I mean, it’s Tessa Bailey…
This was my first “mafia” story and it was a fast-paced read that requires you to suspend your beliefs a little bit.
As with all Tessa stories, I describe this one as sex with bits of plot sprinkled throughout.
I will say… I didn’t realize that a commanding “woman” could do it for me, but I really enjoyed the way the male audiobook narrator said that phrase throughout the story.
If you want a fast-paced, alpha male, touch her and die, he falls first/ harder story that has a dog and a cross country story, this is it!
As with all stories, the fact that they fell hard for each other in less than a week (less than a few minutes on Will’s part) and end up married 6 months later, does take you out of the story but it is fiction…

The characters were so horny. Like. What.
There were just a few little things that bothered me. (There are probably spoilers ahead)

- The heteronormativity. Every man with a functioning D must be attracted to the FMC. Every woman alive must be attracted to the MMC. No they don't?
- So.
Towards the end (during the whole turning point), he betrayed her trust that he carefully built up by throwing money at her. I personally was devastated at that scene because in my head, this was not something u bounce back from. This was vital and important and not solved sensitively. During the conversation at the end (u know, the Convo that solves all the issues and leads to happy end), that issue came up shortly, the money and the betrayal/ destroyed trust. But it wasn't solved. They instantly moved on from the issue, didn't talk it out, and j was like🧍. And now?? - I also didn't really feel like there was a reason to keep the conning a secret. I mean, yeah sure, death awaits, blah blah. But I thought they were building trust? And I for one felt like Tessa Bailey was doing a great job at making falling in love in three days look convincing. However that is possible. But in the sensor of plot, I eventually understood why Tessa chose that road, cause it made the rest plausible. Anyway.
