I count down the days until a new book is released. Rachel Van Dyken is the Queen of mafia romance, the Eagle Elite series sucked me in from the first book and I binged everyone after that. Chase’s story is my favorite and watching him finally get the Happily ever after only to see Ash go through the same thing was heart breaking. I love these books and can’t wait for the next one. I always get so excited to start one and immediately regret reading too fast when it’s over. This is the ONLY series I ever go back and reread.

Wow, what can I say, I loved this book. My heart was breaking for Ash and Annie. I thought I would never like Annie for Ash, but I was so wrong. These two are so broken, their story had me in tears several times. Even though this is a stand alone, I loved seeing the returning characters from the Eagle Elite series. It was hard to put this book down to go to sleep. This was definitely a page turner and full of surprises. The mafia series is my favorite series of Rachel Van Dyken and I love all of her books but this is my all time favorite. I can’t wait for the next book.

Rachel Van Dyken is one of my go-to authors. I've never had to check reviews for her books before buying because I know I will love whatever she writes. And this book is no different. I am running on three hours of sleep because I couldn't put this book down but #noregrets. My heart ached so much throughout reading this book and omg the number of times that my heart broke, got put back together, only for it to break again!!! But the end was worth it. No one deservers happiness more than Ash and Annie. I love that we get to see a bit of everyone, especially Serena and Junior (my faves hehe). I love the emotions Rachel's writing invoke, all the plot twists, the smooth writing, the perfect mix of humor, grief, anger, action, mystery, love -- there was no point in this book where I felt like it was dragging or where I was just flipping through the pages absentmindedly; I was hooked on every single word and didn't stop until I reached the end and was left wanting more. The EE world will always, always be near and dear to my heart.

There is nothing like getting lost in Rachel’s mafia world it is truly riveting!! If I could give Destructive King more than 5 stars I would. It was heart wrenching and heart warming all in one! Ash and Annie both grieving the loss of the loved one and friend Claire, even though dealing with her own grief Annie tries to help Ash. I absolutely love Ash and Annie and seeing the rest of the Mafia Family I have come to love. I loved Ash nickname for his dad chase :) There was so much tension throughout, but yet the next minute I was literally laughing out loud. It was truly gripping I could not put it down. It has been a while a book has captured me so hard and left me feeling SO much! And Oh my gosh this had an ending I never saw coming. You definitely want to read Destructive King! You won’t be sorry you did! But be warned you will be left with a major book hangover! Blood In, No Out!
