- Plot- or character-driven? Character
I loooooved the first 3/4 of this. I enjoyed all of it, but I have a very different personality from the heroine so maybe that's it, but she needed a bit more of a backbone in my opinion. I can suspend my disbelief but come on, no one bites their tongue that often. I also feel like the whole innocent/naive thing was a lil heavy-handed. It makes me uncomfortable after a minute when the heroine, who lives in modern-day Chicago doesn't know much at all about anything, especially someone who grew up in a mafia family. Sure, ok. I did really like her sister Gianna, so I'm pumped to her read her book.
Tropes:
- mafia romance
- opposites attract
- shy/innocent heroine & grumpy/cynical hero
- super possessive hero
- the whole 'I hate that I love you' thing
- 'touch her and you die'
- hurt/comfort (not a lot, but it's there)
- 'I hate everyone but you'

Spoilery content warnings: *death of a parent *heroine gets roofied and the creep who did it planned on assaulting her (but he didn't) *infidelity (they were newly married and barely knew each other so like they weren't emotionally involved yet, ya know?)mariereads_'s review against another edition
