They glorify mafia world with romance which I think is wrong in my opinion. Don’t get me started on the stereotypes they portray too. I get it, it has good drama but I feel like it’s repeated you know. Personally I like a mafia story but not when it’s portrayed in a romantic way thinking that the mafia leader will change and be a good person. No. They will cut your throat or something.
Personally, if you want a good mafia story which is my romanced, I highly recommend checking out the Second Chance franchise by Josie Jackson. It’s very cleverly written with plenty of drama and shows the female mafia boss and how toxic she is. The romance is just between ordinary citizens whom she goes out and destroys. I looked very hard to find a mafia story which wasn’t like anything else and I found this very rare gem. Not sure why the author hasn’t got more reads.
Anyway that was an example of a good mafia story in the blurred description
