Ruthless Heir (Mafia Elite Book 5) by Amy McKinley – Review by Kayla Kearney

Ruthless Heir: An Enemies to Lovers Mafia Romance by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book had me hooked from the very beginning, as per usual with this author! She captivated me with character of Summer, who is fleeing from people who have all but put a bounty on her, when she meets Luc and is whisked away to the mafia world in Chicago. As with her other books, the author kept me wondering what would happen next with the end of every chapter, and kept with her tradition of showing the viewpoint from each character.

This book has been my favorite in the series so far because of the characters unique connections to the mafia unlike the characters before them. Summer captivated my interest very early on in the book and kept it the entire time. I was slow to like Luc with his brash and distrusting behavior early on in the book, but the more the story went on and we learned things about his past as well as discover along with him things he never knew, he has definitely grown to be one of my favorite male characters this author has written about. The romance that blossoms between them is also one I will not soon forget, as they both realize throughout the story just how much they have in common and how much each needs the other in their lives.

I absolutely loved seeing the old characters making appearances throughout the book, I’ve always been a huge fan of how she does this in every series she has written. Before finishing the book I discovered she has already started on another book in the series, and needless to say, I’m really excited to read it!
