I really enjoyed the dark comedic twist to this dark enemies to lovers romance. I thought Danica and Connor were so funny - they bickered like a married couple from damn near the moment they met. Danica was sassy, damaged and sexy - she was my favorite! I love how she didn’t take any shit and was just this bad ass FMC. But god has girl been through so fucking much!
The chemistry between the MCs was really good and the flow of this story was easy for follow along even with the time jumps between the past and the present. I like how flashbacks were used to sort of answer questions as they came along. Also showed that the main conflict wasn’t as black and white as it was thought to be.
This is a dark romance so please make sure to check trigger warnings before reading - this is also a crime/mafia background storyline so there is a lot of violence, 🩸 and 🔪 !
Graphic: Gun violence, Sexual content, Blood, and Murder
