Okay imma be real honest I’d say this book is a 4.9 ⭐️. It’s the epitome of every enemies to lovers. I love the transition from Nico and Adrianna to Nico and Elana. Where the family was Italian it was hard to keep track of who was who in the large family. Everything was delicately placed in the plot such a great read if your just starting dark romance. Definitely recommend. I would have loved an epilogue though that would be my .1 😖 anywho if you like mafia based romance this is the book for you. If you loved this book I would check out “The Brutal Prince”- by Sophie Lark.🍓

Okay I have many questions like what happened to the theater guy Elana was seeing? Did she ever get a drivers license? She also completely forgot about dance.

They are from two mafia families. Nico is engaged to Elena's sister, but there's absolutely nothing between them, and it's shown how Elena and Nico end up together.

Lil mafia romance while I got my nails done. 💅🏻 Read it because I saw an excerpt on Twitter about their first kiss.
