4.5

i really loved this entire series and i think this book was a very bittersweet ending to everything.

the only things i wish were expanded on more were enzo’s death, specifically how his children grieved

and some aspects of yelena and seb’s relationship- it felt very bland in some places, but the story was great overall! i’m sad to be ending the series, and my emotions were all over the place during this book, but i’m glad that yelena and seb got their hea!!

CW, gun violence, death of a loved one, dismemberment, torture, misogyny, abusive parental relationship, historical DV, SA

⭐ Hidden motive
⭐ Mafia romance 

Ooh this had me full of anxiety. So much happened in this book 👀 character deaths that broke my little heart, betrayal, sadness, a hero with such responsibility he didn't want nor need thrust on him, a heroine made to choose between her family (tbh they were dicks so I'd have bounced) and someone she loved. 

Uggghhhhh this was just the perfect end to the series and Kingmakers (which I read first for some reason 🤣) is such a natural progression which just flows from Heavy Crown to The Heir. 

10/10 would read again.
