were settled since that's not how it works in real life. I really liked how it showed that they continue to love each other but also still continue their own journeys in trying to find treatments/coping strategies.

A recommendation I found on TikTok and an impulse buy from Thrift Books minutes later and I have zero regrets.  This was fucking amazing!!

Oh my god, I am as obsessed with this book as Nikolai is to Brandon.  The way this book had me kicking my feet and smiling like an idiot.  This book was literally so good.  It felt like reading a fan-fiction (in a good way) and even though I’m not a fan of first person point of view in spicy books this book is the exception.  10/10.

Nikolai was genuinely so hilarious.  I absolutely love him and his total lack of shame.  I laughed out loud so many times because of this bisexual bitch.

Brandon and Nikolai really balanced each other out and the more their relationship progressed the more this really showed.  While they did go back and forth a bit it was never anything too much.  

The aesthetic and format of this book was so beautiful.  I loved the playlist that was included in the beginning as well.  Overall 1000/10 🙌

This one actually made me cry but not from the relationship even though it was sweet at times but it was more Brandon and Landon’s talk at the end of the book. I adore Landon and Brandon is meh but i completely understand at the same time

Actually a reread. I just remembered how messed up the characters (nikolai) are and how cute landon and brandon's  relationship was, totally forgot how cute nikolai was with brandon. This really makes me want to read mia and landon's story, but he's a certified psycho, so idk
