Ugh so cute! Ok so I think I liked this better than the last book just a tad! Bianca is a mute Italian mafia princess being offered to the Russians as a wife to bring peace. Mikhail is the enforcer of the Russian mob and has been watching Bianca dance for months. Between Mikhail's no touching and scars and Biancas voice and shit family, the trauma was very prominent in the plot. What wasn't? Mikhails daughter Lena. She's present for plot purposes but she disappears in the last 50ish pages. She isn't even in the epilogue (that I remember). Just kinda weird plot hole stuff. The actual romance and main plot was great and interesting though!

This was such a surprise! I really enjoyed this a lot. It was feeling like a 5⭐️ and then I had time to think and there were a few things that I wished would have gotten resolved at the end of the book. But this romance was adorable. I loved Mikhail and his daughter; they were so cute!
