I admit that I thought this book would be quite a bit darker than it was, and that was likely my biggest disappointment. It sounds dark from the blurb, and looks dark, but it's kind of all bark and no bite. There's plenty of steam, but the characters do a bit more insisting that they're dark than actually showing it, and in the end, I kind of felt more like it was a contemporary romance dressed up with mafia trimmings, just based on the characters and the ease of the plot development. It wasn't a bad diversion, though, so for someone simply wanting a romance that threatens darkness more so than it delivers it, and proceeds pretty easily and at a fast pace, it's worth a read.

I have no idea if I'll read more work from the author--the romance here worked, and there was plenty of steam. The writing wasn't bad, if sometimes a bit repetitive and forced. I just wanted the darkness of the characters/plot to live up to genre and blurb promise and advertising a bit more. ( )
