I have so much to say, yet I am not sure I find the words. In one word: perfection. This was a book about real life and its struggles. Calla just turned 27 at this book and I am currently same age as her. I found that I related to her a lot. I know many reviewers say that they found this book boring and Calla annoying, but not everything is for everyone, and the point of this book was not just the lovey dovey stuff, but the things after. Which, personally, I always find myself craving for.

I just can’t describe how relatable this was. How I felt the pain and grief, even if I haven’t personally experienced it. I felt like someone understood what it is like to feel a bit lost, navigating life, relationship and more. Of course, Calla had more challenges than that. Like Alaskan way of life and wild animals. The loneliness when your significant other is so driven and passionate about something, while you are feeling out of sorts and a bit lost, not sure where your passion lies. While navigating through life, emotions and even loneliness, since the people closest to you are no longer living close to you.

I honestly crave for books like these more. I absolutely loved it, and do not care if some feel Calla was being stupid, because I can admit that when I am having emotional turmoil, missing someone, feeling lost, yes I might act like a dumbass. But even if they both kept things inside, they finally communicated and even with ups and downs, they faced them together, and came to the other side of it. That is the beauty of it. The reality of life.

I will be definitely reading novella next, can’t wait to find out what happens next in their lives. 🥹💞

Ahh loved this one! Cowboy romance and mafia princess, combined together?! Bring it on!

Recently I have been devouring cowboy romances and before that mafia romances, yet this book was the first one to combine best of two worlds. I have never read anything like this with cowboys and mafia princess’s, yet it was done so well.

First of all, I really enjoyed the plot, writing and world. Secondly, the characters, their relationships, back and forth banter and almost animosity was so entertaining. It felt real and palpable. They really make a fiery couple. I truly enjoyed their relationship, chemistry and communication. The way Knox was all overprotective of her and had the “touch her and I burn the world for her” energy, chef’s kiss. 🔥 And so did Elena have the same fire and “touch him and you d!e”. They just fitted so well together.

I absolutely loved how she fell in love with the farm, animals (or more likely animals falling to their knees before her) and hoe they built a home in such unlikely place for a mafia princess. It was so sweet. Their love and devotion for each other admireble.

Ahh, and I especially enjoyed the epilogue so much. 🥹💕
