Review: The theme for this book:  I'm Sorry
Rating: 4 out of 5

What a mess of a story and I'm sucked in now!!  The epic story of Mason (Head mobster, controlling, angry, moody, women and relationship issues) and Ava (horrific childhood drama survivor, feisty, men issues).  This book started out with so much potential.  The main characters blew me away:  Mason, mobster who was controlling, demanding and did not take any crap.  Ava, perceived innocent who understood Mason's business and was tough and fierce.  I was on team Ava after she set Rebecca straight.  Then at some point, Mason and Ava changed and I really did not like them anymore.  However, it was too late to get out of it because I had been sucked into the drama.Ava, such a contradiction.  She does not share; she does not do relationships; she can not let anyone in; she does not like keeping secrets;  she likes honesty;  Contradiction.  This girl started out one way and totally flipped by the end of the story.  Hot mess.  She created some drama that was unforgiveable.  She spent the majority of the book saying '...broke my heart'.  I wonder if I will be able to get back on team Ava in the future.Mason, what happened to my strong controlling alpha anti-hero?  He totally let Ava steamroll over him.  He spent the majority of the book saying 'I'm so sorry Ava'.  It became very annoying and took away from his strong character.  I ended up seeing him as weak.  I'm hoping he finds his you know what in the next book.Why Not 5 Stars?Grammar mistakes were a plenty. There were so many that it became distracting and took away from the story.Long story with so much drama:  'I love You (insert Ava or Mason)', drama, break-up/run/leave.  Repeat, Repeat, Repeat.  Perhaps some of it should have been carried over to future books.
