Be With Me
by Gabrielle Sands
4⭐️
3🌶️
Listen, this book started off a little slow and even a bit silly—but then bam—I was suddenly hooked and couldn’t put it down.
We get a modern spin on the classic Romeo and Juliet tale that keeps you on your toes and makes you fall in love right alongside the main characters.
One of my favorite things about this story was Mia. She remained genuinely good throughout the entire book. So often, FMCs bend or compromise themselves to align with the MMC—but not Mia. She stood her ground and, in doing so, inspired Romolo to grow into a better version of himself just to be with her.
Mia is soft, kind, and wears her heart on her sleeve. She loves fearlessly and takes care of everyone around her—yet she’s never really had anyone take care of her. Then along comes Romolo, flipping her world upside down, and she finally finds a place where she belongs—even if it’s with the son of her father’s worst enemy.
Another standout for me was the mystery element. There were so many layers, secrets, and questions woven throughout that kept me fully invested.
This felt like such a classic, well-done mafia romance—with just the right balance of danger, heart, and steam.
This was my first book by this author, but it definitely won’t be my last. If the rest of her work is anything like this one… I’M SOLD.
I received this book as an ARC in exchange for a honest review.
