This one was just okay for me. I liked it but something was lacking for me. I will say though, I don't really like the amnesia trope but this was pretty good. Isabella was my favorite. I loved how strong she was and how she never let anyone push her around because of her age. I liked Luca's brother a lot too. He was good comedic relief.  Luca and Isabella's relationship as whole kinda lacked a bit. The physical side was good and everything but I was hoping to see a more emotional side to them as well and I feel like that lacked. Sure Luca was like "touch and you die" all the time but there still felt like a lack of connection to me. I would have loved more communication or them doing random things?? or little moments??...just something other than sex lol. But with all that being said, it was still pretty good.
