Devil's Captive by Celia Aaron
2.0
This is a very generic mafia book.
It was entertaining enough that I finished it but I struggled with the characters a lot.
The MMC was an ass for a really dumb reason. If I’m going to read a story about a character hell-bent on revenge, it needs to be for a good reason. And taking your frustrations out on someone because you’re mad at their parents, in my opinion, is just ridiculous. Especially when you know those parents have abused the victim you are now abusing.
The other problem I had with this book is for the main male character, his character did a complete 180 out of nowhere. It felt like I was reading a completely different character about halfway through the book when he decided to love and cherish the main female character. It was absolutely bizarre. It wasn’t a Slow progression into loving his new wife at all.
No cheating.
HEA
