No matter how far she runs
I’ll chase her down
And bring her home to me

She’s so shattered by her past that she thinks she’s a curse.
Admitting my love for her will make her run.
But I can’t stand the thought of life without her.
Andrea took off.
Instead of trusting me, she ran.
Once more, she stripped away my power to protect her by giving me the slip to do who knows what.
And I’m furious. Filled to the brim with rage because I’m supposed to be keeping her safe. How can I do that when she runs?
What is she trying to prove?
I’m going to find her. No matter what I have to do or how I have to get her back. I’ll go to the ends of the earth to hunt her down and bring her home to me.
And when I catch her, I’m going to make sure she knows who’s boss this time.

As we come to the end if Andy and Matteo's story the suspense and drama come to a head. Who will take out the evil one? Will the obstacles in Andy and Matteo's way be overcome? Don't worry, if you like lots of sexy times mixed in with your suspense Glitter will satisfy all your needs.
Glitter is the perfect end to such a gripping tale. Mya Grey knows how to write the perfect romantic suspense stories.

It was all I could do to wait for the last book in this series and Mya does not dissapoint!!!! She seamlessly brought everything together, all the loose ends, and wrapped it up in a big fat red leather bow, lol. This was the perfect ending to this firery, fast paced, "blisters on my fingers from not reading fast enough" series. Those who had it coming to them got it, with a little hot sauce thrown in just for fun, just because. I had a physical reaction to particular parts of the book, I just couldn't help myself, fist pumping in the air, those scenes deserved no less than my enthusiastic cheers and humble applause not to mention the big F*'s (you'll know what I'm talking about) I was watching a Baseball game on television while coming to the end of a very satisfying scene with Willcott at the time, when the crowd broke out in a loud and thundering chant for one of the players, "YOU DESERVE IT!" Yes they absofu**inglutely did; the timing of the crowd chanting and clapping was perfect! And when you get to those scenes, you'll know exactly which ones I was referring to. Treat yourselves to this series because..."You deserve it too!" This is by far the best series that I've read in a while and I'm looking forward to starting the next.

You can't help but love this 5th and final instalment of Andy and Mateo's story, it's so explosive and has a totally unexpected conclusion.

Andy continues to run from Mateo in a bid to end Mark once and for all. She is one determined woman who is desperate to protect Mateo in the hope of finally getting revenge for her own past as well as for the death of her brother. The question is, can she succeed by herself or will she finally admit that she can work better with Mateo? One things for sure, if you didn't already think Mark deserved what is coming to him, you will after you read what he gets up to in this book! Bearing this in mind, please do read the trigger warnings - some scenes can easily upset some readers.

Mya Grey certainly knows how to draw you into a story from the start, the pace was so fast, full of unexpected twists and turns, I really did not see the middle or the end coming - the final part was totally unexpected and talk about good timing!

Mya Grey, thank you for writing such an intense, gripping, action packed, hot and steamy Mafia romance, you really have nailed Mafia writing as this was a fantastic series.

This is my voluntary, honest review after receiving an arc from the author.

Holy crap, now that's the way to end Mateo and Andy's story!!! I knew from the trigger warnings at the beginning that this was going to be rough at points, but damn was it amazing!!!! Mya knew she'd have to take this to a new level of suspense and action and she did not disappoint.

Poor Mateo loves such a strong willed woman, and keeps getting his heart stomped on. Poor Andy is so used to doing everything on her own, she doesn't know how to let Mateo help. Neither one wants the other to get hurt. But as they say, best laid plans...

In this last book, Andy is taken over by the need to avenge her brother's death. As I read this series, I could feel her pain, her heartache, at loosing the only person who truly loved her. My heart broke for her. To be so young and feel so alone. And then she met Mateo and her life changed. Same went for him. He didn't realize how much he could love someone until Andy came into his life.

This last book definitely goes to some dark places, so be ready. My heartrate definitely elevated during a couple of scenes, and not for fun reasons. This really was the perfect ending for these two and the amazing lead up to Raoul's books. I can't wait to read them next!

Mateo finally saves Andy

Mark Whitlock is still after Andy, to keep his promise to seek revenge on her. He blamed her for the raid on his sex club.
Mateo and Raoul and his men get there just before Mark sexually abuses Andy.
Andy wants to kill him herself, but she gets abducted by Mark's goons and brought to his home in the Hamptons. He drugs her, and when she wakes up, he has it planned to have four of his men rape her, abuse and murder her.
But they get to her in time and save her. Mark escaped.
They get away, and she is brought to the hospital because of the beating Mark inflicted on her. Cracked ribs, concussion, and bruised face. Mateo sat by her side for the two weeks she was in the hospital.
He had to give her time to heal. He wanted her to know that he loved her. She would always be his one and only.
Mateo gers Intel that Mark Whitlock is possibly getting his face done so he can escape from the country.
When they get there, the surgeon is mutilating Mark because he killed the doctors daughter. He was overcome with grief and killed him.
Mateo and Raoul just walked away after they saw the doctor slash his throat.
Mateo made a promise to keep Andy safe and loved.
Great story by Mya Grey. Strong characters and lots of suspense.

I didn't want this story to end. Mateo and Andy were one of the best couples I've read over the past few years. Rooting for them was a must throughout all five books. I yelled multiple times when Andy ran from him. Why would she do that? Mateo was only there to protect her. He may have had other motives at first, but he was there for her. He even threatened his job to make sure she was safe.

So many things happened in this book that tear you to pieces. Andy is tortured by her ex Mark Whitlock. That guy was pure evil. From the moment he entered Any's life back in High School, he has made it hit lot in life to tear her and her family down.

The ending is so fulfilling and a HEA that was needed after the brutal assaults each character went through. Mya Grey created another universe of characters that are flawed, but their hearts are pure.

What an explosive conclusion! Andy, Mateo, and the crew are doing EVERYTHING in their power to rid the world of the horrible Mark Whitlock, but Andy is putting herself in the greatest danger of all. Yes she's made provisions and what some would consider contingency plans, but Whitlock has made it evident that he's not to be underestimated. That chemistry that keeps Andy and Mateo tied together is greater than ever. These two are pure combustion, I'm talking steam heat and over the course of 5 books that flame has only gotten hotter! The Mateo button...😳 That'll get things flowing for sure.🙈 The Brutal Kings are definitely one series you don't want to miss and with Raoul up next, the shenanigans he's sure to be responsible for and the way Glitter ended - I cannot wait! If you haven't read this series, they're quick reads and so delicious and suspensefully steamy!

This is the final book of the series. Mateo and Andy still trying to finally destroy Mark. Mark abducted Andy and he is going to punish her the worst way possible. However, this time Andy had something that will help to collect evidence about the truth and the crimes committed by Mark. The price: maybe her life but she wants Mateo safe and have Mark pays for the murder of her brother. This time Mateo has to work with Reeds and Raoul to try to take Mark down before he could kill Andy.
The good thing about the book is that Mateo saves Andy, they ended together, and Mark will pay, the worst and unimaginable way all his crimes.
I love the story, the characters and the plot. Highly recommended. Love it!
Btw, be prepare, the is an unexpected twist at the end that will be the beginning of a new story.

Andy and Mateo 's Story!

I hated to see this storyline end but it must,Mateo and Andy finally get together and really fall in love, I mean Andy finally feels the love that Mateo has for her and they are starting a family too along with Dario and Nikki. They finally think everything at peace and quiet since Mark met a violent death but no next comes Rauel's story.You can't say those three brothers live a boring life because they don't .I haven't read the third storyline yet but Mateo and Andy's story is my favorite maybe because he seem to care for her right off and he was willing to fight for her time after time and never give up his love of Andy!But you have to read Dario and Nikki 's story to get the feelings of Mateo's love of Andy which he tries to deny! Great books Mya Grey,will read more books by you when I can.Worth more than five stars too!

A brilliant ending to Andy and Matteos story, justice has finally been served and Mark got what he deserved. I am always amazed by Myas ability to be able to write gore scenes so detailed and in the same breath describe A and M so insanely hot and lovable. Evil truly is evil and spice is certainly spicy. Such a clever and imaginative writer. I thought Dario was the man for me but Matteo has slightly overtaken him, wow that man is fire 🔥. Whitlocks ending wasn’t what I was expecting but it couldn’t have happened to a worse man, truly vile . I became fond of Raul tbh so I look forward to his story, what did he do to deserve being taken? Interesting!!it’s going to take a really strong and special woman to tame him for sure and I can’t wait. I love being in this arc team.

The final book for Mateo and Andrea (Andy). After reuniting with Mateo, she sneaks out (yet again) to finish the mission of avenging her brother’s death. But his killer knows what she is up to and the tables are turned. Hopefully Mateo can get to her in time! I really loved this final story for these two love birds. Most books come to an abrupt ending (which I do not like!) after the antagonist is defeated but, in this book, that was only part way through it. The story continued for Mateo and Andy and we got to see how their relationship healed in the aftermath.

This series was a spin off from Dario and Nikki’s love story and, I have to say, it was even better!

I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.

enjoyed this …

This was a very good series. Loved Andy and Mateo’s story. I love how by blood they are half brothers, but in their hearts they are whole brothers. This was just excellent!! Andy really gives Mateo a run for his. She is committed to getting justice for her brother no matter the cost. She loves him so much. She didn’t believe she had room in her heart to love her brother so purely that she is compelled to exact revenge for his murder and ensure that the man who loves her doesn’t die on account for her. She was willing to die to exact revenge and the Mateo was prepared to run through hell’s fire to save her. This was a great series!!!

Amazing Series! Mystery, suspense, action, love and steamy scenes... Mateo and Andy's story was exciting from beginning to the end. This book was a great ending to this series. Mya Grey is a master storyteller as she hooks you in from page one. You instantly get sucked in and the book fast becomes a page turner. I loved the ending... Including Mark Whitlock's fate. I can't wait to read Raoul's story!

This final book in Andy and Mateo’s journey is packed full of everything. You want action well you got it you want suspense you got it and talk about steam well this book is smoldering hot. This series has been one that I couldn’t put down. I was excited for it and Mya didn’t disappoint. No spoilers in this review just know that it won’t disappoint.

This is the final book of Mateo and Andi and I don’t want their story to end! Mark has gotten what he deserves and Andi now needs time to heal and move forward. Mateo will be there for her and they can finally have a life together without all the interference being thrown at them! I was there was an epilogue after the end as we would get a glimpse into their future! I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

I absolutely loved this awesome finale installment to this series. Andy has no fear in what she believes is necessary to stop Mark. Mateo will do all in his power to protect Andy and keep her safe. Wow, the ending will blow you away, you won’t see it coming, I sure didn’t. These characters will cling to you and not release you from their lives.

I loved Andy in the previous books and I loved this book. She wanted Mateo but not for a relationship. Fate had another idea. Their fake engagement comes complete with org@sms like she’s never had. There is also secrets Andy has kept since her teens and the monster is back and has bought her for millions of dollars from her father. This book has nasty parents, a monster with money and prestige, love, lots of steam and love. It’s a wild ride so buckle up and hang on.

Excellent series. Short books but what a punch each one had. I was mad that Andy refused to let Mateo do his job and that she almost got killed. Andy is a strong and an independent woman which I believe is why she tried to kill Mark on her own. Love the way Mark died. Happy ending for Nikki and Andy. Now what did Raoul do that got him kidnapped? I am looking forward th read the next I stallment.

Mya. This series was amazing. Mateo and Andy are such a power couple. Andy is one strong woman and I envy her. Mateo is such a tough man, but a teddy bear when he needs to be. I’m happy Andy finally let herself stop overthinking and just let herself live freely.
I did not see that ending coming at all. I can’t wait to continue reading this series.

I am not ready for Mateo and Andy’s story to end. Mark getting what he deserves is amazing and Andy being able to heal from the whole ordeal. At the very end of the next part of the series we need a bonus epilogue to close both couples story. Looking forward to reading about Raoul next. Keep up the great work Mya Grey.

This is the last book in Mateo & Andy's story, and it does not disappoint. There are a bunch of twists and turns, drama and some needed just desserts for Mark. It was a wonder that Andy was able to recover from her trauma. This was a good mafia romance. Looking forward to reading more from Mya Grey.

Dr. Andrea (Andy) Carter doesn’t want Mateo Ricci hurt by Mark Whitlock. So, Andy is going to offer herself to Mark and hopefully get him to confess to killing her brother Kyle.

Mateo is using all his resources to keep tabs on Mark Whitlock because he knows Andy wants her revenge and Mark wants Andy.

Will Andy get her revenge against Mark? Can Mateo save Andy even if it is from herself?

Mateo and Andy are back together, but Andy isn't quite finished in seeking revenge for her brother and ridding the world of Mark Whitlock. Mateo is both furious and frightened that Andy is in over her head and he can't lose her again. This is a powerful story of betrayal, revenge and a never-failing, ultimate love.

At last

Mark is no longer, and it couldn't happen to a nicer guy. NOT!! Andy should have listened to Mateo, not sure how her parents feel about the baby, they are kinda assholes. What is up with Roaul I guess we wait and see. Can't wait! This series is awesome and you can't put it down.

She's run from him again. He doesn't know how he can keep her safe if she keeps running, only he doesn't know about the promise she's made to herself. Will she ever get her revenge on the man that killed her brother & stole her innocence? Will Mateo ever be able to keep her safe & get her to see that he really loves her? Read & find out!!

Glitter is book five in the second part of the series Brutal Kings by author Mya Grey. So this one is intense all the way to the end. There’s a surprise (a good one), a resolution and a kidnapping. That’s all I’ll say - don’t want to give too much away for the next part of the series.
What I will say is even monsters fear something.
Enjoy!!

I was going to give this a three Star because I loved Dr Andy but I swear she got more dumb every book and this book was no exception. Thankfully, Mya Grey managed to pull it all around and it was satisfactory. I may come back to these books but I am definitely going to take a break from them for now.
