Vivian Lau is trying to make her family happy when she agrees to an arranged marriage with billionaire Dante Russo, but he’s not happy with the arrangement at all…until they get to know each other a bit more.
I loved the Twisted series and was so excited to start Kings of Sin, and I’m glad to report the first book did not let me down! I truly feel like Ana Huang’s writing has only improved with each book of hers I’ve read since Twisted Love, and the way she handles tropes and characters is so fun and engaging.
I started out a bit slow because I was new to the world (even though these are a companion to Twisted it still felt different) but once I got pulled in I was HOOKED and I breezed through the rest of the book in a few hours. Also, the groveling at the end? *chef’s kiss*
I can’t wait to start King of Pride soon!
Recommended to anyone, but especially if you like: engagement of convenience; forced proximity; enemies(ish) to lovers
CW: Violence, including gun violence; emotional abuse

The book contains several sexual scenes (all consensual), profanity, and scenes that mention violence.claire_fitzgibbon13's review against another edition
