5.0 out of 5 stars A light -and beautiful- mafia romance novel
If we're talking about arranged marriage novels, then this one is a MUST. LJ Shen does it again bringing us an entire different novel and a beautiful romance story. Even though is a little predictable, this book it's going to devour you and vice versa. Seriously recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it
What to say?? LJ Shen is a goddess in writing, her words are like poetry with lots of meaning and emotions that can’t be deciphered in one go. Reading a physical copy of the book is absolutely different from an ebook and I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this one.
Francesca & Wolfe were in an arranged marriage setup which took so many different turns and twists. They were superbly engaging and hooked me to the story, making me feel bad for it to have ended. I need more of them.
The banter in the book is freaking mind-blowing. Every interaction had something different to give. Every chapter had something good to offer with this brilliant dual PoV story. The plot is admirable and the suspense is heartfelt. I will definitely recommend the book to everyone.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mafia romance
This was an ok read, i enjoyed the book. I did have some minor issues with the female character tho for a little to long way in for my linking, was a very childish way of acting but when getting to know her bit more it was easier to read the book. It was still a 4⭐ for me.
