Okay I love it when library audiobooks come through at a time when I wasn’t really expecting and then I have to take a break from the heavier topics for a little bit of romance. 
 
Goddamn this book is good. Dark Mafia romance with glorious smutty scenes (like actually inventive scenes) and plenty of romance and intrigue involved. Her actually being weirded out by his initial comments and obsessive behaviour and watching him tone it down and listen to her??? It’s well paced if the obsessive-ness from him comes on strong.

Honestly needed a silly little dark romance break in my reading and now I’m going to read the rest of them.

The spice is so good, but there’s only really a couple of spicy scenes, a lot of kink negotiation and more plot than either of these.
