It was okay. Lots of misogyny (believe it or not, you can have mafia romances without misogyny!) and a massive miscommunication trope that just was not my thing, personally. Having the dual perspective really just highlighted the lack of communication between the MMC and FMC. I’ve enjoyed other books written by this author so thought it was a good call buying the whole series this book is the first of, but I am in no rush to read the rest of them as of now. Three stars because it was the first book Willow Winters wrote and certainly could’ve been worse.

I really liked the world building for this book. It surprisedly kept my interest, the audiobook was really lovely done. It was a bit dramatic at some points but then again most mafia romances are. The spicy moments were kinda boring, they all seemed rushed. I liked the ending but not so much the epilogue; it seemed a bit too heteronormative for me.
