Axel by Kelly Finley
5.0
dark funny medium-paced

"There’s something about Axel, his brothers, and their world that doesn’t feel like a trap. Not anymore. It feels like a treasure. It feels like I don’t ever want to leave."

Axel gets all the steamy delicious possessive 'not mafia' stars. This book is all spitting venom enemies energy turned heated all consuming passion. Ruby works for Axel. Her mission is to provoke and challenge him. Meanwhile he is loving every minute, as he has already decided that she is his queen.

It's hard to summarise how good this book is. It is part of an interconnected series so there are multiple layers to the narrative. It leaves you wanting as there are so many questions to answer and stories to tell. This is a gripping and addictive series filled with kink, empowerment, love, tension and passion.

Ruby is a vibrant and feisty character. No KF book is complete without a fabulously feisty FMC to be adored. But Ruby is just that little bit extra. She is the first queen as Axel is heir. She shows strength, ingenuity, care and has a big old set of balls too. Ruby is the perfect challenge to Axel's OTT primal possessiveness.

Heated, addictive, gripping, secret society/ex mafia romance filled with boundary pushing and a celebration of love.
