Did not like the prologue. 

Heart Of A Monster was a very good, intense book. It takes place within the Mafia world. I found the second book in this series to be a little more captivating, but this one is very good! I found myself getting deep into the book with the characters. I say Rome is one of my fictional boyfriends. :)

I just could not open the book back up every time I tried to go back to it Id think about the story plot and was just like, eh it's not grabbing me. Katie got on my nerves and what's his name... see I forgot his name...
I think I'll try another one of her books her writing is pretty good I just didn't like the characters or where the story was going in this one.

What's not good for me might be fantastic for you!
Happy Reading Friends!

slow-paced

4⭐️ Love triangle mafia dark romance! *Warning: there is sex trafficking and discussion of minor sexual assault*
Rome and Katie are so jaded and broken that they are right for each other! I don’t like that she’s often referred to as “Kate-bait” bc of her role that she plays within the Italian mafia. Super spicy scene when the love triangle is finally figured out

The ending has me seeing red.
