I don't like to slow a burn but this book could have done with slowing down a bit.  There was too much too soon, too intense too soon. 

I wasn't sold on the love story which made the whole thing a bit cringe in the last half, which is a shame as I saw potential in the first part. 

I might finish the series as I'd bought it but we shall see. 

"And instantly, I know this woman could very well be my downfall. All it took was: three heartbeats, two seconds, and one taste. And I was hers."

If you love mafia romances, Kylie Kent is your girl!! This book was amazingly hot and steamy! Theo is giving the alpha overprotective vibes that I know we all crave. I absolutely LOVED Holly's character, I already met her in An Entangled Christmas so I was so excited to see more of her story.

"Don't. I want to look at every inch of you. I want to burn this image in my memory. You are
f-cking gorgeous, Holly. So f-cking gorgeous I don't know where to start.


Ugh, this book left on a cliffhanger which had me SWEATTINGGG but Kylie is coming out with the next book in a month so we luckily don't have to wait too long! If you are a mafia lover, I cannot recommend this book enough!

I honestly have been changing my rating from 4 to 5 and back again because this book was so good! I don't give out many 5 stars but I literally can't wait to read the next one and I enjoyed this novel so much. I have decided it is indeed worthy of all 5 stars!

This was my introduction to both Kylie Kent and mafia romance and I can honestly say I'm officially a huge fan of both! I didn't want to put this book down. It was faced paced, well written, interesting and had the perfect amount of spice. Dark, romantic and sexy! I love that Holly is strong and independent woman who doesn't let her dark, sexy, protective alpha walk all over her. And, I have such a soft spot for Neo.

After completing the book, I learned that Holly is part of the Merge Universe, while not necessary, I wish I had started there. I have every intention of backtracking but that is going to have to wait for now because that cliffhanger has me RUNNING to book two.

I loved this book!

Theo and Holly are perfect together.

I love a good Mafia read, but that cliffhanger has me on the edge of my seat.

What an unlikely pair. I love that he falls first and hardest. Ends on a cliffhanger with a twist. Be prepared.
