I loved this book it's a great age gap mafia romance book (13 years) but part of me hated that for most of the book she was 18 while he was 31 but other than that I think that guilia is an amazing character and so is cassio. I also kind of hated the way he thought that she should "obey" him but we got over that part.  I think cassio had an amazing character development and it's over all an easy greate book i def recommend. I read it in a day it was a bit boring at first but it gets better and cuter. Overall a must read

Going into this book, I had no idea what to expect. I knew it was an age gap romance but I didn’t expect to read about an 18 and 31-year-old getting married. I also didn’t expect to absolutely love it!

What I thought was interesting, and something that I haven’t seen in other Mafia romances that I’ve read, is that the relationship between Giulia and the children are highlighted many, many times. I thought it was adorable to see Daniele and Simona grow more comfortable towards and around Giulia, especially when she takes on the role of “mom.” 

It’s also refreshing to see Giulia, a young woman who was a girl mere months ago, grow into a woman —— a wife and a mother. It’s almost like she was mature in that sense all along, despite everything that made her young. And I think her being young meant a lot to Cassio.

Cassio is hot. And I mean HOT hot. Like that man could run me over and I’d be the one saying sorry. Cassio and his family are everything I want in life. He’s sexy, intimidating, strong, and surprisingly humorous. I knew I was into older guys before reading this but HOLY HELL *whew* I am sold. If he’s not at least 30, that ain’t it. 

A romance I didn’t need, but a romance I wanted. I’m so happy I found Cora Reilly and I’ll DEFINITELY be reading more of her books in the near future.
