I don't think I will ever not love anything S.J. Tilly writes. Her stories, the spice, the characters are all amazing. I will say this was probably my least favorite book in the series so far, but it was still pretty dang good!!! There were just a few nonconsensual things (nothing sexual) that happen in this book that really bothered me. Nero was unhinged, but Dom just does whatever the hell he wants. That is totally fine for his character and something I would expect from a mafia kingpin. This book wasn't rated 4-stars because I found him unlovable. I actually found both main characters to have depth and I went back and forth on my feelings for Dom throughout the book, which is exactly what Val did too. S.J. did an amazing job writing his character and making me share feelings with the FMC throughout the book. There were times in this book that I almost cried with Val because I was so hurt or frustrated for/with her. I definitely recommend the entire Alliance Series thus far to those who enjoy mafia romances. You won't be disappointed!
