Queen B’s Decree: I enjoyed the morally grey characters in the first of this series, so I jumped at the chance to listen to the next. After listening to this one, I know I’ll always be down for more from Lucas Troy and Eliza Nyx.
Sinful Temptation is one of my favorite tropes: age gap. And this takes it up a notch with the MMC being the FMC’s fiancé’s father. Talk about daddy issues 👀
It’s a bit instalove/instalust between Enzo and Nina, but I couldn’t get enough. While yes, there is quite a bit push and pull between them, but I totally understand Enzo’s reluctance to do anything to harm the relationship with his son. I mean…while Nina and Mateo started as an arranged marriage, it’s still gotta suck to have your forced fiancé fall for your dad.
Enzo is a mafia don, he is the right amount of morally grey. He’s so smitten for Nina (that he compulsively buys her favorite snacks) but he’ll schmurder whomever goes against his moral code. SAY LESS.
If these two narrators keep at it, I’ll keep listening to this series. To paraphrase Mona-Lisa Saperstein, MORE PLEASSSEEEEE.
