I tried but I just really don’t care. Idk if I’m in a book slump and I can’t speak on how this book progresses or if it gets good.
What I will say is in the previous book, Dominique’s (FMC) best friend was forced to marry Alexi Babin and you’re telling me that in this book, Dominique does not recognise the surname Babin??????????????????????????????????????????????????? Your best friend was being forced into a marriage and you can’t remember the guy’s name???? bsffr rn
The FMC, for what little I read, kind of seemed like an airhead? Between the above and the fact that the guy she’s currently in a situationship can’t possible be involved in illegal activity despite being cautioned about it from her best friend that was born into organised crime? lol, bye
Petty point: why do they keep calling situationship guy a Capo? He’s part of a cartel. Capo is Italian. It is a rank in a *Mafia* setting. They’re discussing a *Cartel* - Julio would not be called Capo, lol
