Alfie and Molly are possibly my favourite couple of the second generation and you know why because it is definitely a battle of the wills when it comes to these two which makes them ever so perfect together.
Molly is a billionaire, and you know what we love powerful business women here (coming from a woman in finance) and she has got her eye on some buildings in Las Vegas but the only issue is that the owners are unwilling to sell. The reason for this is Las Vegas is under the control of Alfie’s family and he has decided that Molly has no business in vegas but do you think that’s gonna stop her? Absolutely not, so she decides to fly to vegas to deal with the problem personally.
When these two collide it was like a firework went off. Molly knew exactly how to push Alfie’s buttons and I was absolutely here for it. He may have been the King but she was the Queen coming for his throne. You could honestly cut the tension between these two with a spoon and this made their interactions and also intimate moments ever so sweet🤭
Even though Alfie tried to play the part of stern on the outside there was no denying that he was obsessed with Molly and he realised that he actually wanted to share his throne with this remarkable woman.
To keep it short and sweet I absolutely loved this story and I cannot wait for our next couple. Thank you to the author who provided this e-arc for my honest thoughts 💭

Powerful, Romantic, and beautiful !
Claiming His Throne is such a beautiful story. It has rivals-to-lovers, a billionaire FMC, mafia MMC, and so much more.
The story follows Molly, who wants to buy several properties on the Vegas Strip, but Alfie and his family are determined to stop her from getting them.
I really loved Molly’s character. She is a true go-getter, confident, and ambitious. Seeing a billionaire FMC was refreshing because it’s not something I come across often in romance books.
Alfie is such a sweetheart. From the moment he claimed Molly, he knew there was no going back, and I loved how protective and devoted he was toward her.
I also loved how the author wrote Alfie’s relationship with his family and cousins. Their bond was beautifully portrayed, and it was so nice seeing another side of the characters from the Owning Vegas series.
This is a 4-star read that I recommend.

3.5⭐️ business rivals to lovers
This book was insta lust and insta feelings. There’s almost no push and pull they’re just instantly together. The backstory plot didn’t really go anywhere or get solved. Not sure if that’s in the next book or what. Usually these books are interconnected standalones.
It was a quick easy read

Molly is truly amazing!
I don’t think I have read a book that had such a strong and capable FMC that held her ground was impressive in her own capacity and held her ground. She had a kind heart was just fantastic.
The whirlwind romance on par with the series had me captivated throughout the book!
I would have loved to have seen further into their future!!!

✨ Tropes ✨: 2nd gen / family / she's the billionaire / confort reading / cameos : fast paced
Molly arrive à Las Vegas pour acheter des immeubles. Alfie ne veut pas vendre (ils détiennent tout Las Vegas).
C'est mims on revoit tout le monde, pas de frustration, ça se lit tout seul.

Quotes 💭 :
✦ “Scared of your mama knowing you’re drinking this early in the day, Alfie?”
✦Alfie spins his glare on me. He leans down again. “I don’t let other people play with my toys, Molly, so you might want to rephrase that.”
✦Another tear escapes my eye. I don’t like him being this nice to me. I don’t know how to handle it. I don’t want to like him.

“Claiming His Throne” is the fourth book in the “Owning Vegas 2nd Generation Series.” Louie and Charlotte Giuliani are Alfie’s parents - he will eventually take over as head of the family and empire when his dad officially retires. Molly Olive is a self made billionaire from Seattle. She is CEO of her property development company the Olive Group that has its eyes on four properties on The Strip in Las Vegas. All four properties have seen better days but not a single current owner wants to sell to her. Deciding that the best way to deal with the owner’s, is to be on the ground in Vegas….
Meeting with her Nevada team in the morning, she is advised that the owners will not talk to them. Adam informs her of some local facts…. “I mean, I’m not surprised. You do know who owns this city, don’t you? They won’t do anything without the approval of the Giulianis.” She has not taken no as an answer in the past, and she certainly will not know, and decides to visit the owners herself, but gets the same response. With Alfie being stubborn and possesive, with a strength of character the town in, has Molly met her match?
After arriving back in her room after a few drinks, she finds Alfie waiting for her. After establishing that she is sober….”Good girl,” he growls before his lips press right next to my mouth and then he steps back, the loss of his touch leaving me cold.” With Alfie being able to read her like a book, and her treacherous body responding to him, she is at his whim….body language does not lie! Alfie cannot get last night out of his mind….”I’ve had good sex before. Great ******* sex. Nothing compares to what last night was, though. I haven’t been able to get her out of my head.” With both Alfie and Molly being very strong people, and both extremely stubborn, they are evenly matched.
The story is full of passion, humor, intrigue, betrayal, vengeance, power, control, twists and turns around every corner - most of all love. There is never a dull moment. When these too clash, it is like an explosion has gone off….at other times you could cut the air with a knife with how tense things become between them. With the book going from pages that sizzle, to extreme violence, to the most beautiful tender moments, it is never dull!
“Because you’re always in control. You run an entire empire, Molly. You want to let go. You want to be able to clear your mind and focus on only the sensations I’m going to make you feel. You want to relinquish your control to me, because in doing so, you’ll gain more power, more clarity than you’ve ever had.”
You will fall in love with Alfie and Molly, with both knowing how to push each other’s buttons. They actually bring out the worst and the best in each other. There is never a dull moment - you will be hooked! I know I was - just love these two! A thoroughly enjoyable read from page to page, one chapter to the next - at times you are metaphorical “on the edge of your chair” wondering what will happen next. Overall, I would highly recommend this book and you will not be disappointed 😊

Molly is a powerhouse corporate baddie who has set her mind to expanding her empire into Las Vegas. But when she meets the hot prince of Vegas, Alfie Giuliani, who stands in her way, she realizes that taking over his town isn’t going to be as easy cause he’s committed to taking over her heart in return.
Ahhhh this was such a fun read! We already got a little glimpse of Alfie in Frankie and Emilio's book so I was really excited to finally get his story and it definitely didn't disappoint. These two had so much banter together, their chemistry was super on point and I was smiling through so many of their interactions. My only complaint? It was too short! I genuinely could've read so much more of them and would've loved an extra epilogue just to spend a little more time with them in the future.
Alfie and Molly just worked so well together. They're both incredibly driven, confident people who are used to taking charge, but somehow they never competed with each other. Instead, they matched each other's energy so well and it really made me love both of them so much cause their love for each other was way more of a priority for them than their interests. I also loved how quickly their relationship developed, it actually reminded me so much of Louis and Charlotte, where once they knew they just knew. There was no unnecessary back and forth, they just accepted that hey, this is my person and let’s just be together forever.
One of my favourite things about the book was Alfie and just how supportive he was. He became Molly's biggest cheerleader from the very beginning, encouraging her ambitions instead of feeling threatened by them. And Molly was such a boss! She knew exactly what she wanted professionally, but I loved watching her slowly let those walls down and allow Alfie into her life.
As always, Kylie Kent has such a talent for writing these shorter second gen stories. They're quick, fun, and feel like such a treat for readers who've followed these families from the very beginning. And I have to say, I was laughing so hard at all the Frankie and Emilio "kissing cousins" jokes, keep them coming babe! Alfie wasn't afraid to roast his siblings, and those family moments honestly made the book even more enjoyable.
Now excuse me while I impatiently wait for Daniella and CJ's book because a Vegas and DeBellis crossover is honestly the best thing Kylie could've done. Two of my favorite worlds are about to collide, and I am SO ready.

**Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4 Stars) — A fluffy, steamy, enemies-to-lovers mobster romance that hits all the right notes! 👑🖤**
It is absolutely no surprise that I am rating yet another Kylie Kent book so high! She is hands down one of my top favorite authors, and I just love everything she writes. Every single book she puts out, I devour in one sitting! 📖💨 I don't know exactly what it is about her writing; she's not writing anything super unique or groundbreaking, but everything she writes just *works* for me perfectly. ✨
In this one, we follow Alfie, our MMC, who we know as the oldest son of Charlotte and Louie from *His Kingdom*. 👑 Alfie is your typical mobster who is training to take over the family business. He's luckily not a playboy, but he definitely enjoys the company of women, so he's no virgin. Lol. 😏 Alfie also enjoys some very specific kinks, especially dominating and inflicting the *good* kind of pain on his sexual partners. ⛓️🔥
Then we meet Molly, our FMC, and she is a total badass businesswoman from Seattle. 🏙️ She is a self-made billionaire CEO of a real estate development company, and she absolutely does not like taking "no" for an answer in her business. 💼👠 She has her sights set on a few buildings on the Las Vegas Strip... and well, Alfie doesn't want to sell to outsiders. 🎲🚫
And so begins a rather fluffy, highly entertaining enemies-to-lovers story! 🖤
I absolutely loved their back-and-forth dialogue, and when the tension finally broke, they got *pretty* steamy! 🥵 Of course, Alfie was incredibly obsessive and possessive of Molly, even before he realized exactly why. Molly was a blast to read with her take-no-shit attitude. She is truly the definition of a girl boss, and yet I loved her bowing so easily to Alfie's orders in the bedroom! Such a hot contrast! 🔥💋
Next up is CJ and Daniella in *Taking His Heart*, so you know I will be back with that review—probably on release day! Lol. 📅❤️

Take a bow Alfie Guliani. Alfie says it best himself “my father might be the king of this town, but it’s me he’s groomed to take that spot on the throne. I am made in his image. But better, more improved. Where he might have morals, I choose to push mine deep down and get the job done”. Alfie flies his red flags high, is delightfully morally grey and hot as sin.
He’s taken down by the enemy, Molly Olive. She’s trying to buy up parts of the strip and our Vegas favs are not happy about it. While Alfie and the family have made sure to block her, Molly has decided to make the deal herself and has arrived in Vegas to get what she wants.
Molly is a self made billionaire and hasn’t let anything stand in her way. She’s not going to let Alfie and his supposed mafia ties to interfere in his plans. Molly was a fantastic FMC. She was smart, strong willed and can work a room to bend to her will.
She never once let Alfie crush her under his thumb and despite letting Alfie boss her around in the bedroom he never controlled her anywhere else. He might not have liked her plans and wanted to stop them but he was equally proud when she makes a deal.
Of course, what’s a mafia story without some trouble and things certainly get dangerous for the pair.
Seeing the rest of the Vegas crew popping in and out was a treat and having Louie and Charlotte back was fun. Molly’s bestie/assistant, Angus, was the perfect companion for Molly. He was her friend first, her sounding board, her unwavering support and a damn good assistant. He was a great addition to the story and made a big impact.
The drama the family had going on was the perfect accompaniment to all the relationship ups and downs and all the drama. Let’s be honest all the spice was just the icing on the cake.
I can’t wait for more of the Owning Vegas second generation to come but I don’t know if anyone will be able to take Alfie’s throne.
Happy Reading.

Molly, a billionaire, who wants to purchase some buildings in Las Vegas, but she can't get through the owners because of the Giuliano family, who control the city, won't let them sell those buildings to her. When she realises there is no possibility of success, she decides to take matters into her own hands and travels to Las Vegas to personally persuade them.
Molly is a tough, independent, confident, and smart woman who won't give up on her ambitions, even if it means resorting to dirty methods. However, she wasn't expecting that Alfie would be the one to show and ignite some hidden cravings.
Alfie is a strong, possessive, and stubborn guy who wants to keep control in his city. He is the one who can deal with Molly's attitude and get her to submit to him.
The tension between them was like a firework as soon as they laid eyes on one another. The attraction and desires are too intense and powerful, even if they make an effort to keep away from each other and dislike one another.
Spending more time together makes them realise how well they fit together, even if they decide to spend it only to satisfy each other's needs. Their bantering, connection and spice moments are incredible. Alfie's cousins also added a humorous touch to the narrative.
Overall I fully enjoyed reading this book.

So let me get this straight... she's a self-made bad ass billionaire with her own empire, he's the future mafia boss of Las Vegas, she literally SHOT at him thinking he was an intruder... and this man still couldn't stay away from her?! SAY. LESS. 😭🖤
Molly and Alfie were EVERYTHING.
Can we please normalize more FMCs like Molly? As a woman in finance, I LOVED seeing a powerful businesswoman who built her own empire, knew exactly what she wanted, and wasn't afraid to go after it. She didn't need anyone to save her, and that's what made her so incredible.
And Alfie? 😮💨
This man thought he could scare Molly out of Vegas... instead, he became completely obsessed with the one woman who challenged him at every turn. Watching the king of Vegas realize he wanted someone to stand beside him instead of behind him? I ate that UP.
The banter, the chemistry, the tension... these two were constantly trying to outsmart each other, and I couldn't get enough.
✨ Mafia romance
✨ Self-made billionaire FMC
✨ Enemies to lovers
✨ He falls first
✨ Powerful businesswoman
✨ Touch her & die vibes
✨ King & Queen energy
Molly officially became one of my favorite FMCs. Give me more women who build empires and bring powerful mafia men to their knees. 🖤📚

Review of advance copy received from Author
Molly is such a badass!!! A powerhouse of a woman! She’s strong, independent, determined and a perfect match for a Kylie Kent MMC!!! She is definitely a ball busting kind of woman, and I loved her determination to get what she wanted, and that she was a self-made billionaire who needed nothing from anyone! I loved that we got a truly independent, career woman as a MFC!
Alfie is a powerful, calculating man set to inherit the Guiliani throne and empire! He’s the perfect mob boss character! He’s also sweet, family oriented and loving!! He continues to say he doesn’t have a heart, but that is so far from the truth!! But then again all of Kylie’s MMCs think themselves to be the cold hearted, stone cold killer men, but they are all soft for just the right people, and Alfie is no exception!!!
Im still in shock over one part in this book and that it went down that way…. IYKYK! That hurt my heart Kylie!! 🥺🥺🥺
Loved getting to see a sneak peak at the upcoming characters!! That’s always so special!!
It’s always a great day when I get to get lost in the Kylie-verse!! Definitely a great read!! 💯 recommend this book!!! Can be a standalone but it’s always better to know all the players!!

This whole series has become my newest obsession! Every release leaves me hanging on the edge of my seat, desperate for the next book… and now I’m counting down until #TakingHisHeart.
But Claiming His Throne? I was completely obsessed with Alvie and Molly. For now, they’re officially my favourite couple… although knowing Kylie Kent, the next book might just change my mind!
Alvie is our irresistible mafia MMC who sets his sights on Molly, convinced he can handle her and run her out of Vegas. Oh, how wrong he is.
Molly is everything I love in an FMC—brilliant, fiercely independent, a self-made billionaire, and completely unafraid to stand her ground. She gives as good as she gets, and watching these two go head-to-head was absolute perfection.
This was one of those books where I kept telling myself, “Just one more chapter…”… and before I knew it, I’d read half the book!
My mafia girlies, if I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again… GET. THIS. BOOK. Kylie Kent is an absolute queen of mafia romance, and this series just keeps getting better.
Happy reading! 🖤📖

Honestly this whole series is amazing and this book from start to finish is such a good read. Kylie knows how to write and write well. I couldn't put this book down it keeps you hanging on having you say to yourself just one more chapter until you end up reading the entire book with no breaks or sleep haha.
I love the FMC Molly she is a total bad@$$ and has to be one of my favourite FMCs she totally knows what she wants and goes for it without any apologies. I also love how strong she is and that she will take no crap from anyone including men who think they know better.
I will say though this is the first book of Kylie's I'v thought to myself why Kylie why!!! IYKYK
What to say about the MMC the only thing really without giving too much away is Alfie is the MAN! Now if he could just teach others what they should be doing it would save us all a lot of time and effort lol. Alfie Alfie Alfie 😍
Definitely recommend reading this book and the entire series.

This is the fourth book in the Owning Vegas 2nd Gen series. Alfie Giuliani is known as a charmer but also ruthless when it comes to his family. He’s also the eldest child which makes him the heir. The Giulianis run Vegas. They are in charge of what happens in their city. So when someone threatens to invade their turf in the form of buying out buildings, they will stop at nothing. Alfie makes sure no one sells. When he meets Molly, the one who wants the properties, he has met his match. Molly is smart, fearless and loves her job and she will not let anyone stand in her way. However, when they meet face to face, the attraction is instant and they begin a fling. What will happen when feelings are involved? Will one walk away and give it all up? This was an emotional roller coaster. It is filled with trauma, danger, humor, heat, hilarious banter, and some unexpected surprises.

My Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice level/ 🌶️🌶️🌶️
Tropes: mafia romance, second generation, found family, forced proximity, enemies to lovers, kink exploration, mob prince x CEO FMC, knife play
If you enjoy Kylie Kent’s writing or previous Owning Vegas books then you will enjoy this. Alfie was caught off guard by Molly and instantly became obsessed with her. Molly didn’t back down from Alfie and his intimidation tactics when she was trying to purchase buildings. Alfie gave in to his feeling and showed up and supported Molly not only with her sick mom but the kidnapping. Molly tried to resist but eventually gave in to her feelings. Like father, Alfie locked down Molly quickly. As always I enjoyed this book and it was a quick read!

BEST BOOK OF THE SERIES!
Loved Alfie and Molly from the off! It was the perfect enemies to lovers. The way he made her feel safe, loved and gave her every one of her desires. Loved that Molly didn’t really resist either so there’s wasn’t much going back and forth between the pair.
The plot was effortless. You knew everything was going well and something was going to happen but I’m glad that it brought them closer together. The family aspect is one of the best parts. Rarely do we get the next generation so getting to see all the family still be part of the story is amazing.
This book was the sauciest out of the lot. Lots of spice and exploring. Made so much sense towards their characters and the chemistry was top notch. Already awaiting the next book in the series!

Alfie and Molly have a banter that is so fun to read about! She doesn’t immediately fall for his charm and tells him multiple times she’ll „claim his throne“. At first he doesn’t want to believe it - why should he? - but he is very proud of her in the end. They truly make a great couple to own Las Vegas.
We get to see glimpses of the first couples of the series as well as the first generation. In this book we see Charlotte & Louie as parents - the couple that started my Kylie Kent journey - so their kids always feel extra special to me. Tis book didn’t disappoint me and I really recommend it!
Thank you Kylie Kent and her team for an eARC in exchange for an honest review. 🤍

I swear any Kylie Kent book can get me out of a reading slump, I just have such a good time reading ANY of her books and this was no different. (Thank you for the EARC).
I had such a good time reading this book, I loved the competitive nature of our FMC, Molly she is a strong BILLIONAIRE, self made and is an absolute boss b*tch and I LOVE IT. Alfie is our perfect MMC, such a secure man than he’s not threatened by Molly’s success and that’s exactly what she needs.
I loved their dynamic and I’m ALWAYS happy to see Tio E 🤭🤭 even if it’s just a tiny bit, he’ll always be my fave I think. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, just the right amount of relationship drama, plot and spice.

Omg, Alfie and Molly were pure fire in all capacities! First of all the chemistry was......well, let's just say it started with a bang and never let up! The banter and was fun, flirty, sassy, and just plain fantastic in every way. These two were both stubborn and head strong, but they both fell fast and Alfie quickly went from wanting her gone to wanting her to succeed. Sure the push and pull were fantastic, but they fall was so much better! I don't want to give anything away but I will say there is a couple parts that made me tear up. Some were from heartbreak and others from happiness, but overall this story was fun, spicy, engaging and addictive.

Alfie and Molly were so much more fun than I anticipated. I loved Molly in badass boss mode! Not just girl boss, but a BOSS! The chemistry with the two of them from the get go was so good. She didn't cower at Alfie and all he represented. He also wasn't led by his ego at her being the absolute force of nature she was. Of course, the spice was fabulous. The banter amongst them all was gold, as usual. I read Kylie's books because she is one author who really does justice of having multiple generations because we get to see them all at some capacity. I can already tell the next installment is going to be so good!

This fourth story of Alfie and Chloe was really good. Chloe is a rich businesswoman who is going after what she wants and that is 3 buildings on the Las Vegas Strip. When her team can’t get it done, she goes to Las Vegas herself. There is a reason they have not been able to obtain those buildings. It’s because of Alfie Giuliani. Alfie and his family don’t want outsiders to come in and disrupt their legal and illegal businesses. Therefore he is not going to let her obtain what she wants. But in trying to make that happen he falls first. There was humor, suspense, and also extreme sadness in the story. I truly enjoyed the story. I look forward to the next in the series.

Loved loved loved Alfie and Molly. This book was amazing. From beginning to end, could not putting down.
Loved that the FMC takes no shit and goes after what she wants with no one getting in her way. Loved that the MMC wants that for her will not make it easy for her.
The banter and the enemies to lover Pull was perfect. The spice was spicing. Gah this book was just everything.
Bravo 👏

The book I’ve been waiting for
OMG Alfie and Molly are the couple. Both powerful and perfect for each other.
Kylie, why did you leave us with so many questions. How did Alfie get into BDSM, do they move to Las Vegas, what does their future look.
I can’t wait for the next installment with CJ and Danielle. Hopefully more of the entire family and can’t wait to see more about how they fight the Russians.

So obsessed with this series and this didn’t let me down! She is a bulldog when it comes to getting what she wants and he’s the king in Vegas not willing to budge. Seeing them cross each other, and having him fall first, spectacular! Read to find out why you’ll end up tearing up.

Molly and Alfie are literally couple goals! He is completely swoon-worthy and impossible to ignore, while she is fierce and doesn’t even try to resist him. Their incredible connection and witty banter keep you hooked through their entire journey, and by the end, I found myself wishing there was more.
