I loved Sloane’s dream of opening a body positive, safe space for young girls. I can also 100% relate to all the experiences and feeling she had growing up as a fat person but the constant comments about the “unhealthy” food ruined those great moments for me. The only time food was mentioned in this book it was immediately categorized as “healthy” or “unhealthy” not only can that be triggering for people with eating disorders it’s just unnecessary. It’s a 300 page mafia romance let’s spend that word count on something else.
Declan’s pro-life hypocrisy was also a big side-eye. I appreciate that Sloane immediately calls him out on it but when you literally spend the book beheading people for doing the same job you do- criminally offensive side eye.

Around the 50% mark is where things started to go south for me. From the point they get together to almost 75%, pretty much nothing by sx happens. Not to mention all the “sir” being used, just not my cup of tea. There’s no real plot advancement and the more I read the more it really felt like Sloane was just experiencing Stockholm syndrome.
Around 80% is where things went off the rails and became just so unbelievable. I realized I didn’t really care what happened to any of the characters and didn’t feel any true connection between mmc/fmc.
Finally the “epilogue” doesn’t even include the two main characters. It’s basically just a teaser for the next book which I really don’t care about, at least give some future blurb about the main characters.
