This is a forced marriage trope that actually makes sense! 

This was a decent book. The writing could have been better, and honestly (I'm too far gone) it could have been a hell of a lot darker.

I also didn't feel like the stakes were very high for a mafia romance. There wasn't really any danger and I'm disappointed by that.

The dialogue was good though. I'm a sucker for believable dialogue.
