At the Sicuro Academy, the Russians and the Italians give each other a wide berth. Weβre bitter enemies after all.
So imagine my disbelief when my brother announces that Iβm to wed Dante Accardi, next in line to run the Accardi Italian crime family.
After the shock subsides, Iβm determined to save myself. Itβs not until my plan is in full swing that I realize there might be more to Dante than I first thought. But those closest to me, those who were supposed to protect me have always hurt me. Now, I have to decide whether to trust him with my heart or whether heβll just be another person in my life who brings me to my knees.

Polina Aminoff is a Bratva brat and an ice princess that I donβt think even an easy-going guy like me can thaw. And Iβve never had an issue melting the panties off a woman before. Iβm just as unhappy about our engagement as she is, but my father made it clearβit is my duty to the family.
Once weβre forced together, another side of Polina shines and I start to think we could have a future together that doesnβt involve being bitter rivals.
But sheβs hiding something, I just donβt know what. Which leaves me wondering, can I ever really trust my enemy?

MY REVIEW
At the Sicuro Academy, the Italians and Russians are bitter enemies, until the Aminoff and Accardi families devise a plan to bridge peace. Unfortunately for Dante and Polina, that means they’re forced into an arranged marriage that neither of them wants…
Craving My Rival is a great addition to the Mafia Academy series. I have been wanting to get my hands on Dante’s story for quite some time and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. I found this story to well well-written, entertaining, and filled with delicious tension.
Polina and Dante were a force to be reckoned with. Each one of them was stubborn and held an intensity of their own. On the surface, Polina seemed like a cold-hearted ice queen, but beneath the surface was a woman who just wanted to be loved and not hurt anymore. And Dante was just what the doctor ordered. He was loyal to his family and wasn’t afraid to go after what he wanted. Once he set his sights on making the best of his situation with Polina, all bets were off. I loved the tension and banter between the two of them and despite the bumps they encountered on the way, I couldn’t help but root for these two to find their way to happily ever after.
Craving My Rival was a fantastic read from beginning to end. I loved the intensity of the family dynamics and the drama it created. Polina and Dante’s story was a bit of a slow burn, but I think the slow burn paid off in their case. If I had to make one complaint, it would be about the pacing towards the end. I do feel like it was a bit rushed and that certain things were wrapped up a bit too quickly. And that might just be me. I’m the kind of reader who always wants more.
In the end, I had the best time getting swept up in this story and this series. I can not wait to see what P. Rayne has in store for us next!
