Born in Darkness (Mafia Elite Book 3) by Amy McKinley – Review by Amy Brennan

Born in Darkness by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This installment brings us the development between Emiliana Vitale and Stefano Rossi. If you have read the previous novels, you will have some more information on them and the others that we have read about so far, and I really enjoy feeling as though we have already gotten to know a bit about these characters before delving deeper into their love story. Poor Em suffers from PTSD from her abduction a few years prior, where our knight in shining armor came to carry her right out of hell. Stefano has had to deal with his own ‘darkness’ being the son of Frank, devil incarnate, and has struggled with keeping his distance from Em only to keep her safe. I for one, was swept off my feet by their love story.

I have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of this new installment to this series. I have had my sleuth hat on from the very first novel, and I was very much looking forward to knowing whether I was right in my assumptions. I absolutely adore the way this author reels you in, and feeds you information, but with the twists and turns, and introductions of new characters, doubt creeps in. Of course, I won’t tell you who the rat in the Five Families was, but I was very proud of my skills. Another one for the books, highly recommend!
