This book had a good storyline. Not as great as the first book. I'm excited to read the next book in the series

Oh Pierce! You are brutal. Cold. Angry. Deadly. But we can’t help but be drawn to you. And neither can Mila. Even though you kidnapped her!
This is book 2 in the Brooklyn Kings series and much darker than Jacob and Brenna’s story in book 1……….but also a well written, intriguing tale. An easy read, but be prepared for the dark mafia undertones. Mila is Russian. Pierce is the bodyguard (and cousin) to the head of the Italian mafia family. Who’s married to an Irish granddaughter of the head of THAT FAMILY. Confused ? Don’t be. Oh. And. Pierce hates the Russians who tortured his young sister. Wants to kill every last one. Then why can’t he stop caring about Mila? The more he learns about her, the more his cold dead heart comes to life.
I’m all for dark, deadly men who discover the right woman to crack open their hearts. Love those books. But. What I really love about this particular series is the women! These are strong women with pasts that should have wrecked them. But. They discover their inner strength. They stand up and defy these deadly mobsters. Mila may have been kidnapped but she discovers what’s behind the cold deadly Pierce at the same time he lets emotions other than anger come to light. Oh. I can’t wait to read Francesca and Gino’s story next!

I loved the first book but I really fall for Pierce.
The lion and his prey, the chemistry between this two ( I’m not imagining this) sorry if I’m not talking about Mila but I was not fond of Pierce. He is brutal and we def know why *his mom a B* I also love his protective side toward his little sister my heart was bleeding with love

This is the 2nd book in the Brooklyn Kings series! It follows Mila and Pierce. Mila is introduced in the first book as a Russian who was kidnapped and tortured. I loved seeing Pierce gain a soft sport for Mila even though they are supposed to be enemies.
This book was good, but not as good as the first book. I think I just LOOVEE mafia arranged marriage soo much that nothing will compare to Jacob and Brenna.
Still excited to read the next book of this series though!
