Writing style was very off. The spicy scenes were well written but the other scenes seemed thrown together. So much happened in two paragraphs I thought I skipped a page on accident. The writing felt sloppy; the FMC was British but the MMC was using words like “trousers” more frequently. And there were many inconsistency within the same page. The FMC described her skin as pale then three sentences later said she had a light tan. Overall it felt like a rough draft of a book rather than a planned and published one.

i loved it, i guessed a lot of it but i still loved it. i kept seeing it on tiktok so i figured i should check it out and i gotta say it was amazing. ML is obsessed with FL and Fl is almost as obsessed, he is a professional boxer and hitman for mafia and she wants to help kids because her childhood sucked.

Dark mafia boxing romance had me hook line and sinker. I enjoyed the plot, storyline, and spice level (🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️). 

He falls first but they both fall HARD and FAST. I walked away needing a Keller in my life

I enjoyed the premise of the book unfortunately the writing style wasn't my cup of tea. 

I did enjoy reading though but most likely won't read anything from this author in the future

Sienna is newly single and wants to leave men behind as no one ever stays long enough to stick around. Until one night hitting the town she saw him. Keller who grew up in rough and poor conditions who is now rising to fame from an underground street fighter to a potential world boxing champion. Keller doesn’t need distractions but Sienna is a firecracker he never saw coming. Will she stick around once the secrets are revealed? 

I really enjoyed this debut novel. It had plot and the spice. Keller is obsessive and protective of Sienna and I was swooning. I laughed at many bits as well. Sienna and Keller were also open with feelings and there past and a few scenes in here made me sad and angry for the characters. 

Also going to be honest every time this man said my name I was highlighting and screaming! Also the crawling and controlling scene imprinted in my brain.

Only thing is I wish a couple of scenes played out a little more for example her Birthday night. Also it was insta love which isn’t a problem it was just fast. I’m just someone who likes angst and tension.
