Mafia King by Rachel Van DykenMy rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars
Mafia King is the new novella by
Rachel Van Dyken in the 1001 Dark Nights anthology. For me this was a one-click
purchase and I wasn’t disappointed. Mafia King tells the story of Tank and Kartini
‘Tiny’. Kartini is the oldest daughter of Sergio (who we’ve met in previous
novels) and although one of the younger siblings, she feels like she doesn’t
fit in with either adults or the children. That is until one night she has to make
a decision which will change the course of her life.
Tank also has to start making
decisions. Is he going to be part of the Family or the FBI? He has also sworn
to protect Tiny, not a small feat, especially when her snarkiness and need for self-destruction
seems to be everywhere he turns. He also can’t deny the attraction that he has
for her, even though he continues to fight her wily ways.
Together both Tank and Tiny just
make this story, they are so suited for one another. The book has enough
actions, drama and passion to keep you turning the pages. The rest of the
family are here too to add their opinion as well as letting us see what they
are up too. The only downside to this novella is how short it is. I would have
loved a longer book, but I feel that way about all of Ms. Van Dyken’s novels….there
just aren’t enough pages.
Overall, this was a great edition to the Mafia Royals series, and I can’t wait to see whose up next.
