This man is going to have you questioning some things while you’re reading and at times it made me really come out of my comfort zone. Normally I’m a got to see a series all the way through kinda gal but I definitely won’t be going back to this. Bianca is young, naive and I really hope that in future books she will wise up and be a more interesting FMC.

l beck is one of my favourite authors (the one where you pick up her book, and nothing else gets done until you've finished it).

I have waited for this book with absolute bated breath from the moment I first saw this author sharing it on social media.

EMPIRE OF LUST is perfect for long-time mafia romance readers, but also one I’d recommend to anyone wanting to experiment with a darker read. Nothing is quiet as exciting to her as reading a good book and then talking about it or making comments while reading with her friends that have read the book too. The story is a dark mafia romance with an age gap, forbidden touch element that will have you turning the pages faster than you can imagine. I feel like in most mafia books the fmc struggles for a chapter with the fact that their love interest unalives people for a living and then it's never mentioned again.

Ending was a bit predictable not gonna lie, and Bianca seems like she can’t make her mind to save her life (literally), but as always live the smut. I also am used to a lot of the things that happened in this book, but there’s just a few things I didn’t love. After an unexpected encounter at the pool, an opportunity presents itself and feelings unravel and things heat up between the couple.

Overall, this book has drama, spice, and a very overprotective, controlling, hooottt mafia man who would burn the world for his girl.
