I love this audio book, I’ve just finished and could easily start it over again.
Narration was great, really matched the characters and I found the duet style suited the writing.
A golden retriever mafia son and a prim and proper artist make an opposites attract mm dark romance worth reading/listening to.
Both MMCs suffer from mental health issues which feeds into the premise and adds a darker edge, check tw.

Giggling and squealing ensues frequently. Niko is the sweetest bby. This book was thoroughly entertaining and so so so sweet it shot up to one of my all time favorites.

Loved them together! I admit, I was a little skeptical in the beginning but it was so worth it. I absolutely love this book! But please look at the tws!!
Edit: I reread this book after I read the whole series. And let me tell you, it was as good as before, or even better. I love them to death. Like, so much. I love the way Niko is such a golden retriever. I'm a sucker for the grumpy x sunshine trope, and this one delivered.
I hate Grace so much. The way that she never thought she did anything wrong, the way that she continually thought that he wanted it - ugh. She makes me sick. And one of my favourite scenes in this book is the revenge that Niko and Lan did to her. Ughhhhh. The second Niko found out, I knew he was going to destroy her, and he fucking DELIVERED. I especially love how Lan was with him, how they both made Grace pay. That scene was epic, I loved it
Brandon and Landon will also be the death of me. Ugh, I love them two so much, and how much they care for each other. They are my favourite twins <3

I absolutely loved this book. Nikolai and Brandon were everything. They are my absolute favorite couple from this series.
The mental health representation in this book was amazing. I can't tell you how much I cried while reading this.
My thoughts on Landon have also changed after reading this. I didn't dislike him as much of at all now that I've read this. I loved seeing him and Brandon reconnect and become close again.
I also really loved the scene where Nikolai and Landon join forces at the end when it truly mattered. I just can't hate Landon now that I've read and understand why he was so distant with his siblings(mainly with Brandon).
I probably have more I can say about this. But I can't put it all into words. But just know that I devoured this book. I did not want to put it down at all. I can't recommend this enough. But absolutely check the triggers before reading.
