‘Terribly beautiful. Her dark eyes are no less decisive. ‘
Break on Through was a slightly tamed addition to Jessica Reuben’s Mafia romance series compared to previous books – but still – we enjoyed it! Low-level anxiety told in a double POV that it was entertaining – easy to read – Enemies for Lovers, an orderly marriage romance in which the writer handled the issues beautifully. The growth of both Leo and Talia was evident throughout the story, and we loved how intense Talia was!
