Okay, so, my bad for assuming the guy I was going on a date with wasn’t married. And my bad for taking him to a friend’s house for dinner, only to find out my friend is also friends with his wife. Because, in fact, he is married. And she happens to be at my friend’s house because her husband was busy working.
Confused? So am I.
Unsurprisingly, my date’s wife is super angry about finding out that her husband is a cheating asshole.
Girl, I get it.
Then, to make matters more convoluted, there is the man sitting next to my date’s wife. A man named King, who is apparently her brother, and who lives up to his name.
And since my date is a two-timing prick, I’m not going to feel bad about drooling over King, especially since I’ll never see him again.
Or at least I don’t plan to.
I plan to take an Uber to the cheater’s apartment to get my car keys.
I plan for it to be quick.
And if I had to list a thousand possible outcomes… witnessing my date’s murder, being kidnapped by his killer, and then being forced to marry the super attractive but clearly deranged crime lord, would not have been on my Bingo card.
But alas, here I am.

A Mafia Romance Book: King by S.J. Tilly
I didn’t think it was possible for this series to get better than Nero but here we are with the latest Alliance novel, a mafia romance book.
In the first book we saw the friendship between Nero and King and I was under the assumption that King was sane. Clearly I was mistaken because he is almost as insane as Nero. Notice I said, almost because Nero was loco.
King is visiting a friend with his sister when his sister’s husband and new girlfriend arrive. He is livid. He is ready to do damage there and then but because of his sister he waits. But not for too long. Soon he finds his brother-in-law and unalives him. In the process the girl that the brother-in-law was seeing witnesses the unaliving. King cannot have that so he kidnaps her and hides her on his compound. But it is King that falls hard for his captive.
I fell head over heels in love with Savannah and King’s story. King may be more sophisticated that Nero but he is still the over the top, possessive alpha that lays claim to his woman on first site. I love the insta-love aspect in this author’s books. These men are beat on the chest type alphas and definitely touch her and you die men.
I loved every bit of this story and read it in one sitting. I didn’t want it to end and the sex scenes are scorching. Please check your trigger warnings because there is some kinky stuff. I highly, highly recommend this book and in fact the whole series.
One more thing I loved about this series was the fact that the women were not skinny model-types. Savannah was curvy and King liked his women that way. I love when curvy, voluptuous women get the gorgeous man. And the representation of plus size was A1.
