This book just wasn't for me. I tried to force myself to keep going but this was way too insta-lovey in my opinion.
The FMC and the MMC are basically obsessed with each other from the second they lay eyes on each other, the same goes for the side characters. I need TENSION, and this did not give. The FMC is supposed to be in her upper twenties but she acts/talks like a teenager and I found her to be annoying. I also felt that there wasn't enough of a distinction between the POVs, I sometimes forgot whose chapter I was currently on. It just didn't feel like he was a mafia man while reading his chapters.
There is also a part where someone is in a medically induced coma and they literally bring them home from the hospital before they even came out of the coma??
I DNF'd at 30%

If you are fine with insta-love, this may be for you, I just couldn't connect enough with the story/ characters to keep going.

A Dirty Business is a romance between a parole officer and the heir to a mafia family. It is told in first person from dual POV’s of Jess Montell and Trace West. Jess and Trace meet at a Hockey game and they have an immediate connection. Trace hates anything to do with law enforcement but can’t keep away from Jess. Overall I would give this a generous three stars. It was ok but the romance happens way too fast for my liking. I prefer a lot of buildup but Jess and Trace were immediately attracted to each other. There was no tension for me. I’m not really a fan of Tijan’s writing but I can see many people loving this. The story moved at a quick pace and it was easy to read.

A romance between a parole officer and the heir to the Mafia family. Like all Tijan's books, it's hot, steamy and sexy. I love both characters. Such hot chemistry between the characters! :) I love the suspense and the the fast moving pace.

Thanks to the publisher for the arc.
