Thank you for this Arc.
This was everything you want in a mafia romance!! I couldn't put it down. Sometimes with spicy books the plot can be forgotten, this was not the case with this book. Can't wait to read book 2.

I read this ARC in exchange for an honest review
All opinions and thoughts are mine
This is a new author to me but the blurb was interesting
I absolutely devoured this - couldn't put it down
Yes its explicit but the premise of the book is tough
Loved the twists and turns and have now the second book to read
Can't wait

Thank you NetGalley for the eARC. Oh my GOSHH is all I can say after finishing this. It was so good! I even skipped most of the dirty stuff to get to the good stuff! It was all that and then some. Twists, turns, mafia, love, first love, sex , murder - all the good things you want in a book! I am on my way to book 2 but man oh man if you havent read this...YOU NEED TO

This book was really good, couldn't put it down it was full of suspense, spice and a rollercoaster of emotions. Can't wait to read more by this author.

Sorry, I'm giving up at about 15%. I am struggling with the editing and writing too much, which is a shame because I think the chemistry and plot are right up my street.
In the bit that I've read there is some really poor grammar, lack of punctuation and spelling mistakes (he knells not kneels beside a body) sentences that run three lines long, but have no punctuation so I had to read them multiple times to understand them.
Eyes look into eyes or eyes are mentioned 413 times throughout this book. Someone hisses 42 times and hell is mentioned 126 times. It's all too repetitive and reliant on eyes giving conversations.
There is a lot of tell don't show. She did something angrily instead of letting her throw things about the room show me that she was angry.
Shame. I think if this had some proper editing and a good clean-up, then I would have eaten it up.
Read as a Netgalley ARC.
