This is a dark romance novel with mafia and it’s one of the ones that actually have a lot of action. It’s dual pov and definitely a slow burn. We follow FMC Catalina and she has a very traumatic upbringing and deals with her past and she becomes strong and doesn’t take any abuse anymore from anyone and runs the mafia very well, Boss bish vibes. We also follow Marco, heir to his family mafia that has a thing for Catalina. As the story progresses Catalina’s feelings change toward Marco as they become closer. I do love the connection between them and how Marco talks to Catalina. This isn’t dark romance to me at all, it’s just a slow burn but the romance is very spicy! I loved it.
