4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 3,342 ratings

Long live the King

Growing up as the oldest Kingston sibling, I knew what was expected of me.
King Corp. was my legacy, and my siblings were my responsibility.
The world was ours for the taking. For the living.
But I neglected to live it for myself . . . until her.

Daphne Brenner wasn’t meant to be part of the deal.
I never intended to acquire a new assistant with my new hockey team, but here she is.
Constantly challenging me. Continually Intriguing me. Never backing down.

Even if I’m the villain in her fairytale.

He stole my legacy, and now he holds the key to my future.

When he sold our family’s hockey team to Max Kingston, my father destroyed my dreams without a second thought. And that was only his first betrayal.

Now I have to play nice with my new boss in order to carve out my new future.
But when long days and late nights lead to so much more, I realize I’m falling for the intensely arrogant, beautiful man who quietly puts everyone else’s needs before his own.
Playing nice with the enemy isn’t nearly as hard as I thought it would be.

But can I survive falling for this King?

Fall in love with the Kingstons all over again
RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐STEAM: 🔥🔥🔥.5Max Kingston has taken over the Revolution hockey team. Handing over the Kings football team to be run by his sister Scarlet made more sense, so it looks like he has a fledgling hockey team to turn into NHL champions.Too bad not everyone is on the same page, including the former owner's daughter Daphne Brenner. But Max can't shake her off easily, especially since she is on contract to remain as his assistant for twelve months. But that's the least of his worries because he cannot seem to shake off his attraction to his new and sassy assistant.I thought Cade and Scarlet's story was going to be so hard to surpass, but Bella Matthew keeps raising the bar, especially with Max and Daphne's story.Max has always intrigued me since I started reading about the Kingstons. The patriarch who had to claim the head of the family too early, he has always had to live in his father's shadow and raise his brothers and sisters. He did so with little complaint and handled the organized chaos that is his extended family with strength and grace.I love that Daphne throws him off his guard. The normally stoic Max is shaken by this sassy, fearless, and kind woman who is years his junior. She is not what he expects, and he finds himself liking it a lot. I also love that she stands her ground not just with him but also with other men around her. They respect her as they should because she is smart, hard-working, and witty.Their chemistry is just off the charts. Even their adversarial start set fire to my Kindle. The tension is absolutely sizzling.The Kingston family could find 50 more siblings, and I would read them all. Each one brings a certain charm, and I love their interactions. They keep each other in check, they support each other unconditionally, and it is abundantly clear that they love each other very much. Even their significant others and children integrate well into the family and have their siblings' backs.

    Max is a true Alpha male and all that entails! Knows what needs to be done and goes after it! While he made the decision to take over the Revolution instead of his sister to get out of his dad’s shadow he didn’t not think he would meet HER!

    Daphne might be small and not overly confident, her world is ROCKED to its core when her dad literally takes everything and disappears and how she has to come back from that. And front and center of that is Max!!

    My Review 💜💜💜💜💜

    Max & Daphne’s story starts out a little bumpy but turns into a great love.

    Max may be the one that Daphne hates because of her dad stealing her future little does she know that’s the one thing he could never take. Once she gets to know the oldest Kingston she soon finds that’s there more to this man than his tailored suits and board meetings.

    Daphne is the feisty assistant that Max has to put up with for the next year, yet she’s so much more than meets this eye. Passionate - Loving & Fiesty are just some of the ways Max would call her. The passion she has for helping others is amazing in his eyes and has him falling quick for this beautiful woman.

    Sparks fly and desire is lit with this two and they don’t look back.

    I loved the relationship between them with so much respect and love. The Kingston kids are back with the great group text and Becket is the one to push back on this story but soon sees she’s even in the wrong about Daphne.

    Fallen King is a great fast paced book and I loved every page.

    This book took me a little while to get really into but the ending was worth it.
    Daphne is back home after graduating college and ready to take over the charity portion of her families business/hockey team. That is until she walks into the office to find out her father sold the team to the biggest name in town, the Kingstons. Thankfully her father secured her job for the next year, however that is only as the assistant to the hottest Kingston - Max Kingston. Now she has to figure out how to make her dreams come true of the charity without falling for her sexy boss.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Another Matthews hit which was so much more than what it was billed....
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 20, 2022
    Max and D are opposites attract gold.

    I've been waiting for Max's book pretty much since he turned up in Matthews world and his book did not disappoint.

    Max is a straight shooter, overprotective, a work-a-holic, an overachiever and just beautiful. He's also an alpha male with a healthy Ego and a mean devishly good streak.

    Daphne is an ambitious, driven, intellectual, gorgeous woman who is going to give Max a run for his money...

    I always adore the strong women Matthews creates but there's something about D that makes her special... She doesn't know how wonderful she really is.

    When the two meet sparks fly immediately. D does not let Max off easy just because he's the boss, a fact which stuns but impresses Max. As the two get to know eachother the chemistry amps up, the heat is undeniable and the steam goes off.

    This book packs a lot of things in one, the character growth, unwarranted jealousies, boss/employee relationships, family dynamics, steam, tons of steam and so much more... I mean I could go on all night talking about this book.

    The pace of this book is fast, the content devouring and the beauty underneath startling.

    Another Matthews hit which was so much more than what it was billed....

    This is the book I have been waiting for AND it met all of my expectations.
    Max is the oldest Kingston sibling, the head of the family, the majority shareholder, he has the weight of the world on his shoulders with his responsibilities. He has no time for relationship. Enter Miss Brenner heir to the Revolution Hockey Empire.
    Once again Bella’s writing is flawless and the cast of characters and their banter and texting really make this book feel ‘real’ I literally could be at my own family gathering.

    Reviewed in Canada on May 18, 2022
    I was so excited for this book and all I have to say is what a way to wrap up a series!!

    I’ve wanted Max’s story for a while and I was not disappointed. Max buys and becomes owner of a hockey team in hopes of creating his own legacy. He unknowingly took the legacy from his assistant after her father sold the team. Daphne has always known what she wanted to do and won’t let this bump in the road deter her from those plans. She is determined to prove herself to her new boss.

    I love how naturally they came together and the flow of the story line. The chemistry with Daphne and Max was so special and just off the charts. I just love this world and I love getting glimpse’s of all of them. I wish that we could just a book just of their family text messages. This story had me so captivated that I devoured it in just a couple hours and will be gushing about it for a while.

    Do yourself a favour and read these books.
