“Be slow with your fists 
But fight for things that matter.”

 

I spoke too soon, this is my new favorite from the series! 

The storyline is actually pretty interesting with a slight mystery of finding an assassin whose trying to eliminate Riona and Raylan comes to the rescue as a 24/7 bodyguard…! 

I also like the change of scenery closer to nature with Raylan’s ranch instead of playing around Chicago city. 

 

Riona reminds me of Nesta, I wasn’t a huge fan of her in the beginning but this book changes the way I see Riona. There’s a reason to her cold demeanour, she actually feels more than she let on. 

I absolutely adore Raylan (he reminds me of Cassian) - he’s flirty, chatty but also a sweetheart which really annoyed Riona but he’s transforms to something hot and wild when he enter the bedroom…. 

Despite how different they seem, they actually fit in together like puzzle pieces. 

 

Overall, this book is a great addition to the series that comes with a satisfying ending! 

Fans of enemies-to-lovers and bodyguard romance definitely need to try reading this book! 

 

I received an advanced review copy for free through Netgalley, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. Huge thank you to the author and publisher!

I love a good bodyguard/client romance 🥹 and I love that Riona saved herself (to an extent) at the end. Only thing was there was some chunk in the middle where you almost forgot about the assassin out to get her, which is a pretty big piece of the story 😅 but it rounded out so well!

This book has the same plot line as the book before. A little boring at time, but I liked the ranch scenes.

3⭐️ 3.25🌶️

Mafia Romance

First person

Dual POV

Bodyguard romance

Forced proximity

This book follows a different child in the mafia family and jumps straight into the action. A always appreciate that the previous book give a decent amount of set up for whoever is the focus of the next book all while also giving cameos of the ones earlier in the series.
