Unholy Vows
by Mila Kane
(I received an ARC for this book)
Trigger Warnings include:
kidnapping, stalking, BC tampering and breeding, on page murder and torture
All the dark mafia romances I’ve devoured, and this one stands out perfectly! Charlie tested Renato De Sanctis’s patience, his sanity, and his control. Which is such a “usual” thing for the mafia romance trope. BUT it’s so rare for the big bad wolf to cheer her on when she’s stubborn, when she crosses his lines, when she defies him, when she has secrets, when she goes behind his back. Every time Ren was right there thinking “that’s my girl” instead of threatening her or treating her differently just because she was human. Literally a delight for me! I was barely 15% in when Renato’s power made me blush. He killed a man, but that’s beside the point. There was plenty of outside “powers that be”, but instead of causing damage to their…blossoming relationship, it only tugged them closer. The magical powers of forced marriage in a mafia! A couple other things I loved that I HAVE to point out: it melted me every single time Ren reminded Charlie just how important and worthy she is just the way she was, and there’s some classic reading that you definitely don’t want to miss out on!

• “You are mine, aren’t you? My devoted disciple?”
• “Every time you lie about that, I’ll make you taste yourself.”
• “You can’t fight destiny. It’ll find you, every single time. I’ll find you, every single time.”
• “If you think biting me will prevent me putting anything else in your mouth, you’re wrong.”
• “You’re not lost anymore. I’ve found you, and I’m keeping you.”
• “I will always keep you safe, from everyone but myself.”
• “I could come from just your eyes on me.”

• “No one gags my wife but me.”
• “I told you, not even an angel with a flaming sword could keep you from me.”

• “I promised you my soul, and you have to be alive to claim it.”
