I'd recommend this to anyone interested in a mafia don dark romance. I enjoyed his intensity and all his lust and need for her. Lots of gore, but most of it was warranted.

okay this book was okay. like there was a solid plot and decent characters but i feel like there was so much potential for more! and it’s so annoying when you read a book that you know can be really fantastic but it just lacks something. i hope hope hope in the next book there is a lot more character development and they are executed really well.

update: reading this a second time, i feel like i enjoyed it more. i felt like i felt their chemistry a bit more - i do wish we got more domestic scenes but nonetheless, i liked it better this time around.

Before Reading: “But there was something about the man. Something I wanted to unravel, pick apart so I could find all the pieces that made him who he was.
What I found was not what I expected.
He wants my heart.
He wants me to be his wife in more ways than just that piece of paper that binds us.
And the more time I spend trapped with the mafia boss in his clifftop house, the more pieces of me he steals.” 👀🫢

Overall: this book was okay. Not much plot to it, more of talking in circles. I rated it 3 stars because it got interesting the last 10% or so.

Perfect blend of dark and danger. Loved the writing style and characters. Killer slow burn but worth it. Check your triggers
