This book was devourable! I literally had to force myself to stop reading to study for my upcoming test and get my teacher's notes down for the incoming sub! Lord the heat and chemistry between Dante and Vivian melted my bones until they were liquid. The friction and intensity that the story has built the momentum you open the book! Vivian Lau may come from new money, but she isn't someone who is dependent on her family to make it in the world! However, sometimes family does have an impact on how she does things, and is that always for her benefit or theirs? How does Dante Russo fit into her picture, was he in her picture of the future prior? Dante is an Italian businessman who doesn't take no for an answer and demands perfection everywhere he goes, plus the most eligible bachelor of the Manhattan Social Elite! When Vivian enters his circle, life will never be the same for Mr. Russo  The author definitely created conflict in the story that can be relatable for Nouveau Money vs Old Money, but also what scenarios could be like for Asian, or ethnic, populations in general, to have success in the Elite world. It was a subtle conflict of the story, but one that the reader can't help but think about! Either way, the story is a MUST READ NOW and you won't be able to release it until you are on the final page!
