I liked things and I didn't like things. I would like nico and then he'd say or do something that was a bit much for me. but I do love a morally gray guy so it was hard for me to dislike him all together. some very cute moments. good banter. mild spice.

the overall plot reminded me a lot of 50 shades (I won't spoil it). falls in love super quick and neither character believe the other could love them so it's a slow burn.

overall if you like mafia romances yes I'd recommend it. they're just not top of the list for me, but I wanted to give it a try. I also listened to the audiobook and I think reading would have been better. I'd give this 2.5.
