I love finding a good angsty, mafia story that's hard to put down and by a new arthur for me you couldn't ask for more. I couldn't stop reading from the 1st page to the end it pulls you in and keeps you on the edge of your seat. I absolutely loved Alannah. She is feisty, stubborn, strong with a heart of gold, but I love the fact that she doesn't back down,vso you want her in your corner. Now Connor hmm now he's a man of mystery that you kind of wonder can he be trusted? I don't know, but boy can he bring the heat when these 2 are around each other their chemistry was felt throughout the story. Definitely would recommend.

I flew through the first half of this book. There was so much happening and it was so exciting I just couldn’t put it down. Lana is a fireball! She will not put up with anything from anyone and is fiercely loyal which are qualities I love seeing in a FMC. She definitely holds her own during most of the book and proves how tough she is over and over again. That inner monologue of hers had me giggling several times as she’d think things I know I would be too in the same situation.
As for the spice while it may take some time to get there boy it is worth it when it does! There were some things mixed in those moments that made them feel a tad different from most of your typical spicy scenes. If you like dirty talk from your MMC then you will definitely enjoy this one. Whew.. the things he says sometimes will have you straight melting!
Lastly, the plot was exciting and kept my interest easily. It wasn’t complicated to follow along with either, even though a lot was happening and things were moving at a fast pace. It never felt rushed to me, just high intensity due to the situations they are in. There were for sure a few twists and surprises that had my jaw dropping in shock. Even one moment where I was legit holding my breath not sure if I wanted to know what was happening next.

This was a great standalone mafia book! Alannah is a fiery heroine who has a take charge and take no shits attitude. Loved the friends to enemies to lovers trope between her and Connor. I love a good psychotic villain and this book definitely had one as well as some twists in the book that I didn’t see coming!
