This book is full of your typical teenage to adult hood drama of a young woman. Who experiences heartache, loss, and hardship, as well as happiness. Mia is a strong willed very kind and loyal person. She is always there for her best friends even when things are going crappy for her own life.
There is adventure, romance, drama, and action mafia based in this story.
I would definitely recommend this. It had me reading non stop and wanting more as I read.
I will warn if you read this book your going to want to have the second book on standby. There is a major clifhanger and boy am I glad I had the second book so I could continue on to find out what happened.
Enjoy and happy reading.
Hudson and Mia have a memorable one night stand that leave them wanting more. She had no plans of seeing him again but fate has it in their cards when she meets him again for when she meets her new step dad, Hudson is now her step brother. Things are heating up and I can’t wait to see what is in store with the next book!
Oh wow this book is good and intense. It does end on a cliffhanger and you will want to immediately start reading the next one! I really like Mia and Hudson! They may be new step siblings but that doesn’t stop the intense chemistry between these two and the instant possessiveness that Hudson has for Mia. Hudson is also a crime boss so there is lots of intensity around his work. I already can’t wait to find out what happens next!

This is the first book in the series and it is a great start. Mia and Hudson have a one night stand after meeting in a bar. Mia keeps thinking about Hudson so imagine her surprise when they meet two years later. Their parents have now married and they are step siblings. Hudson is now the Kingpin after his father retires. Hudson and Mia are great together and this book kept me engaged. I will be reading the other books soon. This is a great story and it flows nicely. This book has a little bit of the taboo of step siblings and it is a dark mafia story, and so worth reading.

#SASBOOKREVIEWS
Loved the book it was great, the story was written well and the characters were interesting. Mia meets a sexy gorgeous man it was her first time, it was an unforgettable time and stayed in her heart for two years. Mia visits her mum to meet the new stepfather and his son, now she has a name Hudson. Hudson has taken over her fathers business his attention is divided with putting out fires everywhere, he has not told Mia what he does for work, but he needs to tell her, she has a target on her back which Hudson feared. Wow just as you thought you are getting to the crucial part it was a cliffhanger.

I loved this story even though it does end in a cliffhanger. I know, I hate cliffhangers too, but with all the books out you don’t have to wait for the next book. It was entertaining and enjoyable with plenty of feels. The characters were easy to relate to and interesting. Most of the characters were likable, I’m on the fence with Tina (Mia’s mom) and Barney, maybe the next book will help me decide. Mia and Hudson were definitely steamy together but also so sweet that it made you want someone like Hudson for yourself. Hudson was protective, possessive, and a tad controlling but he was also willing to compromise if it made Mia happy. Mia and Hudson have missed each other and dreamed about each other for nearly 2 years and their reunion is a bit difficult as they are now step-siblings. Hudson felt like that was nothing since they knew each other long before their parents met and married but Mia was a little weirded out by it at first. Hudson had ways to help her get over the weirdness. I love the dynamic between them. There are other stories going on around them that you also get peeks into Harrison and Tina, Jagger and Sarah (and Allie), Barney and Lacey (?) as well as the mafia thing that has its own dynamic and story going on. I loved how close Mia and Harrison were. I look forward to reading the next book. I recommend reading this book.

I received an ARC from the author thru Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving my review. Mia had a one night stand with a dominant man that she has never forgotten. Imagine her surprise when she learns he is now her step brother. He is a very powerful and dangerous man. He has not forgotten Mia either and the attraction is still strong. This is the first book in the Kingpin series and continues into the next. We have to wait to learn how Mia and Hudson handle everything. I thought their story was a good one

This is a fantastic book that I highly recommend
Solid 3.5!
I love a good cliffhanger! Lol don’t know what it is about em
but they get me all giddy and excited!
Great book, love reading Brook Summers! Mia & Hudson and like a love potion for each other. A quick one-night-stand turns into a yearning that only they can fill for each other and it’s hot I tell ya!
I can’t quite put my finger on how I feel about Mias mom, Tina, she’s so cunning and selfish! She literally could be the cause of all the problems. If she’s the snake, she’s absolutely bitten everyone!
Cant wait to read book two!
Mia and Hudson have chemistry from page one!!
The way they are pulled towards each other
They meet at his club and have an amazing night together and after she leaves and its a long year before they meet again. But the chance meeting again isnt ideal.
But their love is tested when we are left with a cliffhanger at the end.
Will Hudson be able to get to Mia in time?
@author_brookesummers writes a gripping mafia forbidden romace between two total opposite people that’s shouldn’t be together but are ment to be.
Cant wait to get to the next book.

Exciting and so good that you’ll be holding on to your seat. It has some murdered victims, mafia, cartels some funny banter, some druggies. And so suspenseful, who took the girls from her Oakdale home. I love the way this author tells her story and all the characters and supporting rolls of the best friends and let’s not even mention all the steamy chemistry! Love this story and can’t wait to read the second part! Very recommend!

Loved it, Loved it Loved it. This comes from so many angles that I just hung on and enjoyed the ride, Mia had a one night stand she didn’t know his name but he ruined her for anyone else and now she is being introduced to her new family and Hudon is her step brother. I cant wait for more this is a book to get lost in. I voluntarily reviewed this book.
The Kingpin Series is the first series I have read by this author. I LITERALLY read all three books straight through from beginning to end. I turned the last page at 4AM and it was totally worth it. Each book ends on a cliffhanger in the PERFECT place. I was so invested in the story that I immediately download the next book in the series. I am grateful that the series is finished and that all three books are in KU.
This is a classic mafia series with fantastic surprises along the way.
Talk about a great start to the series, this book was amazing. A page-turner with lots of dark mafia touches. Mia and Hudson’s chemistry was explosive and off the charts. They had one amazing night and then she slipped out before he woke. Neither could get the other off their mind and fate brought them back together two years later. They are now step-siblings. The book is action-packed with secrets, lots of drama, and overflowing with danger. He’s a mafia overlord and she has a mark on her head. Well written with an engaging storyline and interesting characters. Warning, it does end with a cliffhanger. I read an arc and voluntarily chose to write a review. Can’t wait until the next book.
It is a good story. She meets a man she falls for but doesn’t know his name or anything else. Two years later she finds out who he is when her mother marries his father. But he is in the mafia and she doesn’t find out until they come after her. I took one star off for the cliffhanger ending. I abhor them. They ruin the book for me. If you don’t mind though it is a good read.
Hot, and Suspenseful
I think I may have found a new favorite author. Great mix of hot, sexy and definitely suspenseful. Mia has a one night stand with a mysterious stranger. He’s dark and mysterious with a magnetic personality. Mia goes off to college, but still thinks of him. Hudson is now the boss, after he takes the reigns from his father. Hudson finds himself thinking of the raven hair beauty that left his bed. Now he has to meet his new step sister and it just turns out to be Mia, the woman who left him month’s ago. I enjoyed this so much, just a fyi this does end on a cliffhanger but it’s with the read. I’m looking forward to the next book.
So exciting and thrilling to read!
DAMN! This is one very exciting, thrilling and very sexy story! I was on the edge of my seat from beginning to end captivated and highly entertained. I could not put this book down until I was finished and that amazing and very intense ending left me completely shocked!
All of the characters in this story are fantastic. There were times that I wanted to throw my kindle due to how frustrating some of the characters made me. But mostly I fell head over heels for Hudson and Mia. They have amazingly hot chemistry right from the first interaction. It’s explosive and hot! Their story will keep you captivated and breathless!
I need more and can’t wait for the next book. Highly recommend.
A fantastic first book that held me from the first page eager to find out more of Mia and Hudson’s story they are strong characters with lots going on in they’re life. I cant wait to read book two to find out where the story goes for them both with Hudson being the kingpin and Mia the young girl with not a lot of experience of the world can she handle all that Hudson’s world holds. This is an excellent first book in the kingpin series that will leave you wanting more highly recommend to others.
