This is a dark mafia romance between Alex who works in a bar for the Reapers and she goes to college and is manipulated to join an art class that Alonzo is the professor of and the enemy of The Reapers. Alex is forced to get close to Alonzo and steal his money but things slowly start to change between the two as feelings get stronger. Alex will do anything to save her mom and herself from being taken advantage of by the Reapers and take Jacob down so Alex can be free. This was great and the connection between Alex and Alonzo was good and the romance was steamy!
