Re read June 2024⬇️
It’s been ages since I’ve read a mafia book and this one was so good and addictive. I have to say this book had one of the hottest sexual buildups I’ve read. Even though the MC didn’t like each other at first, their chemistry was undeniable. Another thing I loved about this book was the “cosa nostra” how true it stayed to the kind of lifestyle the made men lived not just for them, but for their women.
Our H Nicolas, was a brutal unapologetic Don set in his traditional ways, but with our h Elena, he found himself making exceptions. I liked Elena I thought she was perfect for Nicolas. She knew the life too with her father being a Don as well. I like that she was girly always in her heals and her dry sense of humor (I think she got it from her Nona) lol!
I’m gonna say again this book was a slow burn but so so good and that first kiss wow! You’ll understand if you read it! There was some miscommunication between Elena and Nicolas but it was never frustrating for me, and it never kept them apart. I loved all the characters from both sides of the family and I hope they all get their own story. I really really hope Sebastian gets his own book!
The only thing that was missing for me was a bit more action. But it was dam near perfect. One of my favorite of the year for sure. Can’t wait for Gianna and Christian book! ♥️
