This is a dark romance written by a Black woman with a Black female main character and a French male and a love interest. There were definitely many parts of this story that would have creeped me out or unsettled me if anybody I had known or even I had been involved in those situations.

So, on the one hand, I'm completely against a lot of the things that are happening in the story in the ways that the male love innterest operates in general. 

On the other hand, I'm really think I finally see with the dark romance girl as you're talking about when they say they love their mafia romances! If I suspend my belief and live in the land of disillusionment, then this was hot. In fantasy land only, not the real world. 

Touché, Kenya Wright, Touché.
