edit data

Rayna York grew up with hippie parents that moved a lot. Where change was the norm, books were her constant—a way to escape. As an adult, many careers came and went, but writing has always been her passion. Her books tend to be based on dreams, and since that’s the way inspiration strikes, she wakes up every morning and writes them in her notebook with barely an eye open. When she’s not tucked away in her writing shack, she’s pursuing other passions, like chocolate, reading, or movies/TV series.

I love coming across novels that surprise me. Uniquely written, and a fantastic story, I enjoyed every moment of it. I’m grateful to the friend that passed it over to me; otherwise, I would’ve never read it.

What can I say other than it’s classic Tijan, and it’s right on brand with other mafia romances. I will say the semi-cliffhanger was a surprise. I’ve already started the next novel in the series.
