My Review ( May contain spoilers, fair warning upon reading this review, please be responsible)
Destructive King is the third in the Mafia Royals series. If you love NA mafia romance, then I do recommend this series especially if you love a more comedy feel to it which is actually rare for the dark romance genre. Dyken has a writing style that really blends in some unique elements that just seem to really work so well together. I was really fascinated by this one. It also has a tortured dark hero with a shy sweet heroine of sorts. I love the parallels of their personalities that may seem to not work together, but they fit so right because our heroine is strong when he needs someone to stand up to him when the pain is getting too much for him. I really found the family dynamics in this one to be quite interesting and the romance was delectable at times. I really didn't have a issue with this book. It wasn't quite a five star and honestly it was almost a week ago since I read this one so I am just not sure what my exact issue was that kept it from a five star, but I did enjoy it for the most part so it gets a solid 4 star for me. Very eager to see what happens next in the series though.
