While I am aware of Endiya Carter's romance books, I haven't had the opportunity to explore her other books written under her pen name, Miss J. After reading Bound By A Gangster's Love, I see that the subject matter between Endiya Carter and Miss J is totally different. 

Bound By A Gangster's Love is a dark romance that is spicy and full of drama. I was hooked from the very first page. I don't typically like weak FMCs and the FMC, Makani, in Bound By A Gangster's Love is 100% one of the weakest I've ever read about...ever. However, it was clear that she'd undergo a serious change throughout the book and that is part of what kept me interested. I am excited to see how she grows as a character and I want to see how her relationship with the MMC, Gio, blossoms. 

I definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes a bit of drama and can handle the content warnings. The book is triggering but I believe there will be a positive payoff in the end.
