One by one, my secrets start to unravel, revealed by my enemy, while I search for him.
The three mafia kings who care about me are about to discover what I really am. When they do, I might become their enemy. Hunted and betrayed. Shattered by the men who promised to stand by me.
With a secret this dark, is there anyone I can really trust?
This is a reverse harem/ why choose with darker themes. Please heed TWs.

This was…so good! I devoured this book even faster than I did the first one! Like…dayum!
Mira’s story continues in this book, with her healing and getting back to business - being a super secret assassin. But, she wants to keep this hidden from her boyfriends (?) and new family because of the events that led up to her kidnapping. However, things don’t always go to plan, and these secrets cannot be kept if Kurt is to be found and destroyed.
One of my favorite things about this book is that we got Mira’s POV, but this time we also got Damon’s POV instead of Reuben’s like the last time. I’m hoping this trend continues, and in the third book we get Gianni’s POV, because I love being able to see each of these men TRY to resist Mira’s pull, but fail at every turn, and in fact help her heal and get better.
Mira’s healing journey in this book is more accelerated because she finally has to let her new family in. And I love it! Her sassy side came out a lot more in this book, making me laugh a lot more :) I especially loved her interactions with the three boys, because she clearly knew and didn’t know her effect on them, making some of their reactions so much better!
This book made me giggle, smile, and just insanely happy for Mira, because she deserves the world. Cannot wait till Book 3 comes out, because I HAVE to know how this ends!

I loved the first book in this series so knew I absolutely devour and love this one too. Mira's story continues in this book and her healing from her trauma that happened but she also needs to get back to business and that business is being a super secret assassin called The Sparrow!!!!
Mira wants to keep this hidden from the men in her life and her family but she can't hold that information back any longer....this is a big secret that needs coming out if they are to find Kurt. Urgh I love Mira and her three men Reuben, Damon and Gianni. These men will do all they can to protect her and stand by her side to bring down the man who kept her hostage for 5 years.
I love how each and every one of them try and resist Mira but they can't help but fall for her. We get to see more of Mira and her sassy/feisty side in this, she doesn't hold back anymore. The spice is still slow burning but it's acceptable because of what Mira went through. The banter between them all is hilarious 😆 I honestly can't wait for third book to see how this ends.

Honestly…. Best mafia series I’ve ever read. I just can’t get enough of it! The RH is Amazing!! 1 girl 3 guys. And the guys all are into each other as well. First off. FMC she is probably the strongest FMC I’ve ever read. It’s completely inspiring how much she continues to face and push herself through even in this second book I’m in awe. The dudes I loved that we got to look deeper into the guys and what they have been through I absolutely love all of them together. Lots of spice I’d give it a 3/5 on spice since the FMC is still going through learning to trust again. The banter is absolutely hilarious. Even the twins crack me up! This book is so well written you will not be able to put it down. Literally read this second book in less than 24 hours. Some series fall after the first book this isn’t the case here it just keeps getting better! -Kerin

I loved the first book of the series and was so excited for this one to come out and it did not disappoint. I am looking forward to the third book just as much as the first two. This is a slow burn mafia romance, it deals with a lot of trauma from her being captive and tortured for several years so please read all trigger warnings.
Mina and her three men, Damon, Reuben and Gianni are continue to scour the county for the man who kept Mina captive. As Mina gets back to her real line of business she has to chose between keeping her secret and letting her men in. I loved getting to see the relationship between them continue to develop and the trust that Mina puts in them with everything they have been through.
I can't wait to see what the next chapter brings and look forward to seeing more of their relationship develop.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie's Book Reports.
I am going to warn you that this book is amazing. You are not going to be able to lay it down. This is the second book in the Sparrow and the Mafia Kings series. You will need to read the first book or you will be lost. This book picks up where we left off with Mira on the mend. However she is not about to let her top secret work fall the wayside. She also has a new family and they don't need to know what happened to her. I loved this book there were so many twists and turns. I don't want to give anything away. You just need this book in your life. I am loving this series so much.

This is the second book in this impressive series, and this is Mina and her three mafia kings, Damon, Reuben, and Gianni’s journey.
This is a well written slow burn, emotional roller coaster, with secrets, family, friendships, challenges, enemies / lovers, trust, trauma, an age gap, humor, witty banter, revenge, why choose, romance, healing, reverse harem, undeniable chemistry, and love, which leads to an entertaining, dark, and steamy addictive page turner.
I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

Wow! I absolutely loved this continuation of Mina’s story. Amazing characters and wonderful plot. Very beautifully written and easy to read.
Mina heals and gets back to business. Mina and her men, Damon, Rueben, Gianni are one step closer to revenge. I loved the chemistry between Mina and the guys. They tried to resist her, but can’t. They’re made for each other.
Overall I loved this book very much. I definitely recommend reading it.

August 2, 2024Book 2 did not disappoint...I loved it!!
There was drama, some suspense, secrets, some spice, and so many emotions can be felt. We also got some humor throughout.
I love Mina even more in this book.
The growth and healing she goes through made me so happy.
We also get to see the relationships between Mina and the men get closer. We learn a little more about them as well.
I think this was a great addition to the series and I can't wait to see what happens in book 3!!

I can't get enough of Mina and her mafia kings. Ruined is packed full of action, danger, humor, witty banter, secrets and off the chart chemistry. I love the dynamics between not just Mina and her men but between Reuben, Damon and Gianni as well. We get to see a lot more steamy action as Mina heals more from her trauma. This story is emotional, addicting and beautifully written. I can't' wait to see how their journey ends!!

Ruined is book 2 in the Sparrow and Mafia Kings series and must be read after book 1. Mina and her guys are one step closer to revenge and have come together. They all work really well together and the bedroom scenes are steamy. Can’t wait for Kurt to get what is coming to him and Mina can find peace. Secrets are out but the trust between them is strong.

Revenge best served
I am so glad to see Mina returning to herself or a new version of herself. She is letting in Reuben, Gianni, and Damon also accepting her place as family to them and the rest of the Brantley brothers. The twins are epic as usual and I love how they consider Mina a sister without pause.
Let's see if we get any answers or find a Kurt punching bag.

This complex story continues with each of our main four characters getting closer to one another, in all different combinations. Mina is slowly regaining her memories and her strength in finding out who she was and who she is now. "I hate telemarketers", so, so hilarious! This book is a definite page turner.

Now we are finally starting to see everyone’s true colors and I love the hot factor that was added into this story. I didn’t see it going that way. Now on to the next book

Loving this series and kinda shocked it doesn't have more reviews!
The second book was just as good as the first, and I can't wait to see what happens next! I'm really hoping Mina gets her revenge and closure!

What can I say, this book was impossible to not devour. I was hooked from start to finish. I love the dynamic between Mina and the guys; her being the Sparrow just makes her more bada!!

Getting further into the book, Mina comes clean with her men, and let them know she is The Sparrow and assassin.
There’s some spice so far.
