After reading Irene Bahrd’s “Love at all Cost” series, I kinda fell in love with her unhinged men, strong women, and hilarious parody-style of writing. Picking up this mafia romance and adding J.L. Quick to the mix and everything has leveled up. This novella starts off with a bang (literally 😉) and quickly dives into madness. Richard/Dick is such a lovable doofus at times and Catarina/Cat is such a clever yet grumpy assassin. If you’re looking for a fun, ri-dick-ulous, mafia romance then this should be your next read.

Another unhinged yet totally lovable and fun read: from the iconic thirsty dedication, to the hilarious content warnings, this book is for anyone looking for a spicy, fun, mafia age-gap romance for Valentine’s Day or Super Bowl weekend.

(Received this as an ARC from Happily Booked PR, but all thoughts are my own!)
