For fans of Cade Armanelli and Izzy Hardy, mob romance, forced proximity and enemies to lover, hacker, billionaire romance. She can handle anything…except sharing a bed with the boss she hates. My enemy doesn’t make the rules behind closed doors… Even if he’s my boss. Cade Armanelli might be an infamous hacker with billionaire status who operates better alone, but I earned my spot working alongside him... Whether he likes it or not. It’s precisely why I’m on the first plane to an undisclosed location for our cybersecurity team retreat. I’m ready to prove to our company that I can handle anything… Except sharing a cabin and a bed with my meticulous, elusive boss. He’s antisocial. Ruthless. Enemy number one. Unfortunately, he’s also number one in tatted, dark, and dangerous. I quickly come to find that not only are his hacking skills perfection, but so is his performance in the bedroom. Not that it matters. I have a job to keep, a heart to protect, and our nation’s data to secure. Cade can’t help me with any of that. He’s a distraction, one I have to avoid… Even if it means I’m spray painting a red line down our bed and keeping my boss on his side.

This was not my first Shain Rose rodeo and I admit that I was very excited because I really like stories with hackers on them. But I must say it was not what I expected, I didn't hate it because the story had such a nice pace, and the writing was good. However, I have some trouble connecting with mafia books. The story has a slow beginning, and I needed a little time to be able to connect with the romance between the main characters. The storyline was quite interesting though but a bit over the top for me, but again, mafia romances are not exactly easy for me to get into. Overall, I liked the story and the fact that the author connects the characters from other books. I would recommend this book to everyone who enjoys mafia romances, with dark dominant and possessive MMC and a good dose of smut. Thank you, NetGalley & the publisher, for approving me to read this arc and write this review.
I liked the storyline and the plot, but the spice was a little too ... heavy/dark for me? I know it's not a dark romance, but for me it was a little dark. I started this book because I really wanted to read the second book and I can't go out of order. LOL The second books are usually better than the first. Not a bad read! 3.75 for me
