The Predator -  Runyx 

BOOK ONE in the Dark Verse Series 

Synopsis ~

I picked this book up because I was in the mood to read a Mafia book and I had heard this book was good. This story follows our FMC Morana who is part of the Shadow Port Mafia. She happened to make these codes that can ruin their rival mafia Family which is the Outfit Mafia, who our MMC is from Tristian Caine. Somehow these codes go missing and Tristian Caine is her lead suspect. 

I LOVED THIS BOOK. There was nothing i did not like about this book, however it is written in THIRD POV so if you do not like that this book will most likely not be for you. This is a self published book, there are some grammar errors and if that bothers you don’t read it. 

This book was just chiefs kiss 💋. I loved everything to the plot to the characters. Runyx knows how to write a really good tension filled antsy romance because omg was the eye contact in this book to die for. I could literally feel the tension and eye contact through the book. I love how badass out Morana is that was really refreshing to see in a mafia book. Now Tristian Caine is EXTREMELY morally grey and a major red flag, did I still love him yes. There is 2 spicy scenes in here that are hot and heavy. The plot left me on the edge of my seat and finding out the real reason why Tristian HATED Morana was so shocking and I didn’t see coming. The ending omg it was amazing it met my expectations. This book I didn’t really expect to like but it shocked me how much I enjoyed it. This is my first 5 star of the year and I can’t wait to read more from this author.
