This is hovering between 3 and 4 for me. I loved the idea of the feuding Italian families, but it got confusing about whose love story we should focus on. I know for the most part it was Nora and Sebastian and I loved them together but I feel like it took a while for them to get their footing. They had a third-act break-up when they weren't officially together, which kind of rubbed me the wrong way. Some of the humor had me cackling and I really loved some of the side characters. Shout out to Nella for being the star here! I did love the spice that Hart included. I was hanging onto every word between Sebastian and Nora and I was not disappointed.  There was just too much going on for me to fully be invested in what was happening. Thank you to Netgalley and Entangled for an e-ARC to read and review!
