TROPES:
- 11 year age gap
- Mafia princess/billionaire hero
- Forced marriage
- Accidental/surprise pregnancy
My first book by this author and after the release of her latest book yesterday, I thought I'd ought to give this one a go before I dove into Luca's story. Safe to say it did not disappoint!
The only negative thing I'd have to say about this is that the characters can be irritating sometimes, but I understand that it has to be that way for the story to be able to take full effect.
