Sloan makes a deal to be Krupin's mob doctor in order to pay off her father's enormous debt. While working for him she meets Snow, an underground boxer.
This one was slightly better than the first. The story line at least made more sense.
Sloan was willing to give up her future to save her ungrateful parents. She was naive and sheltered from the reality of her family's situation. She "protected" her family by throwing herself to the wolves. Stupid or brave?
Snow was a boxer with a soft side for Sloan and a cat. That was about as interesting as he got. Both of these characters were pretty flat. I wasn't invested in their relationship at all as it was very Insta-love.
Tropes: mafia, boxer MMC, doctor FMC, opposites attract, Insta-love

The relationship feels very under developed. They meet and from absolutely nothing have a random connection, then they fuck, and suddenly they are in love??
It was entertaining, even if it wasn't very good.

Omg I liked this one a lotttt more than I thought I would and probably more than most any of the other Sophie Lark books I’ve read since finishing the Kingmakers series :) the only exception is maybe Ivan (the first book in the Underworld series which this is the second to even tho for some reason it doesn’t say that on here)
Anyways I really really liked their dynamic and I loved them in Kingmakers so it was really nice to see them again :)
There was some really dark stuff in the middle that tbh I skipped through cause I just can’t deal with that but otherwise really enjoyed it :)

This book was okay. I definitely liked the first one more. I wish the ending was more drawn out I wanted to see what Stepanov was going to do when told he couldn't have Sasha. The immediate cut was a bit jarring
