Elena x Nico
'Say my name' had literally had me kicking my feet in the air!!!
The chemistry was so palpable I can feel it through the boom pages!!!!

I personally am giving this an extra star because the dialogue between Nico and Elena is always electric and it takes something special to make simple conversations hit like they do. So many bookmarks. SO many.
Yes the plot is a little weak but once you see the chemistry between those two, who even CARES? Bear in mind that usually books like this are so badly written that I can’t get past the first couple of pages…I was pleasantly surprised when I wanted to read on and binged it all night because I was HOOKED by the will-they-won’t-they (please-do-so-I-can-go-to-sleep)!
I’ve never read a mafia romance before though and it’s honestly impossible to swallow the way their world works. I can understand the murder and the cheating etc because yea, money makes the world go around and sadly that’s always going to be true. The archaic misogyny and double standards? I cringed a lot. Swore a lot. Rolled my eyes a lot. So I really had to ignore the blatant death of feminism whilst reading this, and I know little about Cosa Nostra but the portrayal of it sounds about right so well done to the author for inciting such visceral reactions in me. You don’t shoot the messenger.
Nonna? My literal favourite
