I am so in love with Bianca and Mikhail. Bianca is the daughter of a capo and interesting development, she is mute. However don’t even think for a moment that being mute stops her from being badass because it doesn’t. Mikhail has touch contact issues and a scarred body and face, which makes him to be very popular being stared at and whatnot. I honestly loved this short book, they are so cute and I loved it. If the book could be longer, I would be even happier.
I want to know what happened to her older sister though. Her older sister has an issue with her and was the one who had basically led Bianca into the trap. I know her Dad ends up dying (very well deserved) but we don’t hear what happens to her and we see nothing of her brother, who has an issue with her husband. A bit of loose ends
but nevertheless an amazing book.
