The Kingmaker by Kennedy Ryan

4.0

I enjoyed The Kingmaker by Kennedy Ryan. I found the story intriguing and emotional. The writing was concise although I found the pacing a little slow at times.

The relationship between Lennix and Maxim was definitely tense and suspenseful and kept me interested and reading. However, I had a hard time liking Lennix. Certain relationship complications felt overblown and drawn out by her character and it definitely pulled me out of the story at times. I wish we'd had a little more character development with the side characters. In some ways they were more interesting than main.

The spice was on point and definitely made the relationship between Lennix and Maxim more interesting. I wish the timeline had been tighter so we could have been given more Romance scenes. But I'm anxiously hoping for more in the second book. Overall really solid book and I'm excited to continue with book two when it's released.
