Can I have a Mikhail in my life? The way this man, the muscle of his family mafia, is so soft and caring for her, even before meeting her in person is just *chef kiss*. The way he has is own problems, but just looking at her he wants to change is just so perfect of an evolution for him. And Bianca grows in the relationship too.
Almost didn't want this story to end. Will definitely be reading the next book in the series soon...and because I skipped book 1 due to tiktok, will go back and read that one too.

this one was also cute (can you even call a mafia romance cute idk) to be honest i read this in a day so i didn’t process any of what i was reading but i know that it was a good time and i enjoyed it
*audiobook
"I told her I'd kill her if she had an abortion."
Ew.
Romance mmcs are supposed to be desirable, but this author missed the memo completely.
How am i supposed to root for an mmc who says things like this?
Not only is this mmc ugly, but he also threatens to kill women if they don't want to give birth.
Yikes. Pick a struggle, please.
My attitude towards this book instantly turned negative when he said that, and suddenly I couldn't wait for this to end.
Also, this fmc sucks... she's so lame. In a weird ass scene, this girl sat her mother down to vividly describe her lame ass sex life with the mmc.
Yes, to her... mother...
In order to... brag? I dont fkin know. This bitch is lame. And she threatened to "expose" another woman for getting cosmetic implant...? Um, okay...
No chemistry between them, and only 3 hours into the audiobook, she's head over heels over nothing. And calling him "the most beautiful man" she’s ever seen.
Um, where? When did we get here?
I don't think I'll continue this series.
(Also he doesn't know how to make pancakes... the easiest thing to make...)
Also, the WORST and lamest sex scenes I've read so far this year... zero tension, zero chemistry.
Also his child is annoying.

While it’s not the type of book I would normally read, it was well written. The author had me invested in the plot, the characters and the main pairing (even if I sided certain instances in the book).

Love, love, love this arranged marriage mafia romance! The MC is a tortured hero who won't let anyone touch him and get past his walls, except for the delicate and fierce mafia princess he is forced to marry. The way this man was absolutely feral for his wife was so freaking fun, he was not above stalking her and keeping her away from any man who may be interested. While some jealous/possessive scenes can rub me the wrong way, our MC was just so sweet and completely worshiped the ground his wife walked. The character development and plot may be minor, but this smutty read was not lacking at all.
