This is my first Sophie Lark book, and it won’t be my last.
It’s a Mafia Romance with all the tropes, arranged marriage, enemies to lovers, touch her a 💀 vibes.
It’s not a literary masterpiece but it was fun to read. The characters should not be taken seriously, the story even shouldn’t but it’s a bit of fun escapism where you can giggle and maybe gasp a time or two. It’s quick and easy to read and the characters you can either love or hate and I think that depends on if you like the book or not.
I liked it purely for the reason it was fun, was there plot holes, yes, do I care not really. It has what I like in this type of book, funny characters, some spice a smidgeon of a plot and it’s a series following the family.
I will be continuing this series, and I think it will be definitely one I go back to when I’m in a slump as it’s quick and easy to read!
