And they did it again. K Webster and JD Hollyfield are one of the best story tellers. And with them combined? You're definitely up for a one wild ride!

It was hilarious, crazy, heartbreaking and emotional, rolled into one roller coaster ride. Insta-love is not really my thing. But if written the right way, they definitely would blow my mind. I may not have gotten some oldies references but I love that they included my favorite Friends character into this. I love how the story went and all the adventures. I may have guessed what the twist was, but when it was revealed it sure still cracked my heart open. These two definitely has some knack in sharing stories. I've been skimming thru smuts lately, and I was delighted that it does have just the right amount of it.

I love Frannie and Luca; separately and together. They're like Bonnie and Clyde minus the shoot out. I love Frannie's kind of crazy. Her naivety is endearing and hilarious. Despite her lack of experience, she does know how to work herself out of trouble. Luca on the other hand is just as entertaining. I love how he loves his family and would do anything for them. He's a bad boy with a heart. All the other supporting characters were just as good and helpful to the plotline. Even the three old hags from the East Coast.

This definitely deserves a 5 star. I felt like I was watching my favorite kind of movie, action with a pinch of comedy and a dose of romance. Just perfect!

Title El Malo
Author K Webster
Genre Adult, Contemporary, Mexican Mafia, Romance
Publish date 27 April 2018



Javier Estrada is the king of Mexico.
Evil. Twisted. Psychopathic.
A cruel madman with a killer smile.
And he is my boss.

My duty is to blend in, clean his home, and not make a peep.
I’ve done my job well for years.
Imbedded myself so deep in his world, he’s never going to get me out.

But I am this king’s worst nightmare.
Bad men like him took everything away from me.
I will never forget.
He will pay for the sins of many.
I’ll just bide my time—watching, waiting, calculating—until the time is right.

When I strike, he won’t know what hit him.
The monster who rules Mexico with an iron fist may not bow to anyone…
But I’m not just anyone.

He will bow to me.

I've enjoyed a lot of K Webster books. But recently, i'm starting to feel that I'm losing her touch. That was before I read El Malo.

Webster really has a way to make "bad things" feel right. That's what I felt while reading it. I feel like I should be hating the hero but then I can't help myself to. I liked that there was a plot twist and not just a road to HEA. That's just a bit fictitious to me-- even for a fiction book. I like that the story was fast and slow at the same time. I just felt that the transition of the characters' feelings were a bit of a blur for me.

Personally, I didn't really like Rosa. At least personally. She's not something I wanted to be nor I wanted to be friends with. But I like her part in the story. Even if I wasn't able to connect with her, I'd still wouldn't want another character to replace her. Her characteristics are just right for the story build up. Javier on the other hand is a different story. I'm torn from putting him on my never ending BBF list or if I just want to leave him on the sidelines. He only proves that we should believe in goodness.

Overall, I'd give this 5 stars mainly because it restored my faith in Webster.
