🌶🌶🌶🌶
Reverse harem with step siblings where mysteries grow in the mafia dark romance. 
I have to admit I thought the FMC was kinda weak.

To me it like she was being bullied and just taking it. Until she got pissed and spun the table on all 3 boys. And that little scene left me fanning myself

The cliff hanger almost made me chuck the book. Immediately proceeded to get the series because there's no way I'm not running through that series this month lol

read with zero information other than it was a “dark romance” and it was the only one not currently checked out. i’m not the person to ask for a rating because i can’t get down with mafia stories (i tried so hard to watch organized crime. huge stabler fan. i can’t handle “macho guys posturing with guns” storylines) and while i intellectually understand the interest in step sibling taboo, it’s not for me. i think the most interesting aspect of the story for me was the tobias/lazarus relationship, and if her paper ended being any good.

Ryth's whole world came crashing down. Her father is in jail, her house burned down and now she's living with her future step father and step brothers. The brothers decide to make her theirs. Also, something sketchy is going on with her dad. 
This was steamy and intense. The sub plot with the gangs and her dad is definitely interesting. That cliffhanger though, yeah I'm gonna need to find out what happens next.

Reread: I was in a slump and I just needed something easy and fun to read and this was it. 


I really enjoyed this what can I say 🤷🏼‍♀️

I just honestly ate this up. I really liked all the male leads, which is unusual because I always find one kind of dull. The plot of this was good as well. That cliffhanger ending?? Like what? This is not for everyone so I honestly don’t recommend
