Review: I really want to like this book. But it's super repetitive, on one page it will say something then repeat it on the next page like they forgot they wrote it or were trying to hit a word quota. I really don't see how this book qualifies to be in the Mafia sub-genre. The story itself is nice. The book took me a day to read, so it was nice and quick. I really like Callum, but both characters had their annoying qualities. I would have to give this book 3 stars.
