Book Review: Pretty Pink Poison

 

I was promised to his brother. But it’s Bane Black who owns me.
They said he’d protect me through my long engagement.
Watch me. Guard me. Keep me on a leash.
Instead, he stalks. He breaks. He consumes … And I enjoy letting him.

Bane is heir to an Italian mob family that enforces loyalty with fear and power with blood. But he’s not just their mafia prince.
He’s their executioner. Merciless. Meticulous. Bred to destroy…
Yet, before all of that, he was my neighbor and the boy I secretly fell for.

But when dark times loom and my father can’t pay the debt he owed their family, he offers what was left: my hand in marriage…to the wrong brother.
I thought Bane might save me.
Instead, he believes I betrayed him. And rather than halting the engagement, he takes control of it, punishing me with rough touches, ruthless words, and a rage I crave more than his indifference.

I know I should fear his destruction. But as my wedding nears, I realize I’d choose it over his brother’s gentle hand in marriage a thousand times over.

Bane Black is surely toxic.
But I may be the pretty pink poison destined to be his undoing.

Pretty Pink Poison is a dark mafia romance set in a world of syndicates and secrets, where love was never meant to be soft. It was always going to hurt. This book is darker than other Shain Rose books. Please read content warnings prior to reading.






My Review


Bianca had to grow up quickly with a cold father. Her mother was no protector. Her mother is meek. Bianca is not meek. She is a wrecking ball. Maybe this is why she and Bane have always been drawn to each other. Bane is dynamite. You never knew when he would blow up but all you knew was when he did you better hope that you were on the right side. 


As soon as Bianca and Bane shared their first scene together. I was already craving all the rest of the moments these two shared together. They got better and better. The nickname that Bane called Bianca "Pretty Little Poison" is fitting. She got into Bane's veins and he was hooked. 


Get ready to clear your day of your "real life" as you will be hooked by this book. It is a five star, one sitting read!
