The reason it's not 4 stars is because Aiden is way to possessive and doesn't understand consent especially in the beginning of the book, nevertheless I really enjoyed it.

3.5

3.5 out of 5 ☆’s.

”Those who don't play think that the king is the most important piece because the game is over when he dies. They don't know that the king is useless without his queen.”

Aiden’s character piqued my interest while reading ”Cruel King” — so I was ecstatic when I found out that the next book in the series was his! 

While I did enjoy ”Deviant King” overall (Note: I was aware of it being a dark bully romance novel — so none of its content took me by surprise) I will say that I wasn’t a big fan of the ending twist…

I did see it coming (so it wasn’t something out of left field) but it was too similar to Levi + Astrid’s situation with their parents (in my opinion) which bothered me. 

(Are all of the characters going to be connected to their love interests in similar ways — or are the Kings just cursed?)
