4.0

This book was so fast paced and I flew through it! I can’t wait to see the other sisters get their own stories and I’m about to binge the rest of the series.

However, this book has the cheating trope!! It would have been 5⭐️ otherwise… but I hated the cheating and I hated how they talked about the girl after it.

The lines of consent were so blurred and I just can’t get over how much I didn’t like Luca.

Sex, violence, moral ambiguity
I loved it. 
I figured they would’ve come to a stage of obvious emotional affection a lot sooner than they did, but I’m a sucker for a slow burn. I was waiting for more playfulness like in the scene at the gym but mafias are usually more dark so it doesn’t bug me as much as it usually would, but that scene came so naturally it was hard not to want more of that dynamic, can’t wait to see if the other books provide that

4.0

Ho trovato questa lettura sorprendentemente intensa e piacevole, adatta per chi cercasse un dark romance, spicy, ma non troppo, abbastanza breve da leggere per passare il tempo.
Non è di sicuro la lettura più memorabile del secolo, ma risulta a mio parere estremamente appassionante sul momento, soprattutto grazie al fatto che la protagonista svolge anche lei una parte attiva nella storia.
Inoltre, ho apprezzato molto l'enfasi sul consento, che da un libro del genere non mi sarei mai aspettata.

4/5 spice lots of scenes that are well written. This book would have been a 4.5/5 stars if I had stopped before the last few chapters. I really liked their growth together and how they pushed each other. 

Then he sees no problem with not informing her weeks ago that her little sister was sold into a marriage. Also the big ending is I actually love you I don’t just want to Fuck you.

So yup ends on a fairly big Cliff hanger and not a great ending overall.
