Loved this!!
If you like Black mafia romance, you will like this. I devoured this book. I loved the way Cassius waited for Aella to want to marry him instead of a forced arranged marriage even though their marriage obviously benefits their families.
This was my first book by Skye Moon but it will not be my last!
That teaser of book 2 at the end has me READY for book 2. I need it yesterday!!

Enjoyed it
This is my first book by author and I did really enjoy it. I did feel like it dragged a little bit towards the end, but seeing that this is not a completed series it makes sense why.
I liked Cass and Elle. It was cute seeing our relationship blossom, especially because my girl Elle was not going for it in the beginning lol
Overall 4/5. I’m interested in the next book.

Is it too early to ask for book 2?
When I started reading this book, I just knew who was behind all this bullshit. By the time I finished, I realized I was wrong!
Cassius and Aella despising each other in the beginning made their chemistry hit that much harder. The drama was entertaining as hell!
I started this book and had to finish it. Stayed up until three-something in the morning, then canceled my breakfast plans. This book was so fucking good, it was worth it! I can’t wait to read the other sisters’ books.

Chilleeeee
Not going to hold you, I just knew it was someone else. Like, at first I thought it was him, but then everything started falling apart and I had at least 3 people that I thought it was.. That ending though, seems like a setup. I could see the envy role playing a part, but I just CANT believe it. Book two me please!!!

Oh baby that ending!!! I need book 2 asap! I love Cassius and the way he locked in with Elle and immediately called her “mine”! I enjoyed their banter and the journey of their love. I was shocked when she said Mars but I honestly don’t believe it was him…he was genuinely hurt from that accusation

Yes, yes, yes!!! Come on with it Skye! I am a big fan of Skye Moon’s books and although it’s been a minute, she did not disappoint. This series has started off with a banger! I’m ready for the next installment.

I Love Ella & Cass!
Im so happy we get to see them actually connect and ultimately choose each other for their own reasons! I love when an FMC has a back bone but is also willing to bend when she realizes the MMC is worth it!

Solid start to the series.
Loved the banter between the two main characters. It took a bit for them but the build up was worth it.
I’m ready for book 2 !
