"This Is A Really Good Read You Dont Even Have To Read The Other Books First I Loved The Different Style In This One And It Truly Did Have Some Wild Twists"
Amy Santi
"Super icky that she’s scouted to be a wife at 17 and the day she turns 18 her life is given to a mafia boss with no regard for what she wants. That said, this book turned out to be really good, they figured each other out and became good for each other. Lots of anticipation for the dangerous aspects and for the family ties."

"Character development was on point, but age gap was a tad bit unsettling, although I'm pretty sure thats why people read this and like it."

"I had to dnf this book.<br/><br/>The writing was poor and juvenile, there was so much telling not showing and handholding. Your readers are smart enough to read subtext. Be subtle. Please. Jfc.<br/><br/>Also, the decision to have her introduced to him when she’s 17? Vom. It didn’t need that. Also, the fact that she dresses specifically like a small girl? Gross. Really lay into the pedo subtext. I know he multiple times says how gross it is, but it doesn’t make it better.<br/><br/>Not to mention, animal abuse. There’s straight up animal abuse done by the hero, and that’s a hard pass. 0/10, would never recommend to a friend"

"It was an okay book. Some nice things some bad things. I loved the wholesome scenes. Personally found chunks of the story line a bit rushed/slow so I wasn’t clinging on to each page."

"Soft and good story line. Mildly spice but at the end a feel good story. The Mafia part doesn’t take too much place."
