About the author

I write to give a voice to what’s often left unspoken — to breathe life into emotions we’re sometimes afraid to feel. My stories explore wounds, love, family ties, and the strength it takes to heal.

I’m a stubborn dreamer, drawn to quiet moments that say everything, to glances that carry whole stories, and to characters trying to rebuild themselves.

If my words reach your heart, then I’ve done what I came here to do.

I NEED MOREEEEEEEE
I literally finished this book in a day because I’ve been waiting for it 😭

The Ivanovs will always be my family, nothing compares to the bonds they share with each other that includes Siena( even tho she’s scared to see that).
My Elif!!!!!!! The Queen of the Ivanovs, I can’t wait to read her book.

The cliffhanger, waiting for Vol 2..I need it like I need air

Don’t want to give any spoilers but just know this book is 5 stars from me❤️

This series is getting better and better!
I love every thing in this book, and I need more, because the characters are everything and interesting.
The tension, the twists keep me on the edge in every single page.
The end? Oh my god, i have so many questions, so I can’t wait for the next one!

Honest Review:

After reading the first book,I almost quickly jumped into it in an instant. Because the first book was written very perfectly and was finished in one book. And the way the first book was edging us with Sasha and Sienna's chemistry,I couldn't hold back from reading this one. But it being duet, kind of crushed me as I'm now stuck in a cliff hanger.

Some things I didn't like:


The first book was written at a slow pace but with many plots and it was written without any plot holes. But I think this book has some plot holes and I also have some questions.


Plot holes:
1. How's Sienna so perfectly operating everything in front of the master and why did the master not do anything as he saw Sienna slipping away from him?

2. Ivanovos are powerful. How the hell they can't find the relationship between Sienna and the master?

3. The book was dragging Sienna's past so bad. I think the author had a tough time writing both the past and present parts together. That's why she's losing the plot sometimes while writing.

4. I don't understand this whole thing. How did Sienna survive master? I mean Ganesh helped her but the master just let her go when Ganesh asked?it felt very weird to me.

5. If Alia is doing so many things behind her family's back then why don't the ivanovos just tell the family that she's creating problems?

6. If Sienna already knows that Sasha is searching for the same man from whom she's trying to save minor girls, why don't she just take help from him?

I’m sorry what, its a duet🫠🙃🙃

First of all I was wondering the whole book why it was so slow like till 45-50 percent of the book the MMC AND FMC barely have scenes together and secondly if I had known this was a duet I would have waited a year for another one and then read it together. I loved the bonding scenes and all but I feel like a-lot of the book was dragged in various parts and Sienna’s past is so difficult but I was also confused as of how she was openly operating with Ivanovs in front of the master. I guess I will have to wait. The story has crazy potential so I hope they get justice in the second book and sienna’s past doesn’t get even more dragged to be revealed.

I LOVED THIS BOOK 😭

The author’s writing has improved enormously compared to the first book, and it really shows on every page. This novel is absolutely spectacular: the attention to detail is amazing, and the characters are incredibly well developed. I loved them all, especially Sienna (MY BABY 😭) and Kenji, I loved their bond. I finished the book in a very short time because it completely held me captive—I couldn’t put it down. I loved all the dynamics of the story, and some scenes moved me deeply and made me feel strong emotions.

I NEED THE SECOND PART LIKE NOW 😭😭😭😭

So I’ll be honest. The first book was amazing, chefs kiss. But this one it started off good then I kind of found myself scrolling and scrolling and reading it for the sake of behing over and actually finding the plot. I feel like Sienna had so much time to tell Sasha but instead it was dragged on. Even the scenes they did have together were cute but cut so short like I just wanted to see more. I loved Elif and Gregori and like that ending was so upsetting icl like why is everyone dying… I’m very disappointed and I was so excited for this book:(

okay. This book has emotions that I wanted to read from long time. The chemistry between Sienna and sasha is electric🔥. I have read the first book the last hope in this series and I knew this couple will be my favourite. This has suspense, drama, intense romance and the cliffhanger ending had me screaming for more! If you love enemies to lover mafia romances, this is a good read. can't wait for the next part!!
