4.0

3.5⭐️
I cant really explain what I didn’t like about this book.
Olivia is originally from Australia but she went to Italy for a vacation and Enrico is a policeman working in Rome-I think it was rome-. They met in a restaurant. Olivia was reading the menu when Rico came to her and asked if she needed help reading-because the menu was obviously in Italian and she didn’t understand anything-. So he helped her, they got along really well, ate together and also went back to his apartment to have a little fun with each other. Rico’s Father and grandfather were murdered in a car crash and Rico found out the truth about his family. They were the mafia. At that point Rico and Olivia had plans to go out the next weekend but with the death of ricos grandfather and father they didn’t meet up and he ignored her. Two years later Olivia went back to Italy because of a job offer. She then had a date and surprise surprise Rico is in the same restaurant. Why? Well, he has been following her or more people who work for him had an eye on her. He even got her the job. Fast forward they are a couple but he can’t marry her because she’s not Italian and blabla he does anyway and they have kids.

To be honest I don’t really remember much of the book. I did, however, enjoy it but it was also kind of long.
