Eh, mafia just isn’t my jam, but I needed this for a book challenge. Cate C. Wells is a hit or miss author for me and this one, I’m afraid, was a miss.
Look, I love a good psychopath lead - they’re hard to write and make compelling enough that you root for their HEA, but there’s something about Dario that I didn’t enjoy or connect with. He’s the wet blanket of psychopaths. Posy was meh.
And wth was up with that last chapter?!? So OTT. Epilogue was cute though.
