Brutal Prince by Sophie Lark
2.75
Reading the Brutal Birthright books, before diving into Lark’s Kingmaker series (which I’ve heard a lot of good about). My expectations were medium-low, I just wanted a fun sexy mafia romance. I do feel like both the plot and romance of this book was lacking — the plot wasn’t as fleshed out as I would’ve liked, the climax and conclusion wrapped up way too neatly and quickly. The romance was fun, but the spicy scenes didn’t always make emotional sense and frankly the enemies to lovers switch was pretty abrupt.
I did like the initial world-building of the Chicago mafia underworld. And there is clearly a lot of potential with these characters and this setting. I’ll definitely keep reading, but I don’t think Callum and Aida will be super memorable to me.
