Heart of a Monster by Shain Rose

2.0

Was an alright book. Loved the aesthetic, the whole Mafia, dark romance. However i found the plot a little....dead. But hopefully after reading the second book it will be better. I feel like Katie's feelings for Bastian was a little rushed but her and Rome.... Damn i loved the tension between them. How he fought so hard to not give in to her but he did :)
Loved how they had the letters and he called her Cleopatra/Cleo. It was cute! How she kept trying to get his attention in the beginning, going to his bar, introducing friends and making mutual ones.
Just wished it was a little more interesting. The writing was great! The plot just needed a little tweaking though.
Hopefully the 2nd book is better, ive heard it is.
