4,5 possibly 5 but idk I think Dante’s book might remind me for Persuasion and I’m a sucker for that trope. This was great I liked the romance and the plot was fun and had me anxious but in a good way.

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.
