The Boss by Melanie Moreland was an engaging and unique read. I loved how it’s like a reverse mafia group. The way that Matteo first saves Evie with a marriage of convenience sets the stage for the whole story in such a good way. Matteo is the epitome of protective savior. His need to keep Evie safe was commendable, but allowed for conflict and character growth. The traumas that Evie went through were tough and made me really feel for her. I thoroughly enjoyed this book!
