Crowned: A Dark Mafia Romance (Pageant Book 2) Kindle Edition
The pageant has ended, but for us, the game has only just begun.
Konstantin, Elyah, and Kirill made my life a living hell during the pageant, and now I’m going to return the favor.
They want me and the secret I’m carrying, but they’ll have to prove they’re worthy before I let them call me their queen. It won’t be easy when their pasts come back to haunt us. Pasts that are soaked in blood.
The chase is on, and this time, the prize is more precious than diamonds.
The prize is my heart.
Author’s note: Crowned (Pageant, 2) is the final book in a dark mafia duet. The heroes only have hearts and eyes for the heroine. It contains dark themes, violence, and a romance with ruthlessly possessive men. The story is potentially triggering, so please read responsibly.

I am reviewing now, after the 2nd book because these need to be read in sequence as one book to really give them a fair review.
First off, these are super intense and have extreme triggers, so if the warnings in the blurb and author’s page are things you cannot handle, do not read on. This book has bloody violence, grape, child abuse, and a whole host of other upsetting/criminal situations in addition to intense RH sexual scenes.
Secondly, the FL (Lilia) is on the receiving end of most of the triggers in this book. She is strong and smart, but the redemptive arc of her story doesn’t come until the second book. She will be beat up over and over throughout the first book and part of the second. Like I said, you have to read both to see her get retribution. The end of the second book does begin to get into the fantastical HEA arena, so stop reading before then, about 90%ish, to avoid the mush. It’s unbelievable and you can potentially stop at about the train station scene.
Lastly, the other characters, both the MLs (Kostyra, Elyha, Kirill) and the transient extras, are rather non-developing in comparison to the FL. There is solid foundations but then they just enter hover mode and do not grow or exhibit any interesting traits. They are more interesting in their backstory flashbacks then in the majority of the books. For mafia bosses to be so idle and chaotic, it doesn’t feel part of a bigger organization. I know absolutely nothing about organized crime, but if The Godfather is anything to base it off of, then all these fools are just small potatoes creating issues for real Bratva to need to come clean up.
Overall I “liked” this…? I mean it wasn’t hard to read, has an actual plot, and the characters aren’t shallow wastes, but the TW is intense! I will probably find another by this author for when I am in the mood for a dark mafia RH with gore, but it’s a little too much for me as more than occasional reading.
Until Next Time,
MC
Review
I just….ugh….I don’t even know what to say. OMG these guys are the darkest and sweetest torture. If I could reach into this book and grab them out I would snag all three of them in a heartbeat even the grumpy stubborn a-hole Konstantin lol. Lilith you have absolutely done it again. This book was just as if not even more so freaking fantastic. And seriously heartbreaking and frustrating at times…..ok half of the time.
We pick up right where we left off in book one, and to say the least it was not who we thought it was that found Lilia. But the news we suspected was 100% true and she definitely got her revenge on Konstantin. That definitely makes things a tad bit better. But when the guys do find Lilia it makes you feel every dang emotion possible, jaw dropping awww, panty melting fan yourself fire, anger, sadness, laugh out loud….I mean everything. These guys do an absolute 360 which I’m not complaining about because yeah they need too. Lilia though she definitely does not go easy on these guys no matter how much groveling they do. Sometimes you wanna pat her on the back and say, heck yeah, others you wanna say, oh come on girl just forgive him.
I’m not going to say much more than that because you have got to read this!! It’s an absolute must. And if you’ve read book one then be aware we get a look into Kirill’s dark past. It’s heartbreaking. This Duet was perfectly written and the Men are deliciously Alpha Possessive Protective men and our FMC is beyond strong and fierce!! They’re the perfect compliments to each other. Highly recommend this book and duet.

Não sei bem exatamente o que, mas…
Fiquei feliz em ter todas as respostas que precisava e, apesar de toda a loucura, um final feliz nos termos de um livro dark.

The Heroine: Lilia Aranova. Mafiosos daughter runaway
If I thought the first book was crazy this was 😳🥵😮💨⚠️😎😭🤯🫢🫣 No words but I’ll try and sum this book up.
~~~~~ a few small spoilers ahead if you want to go in blind ~~~~~
After escaping the men of Lilia’s nightmares, she ends up in a small town in northern Italy planning to sell the diamonds she stole from Konstantinos and Esparbé when the time is right with out drawing attention to herself from the Italian Marian, the Russian Bravato or her father.
Eventually everything catches up to her and things take an unexpected turn when Lilia finds out she’s pregnant but dies by know who the father is.
Surprisingly after wanting to kill her the 3 men all want to claim the baby and her.
I mean I fell for all 3 men when they finally show their softer side and force protectiveness . Eventually they draw Lilia into their fold and slowly show her that they all are one family.
Such a sweet HEA ♥️
I don’t think I can review anything else because that would take away from all the twists and turns, the spice that will blow your mind or wet your panties.
Be aware that it had group scenes and a string breeding trope where they all take turns. If that a no go for you this might not be your thing but I absolutely loved this duet 💯


What an amazing end to this duology!!! I loved every minute of it!!!! I loved Lilia she is such a crafty and intelligent women keeping her guys on their toes and outsmarting them at every turn!! Kirill, Elyah and Konstantin I love these psycho’s they become so sweet and protective of Lilia when they found out about the baby and I loved all the moments between them. This book was seriously hot 🔥 Lilith knocked this one out of the park!!! I can’t wait to see what she brings out next!!!
