Bonkers, bananas, and babies. Honestly such a fun ride.

Loved the plot with Sal but Shae just ruins the story for me. Way too much complaining to have any chance of me liking her.

Sweet End
This book was steamy, action packed and interesting. Sweet ending to the series. The romances were more ‘instant love” than I typically prefer (I am more of a slow burn fan), but I do love a HEA or HFN ending

Shae & Salvatore have been my favorite couple since Beautiful & Dirty and I've been anticipating their full-length book! The way this age-gap couple has me by the goddamned heartstrings!!! The Family is the best mafia romance series I've read.

This was a nice conclusion to the series but it has the same tropes as the last two - Jackson is the onyl author that can get me on board with instalove and super horny characters.
I loved Shae and Salvatore in Beautiful & Dirty and just the glimpse into a possible future but it also made you not think very hard about what their future might actually look like. The plot in The Don is fine, the action maybe not as suspenseful as I would like but fun, the characters still feel like themselves. But it never fully won me over.
The aunties in the last chapter are hilarious!

I loved seeing Shae and Salvo getting back together and learning more about each other. There was a lot to keep track of but it worked out in the end. I loved it all.
