BLURB

She Cut My Heart Open… 

I only meant to steal a car. I didn’t know I was stealing a girl, too. Until the most gorgeous face I’d ever seen popped up in the rear-view mirror. 

I fell hard, fast, and forever… 

But she tore out my heart — left me alone and bleeding. 

How can I forget her, when I have to see that damned perfect face on billboards and magazines? 

It’s torture. 

9 long years. I thought I moved on. 

Then I saw her in the flesh… 

And my heart started bleeding all over again…





MY REVIEW
Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5

It is official, Sophie Lark has become my favourite mafia romance writer. Her writing style just reels you in with each sentence. I've been patiently waiting for Dante's book, ever since the series started and my gosh, I am irrevocably in love with this brute of a man. He is like a hurricane, an unstoppable force of nature, and I wouldn't have him any other way.

The story gives out a Rome and Juliet vibe. Dante and Simone come from different worlds. He's a mafioso, a brute, a dangerous man who could easily defeat his enemies with his bare hands. While she always lived a sheltered and luxurious life, as the youngest daughter of a well known and respected ambassador. They groomed her to become a lady of society, to follow in her father and sister's footsteps and attend a prestigious University in London. But her dreams are far from what her family envisioned for her, and the moment Simone meets Dante, things change for her. There is this raw connection between them that goes beyond physical attraction. It's an instant soul connection that draws them together. However, being together means going against her family's wishes and Simone must also consider the dangerous aspects of Dante's life. It all comes down to making a decision that will alter their lives forever.

Told in dual POV, the story was suspenseful and full of dangerous situations, with fairly paced action and a well-crafted plot. There weren't any major twists, but it was exciting and enthralling. There was a perfect equilibrium between suspense and romance. I loved the chemistry between Dante and Simone. Their interactions were sizzling hot and their relationship developed organically. He's built like a gladiator, and he always seems angry. He's an epitome of masculinity, but underneath that rough exterior there's a man who can feel so much, and Simone makes him fall in love for the first time. She is sweet, carrying, intelligent but also strong-headed and courageous. Meeting Dante has been the thrill of her life, and he sparks so many feelings inside her. They fit together perfectly, like two pieces of a puzzle. 

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I recommend it to everyone who loves second chance romances. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series!
