let me start by saying that in the past week I have read so many books centered around the Mafia or the Bratva. So I am coming from a lot of mafia overload when I am writing this review.
I enjoyed the writing and how smooth it felt and I will be picking up more of Van Dyken's books, However, this book just fell a bit off tangent for me. I loved the idea of the book and the direction of the mafia was different from what I have read in a bit but this one just wasn't it.
Okay, so we have these group of students attending a university that is owned by the mafia. They have all the power and instead of them seeming powerful they just felt like attention-seeking bullies to me. Anyways their parents made they promise not to date or fall in love with each other which was basically to make sure that there is unity and they don't get weakened by the matters of the heart (which honesty is understandable, especially with how movies nowadays want us to believe you can solve everything with a penis). But there is Junior Nicolasi and Serena who have been having sex since they were sixteen but now that the stakes are higher and they are now in university they have suddenly become worse enemies than imaginable.
(Honestly, I don't know how to review this book) I mean one second they are almost killing each other (and I mean that literally) and the next they are having sex. Their back and forth was giving me a whiplash. Long and short of the story was their parents found out and Junior was almost killed but their loved stood strong and the 5 families allowed them to remain in love. Fuck that.
I just want more of Asher's story, I feel Dyken did him dirty. I will not say more than so I don't spoil this book further.

The Queen of Mafia has brought another fantastic book to us, and as usual with her, I didn't get much sleep—but it was worth every minute I spent reading it, and every cup of coffee I will have to consume to function today because Junior and Serena's story is EVERYTHING! It is blood, it is family, it is passion, it is LOVE!
Old and new blood collided in a story that will most definitely tug at your heartstrings. A story that you won’t be able to put down. Rachel has created a new writing style for herself with this book, reminding us why she's the Mafia Queen.
So dear Rachel, thank you so much for writing a story that I didn't know I needed in my life, a story that's completely remarkable and so much more—a new addiction.
If you are an Eagle Elite fan, you will be in heaven! And if you are not, it doesn’t matter, you will still love it—and I will just have to tell you: Blood In, No Out... welcome to the family.

girl this was lowkey a mess and I expected better from Ms Van Dyken... typos and way too horny teenagers seemed to be the theme here.
I'm dead. I died. I am deceased. This book killed me it was so freaking good.
All hail the queen. Because no one does mafia romance like this author.
A friends to enemies story that had me from the very first line on the very first page. I swear this book will delight and frustrate you all at the same time.
The story itself is twisted and fun. It’s dangerous and sexy, and just a little bit crazy. I loved the characters and their penchant for the dramatic. I loved reading about the world they live in. And how far some people will go to get exactly what they want.
This was just an all around great read, and the perfect thing to keep you distracted from the current craziness! 5 solid stars from me!
