ARC Review

What a ride!  This book ticked sooo many boxes for me...

Dark Mafia Romance
Enemies to Lovers
Age-Gap
Morally Gray MMC
Fiesty FMC

The action jumps right in from the first page, as Adalina is kidnapped from her 21st birthday party.  I was hooked from the start and devoured it in one sitting.  It was a well-written dark romance full of revenge, chaos, and violence.  It gave me everything I wanted out of a dark mafia romance and left me wanting more.  Dante and Adalina have instant chemistry that only builds throughout.  My only complaint is the third act "conflict" felt out of line with the character development in the rest of the book.  Excited to read more in this universe!
