Lets me start by saying it’s probably my fav enemies to lovers by rina kent so far! kingsley and aspen are my parents. I didnt expect to like them this much but oh well 💀 the thing about their story that was so appealing is that they actually were attracted to each other due to their hate for one another😭 ALSO ASPEN IS SO BADASS🤚 and King deserved a kick or two in the nuts for how he treated her for the longest. His hate for her was lowkey uncalled for at first🧍🏻♀️I would say interesting but once again expected plot!

I FUCKING LOVED IT OMG
A GOOD RK BOOK AFTER SO SO LONG
NOT ONLY WAS ASPEN DIFFERENT FROM OTHER RK FMCS, BUT ALSO KINGSLEY!!!!
This was just soo good. They were both adults,mature and real enemies. I loved everything about this book
Aspen actually had a say in their relationship unlike other RK fmcs. It was just soo good
KINGSLEY IS SO FUCKING HOTTTTTT(DILF)
I can't believe I read a good RK book after so long and I even gotta say that this book had all the possessiveness and SMUT (considering the title is literally Empire of *Lust*),it was the least toxic RK book I've ever read and I've read almost every RK book. Also it was the perfect length.
Kingsley and Aspen were PERFECT for each other. EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS BOOK WAS PERFECT. LOVED IT LOVED IT LOVED IT.
Not to mention Gwen and Aspen's relationship

Glad we finally get Aspen and Kingsley’s story, the night Gwen was conceived and everything that happened afterwards. It’s a tragically beautiful story
