Blog Tour Review ~ Empire (Eagle Elite #7) by Rachel Van Dyken

eARC received via Inkslinger PR in exchange for an honest review

Release Date: May 31st 2016

Publisher: Self-published

Description:
I have lost everything. 
My purpose. 
My love. 
My soul. 
Death knocks on my door, I want to answer, but every time I reach for the handle--the promise I made her, brings me back. 
So I breathe. 
I live. 
I hate. 
And I allow the anger to boil beneath the surface of a perfectly indifferent facade. 
I am broken, I dont want to be fixed. 
One last trip to New York, one last chance to redeem a lost part of the mafia family. The Empire is crumbling and it's my job to fix it, my job to mend the pieces that were scattered over thirty years ago. 
The only issue is, the only way to fix, is to do something I swore I'd never do again. 
An arranged marriage. 
Only this time. 
I won't fall. 
Or so help me God, I'll kill her myself. 
My name is Sergio Abandanoto, you think you know my pain, my suffering, my anger, my hate--you have no idea. 
I am the mafia. 
I am the darkness. 
Blood in. No out.

My Opinion

Oh my...

Seriously.

I don't have anything to say that's not a repeat of anything I've stated before when reviewing any of this authors books. Those of you who follow my reviews regularly will know I've read just about every one of RVD's books. She's one of my favourite authors around at the moment and her Eagle Elite series is one of my all time favourite mafia romances. What makes it even better is I get to meet her next month!!

Anyway, Empire is just as good as all of the other books in the series and I'm so glad Rachel decided to continue Sergio's story. It was brilliant. The characters were flawed but worked through everything, the chemistry was off the chart, there was the same dark sense of humour running throughout, and I just didn't want it to end. I'm so glad Andi's memory was kept alive and the struggles Serigo went through felt real. It was a touching book about moving on.

I'm not going to say anything else. If you're a fan of Eagle Elite this book is a must. If you're a fan of RVD, this series is a must. And if you haven't read anything by Rachel you're seriously missing out. Her writing is beautiful, engaging, funny, emotional, and everything I look for in a book.
