This was probably more of a 3.5 for me but rounded up! We read this in hand with Verve for our book club so thank you for the gifted book!

I thought the “mafia” styled romance was fun and exciting, something we’ve all read before but still enjoyable. Evie was honestly a relatable character who really grabs you from the beginning. This book was on the short side and definitely hit all the tropes spot on. It didn’t give me a wow factor but I did finish the book and would probably read the next one! I would have liked a little more turmoil in the beginning when she sees the crime and the decision is made about the arranged-fake marriage but maybe I just like enemies to lovers a little TOO much lol.
