This was my first true mafia romance and honestly, it was alright. Neither of the MCs should be likeable on paper, but somehow I just kept rooting for them. The book was an interesting exploration of each of their characters, specifically because they were so flawed. And their character progression felt realistic... enough for the story to get us to a HEA, but not too much that it felt like they all of a sudden just became different characters.
Toxic? I mean, totally. Did I still get on board with this love story? Yep.

Did this girl really run away from her shitty boyfriend only to then make a cam account and message him directly?? . I can not. Both main characters are lacking. He’s bland and one-note. She’s inept. There’s barely any depth to their relationship. This entire book is just an abusive Stockholm syndrome being marketed as romance.
