Savage Lover is a bit different compare to the first two books, I really like the progress of how the main characters come to like each other. Even though there’s not a lot of mafia activity on this story beside planning a bank heist. 

 

Nero and Camille is giving a good girl x bad boy kinda vibes, they are totally polar opposites of each other. 

I admire Camille’s character, she’s very brave, determined and love her family dearly that she’s willing to do anything for them. 

I also love to see the other side from Nero’s bad boy personality, he’s so much more than that once we got to know him a little bit more in here. 

 

Overall, it’s a good addition to the series although it’s missing the mafia elements a little bit but I was still able to enjoy this fast-paced romance with a bit of Fast & Furious vibes! 

 

I received an advanced review copy for free through Netgalley, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. Huge thank you to the author and publisher!
