Kiara and Liam… oh my. Their story is great.
Liam hates being touched… besides when it comes to Kiara… their lives overlap in a way that they both are unaware of but once the connection is found. It’s was like someone added gasoline to the fire of the relationship and there was no going back after that.

Still just waiting for a mafia man to come take me away..

It was fine... just not for me

Great second book for the series. This book was set out a little different in my opinion with the major event/problem happening somewhere around the half way mark... and 2 other events bumps happening between that and the final 80% where at the point it was more of a resolution and then the remainderof the book was gooey yummy happiness. it was set up this way which is a bit different from the standard with the main issue being around 80%, and I loved it, it kept me unable to peel my eyes away incised I missed anything.
This was a medium burn book with nothing sexual happening between the MCs until 70% but as you read the book you will understand why, trust me it was not missed, and Liam was swoonworthy in the mean time!
Looking forward to the next book in the series.

⭐⭐⭐ It was okay, ignoring the issues for a fun read (average not a standout)

Is it just me? Idk it just wasn't for me, it was very insta lovey, full of smut and the start was kind just annoying and frustrating which felt like a lazy attempt at plot. I really wanted to love this book though so I am sad that I didn't! I think if this was a short smutty novella without the assault stalker plot line this would have been great! It was a good read but I really have nothing major to say because it was just a fun spicy time.
