My first from S.J. Tilly and I've enjoyed every bit of it. 

Super binge-worthy, because it's not as heavy as we expect mafia novels should always be.
 
The charm Nero and Payton have, had me giggling and kicking. 

I'm not usually a fan of instant love, but not on this one. They just have that strong chemistry. 

I am looking forward on reading the rest of this series.

I loved every part of this book it was so freaking good are male main character Nero is definitely in my top 5 if not three favorite male main characters in books I’ve read his appearance was nice the way he spoke his words ugh😩 I’ve never read a book we’re the main characters meet like this it was so good i lived for it and oh my goodness his possessiveness over are female main character Payton how he stalks her😩 when he takes her virginity😏😩I just loved every scene inside this entire book I cannot wait to read the other books in this series this is a happy ending in both ways😏 with no cliffhangers it’s definitely spicy🌶️🌶️🌶️it has no cheating and no love triangles there is one scene though we’re some people may find as cheating but I will say he doesn’t kiss or have sex with another girl so don’t think that🤣 other then that we’re good some of the tropes are virgin heroine, age gap, billionaire romance, grumpy x sunshine and I think a couple more I totally recommend this book do good😍😍overall I knew I was gonna rate this book a 5 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from the beginning

I really wanted this book to be good. It had so much hype surrounding it that I was prepared for some epic love story with a mafia boss and a touch her and die trope. 
I guess, technically,  this story could be considered that,  but it tried WAY to hard and felt force all around. I was instantly pulled in from the moment Nero showed up on her balcony. I thought, "This is it! This is how you start a story!" I wanted them to sit on the couch and just laugh at the movie as if they were old friends and build a legit friendship. Her falling asleep with a total stranger on the run from the cops right next to her? It's not gonna happen. Yeh, right.  L-7 WEENIE!  The instant love/obsession was a bit ridiculous, and it took WAY too long in the book for any action to happen and when it does?? Disappointed isn't even a strong enough word to describe the letdown.  The author shouldn't spent even a little bit of time building a friendship or literally any other reason for Nero to fall in love beside she was pretty and had a nightmare 🙄 and then get mad later because someone else calls her just "pretty." Dude had the ability, but the relationship is totally shallow, and that's hard to connect with.
