There was so much misogyny in this book. This was my first mafia romance, so maybe it’s just part of the genre, but it’s definitely not for me. I particularly hated the scene where he pushed her into a pool . I don’t mind a morally grey MMC, but I prefer when that darkness is reserved for everyone except his woman. With her, I want him to be gentle, protective, and a stark contrast to how he treats the rest of the world. On the plus side, though, the spice was absolutely SPICING. 🔥
