Review
Fall in love with the whole crew all over again. I absolutely devoured every second of Madship's destructive journey. - MissPetiteBrunette
This was never going to be an easy read, but you've trusted the author thus far, so trust her a little bit longer. It's so worth it. - Soph
But what a finale it was! The pain, the heartache, the anger, and all the MFN Love!! They are MadShip for a reason and their journey is one for the ages. This was the best ending I could've ever hoped for! - Hayley The Lushy Reader
We been on one hell of a rollercoaster ride for the past 6 years and it didn't surprise me that this final ending was going with a Big Bang!! - Jen (BooksCastleIgnite BookBlog)
I wouldn't usually say beautiful to describe a book from our queen of darkness but this truly was in every sense of the word, it can mean many different things from someone's heart, their looks, their souls, it holds many aspects to bishop & madison for me I've loved them from the start and will never stop...their not fire and ice but two flames that burn as one. - Janell Lovell

- Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2022Format: KindleVerified PurchaseTo begin, if you have gotten as far as Ruined Castles then I don’t have to tell you because you already know the deal.
We love Amo and the work she puts out. It’s automatic love, no doubt.
Personally, Amo is one of a few authors that as soon as I pick up her book I finish it the same day. It’s hard to put the world she provides us down.
I finished the book last night at 2am. My brain woke me up at 4am, still processing Madison.
Madison! 😭💕🖤
That’s the review.
I love this series and I have love for every character she has given us. However, I always relate more to Tillie’s character being that she hadn’t grown up with money and she knew what real life struggles consisted of.
This book showed us an evolution of character.
Madison was our spoiled brat.
I felt like this book humanized Madison. I loved her character but I couldn’t relate to her journey in the beginning of the series.
Here in Ruined Castles we see her trying to cope with loss, heartbreak, we see her struggles with her toxic coping mechanisms, we get to feel her pain as she try’s to heal from sexual assault. She is broken down to the point of no return, but it’s in that super gut wrenching moment she wants to end it all that we see her truly start her journey of healing. When Madison describe her numb, yet deep feelings I understood her completely. The raw and painful reality was in some ways comforting to me. The connections she made with every character in this book were beautiful but something about her and Grace, ugh!!!!!
It was very few moments they spent together but when those two had dialogue together it gave me all the feelings. It moved me how two bad ass women came together. No matter the damage, pain, or the type of demons they were dealing within. They understood each other without even having to use their words.
I can’t even fully describe how much I appreciated this book. It made me tear up, smile, hold my heart, hold my breath, breathe, and it made me feel… just feel. 💕
I once told author Runyx that I had always found music a form of therapy because the lyrics or even the simple melody could put into words shit I couldn’t process within my life experience’s. However, I’ve found that special authors also help me cope through the characters they create. Amo did her thing, and what a beautiful ending to this generation. On to the next portal of a world and characters she will create.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2024Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThe prologue to this book summed up my feelings perfectly while I was reading it. From the rollercoaster of emotions that took over me to definitely wanting to slap some sense into Madison and Bishop and to the point where hitting their heads together might wake them up. But I absolutely loved it and there's no other way for me to describe it. (I won't even start on what Bishop did to me in those certain aww moments!).
After getting it ripped to pieces, my heart just melted by the end of the book and the end of this whole series. To see them both so happy after everything they went through just made all that suffering worth it. And getting a little glimpse of the next gen?! Yes, please!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2024Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI have been looking forward to the conclusion of Madship. There’s a lot to take in. Madison is on a bender, coke, alcohol. She’s not making good life choices, shes a hot mess. She feels Bishop is keeping things from her and it’s making her crazy. This is how toxic and combative these two are. Madison mad, goes to NZ to get away from him. He tracks her down, she sees him runs and when he catches her she shoots him, in the arm. Which I thought was hilarious and not at all surprising. He loves her and knows life is not going to be easy but would not have it any other way.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2021Format: KindleVerified PurchaseChaotic. Beautiful. True Masterpiece
Let me start by saying this is the hardest review I’ve ever had to write, it’s bittersweet and I don’t want to say goodbye just yet. The Elite King’s Club Series is one that tests you and takes you on one helluva ride that your not certain your going to live through to see the end, but when you do make it to the end it’s like a world you’ve never seen before, and that’s why this series own my soul.
Ruined Castles is literal perfection, it’s everything you needed but so much more then you could have asked for. We get to see our kings and our Queens. We get to see #Madship my couple that I will rep til the afterlife and even in, their journey to some may be toxic and chaotic but these two and the love they have for each other is just awe inspiring. Love is not easy and it shouldn’t be and these two will make you bleed for them before you can fully understand the love between the two of them and why no one or anyone could ever compete. To love that is messy and chaotic and beautiful that is #Madship y’all own me forever and always.
The Elite King’s Club series is one that you feel like your apart of, one that makes you feel like your in the story with these characters. They are like family so engraved in you that they don’t feel like they are fictional characters, they are just family forever. To Amo Jones thank you Queen for allowing us on this journey with you and writing these couples that have changed the game from day one. We have laughed, cried and screamed and went through every emotion and feeling with this crew, and I will willingly repeat every emotion and feeling you threw at us all over on repeat through my many re reads in the future.
This will never be goodbye for me it’s simply I’ll see you later. Because TEKC is for life and I cannot wait for the madness your kids are about to wreak on y’all, because we know they are….I mean look at their parents. To the series that is one in million it’s been crazy and it’s been one heck of a ride. Thank you for changing my life forever ♥️

4.0 out of 5 stars Madship
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseUne parfaite conclusion pour EKC.
Tout n’est pas centré sur Madship, et Amo fait le lien entre les autres Kings parfaitement. J’aurais aimé avoir plus de développement sur certains points de l’histoire mais probablement parce que je n’avais pas envie de fermer le livre et de quitter ses protagonistes.
En attendant la suite avec la génération suivante ….

5.0 out of 5 stars Once again 🤯
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseAmo Jones did it again. Mind blown! I loved how she finished off the EKC Series with the way she started it...Midship. The OGs of this series. Don't get me wrong Nate and Tillie and Brant's n Saints stories were amazing,(what am I saying; all of Amos stories are that... Amazing) But it was Madison and Bishop who we first met and fell in and out of Love/Hate with.
This book made me laugh, made me cry...alot, but it made me remember why I fell in love with this series in the first place. Can't wait for the next generation books to come out. Love what you do Amo. Don't ever stop, and keep it wicked dark and dirty!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The hardest goodbye
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseHow can you say goodbye to a world and to characters who gave you so much, who took you on the craziest rides, who broke your heart countless time but always managed to piece it back together, who brought you so much love, laughter, tears and anger but you wouldnt change a single thing... well its an impossible goodbye and a goodbye you will never forget... jesus i legit feel like im writing an f'ing eulogy here lol!
Madship... the love i have for this couple is undeniable and everlasting! They have had to overcome some of the hardest things, they made you as mad at them as they were with each other, they had some of the most toxic moments but never absolutely never could you question their love for one another!
This book honestly broke me ive never cried so much and so hard before there was times it felt like Amo was just ripping my heart out of my chest but the queen does that with her writing. You feel every emotion, every moment, every word!
There was a moment with madison and a decision she was about to make (if you read it you will know the one im on about) i swear i could feel my heart stop! I cried so hard with hearbreak, fear and pain for madison.
Bishop there was times i felt like throwing my kindle across the room because i was so mad at him but you just cant stay mad at him cause deep down Bishop motherf*king Hayes is a god with a gentle, loyal side of his heart.
Madship has some of the hottest moments through this series but the hotel room.... hot damn!! And once again Amo makes you question your morals, makes you question if your right in the head because shes out here surprising you with what you are suddenly finding attractive lol!
Amo thank you for giving us the world of The Elite Kings, you took you on the wildest journey with this series and i wholeheartedly enjoyed every single minute and it will hold a very special place in my heart forever! You're writing never fails to amaze me!
Here's to the next generation and the wild ride we are in for with that series.

Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI couldn’t wait for this book to come out and now I’ve read it in one sitting!! It was everything I’ve hoped for, I will miss Madship so much, can’t believe this is the very ending of EKC 😭😭❤️ So excited for the next generation🥰 thanks for this series Amo, it really is my favourite! You’re awesome 😎

5.0 out of 5 stars Still can't get enough of Madship!
Format: KindleVerified Purchase“We are the creation of our own choices, and every single one of us chose each other along the way. That’s what family is, it’s not blood. Even through war, hate , arguments, and destruction, we all always chose each other.”
Bishop was a bad boy with a heart of gold. Yes, he made some mistakes but the way he loved Madison, was loyal and protective towards her and their entire family made my heart melt and he made it easy to forgive him. Each of my loves (Tate, Saint, Brantley, Nate, Abel, Jesse, Tillie, Scarlet, Elena, Eli and so many more) made an appearance. It was so much fun to get a glimpse of the characters you know and love already, each one of them left their own impact on me. (Though I feel that Madison forgave all the kings way too easily and most of them didn’t even properly apologize to her for keeping things from her and replacing her by Tillie her all of a sudden) But above all, I felt so happy that my girl and Madison’s ride or die, Tate found Spyder because God knows she deserved her own HEA! Although this novella is a short one, it packs a real big punch. I’m so sad that this series has ended, I’m feeling a bit nostalgic but I’m also excited to read the future works of Amo Jones especially the upcoming next gen series (I can’t contain my excitement for that)!!!
