Was getting into until callum was weird during the shower scene and it kind of soured for me. She can do better than him

Took a break from a different series to read this one because I was getting way too many recommendations from tiktok. Now that I’ve read it, I love how the cover ties into a part of the story (it’s hilarious actually). I wasn’t sure how I felt about the book and was getting bored until the 20% mark and it really started to pick up. Knowing that the next book is about the siblings finding love is so exciting cause Seb and Nero have my heart. More realistic take on a mafia romance. All the love, always <3

it wasn't bad. honestly the first 50% of the book was pretty interesting, but as it went on, the pacing seemed off. everything was going too fast and it seemed like their was no actual love between callum and aida. towards the end, the politics started to heavily take over, making it hard for me to focus and root for the romance. i can definitely understand why people hate this book, but to me it was okay and had potential.

This book is so fun and a great, fast read for when you're in a reading slump. There's a decent side plot, and the main two characters have such funny interactions. I think this book could've had more plot details and schemes, but I still had a lot of fun throughout this read! 

I recommend it to people looking for tension, small politics, gang side-plots, mafia, and spice

Definitely read the trigger warnings. But I DEVOURED this book. A lot funnier than I expected it to be, and the slow burn had me giddy by the end. The spicy scenes were great and I loved the ending, which is honestly not something I can say often.
