Fluent in Romance
I went into this expecting a high-heat, protective mafia romance, but it ended up feeling more like a lukewarm second-chance story. The 'found family' and 'secret son' tropes had potential, but the MMC and his brothers should have done more to stand up to their father when he disrespected the FMC.
I also didn't love some of the interactions between the main characters and their child. I just thought some of the things they said or did were not cool, which made it harder to connect with them as parents.
It just didn't hit the mark for me but I am still going to try the next book in the series.
