King of Wrath

Dante is detectable and delicious, while Vivian is vibrant and… virtuous? Idk. Anyhow, loved the story. The unease I had when Vivian and Dante reach the rip apart was so well written. My stomach dropped for her.So good.

My book came damaged

King of Wrath is my absolute favorite book of the series so far! Dante and Vivian’s arc was well written. I loved the spicy scenes, and seeing characters from the twisted series make appearance was icing on the cake!

Loved it! I can't say that enough. Very well written. Great plot. Fantastic character development. Sublime ending. Couldn't be happier.

Really enjoyed this one. There are quite a few with this premise of forced marriage/proximity where one MC is hoping for the best and the other is a moody problem. What set this one apart for me was the writing, characters, their changes through the story and specifically the character arc for our angry, refuse to love MC. I felt I could connect with the Dante and Vivian despite them being millionaires and crazy affluent, they are genuinely likable. Great spice, fun read.

This book had me on edge. So much so that I had it finished in 24 hours exactly. I was so mad at the way Dante would deny his feelings for Vivian but was so proud of when she finally stood up to him and everyone else. She deserves the world and Dante. Her dad is a donkey and you can tell that money didn't really change her she was just craving approval from her parents. She was a people pleaser and Dante was the exact opposite. He didn't care about how people saw him. He cared about his family and their business. Whenever someone came close to Vivian and Dante thought he was going to lose her he went all crazy scary on them. I loved how all he wanted to do was protect her from everyone including himself.

Dante and Vivian story is fascinating, rich people don’t always have the best live no problems, this story shows they do, but their love story is full of promise, hatred, sadness, happiness, understanding, Vivian’s dad might be horrible for only thinking of himself, and forcing her and Dante into marriage but If it wasn’t because of it, they wouldn’t have met, yet found true love.

I just finished this book a couple of days ago, and let me just say I cried and laughed, all the emotions in one book was such a fun roller coaster.. I’m obsessed with Dante and Vivian’s relationship and more so how they complement eachother. Enemies to lovers is one of my fav tropes an I think Ana really wrote the emotions well.. love, love, love I’m def reading all the kings of sin books now!

Well I’ve been hearing about this series from all my coworkers and now I’ve read it. And I do have to read the rest of the books. It had just enough love story and spice for my liking. Pick it up and enjoy

The love story in King of Wrath was contagious! I completely fell for Dante, his cuteness and the way he was so passionate and protective over Vivian melted my heart. I really enjoyed the mix of revenge, romance, and the strong connection between the characters. It was a good and captivating read. I’m happy I picked it up! 💕📖

This is my first read from Ana Huang and no Im on to book two in the King's if Sin series. I loved the chemistry, tension and how the dark broody MC met someone who could not only challenge him but change him for the better. Its was spicy, had great side characters and I can't wait for more.

⚠️ spoiler-ish warning ⚠️I didn’t expect to love Dante and Vivian so much. The way they both carved a spot into my heart and made way for themselves. The tension between them was everything. I definitely felt the jealousy from Dante and the possessiveness he had for Vivian. After the truth came to light, I was glad they both communicated and was able to make it work (knowing that if they had just communicated more in the beginning, this wouldn’t had happened lol) I love that Dante waited 2 whole hours at her favorite coffee shop just to “run in” to her; and the way he said “I am desperate.” 🥹 He knew he messed up so his groveling took 3 dates but those dates were damn well beautifully planned. To be loved is to be seen 💗"You can't see the stars in New York," Dante said. "So l brought the stars to you.""You've been gone less than a week and I already feel like I've spent an eternity in h*ll!""Tell me what you want, Vivian. Do you want me on my knees?""Per te aspetterei per sempre, amore mio." (I would wait for you forever, my love)“A part of me would always find my way to her. She was my North Star, the brightest jewel in my sky.”

Such a spicy quick read. I love Ana Huang books and her writing. This book was fun and spicy that kept me entertained with the plot. I love how other characters you know and love are thrown in for cameos and the world Ana has made for them. Such a good one with the slow burn of enemies to lovers and Dante Russo is just such a broody dark man, we love to see it.

Dante is what would definitely describe a man who gets down to business but a family man. Vivian reminds me of our parents can do to us when it comes to trauma. What new money does to you when you’re not in favor of decades of money and power. Love the chemistry of enemies to lovers with hint of curiosity about each other. The slow burn of seeing the spark ⚡️ burst into flames 🔥. Seeing what a man truly should do when he messes everything up is Dante’s grovel

The King of Wrath was a tolerable read. I felt the writing style and tone were appropriate for this type of book. I just felt the whole book was pretty tame. I was hoping for a bit more spice and it came up short.I found Vivian, the main character moderately annoying. I also found the idea of a billionaire being blackmailed into marrying someone a big stretch.Bottom line, I thought a few sections of the book were light, sexy, and fun. It is the other sections that were kind of a drag to get thru.

I have some THOUGHTS on this one right here!🥴 So let’s get into it😂🫠First of all, it’s almost 3am so this entire review might be a little incoherent🥴🥲 Secondly, I never noticed how much my chest hurts when I’m reading an enemies to lovers book. I noticed my chest was hurting when I read Twisted Hate, but it hurt with this one too so I guess I felt the MC’s anger and hate?🥴Now in the first bit of the book, the MMC, Dante, REALLY pissed me off🫠 like there’s a difference between being sarcastic and just being plain old rude and he was the latter, especially when it came to the FMC. BIG HOWEVER!! He had an Italian accent so I let it slide🙂‍↕️ I will also say I do understand why he acted the way he did in certain situations, but at the same time he could’ve handled things better.I really enjoyed the FMC, Vivian’s, growth from the start of the book to the end. While she was a doormat for most of the book, the MMC was able to teacher her why accepting how she was treated by certain people was not okay and I loved that.I always tell people to “have the day you deserve,” and by the end of this book, I’m glad certain people began to have the day they deserved. It was very satisfying🙂‍↕️ ANOTHER BIG HOWEVER! I do think some people should have had a worse day than what they deserved (IYKYK)It was interesting to see the different family dynamics of this book. On one side, you had a family that wasn’t close and on the other, you had a family that was close for a time, then power caused the change.This is getting long winded so I’ll wrap this up by saying that the spice was definitely spicing in this book🤭 but it wasn’t AS spicy as I thought it was going to be, which is absolutely fine because it was still enjoyable! I’m a sucker for “good girl”😏🙂‍↕️Overall, I absolutely devoured this and it was so so sooooo good! Highly recommend if you haven’t read this already😅

This book was overall good, with a few areas that could have been better.The beginning of the book started too slowly, in my opinion, without enough relevant plot information to hold my interest well. Once I got to around chapters nine to eleven, the plot was unfolding much better, and the hints of romance were beginning to form into something more. The romance build up was written well, with the hints of it placed thoughtfully in the early plot and blossoming at an appropriate time.The main male character was exactly as I expected him to be, but seeing his personality through the main female character's eyes was even better than expected. As the story progressed, the male's and female's character progressions were frustrating from the viewpoint of the reader (since I wanted them to fix their flaws immediately but that wouldn't make for a very good book) but necessary for the plot all the same. Near the end of the book, the character development for the two main characters took an abrupt turn, so I do wish it would have been a little smoother, but it wasn't a deal-breaker at all.The plot of this book kept my interest (after I got a little further into the book), with parts of this book making me gasp aloud and become even more invested in the characters. I felt the female main character's emotions when she found certain things out near the end of the book, and the male main character's emotions when he felt extremely strong toward certain events.Overall, I would read this book again, and the next book in the series sometime in the future. I did buy it for myself, but I would probably buy it as a gift for someone else as well.

Holy hell, this man is everything! He’s the definition of “touch her and RIP,” and his groveling had me melting. He is the ultimate grumpy billionaire—ruthless, arrogant, and obsessed with control. And the mouth on him? WOW. But when he finds himself in an arranged marriage with Vivian Lau, a woman he barely knows, everything changes. Watching him slowly unravel and admit his feelings is a total treat. His obsession with Vivian is so ridiculously attractive, it’s impossible not to be drawn in.“𝙄 𝙝𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙖 𝙤𝙛 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙩𝙤𝙪𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙚𝙡𝙨𝙚, 𝙤𝙧 𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙚𝙡𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙤𝙪𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙮𝙤𝙪.

“You can’t see the stars in New York, so I brought the stars to you”This freaking book!! It’s my favorite Ana Huang book to date, and that is saying a lot since I love the Twisted series so much. The characters, the plot, the love story, it all just worked so, so, so well for me. Vivian is the absolute epitome of elegance, grace, and poise in the face of having a marriage arranged by her father to Dante Russo. I adored her. She knew an arranged marriage for business would be in her future, but it was still sprung on her fast and she handles it. What I love even more is she has such a fire to her. The woman absolutely destroys Dante verbally when he’s being an ass, as well as literally and figuratively bringing him to his knees in the process. What I love is that he brings out that fire in her and worships her for it. She grows exponentially and I loved seeing it.Speaking of him, let’s talk about Dante Russo. THIS MAN. Never could I imagine a character stealing my heart the way Rhys Larsen did. I thought he would hold the crown of my all time favorite Ana Huang man forever. Dante stole that crown though. He’s protective of the people he loves (which is actually the catalyst of the whole story), witty, charming as hell, romantic, and attentive. The way he notices little things about Vivian, like her tells and how she doesn’t like lamb, and what her favorite flowers are. He lavishes her (he’s a billionaire), but their dates also had so much personal meaning that showed how much he paid attention to who she actually is. I was completely SWOONING over their relationship so much as it developed, especially considering its rocky beginning. Is he a bit morally gray sometimes? Yes. Ask me if I care though, he doesn’t do it unless it’s for a good reason. He grows a whole lot too and made my Italian heart happy. It's the mia cara endearment for me.The third act conflict happens of course, and the way it all played out actually made me not want to throw things. My heart still broke of course, but it was built up from the beginning and expected. I really appreciated how it was resolved too. Nothing was rushed, and everything was talked through and explored in a way that was really satisfying. The ending had me melting into a puddle of goo. I can’t wait for King of Pride now!
