this was the slowest slow burn ever in the best way and I loved Gianna even though I wasn't that intrigued by her in the first book

i went feral every time Christian casually killed someone for Gianna

Never in a million years did I think I would like something like this or even tolerate it. Ignoring all the cringey moments and misogyny of the mafia world, I enjoyed it. 

Yes, it’s not going to be some award-winning literary masterpiece with perfect writing and prose. But it WAS entertaining. The same way people enjoy trashy reality tv. Call it a guilty pleasure, but either way it was enjoyable enough to finish it in one sitting.

giannachristian..... im speechless there's no words really for how i feel abt them.... it was the pining one true love story i desperately needed it to be and the way it was offset with plenty of lustful sensual straight up dirty moments was perfect. lives up to the first book easy easy.
