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 definitely enjoyed this book this has been my most anticipated out of the whole series and it did not disappoint I loved how clingy Nikolai was I was definitely not expecting that and they were both equally possessive and jealous I was intrigued with every seen they spent together I’m almost done with this series and can’t wait to see how it wraps up this book was pretty good I loved Nikolai and glad I got to read his story overall this book is spicy with a happy ending and no cliffhangers it’s no cheating and no love triangle this book was Good Boy x Bad Boy and Enemies to Lovers overall I rated this book 4 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

All the heart eyes! 

Every book group I’m in hyped this book so hard I just knew they had to be overdoing it. But they actually understated how amazing it is! I am absolutely ENAMORED with Niko and Bran. Highly highly recommend the audiobook, I did an immersive read in tandem with the ebook and it was such an incredible experience. 

It’s a (really) rough ride at times, but oh so worth the rollercoaster of emotions. It’s also very sweet and adorable at times. And steamy. I’m already planning when to reread it? I can’t believe how late I am to this book and these guys, but I’m here now! I’m still teary eyed from the ending. Would give it 6 stars if I could!

It is a 5 stars AND behond.

I don’t know where to begin.
This is one of my favorite book EVER. And I don’t say it lightly.

I loved Nikolai since the first book of the series. I love crazy unhindged characters.
I loved Brandon as much because he is the shy sensible one. 
This book was obviously made for me.
Not only it didn’t disappoint me but it exceeded all my expectations.

You will also met Kolya.
It is my third favorite characters after Nikolai and Bran but before Jeremy. 
It made me laughed SO LOUD and SO many times that it was awesome.

This book is a masterpiece of tenderness, happiness, tension and also addresses very sensitive topics like suǐcīde, self-hårm and rãpě.

The audiobook is also a masterpiece.
It is narrated by @Teddy Hamilton and @Shane East. They’ve done an amazing work. They are perfect.

Please check the TW. It’s important for your mental health.

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
