💭
As someone who is a sucker for kids I was really excited for this one, but I have to say I have mixed reviews about it.
As for the good, I wanna congratulate Bree for the work she pulled out in this book. I can tell she invested more time searching stuff and her writting improved a lot. I did love the scenes between Niko and Kon and how romantic this book is, compared to her other ones.
Another thing I did love is how Bree managed to connect the main plot with all the upcoming storylines for the side characters. I'm here for whatever she writes, but my most anticipated couple are Danika and Roman's storyline 😍
So why didn't I rate the book higher? Well I have a couple of reasons. The first one because the first part of the book was a bit too slow for my taste, to the point I was a bit bored. The second one is Elena. I did love her on book one, but on this book she was annoying. I didn't like how she acted with Konstantin, in fact I thought she was rude. But I also have to say that her attitude towards the end was way better and I liked her change.
As for the final, even If I predicted what would happen with a certain character, I admit the plot sounds interesting and I'm here for it.
Overall, I do think it's a good read, specially if you love your mafia books with the found family aspect and different type of plots.
