Definitely giving a Fast and Furious mixed with Oceans 11 vibe. I really liked Camille and Nero! She is a bit of an underdog who you cannot help but root for. She is passionate, strong, and smart. He is a hot head, who is the definition of a bad boy. 

Camille lives with her brother and father, they are struggling and her father is sick. Her brother gets tangled up with a drug dealer and is caught with Ecstasy in his backpack by a cop. Camille takes the fall for her brother and is forced to become a CI. She has had some bad luck and is trying all she can to get her brother a better life.
 
Her connection to Nero is deep and emotional. They had so much chemistry and were so vulnerable with each other.


This one is definitely more of a slow burn compared to the others, which I loved.  I loved seeing the bits and pieces of Nero's family throughout. I found this plot to be more believable than the previous books. 

Tropes: Good girl/bad boy, opposites attract, slow burn

I enjoyed Savage Lover but felt the romance wasn’t as strong as the previous two books in the series. I like Camille and Nero but I feel like their romantic journey was on the pages less than Aida/Callum and Nessa/Miko which prevented the reader from emotionally connecting with them as a couple. That being said I still couldn’t put this book down. I would recommend this book!

Another quick, easy read. This wasn’t my favourite from the series, I found the relationship development between Nico and Camille to be a bit contrived with them falling for each other based on no real reason. BUT it was still enjoyable and I was still rooting for them. The spicy bits were pretty hot too.

This book was so refreshing! Savage Lover wasn't as mafia heavy as the previous two books, personally, I wouldn't classify it as a "dark romance", but no worries, it was still packed with loads of action!

I loved Camille! She's sweet, caring, and a boss! I mean hello, she works in a male dominant career and will check anyone who thinks she knows less than just because she's a woman. LOVE IT!! I loved Camille and Nero together! In the first two books, Nero was described as the hot-headed, playboy brother. I was expecting him to be such a douche to Camille, but it was the complete opposite. Even when he didn't know her that well, he was still very gentle with her; and when they became an official couple, that gentleness just grew. I would've liked to see a little bit more depth into their relationship. To me, their love story felt a bit rushed due to the situations they had going on separately but all in all, I still really enjoyed them.

If I had t rank the B.B. couples so far, it would be:
1) Aida & Callum
2)Nessa & Miko; Camille & Nero tied for second
