If I start talking about this book I will never stop. You’d waste precious time reading this review when you could be using that time to read this book instead. If I could give this 10 stars I would.

I found this one really hard to rate. I did have some issues with it, but then I will not rate it down cause those issues I had are a common theme in dark romance and I knew it was dark romance.
And I really did had fun reading this, but I'm not entirely sure why. The story sucked me in and I love a totally unhinged characters. Yes, Nikolai was stalking and consent was a foreign concept to him, so I did have to dissociate my brain a bit since I haven't read dark romance in a while.
But I liked the weird dynamic and Brandon's MH issues were actually really well portrayed in my opinion.
The spice was also good and didn't get boring despite there being a LOT.
Obviously a totally unrealistic story concept. Two groups of young hot mafia spawn who keep beating each other up including several hospital visits and burning down buildings in... the south of England? Yeah no, I had to really close both eyes to that to not let it distract me for being just very out there.
But aside from that, I had a great time with this book.

LO AME TOTALMENTE, no tengo palabras para expresar la montaña rusas de emociones por la cual pase leyendo el libro ajjdjqje. En un momento me reía y al otro estaba llorando. Ambos personajes son ligeramente complicados pero mientras avanza el libro es facil conectar con ambos y entender por qué hacen lo que hacen.

This was a ride y’all.
I’ve been putting off reading this one bc of people calling it the best MM romance they’ve read. Expectations were high, to say the least.
But after a few pages in, I understood. I don’t know how the book manages to be so fucking hilarious but heart-wrenching at the same time, but it was a treat.
Heated Rivalry is still my favorite MM romance, but everything about this book was top tier. The humor, the banter, the smut, the tension. I don’t know how to explain this, but at times this book felt like an out-of-body experience. I devoured it in a day, somehow, while also having to act like a normal member of society and study for an test I had the next day. So yeah.
