An utterly fabulous, dark, twisty, spicy and very moving MM romance which focuses on the developing relationship of enemies Dami & Cal in their attempts to negotiate the violent Mafia world they live in. HIGHLY recommended.

A fabulous and very emotional romance about Theo, who is desperately trying to recover from very serious domestic abuse, and Hunter, the kind-hearted man who is perfectly placed to help him. I loved the whole slow-burn romance between the two men. A recommended read.
