Miko and Nessa were great together. A pretty on the nose Beauty and the Beast tale, with some Hades and Persephone thrown in and a little bit of forbidden romance. I didn’t like this one quite as much as Cal and Aida’s story, which surprised me. But their banter was top notch, whereas the dynamic with Miko was more sober and serious.
This was a light read in terms of themes, too. The most emotionally challenging component was the very first chapter and learning what happened to Miko’s sister, which set him on the mafia path.
Overall a very enjoyable read. No flaws except one typo in there that I saw, the storytelling and romance were lovely and the plot was just tense enough to keep it interesting without real stomach churning drama and high stakes.
