FOUR STARS!!
The book was as amazing as any other book written by Cora, if not more. I love the multiple POVs. And I loved how they went through so much but at the end found each other. Aurora and Nevio together is the best thing ever.
I loved the book Cora!! Thank you for giving us this. It's a must read people.

dnf at 50%, it started soooo good I really enjoyed it and then THAT scene came I was like hell no, I didn't wait years to read that. I'm so mad and disappointed...I could cry. But I really enjoyed the first half of it so the 3 stars is for that. waisted potential!!!!

Immediately after I finished this book, I gave it 4 stars; today I’ve decided it’s a 3 star book
Hell tomorrow, I can decided it’s a 2 star book and No it’s not for the reason you think because funny enough I actually like the big spoiler that is Nevio having a bastard son, I also like the book as a whole but when I analyze it on individual points that make the PLOT, I just want to laugh.
______________
First of all, what the fuck is my girl Aurora? Like bruh have you no back-bone at all? She was pathetic. Very embarrassingly so. Like I don’t remember when last I wanted to slap someone that was not real so hard their ear started ringing but Aurora? By God she was alot. Which kind of threw me off because? Her character is said to be a “ton boy” so I was expecting more fight! More power! More passion but no. From the beginning of this book, Rory was looking for the bare minimum and till the time Nevio proposed to her, she got THE BARE MINIMUM. Which is again PATHETIC.
_______________
For stage two, we have Nevio

Cora needs to step it up. These last few haven't been hitting like Remo, Dante and Ninos stories. They all feel very shallow with absolutely no depth or complexity

♥︎ Cora Reilly's mafia romance series has always had a special place in my heart, so naturally, I couldn't resist the opportunity to listen to Nevio Falcone and Aurora Scuderi's story. Let me tell you, this story had me on the edge of my seat, gripped by its twists and turns.
♡︎ Nevio Falcone, a man born into the Camorra family in Las Vegas. He’s Unhinged and dangerous it runs in his DNA. If his father, Remo, the Capo, is feared by all, imagine the chaos that Nevio could unleash. But things take a messy turn when Nevio sets his sights on the daughter of his father's enforcer.
♡︎ I never expected Nevio to be this savage, his impulses uncontrollable. It was like watching a disaster waiting to happen, and poor Aurora was caught in the crossfire, enduring his madness. The way these two went round and round in circles, causing havoc for their families, was downright unnerving. There were moments when Nevio was difficult to like, a true anti-hero, yet I couldn't tear myself away from his story. I was glued to my earbuds, eagerly anticipating one of his explosive rampages. He kept me on my toes, that's for sure!
♥︎ The supporting characters and glimpses of the previous generation added an extra layer of excitement to the story. I adored their dynamics and the witty inside jokes that Cora sprinkled throughout, nodding to her previous series. The banter between the Falcone brothers and the Holy Trinity trio had me completely invested.
♥︎ This book was brought to life by the incredible narrators, JF Harding and Angelina Rocca, who were the perfect choice for portraying Nevio and Aurora. Despite the multitude of characters they had to embody, I never felt lost or overwhelmed. Their voices were crystal clear, and their pacing was impeccable. Additionally, Jacob Morgan, Lucy Rivers, and Tor Thom made appearances, lending their talents to narrate a few chapters from the parents' point of view. This cast received nothing but praise from me.
♡︎ If you're in search of a dark and intense mafia romance, look no further. This story delves deep into the world of organized crime, showcasing the most unhinged characters.
