This is a mafia romance but it's not a dark romance. It's grumpy/sunshine, nanny/single dad mafia romance with a lot of spice. This story follows Fabrizio and Sienna. Fabrizio will do anything to protect his twins, Maddy and Flynn. Sienna is their teacher and in the beginning they are in danger so Fabrizio takes her as a captive but they both fall for each other as time passes and they try to fight it their feelings. Eventually, she feels like she belongs there with him and his twins, they have fun and cute moments together. There is a lot of depth to Fabrizio with the loss of his wife and there is other topics that could be triggering. This is easy to read, fast paced and a little mafia action but not much, I prefer more. I loved the kids relationship with Sienna, it was so fun. The twins make this book a bit more deep and there is funny moments in this. I can tell that even if Sienna is only around Fabrizio and she doesn't want to get away, They care about each other. If you want a fun time with mafia romance and spice this is for you. I personally wanted more but this was good.
