My Review:

This book was a pure delight and so refreshing. Something I have loved about this series is the refreshing feel of a take it has on the mafia world that this author has created. I love the humor, the banter between the family members but also the deep heart that is hidden in the layers of the story. This features our hero, who has been working undercover for the FBI but is becoming entrenching and bonded with this mafia family. Then we have our heroine, who is damaged and hiding the abuse she suffered with bravado and a prickly outer core. But Tank knows that something is wrong, something that hurt his girl to turn her from bright and bubbly and sweet into being bitter and outrageous in ways that don't fit her heart.

I loved seeing Tank work on our heroine, to dig deep and peel one layer at a time to really understand the woman he loves, and to shed his own ego and pride and share their own vulnerabilities together. The sense of family is powerful in these books and they get so outrageous and fun, so its definitely not your normal mafia romance you normally read. I had a fun time with Mafia King and this was a good one to be part of the 1001 Dark Nights series as well. Definitely eager to explore the rest of the series.
