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

Born in Darkness by Amy McKinley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am destined to be the King, but the only woman I ever wanted to be my queen is out of bounds. Can I survive my father’s rath and protect the woman I love, or will the family destroy anything I seek, plus with a traitor in our mist will I be able to live the life I want?

I fell in love a long time ago, but he is forbidden but I can not just stop loving him. We keep our relationship a secret for his sake and mine, but will I ever be able to come into the light and take what is mine.

As they try and navigate the life in the mafia, things are dangerous and with a traitor in the mix these two lovers are destined for heartbreak and tragedy. When Emiliana is attacked something shifts in her and she becomes a woman who is not to be messed with. Can they find out who is the mole within the five families and save themselves in the process you will have to read to find out?

This is a great addition to this series, and I think this was my favourite so far, Stefano and Emiliana have an enchanted love as you start the book with hidden secret encounters and stoles kisses it added an edge of excitement to the relationship.

The story was well developed and gripping all the way through, I loved the way the characters interacted with each other and you’re just willing them along. The hardship that is written with each words have your heart-breaking with each paragraph. I can’t wait to read the next instalment in this series and see what happens in the world of Five families.
