mafia romances aren't my thing anymore but this one was great. steam was there and the plot made sense - a win-win situation.

I liked things and I didn't like things. I would like nico and then he'd say or do something that was a bit much for me. but I do love a morally gray guy so it was hard for me to dislike him all together. some very cute moments. good banter. mild spice.

the overall plot reminded me a lot of 50 shades (I won't spoil it). falls in love super quick and neither character believe the other could love them so it's a slow burn.

overall if you like mafia romances yes I'd recommend it. they're just not top of the list for me, but I wanted to give it a try. I also listened to the audiobook and I think reading would have been better. I'd give this 2.5.

I felt like it was longer than it needed to be, with an anti-climatic ending

Minor: Rape, Sexism, and Death of parent

It’s a mafia romance so there’s parts concerning organized crime (death, murder, gun violence, regular violence, blood). There’s some sexist elements (women in the family aren’t allowed to choose their husbands-arranged marriage; they’re seen as tainted if they have sex before marriage).

Nico’s mom was a drug addict, and his step-mother uses cocaine frequently (drug use). Nico became head of the family bc his mother died of an overdose and his father was shot (death of parent). Elena’s sister becomes pregnant with her boyfriends child while engaged to Nico (pregnancy & infidelity). Most of not all of the men cheat on their wives/partners frequently (infidelity).

Perfect mafia romance. Nico is a childish simp and I stan it. Gave me all the feelies.  Loved the way Elena wanted to atone for her/her family’s mistakes and helped her sister when it came to it.

I read this book for two reasons: I wanted to read smut, and BookTok has finally won.
Maybe I had too many expectations, but I didn't enjoy this book as much as I'd hoped. I hated the first part: Elena annoyed me to no ends, and I was bored out of my mind. I did decide to push through, mostly because I hate dropping a book. And thank f*ck the second half was better, and it made up for the first part, BUT I can't say that I loved this book as a whole.

So yes, it wasn't love at first page, however I will continue reading this series, because I'm too curious for my own good
