You're the girl I killed for and you're the woman I'd die for.
I didn't like it as much (but I didn't expect it anyway) as the previous book. Whereas in the previous one I felt a kind of spark, here now I felt that everything was gone.
Morana seemed to have relapsed, not very, but meaningful enough for me to feel. She remained strong and persistent, but something changed about her that I can't put anywhere inside myself and don't want to. I couldn't leave Tristan like that any more, everything I feared had happened inside him, he had become the kind of person I was unable to identify with in any way. Dante is the tip of my heart, I just loved him so much that I almost regret not wanting to continue this book—at least not now.
The love I praised so high was transformed, in my own way, into something different that I'm not sure if I like. Possesive, overprotective, and forced became the whole thing, which I don't like.
This time, the plot was more fast-paced than the previous one, and a lot more secrets are revealed — ones that cannot be ignored. In short, everything was shattered by this book, but in the best sense of the word, we got new connections to the past and a new perspective, and all I'm sure is that this isn't the end, far from it, Luna deserves to know that her brother fought so hard for her. The pace was a bit slower for me than it should have been, but the time jumps weren't distracting at all. The end is open, but not so urgent.
I'd say all in all, one went away, it wasn't outstanding, it wasn't burn-shaking, maybe a little shocking, but none of it was strong enough to necessarily jump to the next book.

Honestly, I have the same complaints as the first book. It is incredibly repetitive. WE GET IT! He has beautiful blue eyes and sounds like whiskey and sin. Care to repeat it for the thousandth time? The writing isn't really great. There is a whole lot of telling instead of showing. ALSO... I am not a fan of 3rd POV, so there's that.
The story line could have been really interesting and this book could have been really good with more editing and revising. As it was the twists were pretty obvious.
I think Dante is the most interesting character of the 3. I am tempted to continue the series just to read his book.
I did appreciate the development of Tristan's character and how he communicated in more than just grunts throughout this book. I think the short timeline of his character's progression and emotional awareness was pretty unrealistic.
Morana continued to be very idealistic and naive.
So mobsters not believe in therapy? Could be helpful. Just saying.
Tropes: enemies to lovers, mafia, found family
