ARC REVIEW - With This Ring

by Abstract Book - January 22, 2021

Title: With This Ring

Author: Natasha Knight

Genre: Dark Mafia Romance

Type: To Have and Hold Duet #1

POV: Dual

Release date: 2nd Feb 2021

My rating: 💋💋💋💋

When I rescued Scarlett De La Cruz from her tower it’s not like her prospects were looking so great.

You’d think she’d show a little gratitude. Thank me for putting my ring on her finger and marking her as mafia property.

My property.

I’ll keep her safe. And the trade-off isn’t so bad. Most women would jump at the chance to sleep in my bed.

Not Scarlett, though.

My Cartel Princess has a big mouth and an even bigger attitude. But it’s her furious caramel eyes that keep me coming back for more. That and the way her body bends to mine like it already knows it belongs to me.

Scarlett is my enemy. She’s also the one woman I can’t keep my hands off.

But if I don’t keep my head on straight, everything I’ve worked for all these years will have been for nothing.
