My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Nikolai is drawn to Lorenzo, a dangerously alluring member of the powerful Theriot crime family, despite—or perhaps because of—their shared hatred for Nikolai’s abusive father. When his father attempts to sell him, Nikolai escapes and turns to Lorenzo for protection. Their arrangement begins as transactional, with Nikolai offering his body in exchange for safety, but as deeper feelings emerge, the line between desire and destruction blurs. Caught between peril and passion, Nikolai must navigate a treacherous path where love could either save him—or break him completely.
I loved this story with the complexity of mafia family dynamics and politics, and the attraction between the two men. I loved the relationship between the families and the way that there was dependence and deference, but also love could sometimes bypass that with understanding and tolerance. I love the men of the Theriot family, and it was great to experience them again. This could be a great start to a new series by the author. Lots of emotions and feelings were involved, but some of them could be described a bit more as some of them came as a surprise. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.
