Warlock: The Last Mafia Boss โ Finale was the perfect close to an unforgettable series. It captured everything I loved about this worldโits darkness, passion, and the fight for redemption amidst chaos. Cassian โWarlockโ Alexandreโs journey comes full circle here. Once forged by The Hollow and consumed by vengeance, he finds something stronger than blood or powerโlove. Aria DeLuca was supposed to be his redemption, but she became so much more: his mirror, his match, his fire. Their bond felt raw, powerful, and beautifully human amid the brutality of their world. Reignโs return brought the chaos I expected and the ending she definitely deserved. Watching her downfall was as satisfying as it was symbolicโproof that even the cruelest legacies can burn out. I did feel for Chy; her struggles with identity and belonging added a layer of heartbreak that made the story even more emotional. Overall, this finale was gripping, poetic, and full of fire. It reminded me that love can rise from ashes, and even kings built from pain can still find peaceโif only for a moment. A great read and a beautiful farewell to the Black Flame Mafia universe.

This is a must-read book.
I am not gonna lie, when Brickhouse announced Warlock series, I did not read, I could not read. I read 1st 10 chapters and stopped cold. I knew I couldnโt be patient and read when each book came out. So as a Christmas/birthday gift I read all three and I was right to do it that way for me. Warlockโs story was everything Brick said it was gonna be and more. Reign was evil a terror. Chick reminds me of my crazy mother. The way Brick has abilities to pull out every emotion through her storytelling and wove everything together is a gift. This for me ended on a high note and was glad to read some familiar characters in her newest book. This series is an all around five hope you enjoy as much as I did Kayla Tolbert Roney Birmingham, Alabama

Warlock and Arial they are made for each other..a unique love story was through war and sacrifice..Warlock evil mother Reign always been a weird sick one ..and now I see why Arial called her out on her B.S. she had a sick undercover love for her son Warlock..he probably knew he she was sick in the head .. wanting to get away from her.I love Arial she always been the Queen of Black flame .now sheโs Queen of warlock king of Hollow flame.now both flames unite and the fire is put out. Here is the sunshine. I hope itโs a part 4 A happy baby shower..
This series is fabulous. I can't recommend it highly enough. The characters and the storyline are perfect. I must say I'm sorry that the series is ending. But, what an ending! Warlock has been through so much. But you can see the growth in him as he comes into his own and finds the love that was meant for him. His mother is a psychopath. Aria has also come into her own. She has done the flame proud. Two strong wills that are meant to be together. I don't want to give anything else away. Read the book; you won't be disappointed. It was my absolute pleasure reading this series.
Aria was not the one to play with! She was with all the bullshit. I couldnโt believe Chy!!! Turned into the very person she hated and honestly I donโt feel bad for her. Warlock Warlock Warlock that been through hell LITERALLY and all he wanted was a love that will stay and donโt leave him. Warlock was use to dealing with fragile Chy and Aria was used to running away when things got too sticky for her. They both had to learn to communicate and trust each other through the fire. Warlock deserved this HEA.
I truly loved the Surrogate series that led us here but i donโt care for books that have conflict between the mmc/fmc THE WHOLE TIME. They get an HEA ON THE LAST 5% and we donโt even get to witness it on page. Didnโt get to see Warlock soften as a father and actually see him interact with his child on page. Sure he soften in his ways for Aria.. in which many of those times he needed to be the War we knew him to be cause her trying to โlil boyโ him throughout the book in front of people seemed emasculating to him and the position of power he holds. Reign and Chyโs ending was anticlimactic as well.
The author is a solid writer but this fell short for me.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Her taking care of a bomb ๐ฃ with not tools was dumb and didn't make sense ๐. Him being able to talk to her under the door while in darkness was dumb and didn't make sense. Him not considering that she was alive after what his mother did to his father was dumb. Her getting them both out of the machine makes no sense. The machine working to kill the mother for him makes no sense. And why didn't the mother give her a shot of drugs to get her back hooked instead of all that talking? Bringing in the wife part was stupid after 2 books about the other girl.
I have to start with vonne snake ssa you hating on someone else because she son you and wanted him to take up for nope and reign was really sick in the head and the way she mind fu..ed cyn is sad but in the end aria proved why she wore the crown but kyro took me out when he said he greased himself up so the monsters canโt get him thanks again for giving us another banger
This was one of the best series I have ever read. It was action from beginning to end. I read the series, Surrogate To An Unhinged Mafia Boss, which is related to the Warlock series. Brickhouse is now one of my favorite authorsโฆ I will be reading more of their books.
I was waiting for this, and Brickhouse did the damn thing. I loved seeing the soft side of Warlock and everyone coming together. Hope we can see more of the crew in future books. Just wish Reign suffered a little more, she went out way to easy and quickly.
ARIA!!!! Thatโs it thatโs the post. That woman earned all her respect. I gotta give to the author tho. The suspense was real, the tears was real. And overall I loved the book
Now THATS how you end a series!! Brickhouse doesnโt miss!! This book was sooooo good. Iโm sad that itโs ending but I do understand that everything must have an ending. This finale was the perfect ending and finally Reign got what she deserved and then some!! I donโt feel bad about Chy at allโฆโฆโฆ๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ
When I say she had me fโed up from the very beginning! Thatโs what I mean. She is diabolical with her pen game! Because who mind works like this! Had me on the edge of my seat the entire time! Wanting to cuss her out! But canโt sensational!
The Warlock Series, was outstanding. It took you from laughter to crying to praying. So many highs and lowes. I rooted for Warlock. He was tough and deadly, but true love saved him. Thanks Brickhouse for the series.
I didn't even know this came out but I'm glad it did I finished it in 1 day worth the wait Warlock's mom was something else that ain't a lady I ever wanna come across in my life
Maybe im being biased but i swear i feel like every mew release gets better and better. The way you bring these characters to life amazes me. I be SAT every release day, anticipating whats next! So proud of you Brick!
I thought the other series was good. This series was everything! My emotions were all over the place. Loved it!! Now I need to find something else to read by this author!!
This series had me laughing, punching the air, and crying! As an urban author myself it was the break I needed to give my mind rest and get into the mind of another creator. It was a good escape to this crazy world. You wonโt put it down.
What a conclusion to Warlockโs story! While I was rooting for Chy, it was made very clear that Aria was the queen for Warlock. They fought and bleed for their happy ending and I was so happy for them.
She didn't disappoint with this ending! I've been glued to this series. I loved loved it โค๏ธ. Drama true feelings unexpected ending. Please read this series.
