    Goodreads review

  • Control My Night is an exciting urban fantasy that had me hooked from the very first page. As a huge fan of The Vampire Diaries and Supernatural, who was looking to relive that 2010s nostalga, I was super excited to dive in. I was definitely not disappointed!

  • It’s time to enter our mafia era, besties. Five stars isn’t even enough for this one.
