This was hella entertaining- I ❤️ mafia stories and anything mixed with urban fantasy is always a win to me. Excellent worldbuilding and the Jade magic system is super easy to understand and adapt too. Shae is my number 1 however and if anything bad happens to her i'm emailing Ms. Lee all my therapy bills. Also badass female villain? Yes please! And a side note, FUCK. BERO.
