Such a cool story! Love the relationship between Leo & Freya. It was a unique way for them to meet. Enjoyed this book a lot, and the steamy scenes were 🔥🔥🔥

Writing good, Plot good but it just couldn't keep me invested in the story so I skipped a lot of pages to get through it.

Sophia Peony is a new author to me and this won't be the last of her books I read.

Set the City in Fire is a brilliant example of a contemporary romance as a I can't wait for the sequel.

Freya is just a woman who works her day job and spends her nights at home, occasionally going out with her friends. Little does she know that finding that man while she was hiking will change the course of her life forever. Leo is bossy, domineering, and all up in her business, but the more she gets to know him, the more those start to become her favorite qualities of him. While these two may come from two completely different worlds, they couldn't be more suited for each other. Set the City on Fire tells a story of a man who will burn the city to the ground for the woman he loves. From moments of edge of your seat action to swoon-worthy scenes between the two, it's a must-read for fans of mafia romances.

I think this book is great and well written, it has that touch of mafia but doesn’t really delve into that side of things as it focuses mostly on the relationship between freya and Leo. I think the climax and it’s lead up could have been more detailed and descriptive from Freya’s point of view. But it was tense and I did enjoy the book although a little soppy at points for me. I’ll defo be reading more

I loved Leo and Freya if I had one thing I would love this to have been longer. I really wanted to see the wedding and how they are happy. Leo was amazing and I think I fell for him to be honest I think I have a thing for Mafia men. I can’t wait to read the next one.
