Odin lost everything to the mafia and became the thing he needed to be to save others and get his revenge. Alba, the unwanted daughter to a Serra Capo, invisible, belittled and ignored hates her life at home. Of course, Odin knows she different and that's why he picks her to be his arranged bride. I didn't expect him to give her full transparency on his plans, or to give her the recognition she deserved for her good deeds done on the down-low. This really fosters trust between them and lets their chemistry bloom into love. I love that they manage to not only survive but also get their fab and steamy HEA.

Watching his thirst for revenge waver and transform into a savage instinct to possess and protect Alba is utterly addictive; what’s more, it’s brilliant to see a curvy heroine being adored and desired so intensely by such a dominant man.","date":"26th Jul 2026"},{"name":"Karen99","rating":"5","title":"I'm Going to Keep Her","text":"Revenge and Love\r\n\r\nA dark mafia read as Odin was about to fulfil everything he’s set in motion but first, he had to claim the one woman who he knew was to be his.\r\n\r\nFull of danger, betrayal, trust and love.

The treaty he made with Roberto was a façade. He knew only one of his daughters had a kind heart, Alba. She would be his wife and he would take down Serra Mafia. I have to say, Odin wasn’t like the others. He never pressured Alba. They got to know each other and she finally had freedom. When she learns about what happened to Odin’s family and by whose hand, she is shocked, saddened and angry. I love that Alba, even though her family was evil and spoiled, she still saved as many as she could. I was thrilled that with Alba’s help, those that were saved were also saved by Odin. These two are a great pair. Odin had plans for them both that would not free them though. And I have to say, I love that Alba knew a lie when she saw it.
