Some girls don’t like pretty things.Some girls like things that are destructive, and toxic. Things that fuel our bodies with adrenaline and bring our demons to their knees. They say magic isn’t real, but it’s it the closest way to describe love? It doesn’t exist physically. It merely exists around us, within us, possessing our souls and making us do stupid shit. Shit like falling in love with a … in love with a boy who knows how to rip my world apart and raise hell with a simple flick of his wrist. Their secrets are now mine. I’m not just in the middle of this game, I’m helping orchestrate it. Can the cries of my aching soul be enough to drown out the burning embers of my mistakes?
The mind strengthens the heart, roughing the edges to prepare it for war. This is a war I will not win.
This is a war of fate.

Well, my goodness!! What a read this is!! My head is still spinning from all the twists and turns the tightly woven plot of this book takes you on. It is a thorough mind bender; lusty, clever, unpredictable, tragic, with a love story running through it’s heart. Nate and Tillie along with the rest of the Kings, are small hurricanes whipping along at a frantic, exciting pace, strewing banter, affection, and their own brand of organised chaos along the way.
With more characters’ stories to be told, I am able to salute Nate and Tillie and sit back waiting for more…. not that I’m greedy or anything..
I absolutely LOVED this book.
We get a better understanding of Nate’s feelings about what happened to Micaela and his relationship with Tillie. Which, for me, was needed. But what I LOVE the most is we get to see Tillie heal. We get to see her low and watch fiercely come to the top.
There were some heart wrenching scenes where Amo was able to make me feel every damn emotion as if I were the one living it. I don’t really get emotional when it comes to books but with Malum Part 1 & 2, she made me feel. I love her for that!
When I started this book; honestly I thought I was prepared for all things Nate, Tillie & Elite Kings but prepared I was not! This was such an emotional journey through mindfucksville’….. Amo Jones once again had me questioning everything, swooning and throwing my kindle…& now..well now I’m left with one of the absolute worst book hangovers (so worth it )
Malum Part Two takes us full circle on this gritty, heart pounding roller coaster ride…Tillie is my new favorite; her fierceness, loyalty, her unique understanding of her place in the EK world and her bond with these boys had me rooting for her, crying with her && yelling Alright! Tillie Stuprum…go on with your badass self! As she rises to her thrown…. && Nate GAH! he had me in a constant in between of wanting to junk punch him and swooning all over the place. So. Much. Angst.
This was another read from Amo Jones….jam packed full of all the twists & turns, secrets & lies, darkness & light…The Elite Kings Series continues to surpass all my expectations and has quickly become one of my absolute favorite book worlds to visit. I honestly cannot wait to see where we go next.
***ARC provided in exchange for an honest review- Megan/Scandalous Book Blog***
Malum part 2 is the 5th instalment of the Elite Kings Club.
In order to read and understand this book you will need to have at least read part 1.. This is NOT a standalone.
It also contains triggers for some..
Let me start of by saying the Queen of darkness has done it again, she keeps us on our toes throughout the whole book. You thinks you’ve finally worked things out, then BOOM.. Another tantalising twist is thrown our way…
Now we all know I’ve always had a thing for Brantley and let me just say, I now love his character more..
Now back to Nate and Tillie.. These two are a force to be reckoned with… They will both have you captivated, while we watch their journey unravel. Again those twists.. my goodness. I pulled an all nighter because I just couldn’t put this book down.. it was well worth having to go to work in zombie mode for.. Be prepared for the mixed emotions that you will go through while reading. Seriously, one minute you’re pissed, then you’re laughing, then you’ll be wanting to throw your kindle, so just brace yourself… honest to god this is one of my favourites.. All you Nate lovers enjoy
Emotional, stunning, mind blowing conclusion to an epic story. Lana~ White Hot Reads
Nate and Tillie are both broken beyond repair but together they mend and glue each other back together. It took a lot of souls searching and a lot of stuff to get through it, but in the end they won. Tillie is so strong and smart and Nate is just lethal. These two together are fire and ice. Just when you think you have it figured out, it changes and your like what did I just read. Questions are answered and you get more insight into the King’s world which helps out a lot. This King generation is solid and I can’t wait to read more about them.
I wish I could add more stars to the rating of this book and series. Just when I think I loved the last one Amo Jones blows me away again. I still have to say Bishop is my fave of the Kings, but Nate is almost tied with him.
I have been excitedly awaiting this one because of the ending of Part 1 and belive me you will not be disappointed. Just when you think you have it all Amo throws in her as usual Mind Fuck and you are thrown into left field. Sometimes I think I know where she is going in the story but as always and proven wrong.
Nate and Tillie are total opposites but challenge each other that makes them a perfect fit. They are like fire and ice, water and oil but always seem to find their way back into each others arms.
One of my fave quotes of the book:
“You stay sane for yourself, because you can’t five people that kind of power. You have to make it-for you.”
I can’t express how much I have loved Amo’s books since I was introduced to her 2 years ago. Each of her books just keep getting better and better that I get so excited when I hear she is writing a new book or starting a new series. On a last note you are in for a ride with the Elite Kings and buckle up as the road may be hard but you will love each of these guys in your own way.
I am so loving this series! Tillie has alot to figure out in this book, secrets and lies all come to light, and bring more questions. Nate and the rest of the king’s have captured my heart, and I can’t wait to read more on them. These brutal men who are feared by everyone, also have this gentle side. Just when u thought there couldn’t be anymore secrets and lies, well u defs thought wrong. This book is a must read 5+ stars.
Oh my lord, I cant find the right words to review this book, but it was everything you could ever want. It had the twists and answers that left you questioning in Part 1.
We see the obstacles that Nate and Tillie had to overcome in order to finally get there HEA!
I will say this much, reading Elite Kings series, its best to go with an open mind, because you for sure will be getting mindf*ck for sure.
At the end, Nate finally gets his queen!
Amo Jones, you literally messed with my mind with this one but glad Nate got his HEA! He needed it! And once again your my number 1 queen of dark,angst literally lol..
ALL HAIL THE MOTHERF*CKING QUEEN! The Queen of dark romance Amo Jones once again delivers an intensely gripping 5 STAR MASTERPIECE with Malum: Part 2 that will keep you riveted to every page and guessing until the very end! As a reader I need books that can be an escape from all of life’s stressors and that is exactly what Amo gives me EVERY SINGLE TIME! Malum: Part 2 was no different! I was completely immersed in her writing, her characters and the jaw dropping world of The Elite Kings and I never wanted to come up for air!
At the end of Malum: Part 1 readers were left with a massive book hangover and so many questions that begged to be answered. Well in true Amo fashion she pulled the rug right out from under me and left me completely and utterly speechless! All of my theories went to sh*t and my mind was blown in all the ways she does so well! In this book we see Nate & Tillie struggling to come to terms with a loss that has destroyed them. They long to be together but the secrets and lies that are synonymous with the Kings and their world only drive them further apart.
Although Tillie loves Nate with her whole heart the trust has been broken so her guard is up and we see Tillie evolve into an even stronger more fierce and downright savage character.
“If you cower in the presence of a King, he’ll have you kissing his feet for life.”
And Nate? Well we already know how volatile Nate is but in this book we also get to see a softer side to him. His love for Tillie no matter how much he denies it is unwavering and all consuming.
“when she’s angry, there’s something inside of me that recognizes her fire and wants to build an inferno with her.”
As individuals we see them grappling with loss and pushing each other away. As a couple we see them fight to find their way back to each other in the midst of their grief and the conflict going on around them.
“Love is just an anchor. It can either be the reason you drown or the reason you float.”
One thing that never wavers is the chemistry between them. Whether fighting or f*cking it is off the charts scorching hot. The banter between them is some of the best I have ever read and one of the many things I love about Amo’s writing!
As with all Amo Jones books there are many different plots throughout this story that will catch you up on previous characters and introduce you to new ones all woven seamlessly into the main storyline with flawless writing and mind boggling imagination.
I absolutely love the bond between all of these characters and how despite their issues they truly are a family. Most especially the friendship that has developed between Tillie and Brantley is nothing short of magical. I never thought I’d love a friendship more than my beloved Millie and Miles but I was blown away by the bond these two formed!
“Breathe, my little terror, you’re okay. You’re f*cking safe when we’re around…”
I fell truly madly deeply in love with Brantley Vitiosis after seeing his capacity for love in this book and I can’t wait to see where his story leads!
This story completely devastated me in all the ways that only the greatest authors can accomplish!
Nate & Tillie’s story is so raw, so real, so tragic yet beautiful that you can’t help but fall in love with every facet! In the end Tillie proved to the Kings and everyone around her but most importantly to herself that she is worthy of the title of Queen. And Amo Jones cemented herself yet again as the Queen of dark romance!
5 Wickedly decadent STARS!

4.5 stars
What can you say about a perfect end to a love story that goes through more than one can imagine?
Nothing, I cannot say anything to make justice to this story.
“I am completely, utterly, and irrevocably in love with him.” And so was I from the first book when I met Nate.
“but his heart and his soul? Completely unattainable.”Or is it? You gonna have to read it to find out.
There are so many things happening in this story that will blow your mind and keep you on the edge from the beginning to the last page where there’s a big turn.
“I’ve found myself in this pool of feelings for him, I’m afraid I might drown in them.” And so did I for this book and story.
OH WOW
OMG!!! What can I say. This book is….. I’m not sure I have the words to do this book justice but I try my best spoiler free.
This is the conclusion Malum part 1 and all I can say is you DO NOT want to miss it, you will not be disappointed. It is told from Duel POV’S, It is a crazy roller coaster ride of a book it will have you turning the pages so fast to know how it will end. Once I started it I couldn’t put it down. questions are answered that i had from part one secrets are revealed I have to say this series just gets better and better I can’t wait for the next book in this EPIC series. If you haven’t started this series yet then what are you waiting for you’ll love it. Full of twists and turns this book is sure to mess with your emotions and your head.
I have said it before, and I’ll say it again….Amo Jones is pure evil genius when it comes to her writing. Everyone says “What the F did I just read?” after her books, and I know what I read…Amo Fucking Jones, that’s what. She’s brilliant and bold and pushes the imagination and reality into an entirely new realm. It’s her own magical and fierce world…not the Kings’ world, and I will gladly step into it EVERY SINGLE TIME.
Very few books and series mesmerize me to the extent to where I’m completely drawn in – and I mean completely. My own personal world stops and this all-consuming book world starts. The Elite King’s world and this series own me – I don’t eat, drink, sleep or even think about what’s going on around me when I read the King’s, and Malum Part 2 was no different.
I fell hard for Nate Riverside Malum what seems like forever go while reading The Silver Swan. He was magnetic with his charming and flirtatious personality, compassion for Madison, care-free attitude and bad boy persona. I LOVED HIM. Since then, my love for him has ebbed and flowed but never faltered. He does in fact have two sides to him – but each side is oh so real and raw; and what I thought broke him in Malum Part 1 only made him stronger and more powerful in this world. His actions ALWAYS have a purpose, and that includes anything and everything to do with Tillie. He can be evil and malicious, and definitely broken at times, but who he was at the core never wavered. His passion for Tillie and loyalty to the Kings and Madison always remained, no matter how he fought it all at times. The way his character developed throughout this book was truly jaw-dropping, and I shed tears when he showed his vulnerabilities, and when he finally allowed his facade to falter and stop running from what was always his fate.
Tillie Stuprum is a force to be reckoned with in this book! She is a QUEEN and I need her as my BFF right the fuck now! I love her apathatic attitude to her status in this world. She doesn’t want it and is not afraid to tell anyone “no” – and I mean anyone. Bad Daddy Hector and bad boy Nate included. At the same time, she will fight for what’s rightly hers and wants vengeance against those who wronged her so badly. She’s not afraid to dance with the devil himself and will walk away from him with hips swinging and a smirk on her face. What I love the most about Tillie in this book is that she wears every emotion on her sleeve from beginning to end. She is not afraid to show her vulnerabilities and broken heart to these Kings, as she knows deep down they have her back, even if she doubted them at times. Her ever-evolving relationship with Brantley was swoon-worthy as it grew from sexual attraction to much deeper as he becomes someone who she consistently relies on and confides in. As she bares her soul to these powerful Kings and their world, she does it with her head held high, confident in every move she makes while refusing to let the darkness consume her.
Nate & Tillie’s story was more than a roller-coaster of emotions…it’s a tsunami, but it is a ride that I could take every day. Each time you think they are “fine” something crashes down around them or a new truth is exposed, and twists and turns are at every corner. They both had to break before they could mend together, and A Jones did a fucking fantastic job of writing this story that is addictive, all-consuming and will pull every emotion out of you! I both cried and cheered for these characters and left my heart on every page, and I’ll do it again and again for them. Can’t wait for the next book in this series. Well done once again A Jones!!!
When would somebody ever told me that I will lost my brain after end the book, I’d laugh at him.
In this world, this type of book deoesn’t exist.
No kidding.
But one day I found Amo Jones… and my worldview changed. Diametrically.
Malum: Evil part 2 is a continuation of story between Nate and Tillie. Amo is throwing us into a vortex of plot and we don’t have time to rest. Since the beginning, until the end we are in tension. Page by page we don’t have time to think, to do something different, because we can’t put down this book until the last page.
I cried a lot on Malum part 2. I cried for Tillie, for Nate and for Mikaela. These three don’t have simple life. These three don’t have happy ending. These three have only lies. Lies on lies, which are bigger and bigger. The truth is very far away from them and they need to sacrifice everything to be able to learn about it.
Nate has two faces. He is like sexy playboy with pride and he is the devil inside. He need to be loyal to The Kings, but he really love Tillie too. He don’t know what to do with all these things. I really like him. I mean, like not love, but if I had opportunity to be his best friend, I will agree in one second.
Tillie is my favourite heroine by Amo Jones. She is strong and weak at the same time. She know how to eat revenge on her enemies and she is a savage. I really like her. Her fight for the truth is amazing. The decisions which she has taken are reponsible and thoughtful. She know that she is a real queen of everything. And she is using it.
This story is hard.
This story is a full of scars.
But.
This story is everything.
This story makes me sad, happy, angry, hopefull and I can write here all emotions, which we can find in vocabulary.
Amo Jones makes my brain in sweet mess and I like it.
This review is chaotic. I know it, but when You will read Malum:Evil Part 2, you will see that this book cannot be described.
It doesn’t matter if You read this story now, or a year from now.
You won’t always be able to grasp what you’ve just read.
And this is fucking beautiful.

Malum part 2 by Amo Jones
Oh, dear Lawd, what a roller coaster ride Malum Part 2 has been. Just when Jones gives us closure with Tillie and Nate, she leaves us on the top of the coaster dangling and waiting for the next big drop to happen. Jones is a top-notch author and I give massive kudos to her and her writing style. Emotional and violent all the things that make up the Elite Kings, Malum Part 2 is everything that I hoped it would be. The Kings are still ruling with their secrets and the girls are learning that the secrets can help just as much as they can hurt. Malum part 2 by Amo Jones is book five of the Elite King’s Club series and worth so many more stars than just the five that I can rate it.
With Tillie and Nate still reeling from the death of their daughter the emotions run high as the Kings all stand together to get justice for the lost silver swan. Nate’s hate for Tillie is over the top and Tillie is pulled in so many different directions not knowing who and what to trust. Brantley seems to be Tillie’s one true rock, but he is still just as loyal to the Kings as ever, so how much can she really depend on him? With Madison MIA and Bishop going off the rails, Tillie must try and keep her life and emotions together to get to the bottom of her daughter’s death wile dealing with the evil that surrounds the Kings.
Dear Readers,
There is something extremely captivating with the way Amo writes her books. Conveys her dark thoughts. You know, it takes a lot to write dark romance and master it with equal grace and perfection. Where is that Grammy, Emmy, Oscar awards when you need them personally? Malum Part 2 is a scorching and engaging novella that keeps you glued to it from Page 1. There’s a solid reason why AMO FUCKING JONES is the queen of Mayhem. The utterly perfect dark romance writer. If you think you’re all sorted out with your own theories after reading Part 1, please think again. She pulls out the most vicious tricks right from her sleeves and leaves you gobsmacked! Bam! And, RIP dear heart, soul and body. How do you describe a book that left you with a myriad of emotions flowing through your mind at once? It makes me question my sanity. Through out the novel, I had been battling myself between jumping, screaming, yelling, sobbing, laughing and raging high, all thanks to yours truly! “Oh My God”, “WTF”, “Damn”, etc. are some of common phrases you’ll need to bear in mind.
‘ . , , . ‘ , . , , .
Nate and Tillie, two of the biggest motherfuckers in history of Elite Kings left me gasping for more, bleeding my heart and coloring it crimson. Malum 2 gives more and more. But it takes the most. I was so stupefied and delirious with how the story kept jumping to and fro. Each page was stacked with secrets and emotions. Some dangerous secrets and few tattering emotions here & there. When I thought about how it’d progress at one time, it would baffle me right with the next punch. And what powerful punches she threw at me, God! If you *liked Nate*, you’ll *love* him here. He’s like a lost tiger who knows ABCD’s of everything but love. He can lie, kill, cheat and even fight, but love? It’s a massive foreign concept for him. But don’t worry. The King shall bow to her Queen only and that has been guaranteed by AMO JONES. I personally found myself rooting for the banter between Brantley and Tillie. His *little miss terror* was nocturnal. Exquisite. She was demanding and quirky. A fucking queen in her own way and she earned her rightful place at the throne. That is, Nate’s lap! With his arms rightfully secured against her. It dealt with side characters, now, throwing equal light on how everyone is coping with the aftermath. Yes, you might hate Madison and yes, you’ll love Bishop even more. Yes, you’ll want to smack Nate across his ass and yes, you’ll want to hug him tight and whisper sweet nothings into his ears. This is AMO JONES’ charm. Ability. She made me powerless over this book. No matter what I write, it won’t do justice to MALUM #2. Read it to feel it.
Without a shadow of doubt, MALUM #2 has to be one of my Best Reads of 2019. It stayed with me even after I finished devouring it like a hungry wolf. It was emotionally charged with a roller coaster of fucking torture. But never once did I want to put it down for a break. It didn’t let me move from my place. And that’s what AMO JONES’ writing does. She demands your fucking attention every time!
ᴇᴄʀᴇᴛ ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴛʜɪ ɪ ᴡʜʏ ᴘᴇᴏᴘʟᴇ ᴅɪᴇ. ᴡʜʏ ᴛʜᴇʏ ʀᴜɴ ᴀᴡᴀʏ ᴀɴᴅ ᴡʜʏ ʟᴏᴠᴇ ɪ ʙᴜʀɪᴇᴅ.
Dear Amo Jones,
Did you really wonder I’d leave you alone when the mastermind was all you behind this epic story? Think again, sweetie. When I read Malum 1, I knew you’d be it for me. You touch those dark, depraved and delicious fantasies of mine that nobody has reached yet. You make me feel raw, emotionally. You know when someone says it’s wrong, certain times? Well, you make it feel alright to crave such things in life. There are times when we feel like we’re not enough or our writing isn’t perfect (in writers’ case) but you might want to hop over your fan club and see how much love we have for you. Your flawless writing. Which is deliciously intricate. You make us want. You make us need. You make us feel. And that’s no joke, girl! Know this and forever, you’re the motherfucking queen of dark romance and you better live up to that title! Let nothing rattle you throughout. You are and will be the best dark romance author. And that, my friend, is a FACT! Now, give me Book 6, pretty please?
SPECIAL MENTIONS:
Sarah, I freaking love you girl. It’s been only few days since we started talking but I rightfully claim you as my friend. You heard me vent, curse, wallow and still kept a happy face.
Thank you for providing the review copy. It was truly an honor
I Bow Down To You Amo!! OMG This Book!!! The conclusion to Malum Part 1 is here and believe me when I say you WILL NOT be disappointed!!! What a wild and crazy, twisted, sexy ride this book takes you on. It starts right where Malum 1 left off and with a huge bang! “….if you hurt someone enough, they acclimatize to pain, but just like a wound, if you don’t seal it, you’ll bleed out…” I’m speechless how brilliant this story is! Tillie is the epitome of a Strong Woman and Nate…Well Nate is Every feeling you can possibly have! “..Because knowing you’re okay is worth the pain that having you in my arms causes…” total Swoon! Will we finally have all their secrets revealed? Will Madison and Bishop findna way back to each other? What will happen to the King’s and their Queens? You just have to read this masterpiece and find out for yourselves. Told in Dual POV.
