Firstly, this was no bully romance. Nero was promised to be a vicious psychopath, but he actually was pretty soft and sweet (for a mafia romance mmc).

I was expecting the plot lines to be more suspenseful and they had the promise to make an addicting story, but they fell a bit flat. Which on the other hand, made this a cosy and easy read.

Nero was kind of misogynistic and Camille was a typical I’m-not-like-other-girls-character (but more in a way that she was written from that viewpoint and intention, but Cam herself didn’t really have that attitude). The relationship between Nero and Camille developed kind of weirdly, I feel like it didn’t have enough time to develop and suddenly they just were together.

Overall an entertaining, easy and quick read, and pretty much what I hoped for going in!

Savage Lover is the third book in the Brutal Birthright series, and is about Nero Gallo. Nero is at a house party at the beginning of the story, and he comes to the defense of Camille Rivera. She’s getting harassed by some people she knew in high school while looking for her 17 year old brother, Vic. Camille finally finds him and pulls him out of the party. While driving him home she discovers that he’s been selling the street drug Molly on the side for a guy named Levi. Unfortunately they get pulled over, and the bag of drugs he had get confiscated by a man named Officer Matthew Schultz. In order for her brother Vic not to get in trouble Camille says the drugs are hers. Schultz let’s them go for the night then comes to see her at her father’s autobody shop where she works the next day. He convinces her to become his confidential informant in regards to Levi by selling drugs for Levi. She then would report back to him everything that goes down, including the location of the lab where he makes the drugs. Camille reluctantly agrees, and goes to Levi’s place to convince him to let her take her brother’s place selling drugs for him. He takes her on as a dealer. She never actually sells the drugs, she just pretends she does, with Shultz giving her a wad of cash each time to give to Levi.

Meanwhile the Gallos are on to their next project with Gallo Construction. Nero has the idea for the next project which would be the South Works site. They don’t have enough capital at the moment for it, despite partnering with the Griffins combined. So Nero gets the idea to rob Alliance Bank, cozying up to Raymond Page, the owner of the bank’s daughter, Bella.

Camille finds out her father has cancer, and convinces Nero to let her in on the heist as the getaway driver. She wants in on it so she can help pay her dad’s medical bills, and pay for Vic’s upcoming college. He eventually agrees. All the while both Nero and Camille are falling for each other, as the confide more and more in each other.

Fantastic. The heist in this is so damn fun and dramatic, also a really good way of including the whole Gallo family in the book. It took a really really long time for the relationship to build into anything tangible, and that felt like a lot of wasted time at the start of the book.

Cop forces the main female character to be a CI and it's pretty damn traumatic.
