SUPREME

by Aries Skye

“Governed by the Code” are the words Supreme has had to live by his entire life. As the oldest of the Love Brothers, it’s been his duty to lead the family legacy with his younger brothers as the second generation henchmen for the Knight family syndicate. Now older and with the life and love of his childhood sweetheart Reign to protect, he dreams of a legitimate life away from the criminal ties, but he feels trapped between his duties to the Knights and his loyalty to his family. When tragedy strikes, the old Supreme is reignited, leaving behind a messy blood trail as he races to find the culprit before tragedy strikes close to home again.

Im not sure how to feel about this book. I could've done without Aviva. I dont like that situation AT. ALL. It was unnecessary. I went in thinking he was gonna be on some John Wick but he folded so quick...I guess it really wasn't "and after" I kinda guessed the twists but it was still good to see that I was right and how ruthless the people involved really are

For a novella that barely breaks 120 pages, Supreme delivers the kind of emotional punch you usually only get from a full-length novel. Aries Skye wastes no time pulling readers into Supreme’s grief, and it’s heavy — losing his wife and unborn child after already enduring two miscarriages is the kind of heartbreak that leaves a mark on both the character and the reader. I genuinely thought he and Reign were heading toward their long overdue happy ending, and having that future ripped away added a rawness that anchors the entire book.

Once the action hits, though, it hits hard and doesn’t let up. The brotherhood between Supreme, Savior, and Saint shines through every chapter — that mix of loyalty, banter, and “ride until the wheels fall off” energy is one of the strongest parts of the story. But Samson? A different kind of villain entirely. His greed, the manipulation, the way he crosses lines family should never cross… it’s chilling, and it sets up a ripple effect that’s going to follow the series for a long time.

And then there’s Aviva. Supreme deserves to find happiness again — he’s earned peace more than anyone — but the fact that she was close to Reign leaves a layer of emotional complication the book doesn’t shy away from. It adds tension in a way that feels real, messy, and human. By the time the final page hits, you’re left with both closure and anticipation, because diving into Savior feels less like the “next book” and more like the next chapter in the fallout of everything Supreme endured.

This is fourth book for the entire year where the grief of the MCs gutted me. This was a rough one and even more so when the real mastermind for all the pain Supreme experiences, is exactly who I expected it to be from the start. But that level of wickedness? To manipulate Supreme in this way, over nothing other than pure greed? Yeah, the author better be giving him the karma he deserves by the end of this series.

I absolutely get the introduction of a second chance at love too. Because Supreme's a good man, aside from his skillset. He deserves to find happiness again.

The oldest of three brothers. He tries to separate himself from the family business for the love of his life. After two pregnancies Supreme and wife finally get pregnant and life expectations are snatched away in the blink of an eye. My heart broke for Supreme.

Come on Aries!! I was not fully prepared for Supremes story. It’s book one of the Love Brothers and boy ole boy what a beginning. Black Love is personify, family alliance is justified and tragedy no matter how traumatic is realized.

I enjoyed every moment of this book. Gripping my pearls, laughing out loud and even shedding some tears.
