The Heir (Kingmakers #1) by Sophie Lark - Restarting September 11th 2022

[Danique]

I’d Go Anywhere For Her…

Even to Kingmakers, the most brutal college in the world. Where mafia heirs are trained to control, dominate, infiltrate, and kill.

I followed Anna because she’s my best friend. I’ve always been right by her side.

She needs me to protect her. Especially from Dean Yenin, a Bratva heir with a lethal grudge.

He plans to take everything from me. Starting with Anna...

“The Heir” is the first book in the epic dark mafia Kingmakers Series. It’s a forbidden friends-to-lovers romance filled with mystery, suspense, and kindle-melting bedroom scenes that take place everywhere but the bedroom.

Chapter 4
(view spoiler)[Listening to the audiobook while making art, so I have to get used to it for a bit. I don't actually remember anything about what this book will be about lmao, so can't wait. So we're starting with someone that is not the main character? Already confused lmao. So Leo is following Anna to the Kingmakers Academy, it already sounds great.

I already love Anna, especially Leo's description of her hehe. It doesn't happen often that a book starts with the guy instead of the girl, kinda like that. I already love Dean too, not sure who I'll be rooting for lmao. Also love the voice of the male narrator, especially for Dean damn - the lowness of that voice hot damn :o Don’t really get the divisions within the school yet but we’ll see. It’s weird that Leo and Anna are sort of family but not really? Not rooting for them then😂 lmao I didn’t know it was a school to actually teach mafia instead of just including mafia 😂 Omg Dutch mafia woohooo!! I love the little references hehe that’s my country. Not sure why I'm proud of a mafia family that represents my country lmao but that's besides the point (hide spoiler)]

Ch 11
(view spoiler)[Forgot to write anything lmao. Can’t believe she ran into Dean naked lol, already like the idea of him but I’m not sure with whom she’ll end up. I’m rooting for Leo so far since he has clearly been in love with her since forever and she loves him too. Can’t freaking wait to see where it’ll go, maybe she’ll end up with both? Definitely love Ares too.

Omg Leo is so darn cute. I love their lessons, and I loved how he helped her with the diving situation! She doesn’t seem so badass so far ahahah. Hehehe Dean and Anna have to work together on a school project, love that. Apparently Leo has become captain? Not completely clear yet how that works tbh (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 17
(view spoiler)[Bram sucks omg he wanted Dean to roofie her???? Omg Dean drugged Leo, who is now getting a blowjob from Gemma (or Jenna?) 😭 I can’t believe this dammit Dean 😭 The moment with Dean was really cute though fuck I wanted more of them kissing. I don’t know who I like the most at this point dammit I’m so torn!! It's clear that she'll end up with Leo though, they have too many scenes together already. Poor Leo though, he has no clue that he got drugged. For some reason I feel like Miss Robin (the librarian) is undercover or something lol, she feels like such a random character? Dean is sort of cute but also an ass lol? The flag game was fun. (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 28
(view spoiler)[Loved Leo going naked lmao. I don't like how they both basically describe Anna as a possession, she's a fucking person? I hope she'll put them both in their place. I feel bad for Zoe - I believe one of the next books is about her? Aw I do feel bad for Leo and how badly he's feeling. The scene after the dance with Dean was not okay, she basically didn’t want it and he forced her anyway. So yeah, I’m rooting for Leo now.

Omg Dean threw out Leo’s gift? What a dick. I definitely don’t like him anymore. He wanted her to pretend that he was Leo during sex? Duuude😂😭 Leo and Dean fought, and now Dean is planning on killing him damn. OMG LEO IS A VIRGIN TOO??? Fuck me I love this 😭 (hide spoiler)]

[Danique]

Finished
(view spoiler)[Lmao I hope my neighbors can’t hear this I’m screaming 😂😂😂😂 Their first time was cute though, I just can’t handle steamy novels being narrated lmao. I love that they're dating, but I kinda forgot that they're sort of family lol. Omg she does have a tattoo for him, that’s so cute.

Holy shit Dean is actually trying to kill him. Okay I know she thinks something is wrong with Leo, but she literally abandons her puzzle piece to go and check on him?? What if nothing was wrong dude wtf. Aaaaah they won woohoo. I feel so bad for Dean, he's giving up on everything related to love and is now just mad, this is going to end badly for him :( I need to know what Helion (idk if I have the name right since I was listening to the audiobook) was up to. Are they seriously not even going to do anything against Dean after what he did?! She finally knows that Dean drugged Leo hehe. At least their parents are okay with it lol. The ending was cute, I'm looking forward to reading about the other people in the school, especially Ares. (hide spoiler)]
