๑ Deception #1
✼ ----------- ✼
No esperaba quedar al borde del abismo cuando terminé este libro. Pero sí, ha dejado su marca en mí diciendo "DEBES LEER EL SIGUIENTE LIBRO YA". En fin, que por eso se gana un punto.
El libro es bastante weird, y cuando digo que es raro... no se lo tomen a la ligera. Con esa portada te engaña y parece un libro erótico cualquiera, pero creo que hay algo más que eso.
He quedado sorprendida por la trama. Lo que parecía ser un libro de mafia más, al final tiene una especie de revelación que advierte que se vienen cosas, se vienen cosas. En fin, que me dejó pensando.
El principio fue un poco confuso, se nos pone en una situación muy ¿fuerte? I guess; para ya continuar con la historia ligeramente más normal.
La relacion entre nuestros protagonistas inicia muy ¿rara? I mean, un secuestro nunca es buena forma de conocer al amor de tu vida. Pronto, las cosas van avanzando entre Adrian y Winter. No estoy de acuerdo en su relación, no para nada; de hecho, espero que Winter no vaya perdiendo esas ganas de sobrevivir.
Lo que me da más curiosidad en el libro, no son las escenas románticas o el smut; sino, qué se esconde en aquella casa de huéspedes y en Adrian Volkov.
Para ser un libro de mafiosos rusos, no tiene esa adrenalina propia de este género. Es algo que falta desarrollar y espero ver más de eso en los siguientes libros. Mmm, Jeremy es un nene super tierno, pero ya aprendi la lección y no me voy a encariñar con ningun niño que vaya a ser heredero de una oranización criminal (Fabiano Scuderi, gracias por traumarme ).
En fin, que espero continuar la saga y que se desarrolle como yo quiera (cosa que no va a pasar pero es válido soñar).

This book was such a trip for me. Not gonna lie, I was confused for the majority of the book. I was just beginning to understand what was actually happening, and then cliffhanger. Overall, the spice was good and the story line is there, it just took me a while to understand where it was going.

Okay yes I spoiled myself and almost gave up on this book! I’ll admit it!
-
This book made me angry! Like in the beginning it was so boring and frustrating. It was kinda predictable like the thing you thought might have 50% correct.
Winter/Lia? She kinda annoyed me when she wanted to keep her identity. Like the readers knew something the character doesn’t know and it’s so frustrating!
Adrian. Now usually I love male characters but him… he got on my nerves. He was so annoying very much obsessive (I love obsession trope or whatever you call) it’s not the obsession I like he just annoyed me so much!
During the end of the book it got interesting and it left me confused.
One thing about me is I freakin hate mystery and leaving me with unanswered questions! I hope the second book doesn’t disappoint like this one.
-
Overall and very frustrating book but
3/5 stars ig-

This was torture:D
-
I’ve only read this again was bc I bought the special edition cover and I needed to re-tab as well as refresh my memory!
Winter/Lia (FC: Yael Shelbia):
- Still annoyed me.
- A badass who doesn’t take no BS from Adrian.
- A perfect mother to Jermey I’ll give her that.
Adrian (Fc Quentin.e on IG):
- This man is a 50/50.
- He’s a jerk but then he says things that make me fall to my knees!
- So possessive like damn we get it!
- Him with Jermey makes my heart melt I’ll give him that…
-
This book was torture I’ve always and will hate amnesia trope like I hate that I know but the character doesn’t!
Jermey is so precious and we need to protect him.
I hope Lia sees Larry again kinda miss him.

Overall 3/5 stars. As much as I can’t stand the trope. It was good I guess there we some parts that made me want to hit my head on a wall but others were cute-
Time to read the next book wish me luck :’)

I just wanted to read a mafia romance and I found myself reading some sort of fucked up retelling result of a fuck between Jane Eyre and Dorian Gray. I had to use all my dumbass brain for this shit and it wasn't enough because I still don't understand shit
