About this ebook

He's going to make her the reluctant queen of his criminal empire… whether she wants it or not.

 

★★★★★ "One of the best dark romances I have read! Brynn Ford has delivered an amazing story of passion and depravity." -Deborah, Amazon Review-

 

Stella

I'm a proudly independent woman.

I'm tough, single, and I run my own business.

But Murphy stumbled into my tattoo shop one night and knocked me right off my feminist feet.

We had a one-night stand, but it turned into a long-distance affair of the heart.

I'm falling for him.

I'm losing myself for a man I hardly know.

But I want him so much that I overlook all the secrets he's keeping.

 

Murphy

I'm the born leader of the O'Shea family.

We make a living stealing women and selling them to new masters.

I've acquired my own plaything, but I have little interest in her easy submission.

I want a challenge.

I want a woman who will stand by my side and make me stronger.

I don't want a pet…I want a wife.


I'm meant to have an arranged marriage in five years, but I'm not waiting.

I met my match when I found Stella.

I want her…and I'm going to take her.

King of Masters is a spin off book from the Four Families trilogy and this is Murphy & Stella's story. As we have seen in the previous trilogy Murphy is the born leader of the O'Shea family, who family deal in human trafficking. They make their living stealing women and selling them to new masters. Stella is a single independent woman who owns her own tattoo business. Murphy and her brothers stumble into her shop late one night and the firworks between the two started. A one night stand turns into a long distance affair via the phone until Murphy decides Stella must be by his side. Murphy doesn't mind telling lies to Stella to get her to Ireland and once Stella finds out what his family is into then all hell breaks loose. Stella is disgusted with Murphy and his family but she also cannot deny the undeniable bond they have. Stella sets out to show Murphy what he is doing is wrong and tries to get through his stubborness. Will Murphy allow his Queen to put an end to it all and allow them to build an honest life for themselves, If you want to know then you best download this book and read it. I loved this book and I love this author, however I felt the end came to quick and we could have been given more information on what Murphy was intending to do.

"We were made to save each other." Contrary to all the recommendations to read the Four Families Trilogy first. I didn't. I still thoroughly gobbled this book up. It is sooooo good! Now I must go back and read the Trilogy! Murphy and Stella. Such an amazing couple. This book is so well written. The story so well told. I actually listened to part of it on monotone Google Play and still felt the emotion and stress and feelings and love bleeding through! This is a must read! Deserves more than 5 stars. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

King of Masters is the 4th and final book in The Four Families series. I am going to say that I devoured the first three books in The Four Families series. So when Brynn came out with this story, I was so excited until it was time to read it. Do you ever get so excited about something and then think, Oh God, what if....? Well, that is what happened; every time I saw it on my Goodreads list, I was like, I want to read, but what if. Finally, I couldn't put it off anymore, and I went for it. I am so mad at myself for waiting. I should know better than to wait on a Brynn Ford book! That is the first lesson. King of Masters was unbelievably wonderful. Murphy is a misunderstood man that has a disgusting family. I won't go into details because I do want you to read this book. But know that no matter what he does, it is for the better good of his soul. When he finds Stella, he becomes selfish and makes her his. He does know what he is doing; that is why he asks for permission from the families. Murphy knows he will have to fight for every ounce of love from Stella. But he is willing to do it. Stella has fallen in love with a man that doesn't exist. He is kind, sexy, and rich. But when she finally gets to meet his family, things change drastically. She is drugged, kidnapped, and hidden away. Stella will fight Murphy every minute of every day for the love she thought she had from him. She will try to find the man she thought she had. But little did she know that Murphy is a king among men.

About the author

Brynn Ford is an author of dark and dirty romance for daring readers. She is a lover of the dark, twisted, and playful and strives to bring the unmentionable aspects of passionate romance into her stories.


Brynn lives in the Midwestern United States with her husband and sons, whom she expects will someday be embarrassed by their mom's books. When she isn't obsessively writing, you may find her binge watching favorite shows while eating far too much junk food or fanatically reading, always seeking to lose herself in the emotional roller coaster of a damn good story.


She is quite the idealist despite her fascination with the wicked and warped aspects of humanity. She’s a firm believer that her characters continue to live on outside the pages in the minds of her readers. Stories don’t just end because there aren’t any more pages to turn.
