Say I Do by Brea Alepoú, Skyler Snow
5.0

Harlow and Benito, what a perfect murder-husband pair they are. Say I Do is an insanely violent, primal, and possessive mafia romance that I devoured from beginning to end. Harlow and Benito are the epitome of enemies to lovers due to their forced marriage and genuine disdain for one another. Their slow-burn, hate-to-love romance takes its time and I couldn't be more obsessed with these two.

I love that in the beginning, both characters hate each other so much that their only communication style is violence and petty games toward one another. Harlow and Benito hate their arranged marriage, but underneath their simmering anger is a spark of attraction that slowly builds over time.

Both Harlow and Benito get under each other's skin, which makes for fantastic scenes between the two as they adjust to married life. Their explosive chemistry and watching their relationship grow from immediate hatred and disdain, to barely tolerable, to eventually acceptance is a joy to see.

Say I Do is a great addition to the Vitale Brothers Series. I never wanted this story to end, I was enraptured by Benito and Harlow's insanely perfect violent dynamic, making for an entertaining and unpredictable mafia romance. Cannot wait for the next one!!!
