Rate this book
The only daughter of a rich and powerful household, Choi Jumi.

She seems to have it all, but she lives a lonely life, unable to do anything according to her own will.

And on an especially cold and long winter, she meets that man — a merciless, cruel, and cold man.

Jung Yoongyo, a big shot and heir to Woosung, South Korea's largest gang organization.

As she waited for him on a blind date set by her father, she hoped he wouldn't show up.

“I think I've given you enough time to run away.”

‘If I had run away then and we hadn't met, would this have never happened?’

But…

The Absolute Threshold was the perfect palate cleanser. It's a contemporary mafia romance set in Seoul. Joomi grew up with a mobster father, so her life has been far from normal. When her dad sets her up on a blind date with Yoongyo, the successor to Korea's biggest mob clan, Joomi has no choice but to accept.

I loved the set up. It created so much tension and anticipation. I don't usually like one night stand romances, especially the ones that lead to an unplanned pregnancy. But this one hooked me. Yoongyo said and did some of the most unhinged stuff, but what can I say? I loved it LOL. There was drama, steam, romance, banter, etc. It basically had everything I like in my romance novels and kdramas. It was definitely a lot kinkier than I was expecting NGL LOL. But I'm not complaining.

Definitely pick this up if you're looking for a super steamy and romantic mafia romance with a possessive ML.

P.S. Her skirt getting stuck under his thigh?! Hot.

parece algo que escribiría Rina Kent and that’s not a compliment

I really really would not recommend. Im not sure if I can say why on here but it's too much. And it does not get better with time
