Summary
Is it so bad that I tricked my older brother’s best friend into taking my virginity？
Maybe。
In my defense， it was Dante Reid—my crush， my first love， and the one I ended up pushing away。
Our paths split in opposite directions。
I went to college on one coast while he returned to work with the US Army on the other。
The end。
Or so I thought。
After graduating and attempting a bucket list of self-discovery， guess who I find standing outside the jail， bailing me out from a crime I didn’t commit？
Dante freaking Reid—this time with more muscles， more tattoos， and more demands。
One of which is to move in across the hall from him so he can keep me safe。 Like I need protection after a little felony mix-up。
I don’t。
Unless it’s from him。
Because Dante has been my downfall before …
And living next to the guy I gave my innocence to a long time ago may actually end in my complete devastation。
Shain Rose is back with another light mafia standalone romance with forced proximity， steam， and bucket list to cross off。 This is a standalone romance with 95，000+ words。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 This was hella chaotic。 Their talks at the beggining of the book was extra confusing and long。 The part with voyeurism is so unnecessary。 The part where the twin sister was in love with him got me howling but the proposal and randomly eating her out while his mother suddenly appeared is the most cringe scene of them all。

Tiktok fooled me again。 The cover should’ve been foreshadowing。

I had low expectations for this one cus it was just a book I saw on tik tok， But it delivered。 If you’re looking for a fast paced， smutty， mafia romance， this is the one。 There were a few things I didn’t love about it， but overall it gave what it was supposed to so I’ll let it slide 🤣🖤

Better than AnticipatedI just came across this book and wasn’t expecting too much from it。 This was my first book by Rose and I wasn’t disappointed in the steam。 I do think the characters could have developed a little more。 I was pretty much over the FMC because she is presented with some issues but they are never fleshed out or addressed in a healthy way。 I will continue to read books by Rose because again the steam delivered。 I just want to see more character development。

If I could one star it I would。 DNF at 51%。 All they did was argue and argue some more。 There wasn’t even a storyline。 Just arguing all the time。 Got old and tiring。

An amazing beach read Although not on a beach on an island （mums the word） this was definetly my favorite summer read so far。 Great story， engaging characters， and the romance was boldly graphic。 I have recommended to all my friends。 Bravo

Saw this on tiktok advertised as a mafia， brothers best friend。 Brothers best friend is just a line stated over and over but you don’t see any interaction between the MC and the brother until the very end and it’s very anticlimactic。 Not a typical mafia book either as that aspect played very little into the storyline。 This was very repetitive and would’ve been better as a novella。

OK but frustrating I just wasn't a huge fan of the book taking until 50% for them to just finally talk。。。and only bc she got caught up with her words。 The smut was good but would not read again。 I know the lack of communication was to make the story have some conflict to support the second chance romance but man was it frustrating。 OK but frustrating I just wasn't a huge fan of the book taking until 50% for them to just finally talk。。。and only bc she got caught up with her words。 The smut was good but would not read again。 I know the lack of communication was to make the story have some conflict to support the second chance romance but man was it frustrating。 。。。more

Cliche but goodI love the boy next door dom mode but I hate that every feral couple novel ends with a pregnancy troupe。 Adventures would be so much more interesting

Oh。 Dante 🤤Every fantasy brought to life in one MMC。 Dante had。 It。 All！ But the biggest takeaway from me was the FMC’s depression and anxiety。 I saw A LOT of myself in Lilah; perfectionism， people pleasing， feeling invisible， feeling hurt for being invisible… and then feeling guilty for being hurt… so much anxiety to be the perfect girl everyone needed her to be。 Giving so much of herself that she didn’t know who she is and what she needs… gah that kind of depression can overwhelm you and I con Oh。 Dante 🤤Every fantasy brought to life in one MMC。 Dante had。 It。 All！ But the biggest takeaway from me was the FMC’s depression and anxiety。 I saw A LOT of myself in Lilah; perfectionism， people pleasing， feeling invisible， feeling hurt for being invisible… and then feeling guilty for being hurt… so much anxiety to be the perfect girl everyone needed her to be。 Giving so much of herself that she didn’t know who she is and what she needs… gah that kind of depression can overwhelm you and I connected on a whole new level with a character。 I really REALLY appreciate that， and felt heard。 Her consistent battle with being “enough” for herself and wanting to stand on her own two feet but also recognizing that she needs help too… what a complicated part of depression and it was so well written。 。。。more

Fractured Freedom is one of those books that you start reading the first page and you can already tell it's going to be amazing。 Dante and Delilah give us a story that is so hot it is highly advised to keep a fan close by or be ready for lots of cold showers。 Not only is Fractured Freedom steamy but the storyline is wonderfully entertaining， filled with angst， family drama， mafia ties， lots of dirty talk， undercover work and real life issues such as depression after loss of a baby， plus much， mu Fractured Freedom is one of those books that you start reading the first page and you can already tell it's going to be amazing。 Dante and Delilah give us a story that is so hot it is highly advised to keep a fan close by or be ready for lots of cold showers。 Not only is Fractured Freedom steamy but the storyline is wonderfully entertaining， filled with angst， family drama， mafia ties， lots of dirty talk， undercover work and real life issues such as depression after loss of a baby， plus much， much more。 I highly recommend reading Fractured Freedom， I love everything about this book and truly enjoyed reading Dante and Delilah's story。 I hope there will be stories for all of Delilah's siblings especially her twin sister and oldest brother。 Don't miss out on this brothers best friend dark romance， it is well worth the read。 Happy Reading！！！ 。。。more

As far as mafia romance books go I've read better。 It didn't have much of a mafia aspect to it and we never found out what Dante really did as part of the mob。There was a big disconnect between Delilah and her family so we didn't get to see her relationship with her brothers。 Classifying this book under the "brother's best friend" trope was underwhelming。 Most of the spice was underwhelming too was kind of bland or barely mentioned。 But Dante did have a way with words lol and I don't remember th As far as mafia romance books go I've read better。 It didn't have much of a mafia aspect to it and we never found out what Dante really did as part of the mob。There was a big disconnect between Delilah and her family so we didn't get to see her relationship with her brothers。 Classifying this book under the "brother's best friend" trope was underwhelming。 Most of the spice was underwhelming too was kind of bland or barely mentioned。 But Dante did have a way with words lol and I don't remember the point where they said the famous "I love you" I was expecting a little more especially with the enticing first chapter 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 All Over the Place。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。Hes military， a cop and mafia？？ Like what？ Pick one。She’s moody， emotional， depressing and all over the place too。 This was sweet romance， then kinky， then dom/sub… I couldn’t keep up。 It tried to be forbidden romance but it wasnt really forbidden。Its like the author threw together little pieces of 100 tropes and tried to make it work。 It was overly complicated and could’ve been simplified ten-fold。

The spice was amazing but honestly I HATED the twin love triangle going on， it completely ruined the whole vibe， was unnecessary， and honestly made the rest of the book feel cheapened somehow。 Idk， a lot of this book was just weird， like the parents reactions to Lilah and Dante being a couple was just strange and how it was just a magical fairytale happily ever after just felt wrong。 The “little lamb” and “wolf” was just grossly overused。

Spicy， heart breaking， and a definite HEAI really enjoyed this book and plan to read others by this author。 The emotional depth was great， realistic and captivating just how a good book should be。 I wish we'd had a bit more incite into the workings and dealings of the Armanelli Family but what was there was good。 This was definitely more romance than suspense， however the action etc was well done。 Fractured Freedom had well developed characters and plot， alternating POV， and a great dynamic。 Not Spicy， heart breaking， and a definite HEAI really enjoyed this book and plan to read others by this author。 The emotional depth was great， realistic and captivating just how a good book should be。 I wish we'd had a bit more incite into the workings and dealings of the Armanelli Family but what was there was good。 This was definitely more romance than suspense， however the action etc was well done。 Fractured Freedom had well developed characters and plot， alternating POV， and a great dynamic。 Not for those of younger audience due to mature themes of both spicy and dark nature。 。。。more

started off good but around 30% in it really started to drag。 i ended up skimming the rest of the book。 also hated dante’s nickname for lilah （little lamb/lamb🤮）。 i think i’m being generous with the 2 star rating。

It started so good！ The heat was brought！！！ But then 。 。 。 It kinda fizzled out。 Or scenes were brought it， but never followed through。 Ie。 Cade comes in says they need to go to Chicago to be prepared ahead。 Then they go to the family farm and we completely drop that they were supposed to go to Chicago The feelings gave me whiplash。 One min Delilah is saying they can never be together （for whinny half a$$ reasons） literally the next second she is saying yes。 The book was a good attempt at talkin It started so good！ The heat was brought！！！ But then 。 。 。 It kinda fizzled out。 Or scenes were brought it， but never followed through。 Ie。 Cade comes in says they need to go to Chicago to be prepared ahead。 Then they go to the family farm and we completely drop that they were supposed to go to Chicago The feelings gave me whiplash。 One min Delilah is saying they can never be together （for whinny half a$$ reasons） literally the next second she is saying yes。 The book was a good attempt at talking about miscarriages and depression， but not enough to really take the care that was needed。 It was entertaining but not a book I’ll think about again 。。。more

This was a good read， but I couldn’t give it 5 stars。 Lilah was hard for me to like。 She was probably the worlds worst communicator and takes all her issues out on Dante。 That being said， there was some great plot twists & good spice。

I wouldn’t recommend reading this， too many plot holes and errors。 Was thinking the ending would be drastically different。 Just fell flat for me。

Yikes…ok in the beginning but as it drags on it gets kinda abusive。 The guy kept calling the girl his “lamb” and it just weirded me out。 They also had sex in front of his driver…and made the girl watch his driver masturbate…like what lol just too extreme……well， unless you’re into voyeurism then you might enjoy but I found the situation in comfy。 Not my cup of tea but could be yours but not really great。

Really enjoy the story line， easy to follow， and very descriptive。 Brothers best friend fantasy， an Uber plus。
