dark emotional fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated

3.0

all the classic aspects of a mafia book covered, honestly wish I saw more of Daisy 😒

cassie823's review against another edition

4.25

Ronan is one of my favorite men ever, genuinely. This man is so big and bad, but the absolute sweetest there is. His story is heartbreaking and I love him so much.

 I only wish we had seen more closure on his part, more healing. Or at least more details of it, especially from his pov.

 Also Ronans character was so well developed and was genuinely so wonderful, but sadly Sasha’s fell a bit flat.  Don’t get me wrong she was enjoyable, but I wanted more. 

And I felt as though we were missing the “healing” part of Sasha’s story too. She had trauma she should have been working on as well, and we just didn’t rlly see that. 
The ending felt a bit rushed and sadly, again, flat. For 75% of this book I thought I would be a 5/5⭐️ Read and sadly the last 25% just didn’t compare to the rest of the book. 
2.75/5🌶
